[ Upstream commit e6f4051123fd33901e9655a675b22aefcdc5d277 ]

Commit 33d915d9e8ce ("{nl,mac}80211: allow 4addr AP operation on
crypto controlled devices") has introduced a change which allows
4addr operation on crypto controlled devices (ex: ath10k). This
change has inadvertently impacted the interface combinations logic
on such devices.

General rule is that software interfaces like AP/VLAN should not be
listed under supported interface combinations and should not be
considered during validation of these combinations; because of the
aforementioned change, AP/VLAN interfaces(if present) will be checked
against interfaces supported by the device and blocks valid interface
combinations.

Consider a case where an AP and AP/VLAN are up and running; when a
second AP device is brought up on the same physical device, this AP
will be checked against the AP/VLAN interface (which will not be
part of supported interface combinations of the device) and blocks
second AP to come up.

Add a new API cfg80211_iftype_allowed() to fix the problem, this
API works for all devices with/without SW crypto control.

commit f8b43c5cf4b62a19f2210a0f5367b84e1eff1ab9 upstream.

The noencrypt flag was intended to be set if the "frame was received
unencrypted" according to include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h.  However, the
current behavior is opposite of this.

commit c8a41c6afa27b8c3f61622dfd882b912da9d6721 upstream.

In ieee80211_deliver_skb_to_local_stack intercepts EAPoL frames if
mac80211 is configured to do so and forwards the contents over nl80211.
During this process some additional data is also forwarded, including
whether the frame was received encrypted or not.  Unfortunately just
prior to the call to ieee80211_deliver_skb_to_local_stack, skb-&gt;cb is
cleared, resulting in incorrect data being exposed over nl80211.

<title>mac80211: don't WARN on short WMM parameters from AP</title>

commit 05aaa5c97dce4c10a9e7eae2f1569a684e0c5ced upstream.

In a very similar spirit to commit c470bdc1aaf3 ("mac80211: don't WARN
on bad WMM parameters from buggy APs"), an AP may not transmit a
fully-formed WMM IE. For example, it may miss or repeat an Access
Category. The above loop won't catch that and will instead leave one of
the four ACs zeroed out. This triggers the following warning in
drv_conf_tx()

  wlan0: invalid CW_min/CW_max: 0/0

and it may leave one of the hardware queues unconfigured. If we detect
such a case, let's just print a warning and fall back to the defaults.

Tested with a hacked version of hostapd, intentionally corrupting the
IEs in hostapd_eid_wmm().

[ Upstream commit d2b3fe42bc629c2d4002f652b3abdfb2e72991c7 ]

ieee80211_set_wmm_default() normally sets up the initial CW min/max for
each queue, except that it skips doing this if the driver doesn't
support -&gt;conf_tx. We still end up calling drv_conf_tx() in some cases
(e.g., ieee80211_reconfig()), which also still won't do anything
useful...except it complains here about the invalid CW parameters.

Let's just skip the WARN if we weren't going to do anything useful with
the parameters.

[ Upstream commit 563572340173865a9a356e6bb02579e6998a876d ]

In multiple SSID cases, it takes time to prepare every AP interface
to be ready in initializing phase. If a sta already knows everything it
needs to join one of the APs and sends authentication to the AP which
is not fully prepared at this point of time, AP's channel context
could be NULL. As a result, warning message occurs.

Even worse, if the AP is under attack via tools such as MDK3 and massive
authentication requests are received in a very short time, console will
be hung due to kernel warning messages.

WARN_ON_ONCE() could be a better way for indicating warning messages
without duplicate messages to flood the console.

Johannes: We still need to address the underlying problem, but we
          don't really have a good handle on it yet. Suppress the
          worst side-effects for now.

[ Upstream commit 551842446ed695641a00782cd118cbb064a416a1 ]

ifmsh-&gt;csa is an RCU-protected pointer. The writer context
in ieee80211_mesh_finish_csa() is already mutually
exclusive with wdev-&gt;sdata.mtx, but the RCU checker did
not know this. Use rcu_dereference_protected() to avoid a
warning.

fixes the following warning:
