The return value from the call to idr_alloc() is int. However, the return value is being assigned to an unsigned int variable 'buf_id', so making 'buf_id' an int.

When we have multiple interfaces receiving the same frame, such as a multicast frame, one interface might have a sta and the other not. In this case, link_sta would be set but not cleared again. Always set link_sta, so we keep an invariant that link_sta and sta are either both set or both not set. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

There's at least one case in ieee80211_rx_for_interface() where we might pass &((struct sta_info *)NULL)->sta to it only to then do container_of(), and then checking the result for NULL, but checking the result of container_of() for NULL looks really odd.

When a connection was established without going through NL80211_CMD_CONNECT, the ssid was never set in the wireless_dev struct. Now we set it in __cfg80211_connect_result() when it is not already set. When using a userspace configuration that does not call cfg80211_connect() (can be checked with breakpoints in the kernel), this patch should allow `networkctl status device_name` to output the SSID instead of null.

Gilad Itzkovitch authored
The ieee80211_accept_frame() function performs a number of early checks to decide whether or not further processing needs to be done on a frame. One of those checks is the ieee80211_is_robust_mgmt_frame() function. It requires to peek into the frame payload, but because defragmentation does not occur until later on in the receive path, this peek is invalid for any fragment other than the first one. Also, in this scenario there is no STA and so the fragmented frame will be dropped later on in the process and will not reach the upper stack. This can happen with large action frames at low rates, for example, we see issues with DPP on S1G. This change will only check if the frame is robust if it's the first fragment. Invalid fragmented packets will be discarded later after defragmentation is completed.

Currently the regulatory driver does not call the regulatory callback reg_notifier for self managed wiphys. Sometimes driver needs cfg80211 to calculate the info of ieee80211_channel such as flags and power, and driver needs to get the info of ieee80211_channel after hint of driver, but driver does not know when calculation of the info of ieee80211_channel become finished, so add notify to driver in reg_process_self_managed_hint() from cfg80211 is a good way, then driver could get the correct info in callback of reg_notifier.

Non-MLO station frames are dropped in Rx path due to the condition check in ieee80211_rx_is_valid_sta_link_id(). In multi-link AP scenario, non-MLO stations try to connect in any of the valid links in the ML AP, where the station valid_links and link_id params are valid in the ieee80211_sta object. But ieee80211_rx_is_valid_sta_link_id() always return false for the non-MLO stations by the assumption taken is valid_links and link_id are not valid in non-MLO stations object (ieee80211_sta), this assumption is wrong. Due to this assumption, non-MLO station frames are dropped which leads to failure in association. Fix it by removing the condition check and allow the link validation check for the non-MLO stations.

Stations can update bandwidth/NSS change in VHT action frame with action type Operating Mode Notification. (IEEE Std 802.11-2020 - 9.4.1.53 Operating Mode field) For Operating Mode Notification, an RX NSS change to a value greater than AP's maximum NSS should not be allowed. During fuzz testing, by forcefully sending VHT Op. mode notif. frames from STA with random rx_nss values, it is found that AP accepts rx_nss values greater that APs maximum NSS instead of discarding such NSS change. Hence allow NSS change only up to maximum NSS that is negotiated and capped to AP's capability during association.

At least ath10k and ath11k supported hardware (maybe more) does not implement mesh A-MSDU aggregation in a standard compliant way. 802.11-2020 9.3.2.2.2 declares that the Mesh Control field is part of the A-MSDU header (and little-endian). As such, its length must not be included in the subframe length field. Hardware affected by this bug treats the mesh control field as part of the MSDU data and sets the length accordingly. In order to avoid packet loss, keep track of which stations are affected by this and take it into account when converting A-MSDU to 802.3 + mesh control packets.

The current mac80211 mesh A-MSDU receive path fails to parse A-MSDU packets on mesh interfaces, because it assumes that the Mesh Control field is always directly after the 802.11 header. 802.11-2020 9.3.2.2.2 Figure 9-70 shows that the Mesh Control field is actually part of the A-MSDU subframe header. This makes more sense, since it allows packets for multiple different destinations to be included in the same A-MSDU, as long as RA and TID are still the same. Another issue is the fact that the A-MSDU subframe length field was apparently accidentally defined as little-endian in the standard. In order to fix this, the mesh forwarding path needs happen at a different point in the receive path. ieee80211_data_to_8023_exthdr is changed to ignore the mesh control field and leave it in after the ethernet header. This also affects the source/dest MAC address fields, which now in the case of mesh point to the mesh SA/DA. ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s is changed to deal with the endian difference and to add the Mesh Control length to the subframe length, since it's not covered by the MSDU length field. With these changes, the mac80211 will get the same packet structure for converted regular data packets and unpacked A-MSDU subframes. The mesh forwarding checks are now only performed after the A-MSDU decap. For locally received packets, the Mesh Control header is stripped away. For forwarded packets, a new 802.11 header gets added.

Userspace processes such as network daemons may wish to be informed when any AP interface is brought up on the system, for example to initiate a (re)configuration of IP settings or to start a DHCP server. Currently nl80211 does not broadcast any such event on its multicast groups, leaving userspace only two options: 1. the process must be the one that actually issued the NL80211_CMD_START_AP request, so that it can react on the response to that request; 2. the process must react to RTM_NEWLINK events indicating a change in carrier state, and may query for further information about the AP and react accordingly. Option (1) is robust, but it does not cover all scenarios. It is easy to imagine a situation where this is not the case (e.g. hostapd + systemd-networkd). Option (2) is not robust, because RTM_NEWLINK events may be silently discarded by the linkwatch logic (cf. linkwatch_fire_event()). Concretely, consider a scenario in which the carrier state flip-flops in the following way: ^ carrier state (high/low = carrier/no carrier) | | _______ _______ ... | | | | | ______| "foo" |____| "bar" (SSID in "quotes") | +-------A-------B----C---------> time If the time interval between (A) and (C) is less than 1 second, then linkwatch may emit only a single RTM_NEWLINK event indicating carrier gain. This is problematic because it is possible that the network configuration that should be applied is a function of the AP's properties such as SSID (cf. SSID= in systemd.network(5)). As illustrated in the above diagram, it may be that the AP with SSID "bar" ends up being configured as though it had SSID "foo". Address the above issue by having nl80211 emit an NL80211_CMD_START_AP message on the MLME nl80211 multicast group. This allows for arbitrary processes to be reliably informed.
