mac80211: set IEEE80211_TX_CTRL_PORT_CTRL_PROTO for nl80211 TX

2020-03-26T14:54:12+00:00

When a frame is transmitted via the nl80211 TX rather than as a
normal frame, IEEE80211_TX_CTRL_PORT_CTRL_PROTO wasn't set and
this will lead to wrong decisions (rate control etc.) being made
about the frame; fix this.

mac80211: mark station unauthorized before key removal

2020-03-26T14:52:25+00:00

If a station is still marked as authorized, mark it as no longer
so before removing its keys. This allows frames transmitted to it
to be rejected, providing additional protection against leaking
plain text data during the disconnection flow.

mac80211: Check port authorization in the ieee80211_tx_dequeue() case

2020-03-26T14:52:14+00:00

mac80211 used to check port authorization in the Data frame enqueue case
when going through start_xmit(). However, that authorization status may
change while the frame is waiting in a queue. Add a similar check in the
dequeue case to avoid sending previously accepted frames after
authorization change. This provides additional protection against
potential leaking of frames after a station has been disconnected and
the keys for it are being removed.

mac80211: drop data frames without key on encrypted links

2020-03-26T14:49:24+00:00

If we know that we have an encrypted link (based on having had
a key configured for TX in the past) then drop all data frames
in the key selection handler if there's no key anymore.

This fixes an issue with mac80211 internal TXQs - there we can
buffer frames for an encrypted link, but then if the key is no
longer there when they're dequeued, the frames are sent without
encryption. This happens if a station is disconnected while the
frames are still on the TXQ.

Detecting that a link should be encrypted based on a first key
having been configured for TX is fine as there are no use cases
for a connection going from with encryption to no encryption.
With extended key IDs, however, there is a case of having a key
configured for only decryption, so we can't just trigger this
behaviour on a key being configured.

mac80211: Do not send mesh HWMP PREQ if HWMP is disabled

2020-03-11T08:04:14+00:00

When trying to transmit to an unknown destination, the mesh code would
unconditionally transmit a HWMP PREQ even if HWMP is not the current
path selection algorithm.

mac80211: rx: avoid RCU list traversal under mutex

2020-02-24T09:42:38+00:00

local->sta_mtx is held in __ieee80211_check_fast_rx_iface().
No need to use list_for_each_entry_rcu() as it also requires
a cond argument to avoid false lockdep warnings when not used in
RCU read-side section (with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST).
Therefore use list_for_each_entry();

mac80211: Remove a redundant mutex unlock

2020-02-21T09:59:36+00:00

The below-mentioned commit changed the code to unlock *inside*
the function, but previously the unlock was *outside*. It failed
to remove the outer unlock, however, leading to double unlock.

Fix this.

mac80211: fix wrong 160/80+80 MHz setting

2020-02-14T08:54:12+00:00

Before this patch, STA's would set new width of 160/80+80 MHz based on AP capability only.
This is wrong because STA may not support > 80MHz BW.
Fix is to verify STA has 160/80+80 MHz capability before increasing its width to > 80MHz.

The "support_80_80" and "support_160" setting is based on:
"Table 9-272 — Setting of the Supported Channel Width Set subfield and Extended NSS BW
Support subfield at a STA transmitting the VHT Capabilities Information field"

mac80211: consider more elements in parsing CRC

2020-02-07T10:44:02+00:00

We only use the parsing CRC for checking if a beacon changed,
and elements with an ID > 63 cannot be represented in the
filter. Thus, like we did before with WMM and Cisco vendor
elements, just statically add these forgotten items to the
CRC:
 - WLAN_EID_VHT_OPERATION
 - WLAN_EID_OPMODE_NOTIF

I guess that in most cases when VHT/HE operation change, the HT
operation also changed, and so the change was picked up, but we
did notice that pure operating mode notification changes were
ignored.

mac80211: fix quiet mode activation in action frames

2020-02-07T10:44:02+00:00

Previously I intended to ignore quiet mode in probe response, however
I ended up ignoring it instead for action frames. As a matter of fact,
this path isn't invoked for probe responses to start with. Just revert
this patch.
