Recently, DMG frequency bands have been extended till 71GHz, so extend
the range check till 20GHz (45-71GHZ), else some channels will be marked
as disabled.

<title>cfg80211: Address some corner cases in scan result channel updating</title>

[ Upstream commit 119f94a6fefcc76d47075b83d2b73d04c895df78 ]

cfg80211_get_bss_channel() is used to update the RX channel based on the
available frame payload information (channel number from DSSS Parameter
Set element or HT Operation element). This is needed on 2.4 GHz channels
where frames may be received on neighboring channels due to overlapping
frequency range.

This might of some use on the 5 GHz band in some corner cases, but
things are more complex there since there is no n:1 or 1:n mapping
between channel numbers and frequencies due to multiple different
starting frequencies in different operating classes. This could result
in ieee80211_channel_to_frequency() returning incorrect frequency and
ieee80211_get_channel() returning incorrect channel information (or
indication of no match). In the previous implementation, this could
result in some scan results being dropped completely, e.g., for the 4.9
GHz channels. That prevented connection to such BSSs.

Fix this by using the driver-provided channel pointer if
ieee80211_get_channel() does not find matching channel data for the
channel number in the frame payload and if the scan is done with 5 MHz
or 10 MHz channel bandwidth. While doing this, also add comments
describing what the function is trying to achieve to make it easier to
understand what happens here and why.

Core regulatory hints didn't set wiphy_idx to WIPHY_IDX_INVALID. Since
the regulatory request is zeroed, wiphy_idx was always implicitly set to
0. This resulted in updating only phy #0.
Fix that.

[ Upstream commit 8442938c3a2177ba16043b3a935f2c78266ad399 ]

The "chandef-&gt;center_freq1" variable is a u32 but "freq" is a u16 so we
are truncating away the high bits.  I noticed this bug because in commit
9cf0a0b4b64a ("cfg80211: Add support for 60GHz band channels 5 and 6")
we made "freq &lt;= 56160 + 2160 * 6" a valid requency when before it was
only "freq &lt;= 56160 + 2160 * 4" that was valid.  It introduces a static
checker warning:

    net/wireless/util.c:1571 ieee80211_chandef_to_operating_class()
    warn: always true condition '(freq &lt;= 56160 + 2160 * 6) =&gt; (0-u16max &lt;= 69120)'

But really we probably shouldn't have been truncating the high bits
away to begin with.

nl80211_update_ft_ies() tried to validate NL80211_ATTR_IE with
is_valid_ie_attr() before dereferencing it, but that helper function

[ Upstream commit 188f60ab8e787fcbb5ac9d64ede23a0070231f09 ]

Commit 9757235f451c, "nl80211: correct checks for
NL80211_MESHCONF_HT_OPMODE value") relaxed the range for the HT
operation field in meshconf, while also adding checks requiring
the non-greenfield and non-ht-sta bits to be set in certain
circumstances.  The latter bit is actually reserved for mesh BSSes
according to Table 9-168 in 802.11-2016, so in fact it should not
be set.

wpa_supplicant sets these bits because the mesh and AP code share
the same implementation, but authsae does not.  As a result, some
meshconf updates from authsae which set only the NONHT_MIXED
protection bits were being rejected.

In order to avoid breaking userspace by changing the rules again,
simply accept the values with or without the bits set, and mask
off the reserved bit to match the spec.

While in here, update the 802.11-2012 reference to 802.11-2016.

commit a7cfebcb7594a24609268f91299ab85ba064bf82 upstream.

There's currently no limit on wiphy names, other than netlink
message size and memory limitations, but that causes issues when,
for example, the wiphy name is used in a uevent, e.g. in rfkill
where we use the same name for the rfkill instance, and then the
buffer there is "only" 2k for the environment variables.

This was reported by syzkaller, which used a 4k name.

Limit the name to something reasonable, I randomly picked 128.
