If cfg80211_pmsr_process_abort() moves all the PMSR requests that
need to be freed into a local list before aborting and freeing them.
As a result, it is possible that cfg80211_pmsr_complete() will run in
parallel and free the same PMSR request.

Fix it by freeing the request in cfg80211_pmsr_complete() only if it
is still in the original pmsr list.

If resume fails, we should shut down all interfaces as the
hardware is probably dead. This was/is already done now in
mac80211, but we need to change that due to locking issues,
so move it here and do it without the wiphy lock held.

When I moved around the code here, I neglected that we could still
call register_netdev() or similar without the wiphy mutex held,
which then calls cfg80211_register_wdev() - that's also done from
cfg80211_register_netdevice(), but the phy80211 symlink creation
was only there. Now, the symlink isn't needed for a *pure* wdev,
but a netdev not registered via cfg80211_register_wdev() should
still have the symlink, so move the creation to the right place.

<title>cfg80211: call cfg80211_leave_ocb when switching away from OCB</title>

If the userland switches back-and-forth between NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB and
NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC via send_msg(NL80211_CMD_SET_INTERFACE), there is a
chance where the cleanup cfg80211_leave_ocb() is not called. This leads
to initialization of in-use memory (e.g. init u.ibss while in-use by
u.ocb) due to a shared struct/union within ieee80211_sub_if_data:

struct ieee80211_sub_if_data {
    ...
    union {
        struct ieee80211_if_ap ap;
        struct ieee80211_if_vlan vlan;
        struct ieee80211_if_managed mgd;
        struct ieee80211_if_ibss ibss; // &lt;- shares address
        struct ieee80211_if_mesh mesh;
        struct ieee80211_if_ocb ocb; // &lt;- shares address
        struct ieee80211_if_mntr mntr;
        struct ieee80211_if_nan nan;
    } u;
    ...
}

Therefore add handling of otype == NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB, during
cfg80211_change_iface() to perform cleanup when leaving OCB mode.

<title>cfg80211: mitigate A-MSDU aggregation attacks</title>

<id>2b8a1fee3488c602aca8bea004a087e60806a5cf</id>
<content type='text'>
Mitigate A-MSDU injection attacks (CVE-2020-24588) by detecting if the
destination address of a subframe equals an RFC1042 (i.e., LLC/SNAP)
header, and if so dropping the complete A-MSDU frame. This mitigates
known attacks, although new (unknown) aggregation-based attacks may
remain possible.

This defense works because in A-MSDU aggregation injection attacks, a
normal encrypted Wi-Fi frame is turned into an A-MSDU frame. This means
the first 6 bytes of the first A-MSDU subframe correspond to an RFC1042
header. In other words, the destination MAC address of the first A-MSDU
subframe contains the start of an RFC1042 header during an aggregation
attack. We can detect this and thereby prevent this specific attack.
For details, see Section 7.2 of "Fragment and Forge: Breaking Wi-Fi
Through Frame Aggregation and Fragmentation".

Note that for kernel 4.9 and above this patch depends on "mac80211:
properly handle A-MSDUs that start with a rfc1042 header". Otherwise
this patch has no impact and attacks will remain possible.

Properly parse A-MSDUs whose first 6 bytes happen to equal a rfc1042
header. This can occur in practice when the destination MAC address
equals AA:AA:03:00:00:00. More importantly, this simplifies the next
patch to mitigate A-MSDU injection attacks.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core:

   - bpf:
        - allow bpf programs calling kernel functions (initially to
          reuse TCP congestion control implementations)
        - enable task local storage for tracing programs - remove the
          need to store per-task state in hash maps, and allow tracing
          programs access to task local storage previously added for
          BPF_LSM
        - add bpf_for_each_map_elem() helper, allowing programs to walk
          all map elements in a more robust and easier to verify fashion
        - sockmap: support UDP and cross-protocol BPF_SK_SKB_VERDICT
          redirection
        - lpm: add support for batched ops in LPM trie
        - add BTF_KIND_FLOAT support - mostly to allow use of BTF on
          s390 which has floats in its headers files
        - improve BPF syscall documentation and extend the use of kdoc
          parsing scripts we already employ for bpf-helpers
        - libbpf, bpftool: support static linking of BPF ELF files
        - improve support for encapsulation of L2 packets

   - xdp: restructure redirect actions to avoid a runtime lookup,
     improving performance by 4-8% in microbenchmarks

   - xsk: build skb by page (aka generic zerocopy xmit) - improve
     performance of software AF_XDP path by 33% for devices which don't
     need headers in the linear skb part (e.g. virtio)

   - nexthop: resilient next-hop groups - improve path stability on
     next-hops group changes (incl. offload for mlxsw)

   - ipv6: segment routing: add support for IPv4 decapsulation

   - icmp: add support for RFC 8335 extended PROBE messages

   - inet: use bigger hash table for IP ID generation

   - tcp: deal better with delayed TX completions - make sure we don't
     give up on fast TCP retransmissions only because driver is slow in
     reporting that it completed transmitting the original

   - tcp: reorder tcp_congestion_ops for better cache locality

   - mptcp:
        - add sockopt support for common TCP options
        - add support for common TCP msg flags
        - include multiple address ids in RM_ADDR
        - add reset option support for resetting one subflow

   - udp: GRO L4 improvements - improve 'forward' / 'frag_list'
     co-existence with UDP tunnel GRO, allowing the first to take place
     correctly even for encapsulated UDP traffic

   - micro-optimize dev_gro_receive() and flow dissection, avoid
     retpoline overhead on VLAN and TEB GRO

   - use less memory for sysctls, add a new sysctl type, to allow using
     u8 instead of "int" and "long" and shrink networking sysctls

   - veth: allow GRO without XDP - this allows aggregating UDP packets
     before handing them off to routing, bridge, OvS, etc.

   - allow specifing ifindex when device is moved to another namespace

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core:

   - bpf:
        - allow bpf programs calling kernel functions (initially to
          reuse TCP congestion control implementations)
        - enable task local storage for tracing programs - remove the
          need to store per-task state in hash maps, and allow tracing
          programs access to task local storage previously added for
          BPF_LSM
        - add bpf_for_each_map_elem() helper, allowing programs to walk
          all map elements in a more robust and easier to verify fashion
        - sockmap: support UDP and cross-protocol BPF_SK_SKB_VERDICT
          redirection
        - lpm: add support for batched ops in LPM trie
        - add BTF_KIND_FLOAT support - mostly to allow use of BTF on
          s390 which has floats in its headers files
        - improve BPF syscall documentation and extend the use of kdoc
          parsing scripts we already employ for bpf-helpers
        - libbpf, bpftool: support static linking of BPF ELF files
        - improve support for encapsulation of L2 packets

   - xdp: restructure redirect actions to avoid a runtime lookup,
     improving performance by 4-8% in microbenchmarks

   - xsk: build skb by page (aka generic zerocopy xmit) - improve
     performance of software AF_XDP path by 33% for devices which don't
     need headers in the linear skb part (e.g. virtio)

   - nexthop: resilient next-hop groups - improve path stability on
     next-hops group changes (incl. offload for mlxsw)

   - ipv6: segment routing: add support for IPv4 decapsulation

   - icmp: add support for RFC 8335 extended PROBE messages

   - inet: use bigger hash table for IP ID generation

   - tcp: deal better with delayed TX completions - make sure we don't
     give up on fast TCP retransmissions only because driver is slow in
     reporting that it completed transmitting the original

   - tcp: reorder tcp_congestion_ops for better cache locality

   - mptcp:
        - add sockopt support for common TCP options
        - add support for common TCP msg flags
        - include multiple address ids in RM_ADDR
        - add reset option support for resetting one subflow

   - udp: GRO L4 improvements - improve 'forward' / 'frag_list'
     co-existence with UDP tunnel GRO, allowing the first to take place
     correctly even for encapsulated UDP traffic

   - micro-optimize dev_gro_receive() and flow dissection, avoid
     retpoline overhead on VLAN and TEB GRO

   - use less memory for sysctls, add a new sysctl type, to allow using
     u8 instead of "int" and "long" and shrink networking sysctls

   - veth: allow GRO without XDP - this allows aggregating UDP packets
     before handing them off to routing, bridge, OvS, etc.

   - allow specifing ifindex when device is moved to another namespace

   - netfilter:
        - nft_socket: add support for cgroupsv2
        - nftables: add catch-all set element - special element used to
          define a default action in case normal lookup missed
        - use net_generic infra in many modules to avoid allocating
          per-ns memory unnecessarily

   - xps: improve the xps handling to avoid potential out-of-bound
     accesses and use-after-free when XPS change race with other
     re-configuration under traffic

   - add a config knob to turn off per-cpu netdev refcnt to catch
     underflows in testing

Harald Arnesen reported [1] a deadlock at reboot time, and after
he captured a stack trace a picture developed of what's going on:

The distribution he's using is using iwd (not wpa_supplicant) to
manage wireless. iwd will usually use the "socket owner" option
when it creates new interfaces, so that they're automatically
destroyed when it quits (unexpectedly or otherwise). This is also
done by wpa_supplicant, but it doesn't do it for the normal one,
only for additional ones, which is different with iwd.

Anyway, during shutdown, iwd quits while the netdev is still UP,
i.e. IFF_UP is set. This causes the stack trace that Linus so
nicely transcribed from the pictures:

cfg80211_destroy_iface_wk() takes wiphy_lock
 -&gt; cfg80211_destroy_ifaces()
  -&gt;ieee80211_del_iface
    -&gt;ieeee80211_if_remove
      -&gt;cfg80211_unregister_wdev
        -&gt;unregister_netdevice_queue
          -&gt;dev_close_many
            -&gt;__dev_close_many
              -&gt;raw_notifier_call_chain
                -&gt;cfg80211_netdev_notifier_call
and that last call tries to take wiphy_lock again.

In commit a05829a7222e ("cfg80211: avoid holding the RTNL when
calling the driver") I had taken into account the possibility of
recursing from cfg80211 into cfg80211_netdev_notifier_call() via
the network stack, but only for NETDEV_UNREGISTER, not for what
happens here, NETDEV_GOING_DOWN and NETDEV_DOWN notifications.

Additionally, while this worked still back in commit 78f22b6a3a92
("cfg80211: allow userspace to take ownership of interfaces"), it
missed another corner case: unregistering a netdev will cause
dev_close() to be called, and thus stop wireless operations (e.g.
disconnecting), but there are some types of virtual interfaces in
wifi that don't have a netdev - for that we need an additional
call to cfg80211_leave().

So, to fix this mess, change cfg80211_destroy_ifaces() to not
require the wiphy_lock(), but instead make it acquire it, but
only after it has actually closed all the netdevs on the list,
and then call cfg80211_leave() as well before removing them
from the driver, to fix the second issue. The locking change in
this requires modifying the nl80211 call to not get the wiphy
lock passed in, but acquire it by itself after flushing any
potentially pending destruction requests.
