2011-09-13cfg80211/nl80211: Indicate roaming feature capability to userspace.Vivek Natarajan1-0/+3
When the rssi of the current AP drops, both wpa_supplicant and the firmware may do a background scan to find a better AP and try to associate. Since firmware based roaming is faster, inform wpa_supplicant to avoid roaming and let the firmware decide to roam if necessary. For fullmac drivers like ath6kl, it is just enough to provide the ESSID and the firmware will decide on the BSSID. Since it is not possible to do pre-auth during roaming for fullmac drivers, the wpa_supplicant needs to completely disconnect with the old AP and reconnect with the new AP. This consumes lot of time and it is better to leave the roaming decision to the firmware. Signed-off-by: Vivek Natarajan <nataraja@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-08-22mac80211: update mesh peering frame formatThomas Pedersen1-2/+2
This patch updates the mesh peering frames to the format specified in the recently ratified 802.11s standard. Several changes took place to make this happen: - Change RX path to handle new self-protected frames - Add new Peering management IE - Remove old Peer Link IE - Remove old plink_action field in ieee80211_mgmt header These changes by themselves would either break peering, or work by coincidence, so squash them all into this patch.

2011-08-12nl80211/cfg80211: Add extra IE configuration to AP mode setupJouni Malinen1-0/+14
The NL80211_CMD_NEW_BEACON command is, in practice, requesting AP mode operations to be started. Add new attributes to provide extra IEs (e.g., WPS IE, P2P IE) for drivers that build Beacon, Probe Response, and (Re)Association Response frames internally (likely in firmware).

2011-07-21ipv6: make fragment identifications less predictableEric Dumazet2-14/+11

2011-07-13mac80211: allow driver to disconnect after resumeJohannes Berg1-0/+23
In WoWLAN, devices may use crypto keys for TX/RX and could also implement GTK rekeying. If the driver isn't able to retrieve replay counters and similar information from the device upon resume, or if the device isn't responsive due to platform issues, it isn't safe to keep the connection up as GTK rekey messages from during the sleep time could be replayed against it. The only protection against that is disconnecting from the AP. Modifying mac80211 to do that while it is resuming would be very complex and invasive in the case that the driver requires a reconfig, so do it after it has resumed completely. In that case, however, packets might be replayed since it can then only happen after TX/RX are up again, so mark keys for interfaces that need to disconnect as "tainted" and drop all packets that are sent or received with those keys.
