Helmut Schaa [Fri, 19 Nov 2010 07:11:01 +0000 (08:11 +0100)]
mac80211: Disable hw crypto for GTKs on AP VLAN interfaces

When using AP VLAN interfaces, each VLAN interface should be in its own
broadcast domain. Hostapd achieves this by assigning different GTKs to
different AP VLAN interfaces.

However, mac80211 drivers are not aware of AP VLAN interfaces and as
such mac80211 sends the GTK to the driver in the context of the base AP
mode interface. This causes problems when multiple AP VLAN interfaces
are used since the driver will use the same key slot for the different
GTKs (there's no way for the driver to distinguish the different GTKs
from different AP VLAN interfaces). Thus, only the clients associated
to one AP VLAN interface (the one that was created last) can actually
use broadcast traffic.

Fix this by not programming any GTKs for AP VLAN interfaces into the hw
but fall back to using software crypto. The GTK for the underlying AP
interface is still sent to the driver.

That means, broadcast traffic to stations associated to an AP VLAN
interface is encrypted in software whereas broadcast traffic to
stations associated to the non-VLAN AP interface is encrypted in
hardware.

13 years agocfg80211: Fix regulatory bug with multiple cards and delays
Luis R. Rodriguez [Thu, 18 Nov 2010 05:46:09 +0000 (21:46 -0800)]
cfg80211: Fix regulatory bug with multiple cards and delays

When two cards are connected with the same regulatory domain
if CRDA had a delayed response then cfg80211's own set regulatory
domain would still be the world regulatory domain. There was a bug
on cfg80211's logic such that it assumed that once you pegged a
request as the last request it was already the currently set
regulatory domain. This would mean we would race setting a stale
regulatory domain to secondary cards which had the same regulatory
domain since the alpha2 would match.

We fix this by processing each regulatory request atomically,
and only move on to the next one once we get it fully processed.
In the case CRDA is not present we will simply world roam.

This issue is only present when you have a slow system and the
CRDA processing is delayed. Because of this it is not a known
regression.

Without this fix when a delay is present with CRDA the second card
would end up with an intersected regulatory domain and not allow it
to use the channels it really is designed for. When two cards with
two different regulatory domains were inserted you'd end up
rejecting the second card's regulatory domain request.
This fails with mac80211_hswim's regtest=2 (two requests, same alpha2)
and regtest=3 (two requests, different alpha2) module parameter
options.

This was reproduced and tested against mac80211_hwsim using this
CRDA delayer:

       #!/bin/bash
       echo $COUNTRY >> /tmp/log
       sleep 2
       /sbin/crda.orig

And these regulatory tests:

wl12xx: Unset bssid filter, ssid and bssid from firmware on disassoc

On the disassociation event from the mac80211, the wl12xx driver does not
clear the chipset configuration related to the AP - i.e. it does not perform
a DISCONNECT and then a JOIN with zero SSID and dummy BSSID. Also, it does not
unset the BSSID filter.

Often this is not a problem, as the above is performed upon entering idle
state. But if a scenario arises where a new association is attempted without
cycling through idle state, the new association will fail.

mac80211: fix powersaving clients races

The code to handle powersaving stations has a race:
when the powersave flag is lifted from a station,
we could transmit a packet that is being processed
for TX at the same time right away, even if there
are other frames queued for it. This would cause
frame reordering. To fix this, lift the flag only
under the appropriate lock that blocks TX.

Additionally, the code to allow drivers to block a
station while frames for it are on the HW queue is
never re-enabled the station, so traffic would get
stuck indefinitely. Fix this by clearing the flag
for this appropriately.

Finally, as an optimisation, don't do anything if
the driver unblocks an already unblocked station.

cfg80211: Add nl80211 antenna configuration

Allow setting of TX and RX antennas configuration via nl80211.

The antenna configuration is defined as a bitmap of allowed antennas to use.
This API can be used to mask out antennas which are not attached or should not
be used for other reasons like regulatory concerns or special setups.

Separate bitmaps are used for RX and TX to allow configuring different antennas
for receiving and transmitting. Each bitmap is 32 bit long, each bit
representing one antenna, starting with antenna 1 at the first bit. If an
antenna bit is set, this means the driver is allowed to use this antenna for RX
or TX respectively; if the bit is not set the hardware is not allowed to use
this antenna.

Using bitmaps has the benefit of allowing for a flexible configuration
interface which can support many different configurations and which can be used
for 802.11n as well as non-802.11n devices. Instead of relying on some hardware
specific assumptions, drivers can use this information to know which antennas
are actually attached to the system and derive their capabilities based on
that.

802.11n devices should enable or disable chains, based on which antennas are
present (If all antennas belonging to a particular chain are disabled, the
entire chain should be disabled). HT capabilities (like STBC, TX Beamforming,
Antenna selection) should be calculated based on the available chains after
applying the antenna masks. Should a 802.11n device have diversity antennas
attached to one of their chains, diversity can be enabled or disabled based on
the antenna information.

Non-802.11n drivers can use the antenna masks to select RX and TX antennas and
to enable or disable antenna diversity.

While covering chainmasks for 802.11n and the standard "legacy" modes "fixed
antenna 1", "fixed antenna 2" and "diversity" this API also allows more rare,
but useful configurations as follows:

1) Send on antenna 1, receive on antenna 2 (or vice versa). This can be used to
have a low gain antenna for TX in order to keep within the regulatory
constraints and a high gain antenna for RX in order to receive weaker signals
("speak softly, but listen harder"). This can be useful for building long-shot
outdoor links. Another usage of this setup is having a low-noise pre-amplifier
on antenna 1 and a power amplifier on the other antenna. This way transmit
noise is mostly kept out of the low noise receive channel.
(This would be bitmaps: tx 1 rx 2).

2) Another similar setup is: Use RX diversity on both antennas, but always send
on antenna 1. Again that would allow us to benefit from a higher gain RX
antenna, while staying within the legal limits.
(This would be: tx 0 rx 3).

3) And finally there can be special experimental setups in research and
development even with pre 802.11n hardware where more than 2 antennas are
available. It's good to keep the API simple, yet flexible.

rndis_wlan: workaround poor scanning with BCM4320a

BCM4320a devices seem to sometimes do scanning pretty poorly. This can be
workaround by issuing new scan every second, while not yet connected. By this
new scanning method device catches beacons much faster. Fixes bug #20822.

13 years agorndis_wlan: workaround device not returning bss for currently connected AP

rndis_wlan: workaround device not returning bss for currently connected AP

BCM4320a devices do not return bss for currently connected AP in bss-list,
althought this is required by NDIS specs. Missing bss leads to warning at
net/wireless/sme.c:__cfg80211_connect_result(), WARN_ON(!bss).

Workaround this by crafting bss manually with information we can read from
device. Workaround is only used when device bss-list does not return current
bss, and so is only used with BCM4320a devices and not newer BCM4320b ones.

Fixes bug #20152.
