cfg80211: avoid holding the RTNL when calling the driver

2021-01-26T10:55:50+00:00

Currently, _everything_ in cfg80211 holds the RTNL, and if you
have a slow USB device (or a few) you can get some bad lock
contention on that.

Fix that by re-adding a mutex to each wiphy/rdev as we had at
some point, so we have locking for the wireless_dev lists and
all the other things in there, and also so that drivers still
don't have to worry too much about it (they still won't get
parallel calls for a single device).

Then, we can restrict the RTNL to a few cases where we add or
remove interfaces and really need the added protection. Some
of the global list management still also uses the RTNL, since
we need to have it anyway for netdev management, but we only
hold the RTNL for very short periods of time here.

cfg80211: remove WDS code

Remove all the code that was there to configure WDS interfaces,
now that there's no way to reach it anymore.

cfg80211: only allow S1G channels on S1G band

2020-10-08T08:41:24+00:00

As discovered by syzbot, cfg80211 was accepting S1G
channel widths on non-S1G bands. Add a check for this, and
consolidate the 1MHz frequency check as it ends up being a
subset of the others.

nl80211: support setting S1G channels

2020-09-18T10:31:17+00:00

S1G channels have a single width defined per frequency, so
derive it from the channel flags with
ieee80211_s1g_channel_width().

Also support setting an S1G channel where control frequency may
differ from operating, and add some basic validation to
ensure the control channel is with the operating.

cfg80211: treat 6 GHz channels as valid regardless of capability

2020-05-31T09:27:08+00:00

If a 6 GHz channel exists, then we can probably safely assume that
the device actually supports it, and then it should support most
bandwidths.

This will probably need to be extended to check the interface type
and then dig into the HE capabilities for that though, to have the
correct bandwidth check.
