wireless: allow 40 MHz on world roaming channels 12/13

2012-11-12T15:26:06Z

When in world roaming mode, allow 40 MHz to be used on channels 12 and 13 so that an AP that is, e.g., using HT40+ on channel 9 (in the UK) can be used. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: Eddie Chapman Tested-by: Eddie Chapman Acked-by: Luis R. Rodriguez Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: verify that skb data is present

2012-10-26T20:52:42Z

A number of places in the mesh code don't check that the frame data is present and in the skb header when trying to access. Add those checks and the necessary pskb_may_pull() calls. This prevents accessing data that doesn't actually exist. To do this, export ieee80211_get_mesh_hdrlen() to be able to use it in mac80211. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

wireless: drop invalid mesh address extension frames

2012-10-26T20:52:41Z

The mesh header can have address extension by a 4th or a 5th and 6th address, but never both. Drop such frames in 802.11 -> 802.3 conversion along with any frames that have the wrong extension. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by: Javier Cardona Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

cfg80211: fix initialization of chan->max_reg_power

2012-10-18T15:18:48Z

A few places touch chan->max_power based on updated tx power rules, but forget to do the same to chan->max_reg_power. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

cfg80211: fix antenna gain handling

2012-10-18T15:18:48Z

No driver initializes chan->max_antenna_gain to something sensible, and the only place where it is being used right now is inside ath9k. This leads to ath9k potentially using less tx power than it can use, which can decrease performance/range in some rare cases. Rather than going through every single driver, this patch initializes chan->orig_mag in wiphy_register(), ignoring whatever value the driver left in there. If a driver for some reason wishes to limit it independent from regulatory rulesets, it can do so internally. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

cfg80211/mac80211: avoid state mishmash on deauth

2012-10-15T15:21:34Z

Avoid situation when we are on associate state in mac80211 and on disassociate state in cfg80211. This can results on crash during modules unload (like showed on this thread: http://marc.info/?t=134373976300001&r=1&w=2) and possibly other problems.

John W. Linville says: ==================== Here is another batch of updates intended for 3.7... Highlights include an hci_connect re-write in Bluetooth, HCI/LLC layer separation in NFC, removal of the raw pn544 NFC driver, NFC LLCP raw sockets support, improved IBSS auth frame handling in mac80211, full-MAC AP mode notification support in mac80211, a lot of attention paid to brcmfmac, and the usual level of updates to iwlwifi, ath9k, mwifiex, and rt2x00, and various other updates. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
