* NFC: Add basic NCI over SPIFrederic Danis2013-06-141-0/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The NFC Forum defines a transport interface based on Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) for the NFC Controller Interface (NCI). This module implements the SPI transport of NCI, calling SPI module directly to read/write data to NFC controller (NFCC). NFCC driver should provide functions performing device open and close. It should also provide functions asserting/de-asserting interruption to prevent TX/RX race conditions. NFCC driver can also fix a delay between transactions if needed by the hardware.

* NFC: HCI: Implement fw_upload opsEric Lapuyade2013-06-141-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | This is a simple forward to the HCI driver. When driver is done with the operation, it shall directly notify NFC Core by calling nfc_fw_upload_done(). Signed-off-by: Eric Lapuyade <eric.lapuyade@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com>
* NFC: Add firmware upload netlink commandEric Lapuyade2013-06-141-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As several NFC chipsets can have their firmwares upgraded and reflashed, this patchset adds a new netlink command to trigger that the driver loads or flashes a new firmware. This will allows userspace triggered firmware upgrade through netlink. The firmware name or hint is passed as a parameter, and the driver will eventually fetch the firmware binary through the request_firmware API. The cmd can only be executed when the nfc dev is not in use. Actual firmware loading/flashing is an asynchronous operation. Result of the operation shall send a new event up to user space through the nfc dev multicast socket. During operation, the nfc dev is not openable and thus not usable.

* NFC: NCI: Fix skb->dev usageFrederic Danis2013-06-141-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | skb->dev is used for carrying a net_device pointer and not an nci_dev pointer. Remove usage of skb-dev to carry nci_dev and replace it by parameter in nci_recv_frame(), nci_send_frame() and driver send() functions. NfcWilink driver is also updated to use those functions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a STA has a peer that it hasn't seen any tx activity from for a certain length of time, the peer link is expired. This means the inactive STA is removed from the list of peers and that STA is not considered a peer again unless it re-peers. Previously, this inactivity time was always 30 minutes. Now, add it to the mesh configuration and allow it to be configured. Retain 30 minutes as a default value.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently beacon availability upon association is marked by have_beacon flag of assoc_data structure that becomes unavailable when association completes.

| * cfg80211: separate internal SME implementationJohannes Berg2013-06-041-5/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current internal SME implementation in cfg80211 is very mixed up with the MLME handling, which has been causing issues for a long time. There are three things that the implementation has to provide: * a basic SME implementation for nl80211's connect() call (for drivers implementing auth/assoc, which is really just mac80211) and wireless extensions * MLME events for the userspace SME * SME events (connected, disconnected etc.) for all different SME implementation possibilities (driver, cfg80211 and userspace) To achieve these goals it isn't necessary to track the software SME's connection status outside of it's state (which is the part that caused many issues.) Instead, track it only in the SME data (wdev->conn) and in the general case only track whether the wdev is connected or not (via wdev->current_bss.) Also separate the internal implementation to not have callbacks from the SME events, but rather call it from the API functions that the driver (or rather mac80211) calls. This separates the code better. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
| * cfg80211/mac80211: clean up cfg80211 SME APIsJohannes Berg2013-06-041-55/+36Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Do some cleanups in the cfg80211 SME APIs, which are only used by mac80211. Most of these functions get a frame passed, and there isn't really any reason to export multiple functions as cfg80211 can check the frame type instead, do that. Additionally, the API functions have confusing names like cfg80211_send_...() which was meant to indicate that it sends an event to userspace, but gets a bit confusing when there's both TX and RX and they're not all clearly labeled.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If hci_dev_open fails we need to ensure that the corresponding mgmt_set_powered command gets an appropriate response. This patch fixes the missing response by adding a new mgmt_set_powered_failed function that's used to indicate a power on failure to mgmt. Since a situation with the device being rfkilled may require special handling in user space the patch uses a new dedicated mgmt status code for this.

* | cfg80211/mac80211: use cfg80211 wdev mutex in mac80211Johannes Berg2013-05-251-28/+23Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using separate locks in cfg80211 and mac80211 has always caused issues, for example having to unlock in places in mac80211 to call cfg80211, which even needed a framework to make cfg80211 calls after some functions returned etc. Additionally, I suspect some issues people have reported with the cfg80211 state getting confused could be due to such issues, when cfg80211 is asking mac80211 to change state but mac80211 is in the process of telling cfg80211 that the state changed (in another way.)

* | cfg80211: vastly simplify lockingJohannes Berg2013-05-251-3/+2Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Virtually all code paths in cfg80211 already (need to) hold the RTNL. As such, there's little point in having another four mutexes for various parts of the code, they just cause lock ordering issues (and much of the time, the RTNL and a few of the others need thus be held.) Simplify all this by getting rid of the extra four mutexes and just use the RTNL throughout. Only a few code changes were needed to do this and we can get rid of a work struct for bonus points.

Other cpu found it in hash and tries to move it to the end of LRU. This leads to NULL pointer dereference inside of list_move_tail(). Another possible race condition is between inet_frag_lru_move() and inet_frag_lru_del(): move can happens after deletion. This patch initializes LRU list head before adding fragment into hash and inet_frag_lru_move() doesn't touches it if it's empty. I saw this kernel oops two times in a couple of days.

If the 64bit word includes any atomic_t or spinlock_t, we can lose critical concurrent changes. This is happening in af_unix, where unix_sk(sk)->gc_candidate/ gc_maybe_cycle/lock share the same 64bit word. This leads to fatal deadlock, as one/several cpus spin forever on a spinlock that will never be available again. A safer way would be to use a long to store flags. This way we are sure compiler/arch wont do bad things. As we own unix_gc_lock spinlock when clearing or setting bits, we can use the non atomic __set_bit()/__clear_bit(). recursion_level can share the same 64bit location with the spinlock, as it is set only with this spinlock held.

However, userspace needs to be prepared to receive larger-than-mtu-packets (which will also have incorrect l3/l4 checksums), so we cannot simply remove it. The plan is to add a per-queue feature flag that userspace can set when binding the queue. The problem is that in nf_queue, we only have a queue number, not the queue context/configuration settings. This patch should have no impact other than the skb_gso_segment call now being in a function that has access to the queue config data. A new size attribute in nf_queue_entry is needed so nfnetlink_queue can duplicate the entry of the gso skb when segmenting the skb while also copying the route key. The follow up patch adds switch to disable skb_gso_segment when queue config says so. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

This allows rate control to respond faster to sudden link changes and it is also a step towards adding minstrel_ht support to drivers like iwlwifi. When a driver sets IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_RC_TABLE, mac80211 will not fill info->control.rates with rates from the rate table (to preserve explicit overrides by the rate control module). The driver then explicitly calls ieee80211_get_tx_rates to merge overrides from info->control.rates with defaults from the sta rate table.

This patch adds a user-space API to indicate the wireless driver that a critical protocol is about to commence and when it is done, using nl80211 primitives NL80211_CMD_CRIT_PROTOCOL_START and NL80211_CRIT_PROTOCOL_STOP. There can be only on critical protocol session started per registered cfg80211 device. The driver can support this by implementing the cfg80211 callbacks .crit_proto_start() and .crit_proto_stop(). Examples of protocols that can benefit from this are DHCP, EAPOL, APIPA. Exactly how the link can/should be made more reliable is up to the driver. Things to consider are avoid scanning, no multi-channel operations, and alter coexistence schemes.
