* {nl,mac}80211: add rssi to mesh candidatesBob Copeland2018-11-091-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | When peering is in userspace, some implementations may want to control which peers are accepted based on RSSI in addition to the information elements being sent today.

* {nl,mac}80211: add dot11MeshConnectedToMeshGate to meshconfBob Copeland2018-11-091-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | When userspace is controlling mesh routing, it may have better knowledge about whether a mesh STA is connected to a mesh gate than the kernel mpath table. Add dot11MeshConnectedToMeshGate to the mesh config so that such applications can explicitly signal that a mesh STA is connected to a gate, which will then be advertised in the beacon.

* cfg80211: add peer measurement with FTM initiator APIJohannes Berg2018-11-091-0/+263
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new "peer measurement" API, that can be used to measure certain things related to a peer. Right now, only implement FTM (flight time measurement) over it, but the idea is that it'll be extensible to also support measuring the necessary things to calculate e.g. angle-of-arrival for WiGig. The API is structured to have a generic list of peers and channels to measure with/on, and then for each of those a set of measurements (again, only FTM right now) to perform. Results are sent to the requesting socket, including a final complete message. Closing the controlling netlink socket will abort a running measurement. v3: - add a bit to report "final" for partial results - remove list keeping etc. and just unicast out the results to the requester (big code reduction ...) - also send complete message unicast, and as a result remove the multicast group - separate out struct cfg80211_pmsr_ftm_request_peer from struct cfg80211_pmsr_request_peer - document timeout == 0 if no timeout - disallow setting timeout nl80211 attribute to 0, must not include attribute for no timeout - make MAC address randomization optional - change num bursts exponent default to 0 (1 burst, rather rather than the old default of 15==don't care) v4: - clarify NL80211_ATTR_TIMEOUT documentation v5: - remove unnecessary nl80211 multicast/family changes - remove partial results bit/flag, final is sufficient - add max_bursts_exponent, max_ftms_per_burst to capability - rename "frames per burst" -> "FTMs per burst" v6: - rename cfg80211_pmsr_free_wdev() to cfg80211_pmsr_wdev_down() and call it in leave, so the device can't go down with any pending measurements v7: - wording fixes (Lior) - fix ftm.max_bursts_exponent to allow having the limit of 0 (Lior) v8: - copyright statements - minor coding style fixes - fix error path leak Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* nl80211: Add per peer statistics to compute FCS error rateAnkita Bajaj2018-10-121-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for drivers to report the total number of MPDUs received and the number of MPDUs received with an FCS error from a specific peer. These counters will be incremented only when the TA of the frame matches the MAC address of the peer irrespective of FCS error. It should be noted that the TA field in the frame might be corrupted when there is an FCS error and TA matching logic would fail in such cases. Hence, FCS error counter might not be fully accurate, but it can provide help in detecting bad RX links in significant number of cases. This FCS error counter without full accuracy can be used, e.g., to trigger a kick-out of a connected client with a bad link in AP mode to force such a client to roam to another AP.

| * nl80211/mac80211: allow non-linear skb in rx_control_portDenis Kenzior2018-07-061-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current implementation of cfg80211_rx_control_port assumed that the caller could provide a contiguous region of memory for the control port frame to be sent up to userspace. Unfortunately, many drivers produce non-linear skbs, especially for data frames. This resulted in userspace getting notified of control port frames with correct metadata (from address, port, etc) yet garbage / nonsense contents, resulting in bad handshakes, disconnections, etc. mac80211 linearizes skbs containing management frames. But it didn't seem worthwhile to do this for control port frames. Thus the signature of cfg80211_rx_control_port was changed to take the skb directly. nl80211 then takes care of obtaining control port frame data directly from the (linear | non-linear) skb. The caller is still responsible for freeing the skb, cfg80211_rx_control_port does not take ownership of it.

Data packet transmit rates and bandwidth used by station can vary a lot even if the station is at fixed location, especially if the rates used are multi stream(2stream, 3stream) rates with different bandwidth(20/40/80 Mhz). These multi stream rates are sensitive and station can use different transmit power for each of the rate and bandwidth combinations. RSSI measured from these RX packets on AP will be not stable and can vary a lot with in a short time. Whereas 802.11 ack frames from station are sent relatively at a constant rate (6/12/24 Mbps) with constant bandwidth(20 Mhz). So average rssi of the ack packets is good and more accurate.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This interface allows the host driver to offload the authentication to user space. This is exclusively defined for host drivers that do not define separate commands for authentication and association, but rely on userspace SME (e.g., in wpa_supplicant for the ~WPA_DRIVER_FLAGS_SME case) for the authentication to happen. This can be used to implement SAE without full implementation in the kernel/firmware while still being able to use NL80211_CMD_CONNECT with driver-based BSS selection. Host driver sends NL80211_CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH event to start/abort authentication to the port on which connect is triggered and status of authentication is further indicated by user space to host driver through the same command response interface. User space entities advertise this capability through the NL80211_ATTR_EXTERNAL_AUTH_SUPP flag in the NL80211_CMD_CONNECT request. Host drivers shall look at this capability to offload the authentication.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When creating a new radio on the fly, hwsim allows this to be done with an arbitrary number of channels, but cfg80211 only supports a limited number of simultaneous channels, leading to a warning. Fix this by validating the number - this requires moving the define for the maximum out to a visible header file.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Both cfg80211_rx_mgmt and cfg80211_report_obss_beacon functions send reports to userspace using NL80211_ATTR_RX_SIGNAL_DBM attribute w/o any processing of their input signal values. Which means that in order to match userspace tools expectations, input signal values for those functions are supposed to be in dBm units. This patch cleans up comments, variable names, and trace reports for those functions, replacing confusing 'mBm' by 'dBm'.

* cfg80211/nl80211: add a port authorized eventAvraham Stern2017-10-021-4/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add an event that indicates that a connection is authorized (i.e. the 4 way handshake was performed by the driver). This event should be sent by the driver after sending a connect/roamed event. This is useful for networks that require 802.1X authentication. In cases that the driver supports 4 way handshake offload, but the 802.1X authentication is managed by user space, the driver needs to inform user space right after the 802.11 association was completed so user space can initialize its 802.1X state machine etc. However, it is also possible that the AP will choose to skip the 802.1X authentication (e.g. when PMKSA caching is used) and proceed with the 4 way handshake immediately. In this case the driver needs to inform user space that 802.1X authentication is no longer required (e.g. to prevent user space from disconnecting since it did not get any EAPOLs from the AP). This is also useful for roaming, in which case it is possible that the driver used the Fast Transition protocol so 802.1X is not required. Since there will now be a dedicated notification indicating that the connection is authorized, the authorized flag can be removed from the roamed event. Drivers can send the new port authorized event right after sending the roamed event to indicate the new AP is already authorized. This therefore reserves the old PORT_AUTHORIZED attribute.
