nl80211: support 4-way handshake offloading for WPA/WPA2-PSK in AP mode

2020-07-31T07:27:02Z

Let drivers advertise support for AP-mode WPA/WPA2-PSK 4-way handshake offloading with a new NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_4WAY_HANDSHAKE_AP_PSK flag. Extend use of NL80211_ATTR_PMK attribute indicating it might be passed as part of NL80211_CMD_START_AP command, and contain the PSK (which is the PMK, hence the name). The driver is assumed to handle the 4-way handshake by itself in this case, instead of relying on userspace.

cfg80211/mac80211: add connected to auth server to meshconf

2020-07-31T07:24:24Z

Besides information about num of peerings and gate connectivity, the mesh formation byte also contains a flag for authentication server connectivity, that currently cannot be set in the mesh conf. This patch adds this capability, which is necessary to implement 802.1X authentication in mesh mode.

cfg80211/mac80211: add mesh_param "mesh_nolearn" to skip path discovery

2020-07-31T07:24:23Z

Currently, before being able to forward a packet between two 802.11s nodes, both a PLINK handshake is performed upon receiving a beacon and then later a PREQ/PREP exchange for path discovery is performed on demand upon receiving a data frame to forward. When running a mesh protocol on top of an 802.11s interface, like batman-adv, we do not need the multi-hop mesh routing capabilities of 802.11s and usually set mesh_fwding=0. However, even with mesh_fwding=0 the PREQ/PREP path discovery is still performed on demand. Even though in this scenario the next hop PREQ/PREP will determine is always the direct 11s neighbor node. The new mesh_nolearn parameter allows to skip the PREQ/PREP exchange in this scenario, leading to a reduced delay, reduced packet buffering and simplifies HWMP in general. mesh_nolearn is still rather conservative in that if the packet destination is not a direct 11s neighbor, it will fall back to PREQ/PREP path discovery. For normal, multi-hop 802.11s mesh routing it is usually not advisable to enable mesh_nolearn as a transmission to a direct but distant neighbor might be worse than reaching that same node via a more robust / higher throughput etc. multi-hop path.

cfg80211: support bigger kek/kck key length

2020-05-31T09:27:24Z

With some newer AKMs, the KCK and KEK are bigger, so allow that if the driver advertises support for it. In addition, add a new attribute for the AKM so we can use it for offloaded rekeying.

cfg80211: add and expose HE 6 GHz band capabilities

2020-05-31T09:26:36Z

These capabilities cover what would otherwise be transported in HT/VHT capabilities, but only a subset thereof that is actually needed on 6 GHz with HE already present. Expose the capabilities to userspace, drivers are expected to set them as using the 6 GHz band (currently) requires HE capability.
