nl80211: Add IEEE 802.1X PAE control for station mode
Add a new NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT flag for NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE to
allow user space to indicate that it will control the IEEE 802.1X port
in station mode. Previously, mac80211 was always marking the port
authorized in station mode. This was enough when drop_unencrypted flag
was set. However, drop_unencrypted can currently be controlled only
with WEXT and the current nl80211 design does not allow fully secure
configuration. Fix this by providing a mechanism for user space to
control the IEEE 802.1X port in station mode (i.e., do the same that
we are already doing in AP mode).

wext: fix get_wireless_stats locking
Currently, get_wireless_stats is racy by _design_. This is
because it returns a buffer, which needs to be statically
allocated since it cannot be freed if it was allocated
dynamically. Also, SIOCGIWSTATS and /proc/net/wireless use
no common lock, and /proc/net/wireless accesses are not
synchronised against each other. This is a design flaw in
get_wireless_stats since the beginning.
This patch fixes it by wrapping /proc/net/wireless accesses
with the RTNL so they are protected against each other and
SIOCGIWSTATS. The more correct method of fixing this would
be to pass in the buffer instead of returning it and have
the caller take care of synchronisation of the buffer, but

iwlwifi: fix PS disable status race
iwlwifi internally needs to keep track of whether PS
is enabled in the firmware or not. To do this, it keeps
a bit in the status flags, called STATUS_POWER_PMI.
The code to set this bit looks as follows:
static int iwl_set_power(struct iwl_priv *priv, void *cmd)
{
return iwl_send_cmd_pdu_async(priv, POWER_TABLE_CMD,
sizeof(struct iwl_powertable_cmd),
cmd, NULL);
}
int iwl_power_update_mode(...)
{
[...]
if (final_mode != IWL_POWER_MODE_CAM)
set_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status);
iwl_update_power_cmd(priv, &cmd, final_mode);
cmd.keep_alive_beacons = 0;
if (final_mode == IWL_POWER_INDEX_5)
cmd.flags |= IWL_POWER_FAST_PD;
ret = iwl_set_power(priv, &cmd);
if (final_mode == IWL_POWER_MODE_CAM)
clear_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status);
else
set_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status);
if (priv->cfg->ops->lib->update_chain_flags && update_chains)
priv->cfg->ops->lib->update_chain_flags(priv);
[...]
}
Now, this bit really needs to track what the _firmware_
thinks, not what the driver thinks. Therefore, there is
a race condition here -- the driver sets the bit before
it knows that the async command sent to the card in the
iwl_set_power function has been processed. As a result,
the call to update_chain_flags() may think that the card
has been woken up (PMI bit cleared) while in reality it
hasn't processed the async POWER_TABLE_CMD yet.
This leads to bugs -- any commands the update_chain_flags
function sends can get stuck and subsequent commands also
fail.
The fix is almost trivial: since there's no reason to send
an async command here (in fact, there almost never should
be since many mac80211 callbacks can sleep) just make the
function wait for the card to process the command and then
return and clear the PMI bit.

Additionally, there is no need to wait for a NAV update (probe
delay) when the channel is passively scanned. Remove that extra
time too.
This cuts scanning time from over 7 seconds to under 4 on ar9170,
which is due to the number of channels scanned and ar9170's switch
time being advertised as 135ms (my test now indicates it is about

mac80211: Drop unencrypted frames based on key setup
When using nl80211, we do not have a mechanism to set
sdata->drop_unencrypted. Currently, this breaks code that is supposed
to drop unencrypted frames when protection is expected since
ieee80211_rx_h_decrypt() is optimized to not set rx->key when the
frame is not protected.
This patch modifies ieee80211_rx_h_decrypt() to set rx->key for all
frames and only skip decryption if the frame is not protected. This
allows ieee80211_drop_unencrypted() to correctly drop frames even if
drop_unencrypted is not set.
The changes here are not enough to handle all cases, though. Additional
patches will be needed to implement proper IEEE 802.1X PAE for station
mode (currently, this is only used for AP mode) and some additional
rules are needed for MFP to drop unprotected Robust Action frames prior
to having PTK and IGTK configured.
In theory, the unprotected frames could and should be dropped in
ieee80211_rx_h_decrypt(). However, due to the special case with EAPOL
frames that have to be allowed to be received unprotected even when
keys are set, it is simpler to only set rx->key and allow the
ieee80211_frame_allowed() function to handle the actual dropping of

mac80211: fix scan channel race
When a software scan starts, it first sets sw_scanning, but
leaves the scan_channel "unset" (it currently actually gets
initialised to a default). Now, when something else tries
to (re)configure the hardware in the window between these two
events (after sw_scanning = true, but before scan_channel is
set), the current code switches to the (unset!) scan_channel.
This causes trouble, especially when switching bands and
sending frames on the wrong channel.
To work around this, leave scan_channel initialised to NULL
and use it to determine whether or not a switch to a different
channel should occur (and also use the same condition to check
whether to adjust power for scan or not).
Additionally, avoid reconfiguring the hardware completely when
recalculating idle resulted in no changes, this was the problem
that originally led us to discover the race condition in the
first place, which was helpfully bisected by Pavel. This part
of the patch should not be necessary with the other fixes, but
not calling the ieee80211_hw_config function when we know it to
be unnecessary is certainly a correct thing to do.
Unfortunately, this patch cannot and does not fix the race
condition completely, but due to the way the scan code is
structured it makes the particular problem Pavel discovered
(race while changing channel at the same time as transmitting
frames) go away. To fix it completely, more work especially

This patch checks for this failure in:
ixgbe_probe - So we can log the failure asap. We check right after we

ixgbe_up_complete - To catch failures that may have happened between probe
and when we set up the interrupt that would normally detect the fan failure.

Add barrier() to bnx2_get_hw_{tx|rx}_cons() to fix this issue:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12698
This issue was reported by multiple i386 users. Without barrier(),
the compiled code looks like the following where %eax contains the
address of the tx_cons or rx_cons in the DMA status block. The
status block contents can change between the cmpb and the movzwl
instruction. The driver would crash if the value was not 0xff during
the cmpb instruction, but changed to 0xff during the movzwl
instruction.
6828: 80 38 ff cmpb $0xff,(%eax)
682b: 0f b7 10 movzwl (%eax),%edx
With the added barrier(), the compiled code now looks correct:
683d: 0f b7 10 movzwl (%eax),%edx
6840: 0f b6 c2 movzbl %dl,%eax
6843: 3d ff 00 00 00 cmp $0xff,%eax

p54: call p54_wake_free_queues on every p54_free_skb and p54_rx_frame_sent
Currently queues are stopped when their length reaches their length limit,
but are restarted only when the size of freed range of packet buffer is
not less than the size of the largest possible packet.
This causes permanent queue stop on radio visibility loss in the middle
of ping series: there is plenty of room in the packet buffer, but it is
never freed more than 3 (size of 'best effort' queue) * 288 (ping packet
plus headers) bytes at once.

mac80211: Comment the order of HT RX reorder handler vs. RX handlers
We are currently processing block ack reordering as a separate task
before all other RX handlers. In theory, this is wrong since this step
should be done only after duplicate removal (see Figure 6-1 in IEEE
802.11n). However, moving this needs some work and the current
situation is not too bad. Add a comment here so that this small detail
does not get forgotten and who knows, maybe someone has some extra
time to take a look at cleaning this up.

mac80211: Add a timeout for frames in the RX reorder buffer
This patch allows skbs to be released from the RX reorder buffer in
case they have been there for an unexpectedly long time without us
having received the missing frames before them. Previously, these
frames were only released when the reorder window moved and that could
take very long time unless new frames were received constantly (e.g.,
TCP connections could be killed more or less indefinitely).
This situation should not happen very frequently, but it looks like
there are some scenarious that trigger it for some reason. As such,
this should be considered mostly a workaround to speed up recovery
from unexpected siutation that could result in connections hanging for
long periods of time.
The changes here will only check for timeout situation when adding new
RX frames to the reorder buffer. It does not handle all possible
cases, but seems to help for most cases that could result from common
network usage (e.g., TCP retrying at least couple of times). For more
completely coverage, a timer could be used to periodically check
whether there are any frames remaining in the reorder buffer if no new
frames are received.

iwlagn: disable PS support for iwlagn
Some issues in PS prevent us from supporting it reliably.
When 4965 goes to sleep it stores some data in host DRAM, reads it back
when device wakes up. In 4965 there is a problem that the data is not
correct when ucode starts using it upon wakeup.
For all iwlagn devices there is a problem where command is sent when PS is
enabled. At the moment there is a locking problem with priv->lock not being
