mac80211: convert HW flags to unsigned long bitmap

2015-06-10T14:05:36Z

As we're running out of hardware capability flags pretty quickly, convert them to use the regular test_bit() style unsigned long bitmaps. This introduces a number of helper functions/macros to set and to test the bits, along with new debugfs code. The occurrences of an explicit __clear_bit() are intentional, the drivers were never supposed to change their supported bits on the fly. We should investigate changing this to be a per-frame flag.

mac80211: remove obsolete sentence from documentation

2015-06-09T19:48:20Z

FIF_PROMISC_IN_BSS was removed in commit df1404650ccb ("mac80211: remove support for IFF_PROMISC"). Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: rename single hw-scan flag to follow naming convention

2015-06-02T18:32:00Z

The naming convention is to always have the flags prefixed with IEEE80211_HW_ so they're 'namespaced', make this flag follow it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: remove short slot/short preamble incapable flags

2015-06-02T18:28:58Z

There are no drivers setting IEEE80211_HW_2GHZ_SHORT_SLOT_INCAPABLE or IEEE80211_HW_2GHZ_SHORT_PREAMBLE_INCAPABLE, so any code using the two flags is dead; it's also exceedingly unlikely that any new driver could ever need to set these flags. The wcn36xx code is almost certainly broken, but this preserves the previous behaviour. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: stop using pointers as userspace cookies

2015-06-02T11:07:59Z

Even if the pointers are really only accessible to root and used pretty much only by wpa_supplicant, this is still not great; even for debugging it'd be easier to have something that's easier to read and guaranteed to never get reused. With the recent change to make mac80211 create an ack_skb for the mgmt-tx path this becomes possible, only the client probe method needs to also allocate an ack_skb, and we can store the cookie in that skb.

mac80211: move TX PN to public part of key struct

2015-06-02T09:16:35Z

For drivers supporting TSO or similar features, but that still have PN assignment in software, there's a need to have some memory to store the current PN value. As mac80211 already stores this and it's somewhat complicated to add a per-driver area to the key struct (due to the dynamic sizing thereof) it makes sense to just move the TX PN to the keyconf, i.e. the public part of the key struct. As TKIP is more complicated and we won't able to offload it in this way right now (fast-xmit is skipped for TKIP unless the HW does it all, and our hardware needs MMIC calculation in software) I've not moved that for now - it's possible but requires exposing a lot of the internal TKIP state. As an bonus side effect, we can remove a lot of code by assuming the keyseq struct has a certain layout - with BUILD_BUG_ON to verify it. This might also improve performance, since now TX and RX no longer share a cacheline. Reviewed-by: Emmanuel Grumbach Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: add missing drv_priv description for TXQ struct

2015-05-20T13:04:53Z

The kernel-doc description for the drv_priv member of struct ieee80211_txq was missing, leading to errors. Add a suitable description to fix that. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: extend get_key() to return PN for all ciphers

2015-05-06T11:30:00Z

For ciphers not supported by mac80211, the function currently doesn't return any PN data. Fix this by extending the driver's get_key_seq() a little more to allow moving arbitrary PN data. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: extend get_tkip_seq to all keys

2015-05-06T11:29:59Z

Extend the function to read the TKIP IV32/IV16 to read the IV/PN for all ciphers in order to allow drivers with full hardware crypto to properly support this. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: make LED trigger names const

2015-05-05T12:21:55Z

This is just a code cleanup, make the LED trigger names const as they're not expected to be modified by drivers. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg
