2008-09-15cfg80211: Add new wireless regulatory infrastructureLuis R. Rodriguez
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. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2008-09-12pkt_sched: Add multiqueue scheduler supportAlexander Duyck
This patch is intended to add a qdisc to support the new tx multiqueue architecture by providing a band for each hardware queue. By doing this it is possible to support a different qdisc per physical hardware queue. This qdisc uses the skb->queue_mapping to select which band to place the traffic onto. It then uses a round robin w/ a check to see if the subqueue is stopped to determine which band to dequeue the packet from.

2008-09-12tcp_ipv6: fix use of uninitialized memoryVegard Nossum
inet6_rsk() is called on a struct request_sock * before we have checked whether the socket is an ipv6 socket or a ipv6- mapped ipv4 socket. The access that triggers this is the inet_rsk(rsk)->inet6_rsk_offset dereference in inet6_rsk(). This is arguably not a critical error as the inet6_rsk_offset is only used to compute a pointer which is never really used (in the code path in question) anyway. But it might be a latent error, so let's fix it. Spotted by kmemcheck.

2008-09-12net: fix scheduling of dst_gc_task by __dst_freeBenjamin Thery
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.

The vlan devices are not reading the gso max size of the parent device. As a result devices that do not support 64K max gso size are currently failing.

2008-09-11mac80211: move spectrum management code outJohannes Berg
Like the HT code, this doesn't depend on the STA-mode implementation and can be handled entirely independently.

2008-09-11mac80211: make BA session handling independent of STA modeJohannes Berg
The aggregation handling isn't dependent on anything related to our STA-mode implementation, and doesn't need to depend on it for frame processing. This patch moves the relevant code to ht.c and adds a hook in rx.c. For now, the relevant action frames are only processed in STA/IBSS modes, but that's now something we can easily change.

2008-09-11mac80211: reorder frame code in mlmeJohannes Berg
This reorders all frame sending functions to be at the top of the file.

2008-09-11mac80211: refactor and move scan RX codeJohannes Berg
This patch refactors some code and moves the scan RX function to scan.c. More importantly, however, it changes it so that the MLME's beacon/probe_resp functions aren't invoked when scanning so that we can remove a "if (scanning)" conditions from two places.

2008-09-11mac80211: stop queues before carrier offTomas Winkler
During testing of the disassociation fixes, Tomas noticed that it was possible to run into a situation where you'd suddenly get a few "wlan0: dropped frame to <AP> (unauthorized port)" messages and I found this to be due to the AP's sta_info having been removed but netif_carrier_off not having removed/stopped traffic yet. To avoid that, stop the queue for the interface (and avoid bringing them up when another vif scans when they weren't up.)

This patch moves disassociation code from ieee80211_set_associated to ieee80211_set_disassoc. To reduce code duplication, it introduces the ieee80211_sta_send_apinfo function.

This patch makes the MLME cleanly disassociate from the current BSS when leaving it for a new one. This is not just nicer to the old AP (we're leaving it, might as well tell it!) but also required for some drivers that keep track of the station we're associated with, they'd get confused because they'd think we are associated with two APs.

2008-09-11mac80211: fix action frame length checksJohannes Berg
The action frame length checks are one too small, there's not just an action code as the comment makes you believe, there's a category code too, and the category code is required in each action frame (hence part of IEEE80211_MIN_ACTION_SIZE).

2008-09-11mac80211: BSS info: check channel firstJohannes Berg
When we receive information about a BSS we check at some point whether or not we think we're allowed to use the channel it is on, but we do that fairly late. I don't think we should do it that late, so do it earlier to avoid doing IBSS/mesh stuff on that channel and then getting confused because it's disabled.

2008-09-10ipv6: On interface down/unregister, purge icmp routes too.David S. Miller
Johannes Berg reported that occaisionally, bringing an interface down or unregistering it would hang for up to 30 seconds. Using debugging output he provided it became clear that ICMP6 routes were the culprit. The problem is that ICMP6 routes live in their own world totally separate from normal ipv6 routes. So there are all kinds of special cases throughout the ipv6 code to handle this. While we should really try to unify all of this stuff somehow, for the time being let's fix this by purging the ICMP6 routes that match the device in question during rt6_ifdown().

2008-09-09ipsec: Use RCU-like construct for saved state within a walkHerbert Xu
Now that we save states within a walk we need synchronisation so that the list the saved state is on doesn't disappear from under us. As it stands this is done by keeping the state on the list which is bad because it gets in the way of the management of the state life-cycle. An alternative is to make our own pseudo-RCU system where we use counters to indicate which state can't be freed immediately as it may be referenced by an ongoing walk when that resumes.
