Due to the alignment handling, it actually matters where in the code
we add the 4 bytes for the presence bitmap to the length; the first
field is the timestamp with 8 byte alignment so we need to add the
space for the extra vendor namespace presence bitmap *before* we do
any alignment for the fields.
Move the presence bitmap length accounting to the right place to fix
the alignment for the data properly.

The iTXQs stop/wake queue mechanism involves a whole bunch
of locks and this is probably why the call to
ieee80211_wake_txqs is deferred to a tasklet when called from
__ieee80211_wake_queue.
Another advantage of that is that ieee80211_wake_txqs might
call the wake_tx_queue() callback and then the driver may
call mac80211 which will call it back in the same context.
The bug I saw is that when we send a deauth frame as a
station we do:
flush(drop=1)
tx deauth
flush(drop=0)
While we flush we stop the queues and wake them up
immediately after we finished flushing. The problem here is
that the tasklet that de-facto enables the queue may not have
run until we send the deauth. Then the deauth frame is sent
to the driver (which is surprising by itself), but the driver
won't get anything useful from ieee80211_tx_dequeue because
the queue is stopped (or more precisely because
vif->txqs_stopped[0] is true).
Then the deauth is not sent. Later on, the tasklet will run,
but that'll be too late. We'll already have removed all the
vif etc...
Fix this by calling ieee80211_wake_txqs synchronously if we
are not waking up the queues from the driver (we check the
reason to determine that). This makes the code really
convoluted because we may call ieee80211_wake_txqs from
__ieee80211_wake_queue. The latter assumes that
queue_stop_reason_lock has been taken by the caller and
ieee80211_wake_txqs may release the lock to send the frames.

We saw a client that enters / exits power save with

fact that the association supports HT.
This specific client also re-uses a non-zero sequence number

At some point, the client had to send a retransmission of

Previous implementation of SAE authentication in infrastructure BSS was
somewhat restricting and not exactly clean way of handling the two
auth() operations. This ended up removing and re-adding the STA entry
for the AP in the middle of authentication and also messing up
authentication state tracking through the sequence of four
Authentication frames. Furthermore, this did not work if the AP ended up
sending out SAE Confirm (auth trans #2) immediately after SAE Commit
(auth trans #1) before the station had time to transmit its SAE Confirm.
Clean up authentication state handling for the SAE case to allow two
rounds of auth() calls without dropping all state between those
operations. Track peer Confirmed status and mark authentication
completed only once both ends have confirmed.
ieee80211_mgd_auth() check for EBUSY cases is now handling only the
pending association (ifmgd->assoc_data) while all pending authentication
(ifmgd->auth_data) cases are allowed to proceed to allow user space to
start a new connection attempt from scratch even if the previously
requested authentication is still waiting completion. This is needed to
avoid making SAE error cases with retries take excessive amount of time
with no means for the user space to stop that (apart from setting the
netdev down).
As an extra bonus, the end of ieee80211_rx_mgmt_auth() can be cleaned up
to avoid the extra copy of the cfg80211_rx_mlme_mgmt() call for ongoing
SAE authentication since the new ieee80211_mark_sta_auth() helper
function can handle both completion of authentication and updates to the
STA entry under the same condition and there is no need to return from
the function between those operations.

Rekeying PTK keys without "Extended Key ID for Individually Addressed
Frames" did use a procedure not suitable to replace in-use keys and
could caused the following issues:
1) Freeze caused by incoming frames:
If the local STA installed the key prior to the remote STA we still
had the old key active in the hardware when mac80211 switched over
to the new key.
Therefore there was a window where the card could hand over frames
decoded with the old key to mac80211 and bump the new PN (IV) value
to an incorrect high number. When it happened the local replay
detection silently started to drop all frames sent with the new key.
2) Freeze caused by outgoing frames:
If mac80211 was providing the PN (IV) and handed over a clear text
frame for encryption to the hardware prior to a key change the
driver/card could have processed the queued frame after switching
to the new key. This bumped the PN value on the remote STA to an
incorrect high number, tricking the remote STA to discard all frames
we sent later.
3) Freeze caused by RX aggregation reorder buffer:
An aggregation session started with the old key and ending after the
switch to the new key also bumped the PN to an incorrect high number,
freezing the connection quite similar to 1).
4) Freeze caused by repeating lost frames in an aggregation session:
A driver could repeat a lost frame and encrypt it with the new key
while in a TX aggregation session without updating the PN for the
new key. This also could freeze connections similar to 2).
5) Clear text leak:
Removing encryption offload from the card cleared the encryption
offload flag only after the card had deleted the key and we did not
stop TX during the rekey. The driver/card could therefore get
unencrypted frames from mac80211 while no longer be instructed to
encrypt them.
To prevent those issues the key install logic has been changed:
- Mac80211 divers known to be able to rekey PTK0 keys have to set
@NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CAN_REPLACE_PTK0,
- mac80211 stops queuing frames depending on the key during the replace
- the key is first replaced in the hardware and after that in mac80211
- and mac80211 stops/blocks new aggregation sessions during the rekey.
For drivers not setting
@NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CAN_REPLACE_PTK0 the user space must avoid PTK
rekeys if "Extended Key ID for Individually Addressed Frames" is not
being used. Rekeys for mac80211 drivers without this flag will generate a
warning and use an extra call to ieee80211_flush_queues() to both
highlight and try to prevent the issues with not updated drivers.
The core of the fix changes the key install procedure from:
- atomic switch over to the new key in mac80211
- remove the old key in the hardware (stops encryption offloading, fall
back to software encryption with a potential clear text packet leak
in between)
- delete the inactive old key in mac80211
- enable hardware encryption offloading for the new key
to:
- if it's a PTK mark the old key as tainted to drop TX frames with the
outgoing key
- replace the key in hardware with the new one
- atomic switch over to the new (not marked as tainted) key in
mac80211 (which also resumes TX)
- delete the inactive old key in mac80211
With the new sequence the hardware will be unable to decrypt frames
encrypted with the old key prior to switching to the new key in mac80211
and thus prevent PNs from packets decrypted with the old key to be
accounted against the new key.
For that to work the drivers have to provide a clear boundary.
Mac80211 drivers setting @NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CAN_REPLACE_PTK0 confirm
to provide it and mac80211 will then be able to correctly rekey in-use
PTK keys with those drivers.
The mac80211 requirements for drivers to set the flag have been added to
the "Hardware crypto acceleration" documentation section. It drills down
to:
The drivers must not hand over frames decrypted with the old key to
mac80211 once the call to set_key() with %DISABLE_KEY has been
completed. It's allowed to either drop or continue to use the old key
for any outgoing frames which are already in the queues, but it must not
send out any of them unencrypted or encrypted with the new key.
Even with the new boundary in place aggregation sessions with the
reorder buffer are problematic:
RX aggregation session started prior and completed after the rekey could
still dump frames received with the old key at mac80211 after it
switched over to the new key. This is side stepped by stopping all (RX
and TX) aggregation sessions when replacing a PTK key and hardware key
offloading.
Stopping TX aggregation sessions avoids the need to get
the PNs (IVs) updated in frames prepared for the old key and
(re)transmitted after the switch to the new key. As a bonus it improves
the compatibility when the remote STA is not handling rekeys as it
should.
When using software crypto aggregation sessions are not stopped.
Mac80211 won't be able to decode the dangerous frames and discard them
without special handling.

If the driver fails to properly prepare for the channel
switch, mac80211 will disconnect. If the CSA IE had mode
set to 1, it means that the clients are not allowed to send
any Tx on the current channel, and that includes the
deauthentication frame.
Make sure that we don't send the deauthentication frame in
this case.
In iwlwifi, this caused a failure to flush queues since the
firmware already closed the queues after having parsed the
CSA IE. Then mac80211 would wait until the deauthentication
frame would go out (drv_flush(drop=false)) and that would
never happen.

We hit a problem with iwlwifi that was caused by a bug in
mac80211. A bug in iwlwifi caused the firwmare to crash in
certain cases in channel switch. Because of that bug,
drv_pre_channel_switch would fail and trigger the restart
flow.
Now we had the hw restart worker which runs on the system's
workqueue and the csa_connection_drop_work worker that runs
on mac80211's workqueue that can run together. This is
obviously problematic since the restart work wants to
reconfigure the connection, while the csa_connection_drop_work
worker does the exact opposite: it tries to disconnect.
Fix this by cancelling the csa_connection_drop_work worker
in the restart worker.
Note that this can sound racy: we could have:
driver iface_work CSA_work restart_work
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
|
<--drv_cs ---|
<FW CRASH!>
-CS FAILED-->
| |
| cancel_work(CSA)
schedule |
CSA work |
| |
Race between those 2
But this is not possible because we flush the workqueue
in the restart worker before we cancel the CSA worker.
That would be bullet proof if we could guarantee that
we schedule the CSA worker only from the iface_work
which runs on the workqueue (and not on the system's
workqueue), but unfortunately we do have an instance
in which we schedule the CSA work outside the context
of the workqueue (ieee80211_chswitch_done).
Note also that we should probably cancel other workers
like beacon_connection_loss_work and possibly others
for different types of interfaces, at the very least,
IBSS should suffer from the exact same problem, but for
now, do the minimum to fix the actual bug that was actually
experienced and reproduced.

The current mac80211 WDS (4-address mode) can be used to cover most of the
Multi-AP requirements for Data frames per the WFA Multi-AP Specification v1.0.
When configuring AP/STA interfaces in 4-address mode, they are able to function
as fronthaul AP/backhaul STA of Multi-AP device complying below
Tx, Rx requirements except one missing STA Rx requirement added by this patch.
Multi-AP specification section 14.1 describes the following requirements:
Transmitter requirements
------------------------
1. Fronthaul AP
i) When DA!=RA of backhaul STA, must use 4-address format
ii) When DA==RA of backhaul STA, shall use either 3-address
or 4-address format with RA updated with STA MAC
(mac80211 support 4-address format via AP/VLAN interface)
2. Backhaul STA
i) When SA!=TA of backhaul STA, must use 4-address format
ii) When SA==TA of backhaul STA, shall use either 3-address
or 4-address format with RA updated with AP MAC
(mac80211 support 4-address format via use_4addr)
Receiver requirements
---------------------
1. Fronthaul AP
i) When SA!=TA of backhaul STA, must support receiving 4-address
format frames
ii) When SA==TA of backhaul STA, must support receiving both
3-address and 4-address format frames
(mac80211 support both 3-addr & 4-addr via AP/VLAN interface)
2. Backhaul STA
i) When DA!=RA of backhaul STA, must support receiving 4-address
format frames
ii) When DA==RA of backhaul STA, must support receiving both
3-address and 4-address format frames
(mac80211 support only receiving 4-address format via
use_4addr)
This patch addresses the above Rx requirement (ii) for backhaul STA to receive
unicast (DA==RA) 3-address frames in addition to 4-address frames.
The current design doesn't accept 3-address frames when configured in 4-address
mode (use_4addr). Hence add a check to allow 3-address frames when DA==RA of
backhaul STA (adhering to Table 9-26 of IEEE Std 802.11™-2016).
This case was tested with a bridged station interface when associated with
a non-mac80211 based vendor AP implementation using 3-address frames for WDS.
STA was able to support the Multi-AP Rx requirement when DA==RA. No issues,
no loops seen when tested with mac80211 based AP as well.
Verified and confirmed all other Tx and Rx requirements of AP and STA for
Multi-AP respectively. They all work using the current mac80211-WDS design.

Sometimes, it is required to stop the transmissions momentarily and
resume it later; stopping the txqs becomes very critical in scenarios where
the packet transmission has to be ceased completely. For example, during
the hardware restart, during off channel operations,
when initiating CSA(upon detecting a radar on the DFS channel), etc.
The TX queue stop/start logic in mac80211 works well in stopping the TX
when drivers make use of netdev queues, i.e, when Qdiscs in network layer
take care of traffic scheduling. Since the devices implementing
wake_tx_queue can run without Qdiscs, packets will be handed to mac80211
directly without queueing them in the netdev queues.
Also, mac80211 does not invoke any of the
netif_stop_*/netif_wake_* APIs if wake_tx_queue is implemented.
Since the queues are not stopped in this case, transmissions can continue
and this will impact negatively on the operation of the wireless device.
For example,
During hardware restart, we stop the netdev queues so that packets are
not sent to the driver. Since ath10k implements wake_tx_queue,
TX queues will not be stopped and packets might reach the hardware while
it is restarting; this can make hardware unresponsive and the only
possible option for recovery is to reboot the entire system.
There is another problem to this, it is observed that the packets
were sent on the DFS channel for a prolonged duration after radar
detection impacting the channel closing time.
We can still invoke netif stop/wake APIs when wake_tx_queue is implemented
but this could lead to packet drops in network layer; adding stop/start
logic for software TXQs in mac80211 instead makes more sense; the change
proposed adds the same in mac80211.

Make wmm_rule be part of the reg_rule structure. This simplifies the
code a lot at the cost of having bigger memory usage. However in most
cases we have only few reg_rule's and when we do have many like in
iwlwifi we do not save memory as it allocates a separate wmm_rule for
each channel anyway.
This also fixes a bug reported in various places where somewhere the
pointers were corrupted and we ended up doing a null-dereference.

The mod mask for VHT capabilities intends to say that you can override
the number of STBC receive streams, and it does, but only by accident.
The IEEE80211_VHT_CAP_RXSTBC_X aren't bits to be set, but values (albeit
left-shifted). ORing the bits together gets the right answer, but we
should use the _MASK macro here instead.

Pull LED updates from Jacek Anaszewski:
"LED triggers improvements make the biggest part of this pull request.
The most striking ones, that allowed for nice cleanups in the triggers
are:
- centralized handling of creation and removal of trigger sysfs
attributes via attribute group
- addition of module_led_trigger() helper
The other things that need to be mentioned:
New features and improvements to existing LED class drivers:
- lt3593: add DT support, switch to gpiod interface
- lm3692x: support LED sync configuration, change OF calls to fwnode
calls
- apu: modify PC Engines apu/apu2 driver to support apu3
Change in the drivers/net/can/led.c:
- mark led trigger as broken since it's in the way for the further
cleanups. It implements a subset of the netdev trigger and an Ack
is needed from someone who can actually test and confirm that the
netdev trigger works for can devices"

The TXQ teardown code can reference the vif data structures that are
stored in the netdev private memory area if there are still packets on
the queue when it is being freed. Since the TXQ teardown code is run
after the netdevs are freed, this can lead to a use-after-free. Fix this
by moving the TXQ teardown code to earlier in ieee80211_unregister_hw().
