14 years agowext: fix alignment problem in serializing 'struct iw_point'

wext: fix alignment problem in serializing 'struct iw_point'

wext: fix alignment problem in serializing 'struct iw_point'

This fixes a typo in the definition of the serialized length of struct iw_point:
 a) wireless.h is exported to userspace, the typo causes IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN
    to be 12 on 64-bit, and 8 on 32-bit systems (causing misalignment);
 b) in compat-64 mode iwe_stream_add_point() memcpys overlap (see below).

The second case in  in compat-64 mode looks like (variable names are as in
include/net/iw_handler.h:iwe_stream_add_point()):

 point_len = IW_EV_COMPAT_POINT_LEN = 8
 lcp_len   = IW_EV_COMPAT_LCP_LEN   = 4
 2nd memcpy: IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN - IW_EV_LCP_PK_LEN = 12 - 4 = 8

 IW_EV_LCP_PK_LEN
 <-------------->                *---> 'extra' data area
 +-------+-------+-------+-------+---------------+------- ...-+
 | len   | cmd   |length | flags |  (empty) -> extra      ... |
 +-------+-------+-------+-------+---------------+------- ...-+
    2       2       2       2          4

     lcp_len
 <-------------->                <-!! OVERLAP !!>
 <--1st memcpy--><------- 2nd memcpy ----------->
                                 <---- 3rd memcpy ------- ... >
 <--------- point_len ---------->

This case could cause overrun whenever iw_point.length < 4.
The other two cases are -
 * 32-bit systems: IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN - IW_EV_LCP_PK_LEN =  8 - 4 = 4,
   the second memcpy copies exactly the 4 required bytes;
 * 64-bit systems: IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN - IW_EV_LCP_PK_LEN = 12 - 4 = 8,
   the second memcpy copies a superfluous (but non overlapping) 4 bytes.

The patch changes IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN to be 8, so that in all 3 cases always only
the requested iw_point.{length,flags} (both __u16) are copied, avoiding overrrun
(compat-64) and superfluous copy (64-bit). In addition, the userspace header is
sanitized (in agreement with version 30 of the wireless tools).

generated by ath9k for A-MPDU frames:

1. Rate control feedback is carried on the first frame of an aggregate
that is either ACKed, or has execeeded the software retry count and is
considered failed. However, ath9k would incorrectly assume the aggregate
had the length 1 if one of these conditions did not apply to the first
frame of the aggregate, but instead a later frame. This fix therefor
copies the bf_nframes field of the buffer in the same manner as the rates
field of the tx status.

2. Sometimes the ampdu_len and ampdu_ack_len fields of the tx status was
left uninitialized eventhough the IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU flag was set.
This is now avoid by setting flag and fields in the same place.

3. Even if a frame has been selected for aggregation by mac80211 and
marked with the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU flag it can sometimes happen that
ath9k transmits the frame without aggregation. In these cases the

approved values. It modifies some values, as well as adds many new constants
in preparation for updating mesh code to the current 802.11s drafts. ANA
numbers were taken from:
https://mentor.ieee.org/802.11/dcn/09/11-09-0031-12-0000-ana-database-assigned-number-authority.xls

A few notes are in order:
1. This will break backwards compatibility with existing Linux kernels as
over-the-air constants have changed.
2. Some old and obsolete constants have been retained for now as the mesh code
itself hasn't been updated yet to the new 802.11s draft. This was desired to
keep the existing mesh scheme working until it can be updated. Adding the
approved values is the first step in updating the mesh code.
3. Obsolete constants have been clearly marked.
4. All ANA approved 802.11s constants have been added.

reason of the warning were races in mac80211, currently hopefully fixed.

Not reseting device when performing scan is bad for two reasons.

When forcing reset from iwl_check_stuck_queue(), in case of fail,
reset will be repeated until scan finish. But since firmware is in bad
shape, scan only finish after scan_check work (about 7s). So we will
delay the reset, what is not good behaviour.

When forcing reset from iwl_recover_from_statistics(), we will not
