2020-09-18lib80211: fix unmet direct dependendices config warning when !CRYPTONecip Fazil Yildiran1-0/+1
When LIB80211_CRYPT_CCMP is enabled and CRYPTO is disabled, it results in unmet direct dependencies config warning. The reason is that LIB80211_CRYPT_CCMP selects CRYPTO_AES and CRYPTO_CCM, which are subordinate to CRYPTO. This is reproducible with CRYPTO disabled and R8188EU enabled, where R8188EU selects LIB80211_CRYPT_CCMP but does not select or depend on CRYPTO. Honor the kconfig menu hierarchy to remove kconfig dependency warnings.

2019-07-26lib80211: use crypto API ccm(aes) transform for CCMP processingArd Biesheuvel1-0/+2
Instead of open coding the CCM aead mode in the driver, and invoking the AES block cipher block by block, use a ccm(aes) aead transform which already encapsulates this functionality. This is a cleaner use of the crypto API, and permits optimized implementations to be used, which are typically much faster and deal more efficiently with the SIMD register file, which usually needs to be preserved/restored in order to use special AES instructions.

2017-10-11cfg80211: support loading regulatory database as firmware fileJohannes Berg1-1/+3
As the current regulatory database is only about 4k big, and already difficult to extend, we decided that overall it would be better to get rid of the complications with CRDA and load the database into the kernel directly, but in a new format that is extensible. The new file format can be extended since it carries a length field on all the structs that need to be extensible. In order to be able to request firmware when the module initializes, move cfg80211 from subsys_initcall() to the later fs_initcall(); the firmware loader is at the same level but linked earlier, so it can be called from there. Otherwise, when both the firmware loader and cfg80211 are built-in, the request will crash the kernel. We also need to be before device_initcall() so that cfg80211 is available for devices when they initialize. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

When other drivers (orinoco/hermes or ipw2200) are enabled, they do need the symbols exported as they use them directly. Make those drivers select a new CFG80211_WEXT_EXPORT Kconfig symbol (instead of just CFG80211_WEXT) and export the functions only if requested - this saves about 1/2k due to the size of EXPORT_SYMBOL() itself.

2014-12-31Revert "cfg80211: make WEXT compatibility unselectable"Jiri Kosina1-1/+1
This reverts commit 24a0aa212ee2dbe44360288684478d76a8e20a0a. It's causing severe userspace breakage. Namely, all the utilities from wireless-utils which are relying on CONFIG_WEXT (which means tools like 'iwconfig', 'iwlist', etc) are not working anymore. There is a 'iw' utility in newer wireless-tools, which is supposed to be a replacement for all the "deprecated" binaries, but it's far away from being massively adopted. Please see [1] for example of the userspace breakage this is causing. In addition to that, Larry Finger reports [2] that this patch is also causing ipw2200 driver being impossible to build. To me this clearly shows that CONFIG_WEXT is far, far away from being "deprecated enough" to be removed.

2014-04-09cfg80211: Enable GO operation on additional channelsIlan Peer1-0/+24
Allow GO operation on a channel marked with IEEE80211_CHAN_GO_CONCURRENT iff there is an active station interface that is associated to an AP operating on the same channel in the 2 GHz band or the same UNII band (in the 5 GHz band). This relaxation is not allowed if the channel is marked with IEEE80211_CHAN_RADAR. Note that this is a permissive approach to the FCC definitions, that require a clear assessment that the device operating the AP is an authorized master, i.e., with radar detection and DFS capabilities. It is assumed that such restrictions are enforced by user space. Furthermore, it is assumed, that if the conditions that allowed for the operation of the GO on such a channel change, i.e., the station interface disconnected from the AP, it is the responsibility of user space to evacuate the GO from the channel.

This adds CONFIG_CFG80211_CERTIFICATION_ONUS which is to be used for features / code which require a bit of work on the system integrator's part to ensure that the system will still pass 802.11 regulatory certification. This option is also usable for researchers and experimenters looking to add code in the kernel without impacting compliant code. We'd use CONFIG_EXPERT alone but it seems that most standard Linux distributions are enabling CONFIG_EXPERT already. This allows us to define 802.11 specific kernel features under a flag that is intended by design to be disabled by standard Linux distributions, and only enabled by system integrators or distributions that have done work to ensure regulatory certification on the system with the enabled features.

2011-01-21kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERTDavid Rientjes1-1/+1
The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than only small devices. This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc). Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they are making should enable it.

2009-10-08wext: refactorJohannes Berg1-15/+35
Refactor wext to * split out iwpriv handling * split out iwspy handling * split out procfs support * allow cfg80211 to have wireless extensions compat code w/o CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT After this, drivers need to - select WIRELESS_EXT - for wext support - select WEXT_PRIV - for iwpriv support - select WEXT_SPY - for iwspy support except cfg80211 -- which gets new hooks in wext-core.c and can then get wext handlers without CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT. Wireless extensions procfs support is auto-selected based on PROC_FS and anything that requires the wext core (i.e. WIRELESS_EXT or CFG80211_WEXT).

2009-08-28cfg80211: make spurious warnings less likely, configurableJohannes Berg1-0/+17
Bob reported that he got warnings in IBSS mode about the ssid_len being zero on a joined event, but only when kmemcheck was enabled. This appears to be due to a race condition between drivers and userspace, when the driver reports joined but the user in the meantime decided to leave the IBSS again, the warning would trigger. This was made more likely by kmemcheck delaying the code that does the check and sends the event. So first, make the warning trigger closer to the driver, which means it's not locked, but since only the warning depends on it that's ok. And secondly, users will not want to have spurious warnings at all, so make those that are known to be racy in such a way configurable.

2009-07-10cfg80211: introduce nl80211 testmode commandJohannes Berg1-0/+15
This introduces a new NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE for testing and calibration use with nl80211. There's no multiplexing like like iwpriv had, and the command is not available by default, it needs to be explicitly enabled in Kconfig and shouldn't be enabled in most kernels. The command requires a wiphy index or interface index to identify the device to operate on, and the new TESTDATA attribute. There also is API for sending replies to the command, and testmode multicast messages (on a testmode multicast group). I've also updated mac80211 to be able to pass through the command to the driver, since it itself doesn't implement the testmode command. Additionally, to give people an idea of how to use the command, I've added a little code to hwsim that makes use of the new command to set the powersave mode, this is currently done via debugfs and should remain there, and the testmode command only serves as an example of how to use this best -- with nested netlink attributes in the TESTDATA attribute. A hwsim testmode tool can be found at http://git.sipsolutions.net/hwsim.git/. This tool is BSD licensed so people can easily use it as a basis for their own internal fabrication and validation tools.

2009-07-10wext: default to yJohannes Berg1-9/+3
The way I initially thought we could do wireless extensions is by making all the compat code in cfg80211 be independent of CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT, but this is turning out to not be feasible. Therefore, fix the Kconfig help text and make the option default to yes, so people won't get a nasty surprise when mac80211 will get rid of its 'select WIRELESS_EXT' any time now.

2009-06-03cfg80211: add rfkill supportJohannes Berg1-1/+2
To be easier on drivers and users, have cfg80211 register an rfkill structure that drivers can access. When soft-killed, simply take down all interfaces; when hard-killed the driver needs to notify us and we will take down the interfaces after the fact. While rfkilled, interfaces cannot be set UP.

The scan capability added to cfg80211/nl80211 introduced a dependency on nl80211 by cfg80211. We can thus no longer have just cfg80211 without nl80211. Specifically, cfg80211_scan_done() calls nl80211_send_scan_aborted() or nl80211_send_scan_done(). Now we remove the option for user to select nl80211.

2008-11-26cfg80211/mac80211: Add 802.11d supportLuis R. Rodriguez1-0/+11
This adds country IE parsing to mac80211 and enables its usage within the new regulatory infrastructure in cfg80211. We parse the country IEs only on management beacons for the BSSID you are associated to and disregard the IEs when the country and environment (indoor, outdoor, any) matches the already processed country IE. To avoid following misinformed or outdated APs we build and use a regulatory domain out of the intersection between what the AP provides us on the country IE and what CRDA is aware is allowed on the same country. A secondary device is allowed to follow only the same country IE as it make no sense for two devices on a system to be in two different countries. In the case the AP is using country IEs for an incorrect country the user may help compliance further by setting the regulatory domain before or after the IE is parsed and in that case another intersection will be performed. CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY is supported but requires CRDA present. Signed-off-by: Luis R.
