mac80211: mesh: embedd mesh_paths and mpp_paths into ieee80211_if_mesh

2022-01-04T14:11:49+00:00

Syzbot hit NULL deref in rhashtable_free_and_destroy(). The problem was
in mesh_paths and mpp_paths being NULL.

mesh_pathtbl_init() could fail in case of memory allocation failure, but
nobody cared, since ieee80211_mesh_init_sdata() returns void. It led to
leaving 2 pointers as NULL. Syzbot has found null deref on exit path,
but it could happen anywhere else, because code assumes these pointers are
valid.

Since all ieee80211_*_setup_sdata functions are void and do not fail,
let's embedd mesh_paths and mpp_paths into parent struct to avoid
adding error handling on higher levels and follow the pattern of others
setup_sdata functions

have_higher_than_11mbit is only set to true some of the time in
ieee80211_get_rates() but is checked all of the time.  So
have_higher_than_11mbit needs to be initialized to false.

mac80211: fix locking in ieee80211_start_ap error path

mac80211: do drv_reconfig_complete() before restarting all

2021-12-14T10:22:20+00:00

When we reconfigure, the driver might do some things to complete
the reconfiguration. It's strange and could be broken in some
cases because we restart other works (e.g. remain-on-channel and
TX) before this happens, yet only start queues later.

Change this to do the reconfig complete when reconfiguration is
actually complete, not when we've already started doing other
things again.

For iwlwifi, this should fix a race where the reconfig can race
with TX, for ath10k and ath11k that also use this it won't make
a difference because they just start queues there, and mac80211
also stopped the queues and will restart them later as before.

mac80211: mark TX-during-stop for TX in in_reconfig

2021-12-14T10:22:02+00:00

Mark TXQs as having seen transmit while they were stopped if
we bail out of drv_wake_tx_queue() due to reconfig, so that
the queue wake after this will make them catch up. This is
particularly necessary for when TXQs are used for management
packets since those TXQs won't see a lot of traffic that'd
make them catch up later.

mac80211: update channel context before station state

2021-12-14T10:21:39+00:00

Currently channel context is updated only after station got an update about
new assoc state, this results in station using the old channel context.

Fix this by moving the update channel context before updating station,
enabling the driver to immediately use the updated channel context in
the new assoc state.

mac80211: agg-tx: don't schedule_and_wake_txq() under sta->lock

2021-12-14T10:19:43+00:00

When we call ieee80211_agg_start_txq(), that will in turn call
schedule_and_wake_txq(). Called from ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb()
this is done under sta->lock, which leads to certain circular
lock dependencies, as reported by Chris Murphy:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/CAJCQCtSXJ5qA4bqSPY=oLRMbv-irihVvP7A2uGutEbXQVkoNaw@mail.gmail.com

In general, ieee80211_agg_start_txq() is usually not called
with sta->lock held, only in this one place. But it's always
called with sta->ampdu_mlme.mtx held, and that's therefore
clearly sufficient.

Change ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb() to also call it without the
sta->lock held, by factoring it out of ieee80211_remove_tid_tx()
(which is only called in this one place).

This breaks the locking chain and makes it less likely that
we'll have similar locking chain problems in the future.
