mac80211: fix virtual interfaces vs. injection

Currently, virtual interface pointers passed to drivers might be
from monitor interfaces and as such completely uninitialised
because we do not tell the driver about monitor interfaces when
those are created. Instead of passing them, we should therefore
indicate to the driver that there is no information; do that by
passing a NULL value and adjust drivers to cope with it.

As a result, some mac80211 API functions also need to cope with
a NULL vif pointer so drivers can still call them unconditionally.

Also, when injecting frames we really don't want to pass NULL all
the time, if we know we are the source address of a frame and have
a local interface for that address, we can to use that interface.
This also helps with processing the frame correctly for that
interface which will help the 802.11w implementation. It's not
entirely correct for VLANs or WDS interfaces because there the MAC
address isn't unique, but it's already a lot better than what we
do now.

Finally, when injecting without a matching local interface, don't
assign sequence numbers at all.

cfg80211: Add new wireless regulatory infrastructure

This adds the new wireless regulatory infrastructure. The
main motiviation behind this was to centralize regulatory
code as each driver was implementing their own regulatory solution,
and to replace the initial centralized code we have where:

* only 3 regulatory domains are supported: US, JP and EU
* regulatory domains can only be changed through module parameter
* all rules were built statically in the kernel

We now have support for regulatory domains for many countries
and regulatory domains are now queried through a userspace agent
through udev allowing distributions to update regulatory rules
without updating the kernel.

Each driver can regulatory_hint() a regulatory domain
based on either their EEPROM mapped regulatory domain value to a
respective ISO/IEC 3166-1 country code or pass an internally built
regulatory domain. We also add support to let the user set the
regulatory domain through userspace in case of faulty EEPROMs to
further help compliance.

Support for world roaming will be added soon for cards capable of
this.

For more information see:

http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Regulatory/CRDA

For now we leave an option to enable the old module parameter,
ieee80211_regdom, and to build the 3 old regdomains statically
(US, JP and EU). This option is CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY.
These old static definitions and the module parameter is being
scheduled for removal for 2.6.29. Note that if you use this
you won't make use of a world regulatory domain as its pointless.
If you leave this option enabled and if CRDA is present and you
use US or JP we will try to ask CRDA to update us a regulatory
domain for us.

16 years agonet: fix scheduling of dst_gc_task by __dst_free
Benjamin Thery [Fri, 12 Sep 2008 23:16:37 +0000 (16:16 -0700)]
net: fix scheduling of dst_gc_task by __dst_free

The dst garbage collector dst_gc_task() may not be scheduled as we
expect it to be in __dst_free().

Indeed, when the dst_gc_timer was replaced by the delayed_work
dst_gc_work, the mod_timer() call used to schedule the garbage
collector at an earlier date was replaced by a schedule_delayed_work()
(see commit 86bba269d08f0c545ae76c90b56727f65d62d57f).

But, the behaviour of mod_timer() and schedule_delayed_work() is
different in the way they handle the delay.

mod_timer() stops the timer and re-arm it with the new given delay,
whereas schedule_delayed_work() only check if the work is already
queued in the workqueue (and queue it (with delay) if it is not)
BUT it does NOT take into account the new delay (even if the new delay
is earlier in time).
schedule_delayed_work() returns 0 if it didn't queue the work,
but we don't check the return code in __dst_free().

If I understand the code in __dst_free() correctly, we want dst_gc_task
to be queued after DST_GC_INC jiffies if we pass the test (and not in
some undetermined time in the future), so I think we should add a call
to cancel_delayed_work() before schedule_delayed_work(). Patch below.

Or we should at least test the return code of schedule_delayed_work(),
and reset the values of dst_garbage.timer_inc and dst_garbage.timer_expires
back to their former values if schedule_delayed_work() failed.
Otherwise the subsequent calls to __dst_free will test the wrong values
and assume wrong thing about when the garbage collector is supposed to
be scheduled.

dst_gc_task() also calls schedule_delayed_work() without checking
its return code (or calling cancel_scheduled_work() first), but it
should fine there: dst_gc_task is the routine of the delayed_work, so
no dst_gc_work should be pending in the queue when it's running.
