Kartik NairandJohannes Berg dc14686f27 wifi: cfg80211: wext: validate chandef in monitor mode
cfg80211_wext_siwfreq() constructs a channel definition for monitor
mode but passes it to cfg80211_set_monitor_channel() without first
validating it with cfg80211_chandef_valid(). This causes a WARN_ON
in cfg80211_chandef_dfs_required() when it receives an invalid chandef.

Add the missing cfg80211_chandef_valid() check before calling
cfg80211_set_monitor_channel() to return -EINVAL early on invalid
channel definitions, consistent with how other callers handle this.

Avraham SternandJohannes Berg 7c6084d7fa wifi: cfg80211: support key installation on non-netdev wdevs
Currently key installation is only supported for netdev. For NAN,
support most key operations (except setting default data key) on
wdevs instead of netdevs, and adjust all the APIs and tracing to
match.

Since nothing currently sets NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_SECURE_NAN, this
doesn't change anything (P2P Device already isn't allowed.)

Miri KorenblitandJohannes Berg 033fe322f5 wifi: nl80211/cfg80211: support stations of non-netdev interfaces
Currently, a station can only be added to a netdev interface,
mainly because there was no need for a station of a non-netdev
interface.

But for NAN, we will have stations that belong to the NL80211_IFTYPE_NAN
interface.

Prepare for adding/changing/deleting a station that belongs to a non-netdev
interface. This doesn't actually allow such stations - this will be done
in a different patch.

Linus Torvalds bf4afc53b7 Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

Kees Cook 69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Roopni DevanathanandJohannes Berg b74947b4f6 wifi: cfg80211/mac80211: Add support to get radio index
Currently, per-radio attributes are set on per-phy basis, i.e., all the
radios present in a wiphy will take attributes values sent from user. But
each radio in a wiphy can get different values from userspace based on
its requirement.

To extend support to set per-radio attributes, add support to get radio
index from userspace. Add an NL attribute - NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RADIO_INDEX,
to get user specified radio index for which attributes should be changed.
Pass this to individual drivers, so that the drivers can use this radio
index to change per-radio attributes when necessary. Currently, per-radio
attributes identified are:
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_TX_POWER_LEVEL
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_RX
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RETRY_SHORT
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RETRY_LONG
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FRAG_THRESHOLD
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RTS_THRESHOLD
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_COVERAGE_CLASS
NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_LIMIT
NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_MEMORY_LIMIT
NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_QUANTUM

By default, the radio index is set to -1. This means the attribute should
be treated as a global configuration. If the user has not specified any
index, then the radio index passed to individual drivers would be -1. This
would indicate that the attribute applies to all radios in that wiphy.

Rameshkumar SundaramandJohannes Berg 7a53af85d3 wifi: cfg80211: send MLO links tx power info in GET_INTERFACE
Currently, TX power is reported on interface/wdev level as
part of NL80211_CMD_GET_INTERFACE. With MLO, Multiple links
can be part of an interface/wdev and hence its necessary to
report the TX power of each link.

Add support to send tx power for all valid links of an MLD as
part of NL80211_CMD_GET_INTERFACE request.

As far as userspace is concerned, there is no behavioral change
for Non-ML Interfaces. For ML interfaces, userspace should fetch
TX power that is nested inside NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINKS, similar to
how channel info(NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ) is fetched.

The cfg80211 Wireless Extension handler callbacks (iw_handler) use a
union for the data argument. Actually use the union and perform explicit

These changes were made partly manually and partly with the help of
Coccinelle.

Johannes Berg 7b0a0e3c3a wifi: cfg80211: do some rework towards MLO link APIs
In order to support multi-link operation with multiple links,
start adding some APIs. The notable addition here is to have
the link ID in a new nl80211 attribute, that will be used to
differentiate the links in many nl80211 operations.

So far, this patch adds the netlink NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINK_ID
attribute (as well as the NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINKS attribute)
and plugs it through the system in some places, checking the
validity etc. along with other infrastructure needed for it.

For now, I've decided to include only the over-the-air link
ID in the API. I know we discussed that we eventually need to
have to have other ways of identifying a link, but for local
AP mode and auth/assoc commands as well as set_key etc. we'll
use the OTA ID.

Also included in this patch is some refactoring of the data
structures in struct wireless_dev, splitting for the first
time the data into type dependent pieces, to make reasoning
about these things easier.

Johannes Berg a05829a722 cfg80211: avoid holding the RTNL when calling the driver
Currently, _everything_ in cfg80211 holds the RTNL, and if you
have a slow USB device (or a few) you can get some bad lock
contention on that.

Fix that by re-adding a mutex to each wiphy/rdev as we had at
some point, so we have locking for the wireless_dev lists and
all the other things in there, and also so that drivers still
don't have to worry too much about it (they still won't get
parallel calls for a single device).

Then, we can restrict the RTNL to a few cases where we add or
remove interfaces and really need the added protection. Some
of the global list management still also uses the RTNL, since
we need to have it anyway for netdev management, but we only
hold the RTNL for very short periods of time here.
