cfg80211: validate channel settings across interfaces Currently, there's a problem that affects regulatory enforcement and connection stability, in that it is possible to switch the channel while connected to a network or joined to an IBSS. The problem comes from the fact that we only validate the channel against the current interface's type, not against any other interface. Thus, you have any type of interface up, additionally bring up a monitor mode interface and switch the channel on the monitor. This will obviously also switch the channel on the other interface. The problem now is that if you do that while sending beacons for IBSS mode, you can switch to a disabled channel or a channel that doesn't allow beaconing. Combined with a managed mode interface connected to an AP instead of an IBSS interface, you can easily break the connection that way. To fix this, this patch validates any channel change with all available interfaces, and disallows such changes on secondary interfaces if another interface is connected to an AP or joined to an IBSS.

nl80211/cfg80211: support VHT channel configuration Change nl80211 to support specifying a VHT (or HT) using the control channel frequency (as before) and new attributes for the channel width and first and second center frequency. The old channel type is of course still supported for HT. Also change the cfg80211 channel definition struct to support these by adding the relevant fields to it (and removing the _type field.) This also adds new helper functions: - cfg80211_chandef_create to create a channel def struct given the control channel and channel type, - cfg80211_chandef_identical to check if two channel definitions are identical - cfg80211_chandef_compatible to check if the given channel definitions are compatible, and return the wider of the two This isn't entirely complete, but that doesn't matter until we have a driver using it. In particular, it's missing - regulatory checks on the usable bandwidth (if that even makes sense) - regulatory TX power (database can't deal with it) - a proper channel compatibility calculation for the new channel types Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

cfg80211: 802.11p OCB mode handling This patch adds new iface type (NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB) representing the OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode. When establishing a connection to the network a cfg80211_join_ocb function is called (particular nl80211_command is added as well). A mandatory parameters during the ocb_join operation are 'center frequency' and 'channel width (5/10 MHz)'. Changes done in mac80211 are minimal possible required to avoid many warnings (warning: enumeration value 'NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB' not handled in switch) during compilation. Full functionality (where needed) is added in the following patch. Signed-off-by: Rostislav Lisovy <rostislav.lisovy@fel.cvut.cz> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

The old channel type is of course still supported for HT. Also change the cfg80211 channel definition struct to support these by adding the relevant fields to it (and removing the _type field.) This also adds new helper functions: - cfg80211_chandef_create to create a channel def struct given the control channel and channel type, - cfg80211_chandef_identical to check if two channel definitions are identical - cfg80211_chandef_compatible to check if the given channel definitions are compatible, and return the wider of the two This isn't entirely complete, but that doesn't matter until we have a driver using it. In particular, it's missing - regulatory checks on the usable bandwidth (if that even makes sense) - regulatory TX power (database can't deal with it) - a proper channel compatibility calculation for the new channel types Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

cfg80211: Enable GO operation on additional channels Allow GO operation on a channel marked with IEEE80211_CHAN_GO_CONCURRENT iff there is an active station interface that is associated to an AP operating on the same channel in the 2 GHz band or the same UNII band (in the 5 GHz band). This relaxation is not allowed if the channel is marked with IEEE80211_CHAN_RADAR. Note that this is a permissive approach to the FCC definitions, that require a clear assessment that the device operating the AP is an authorized master, i.e., with radar detection and DFS capabilities. It is assumed that such restrictions are enforced by user space. Furthermore, it is assumed, that if the conditions that allowed for the operation of the GO on such a channel change, i.e., the station interface disconnected from the AP, it is the responsibility of user space to evacuate the GO from the channel.

The old channel type is of course still supported for HT. Also change the cfg80211 channel definition struct to support these by adding the relevant fields to it (and removing the _type field.) This also adds new helper functions: - cfg80211_chandef_create to create a channel def struct given the control channel and channel type, - cfg80211_chandef_identical to check if two channel definitions are identical - cfg80211_chandef_compatible to check if the given channel definitions are compatible, and return the wider of the two This isn't entirely complete, but that doesn't matter until we have a driver using it. In particular, it's missing - regulatory checks on the usable bandwidth (if that even makes sense) - regulatory TX power (database can't deal with it) - a proper channel compatibility calculation for the new channel types Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

The problem comes from the fact that we only validate the channel against the current interface's type, not against any other interface. Thus, you have any type of interface up, additionally bring up a monitor mode interface and switch the channel on the monitor. This will obviously also switch the channel on the other interface. The problem now is that if you do that while sending beacons for IBSS mode, you can switch to a disabled channel or a channel that doesn't allow beaconing. Combined with a managed mode interface connected to an AP instead of an IBSS interface, you can easily break the connection that way. To fix this, this patch validates any channel change with all available interfaces, and disallows such changes on secondary interfaces if another interface is connected to an AP or joined to an IBSS.

Right now, this struct contains just the control channel and channel type, but for VHT this will change.

cfg80211: add P2P Device abstraction In order to support using a different MAC address for the P2P Device address we must first have a P2P Device abstraction that can be assigned a MAC address. This abstraction will also be useful to support offloading P2P operations to the device, e.g. periodic listen for discoverability. Currently, the driver is responsible for assigning a MAC address to the P2P Device, but this could be changed by allowing a MAC address to be given to the NEW_INTERFACE command. As it has no associated netdev, a P2P Device can only be identified by its wdev identifier but the previous patches allowed using the wdev identifier in various APIs, e.g. remain-on-channel.

nl80211/cfg80211: enable DFS for IBSS mode To use DFS in IBSS mode, userspace is required to react to radar events. It can inform nl80211 that it is capable of doing so by adding a NL80211_ATTR_HANDLE_DFS attribute when joining the IBSS. This attribute is supplied to let the kernelspace know that the userspace application can and will handle radar events, e.g. by intiating channel switches to a valid channel. DFS channels may only be used if this attribute is supplied and the driver supports it. Driver support will be checked even if a channel without DFS will be initially joined, as a DFS channel may be chosen later.

A mandatory parameters during the ocb_join operation are 'center frequency' and 'channel width (5/10 MHz)'. Changes done in mac80211 are minimal possible required to avoid many warnings (warning: enumeration value 'NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB' not handled in switch) during compilation.

cfg80211: introduce cfg80211_get_chan_state Helper function for finding out which channel is used by a given interface. An exclusive channel can be used only by a single interface. This is mainly for non-fixed channel IBSS handling. Signed-off-by: Michal Kazior <michal.kazior@tieto.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

cfg80211: add P2P Device abstraction In order to support using a different MAC address for the P2P Device address we must first have a P2P Device abstraction that can be assigned a MAC address. This abstraction will also be useful to support offloading P2P operations to the device, e.g. periodic listen for discoverability. Currently, the driver is responsible for assigning a MAC address to the P2P Device, but this could be changed by allowing a MAC address to be given to the NEW_INTERFACE command. As it has no associated netdev, a P2P Device can only be identified by its wdev identifier but the previous patches allowed using the wdev identifier in various APIs, e.g. remain-on-channel.

cfg80211: remove NL80211_FEATURE_P2P_DEVICE_NEEDS_CHANNEL There's no driver using this flag and consequently no userspace application is actually looking at it. As it seems unlikely for any driver to start using it, remove it and the (very little) code that used it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
