In particular, this can happen when we are waiting for the AUTH response message. This IBSS_STA event is triggered after the NEW_STA one and only when the upper layer is allowed to assume that the new peer is ready Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli --- 1/2 v2: * untouched 2/2 v2: * if userspace registered for auth frames, the new station is immediately authenticated and the new IBSS_STA event is triggered. include/net/cfg80211.h | 8 ++++++++ include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h | 2 ++ net/wireless/mlme.c | 9 +++++++++ net/wireless/nl80211.c | 33 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ net/wireless/nl80211.h | 3 +++ 5 files changed, 55 insertions(+) diff --git a/include/net/cfg80211.h b/include/net/cfg80211.h index 8e6a6b7..3266c03 100644 --- a/include/net/cfg80211.h +++ b/include/net/cfg80211.h @@ -3497,6 +3497,14 @@ void cfg80211_new_sta(struct net_device *dev, const u8 *mac_addr, struct station_info *sinfo, gfp_t gfp); /** + * cfg80211_ibss_sta - notify userspace that the ibss station is ready + * @dev: the netdev + * @mac_addr: the station's address + * @gfp: allocation flags + */ +void cfg80211_ibss_sta(struct net_device *dev, const u8 *mac_addr, gfp_t gfp); + +/** * cfg80211_del_sta - notify userspace about deletion of a station * * @dev: the netdev diff --git a/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h b/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h index e3e19f8..7e0911e 100644 --- a/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h +++ b/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h @@ -736,6 +736,8 @@ enum nl80211_commands { NL80211_CMD_SET_MCAST_RATE, + NL80211_CMD_IBSS_STATION, + /* add new commands above here */ /* used to define NL80211_CMD_MAX below */ diff --git a/net/wireless/mlme.c b/net/wireless/mlme.c index 5e8123e..f9493fc 100644 --- a/net/wireless/mlme.c +++ b/net/wireless/mlme.c @@ -612,6 +612,15 @@ void cfg80211_new_sta(struct net_device *dev, const u8 *mac_addr, } EXPORT_SYMBOL(cfg80211_new_sta); +void cfg80211_ibss_sta(struct net_device *dev, const u8 *mac_addr, gfp_t gfp) +{ + struct wiphy *wiphy = dev->ieee80211_ptr->wiphy; + struct cfg80211_registered_device *rdev = wiphy_to_dev(wiphy); + + nl80211_send_ibss_sta_event(rdev, dev, mac_addr, gfp); +} +EXPORT_SYMBOL(cfg80211_ibss_sta); + void cfg80211_del_sta(struct net_device *dev, const u8 *mac_addr, gfp_t gfp) { struct wiphy *wiphy = dev->ieee80211_ptr->wiphy; diff --git a/net/wireless/nl80211.c b/net/wireless/nl80211.c index f45706a..2d27911 100644 --- a/net/wireless/nl80211.c +++ b/net/wireless/nl80211.c @@ -8564,6 +8564,39 @@ void nl80211_send_sta_event(struct cfg80211_registered_device *rdev, nl80211_mlme_mcgrp.id, gfp); } +void nl80211_send_ibss_sta_event(struct cfg80211_registered_device *rdev, + struct net_device *dev, const u8 *mac_addr, + gfp_t gfp) +{ + struct sk_buff *msg; + void *hdr; + + msg = nlmsg_new(NLMSG_GOODSIZE, gfp); + if (!msg) + return; + + hdr = nl80211hdr_put(msg, 0, 0, 0, NL80211_CMD_IBSS_STATION); + if (!hdr) { + nlmsg_free(msg); + return; + } + + if (nla_put_u32(msg, NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX, dev->ifindex) || + nla_put(msg, NL80211_ATTR_MAC, ETH_ALEN, mac_addr)) + goto nla_put_failure; + + genlmsg_end(msg, hdr); + + genlmsg_multicast_netns(wiphy_net(&rdev->wiphy), msg, 0, + nl80211_mlme_mcgrp.id, gfp); + return; + + nla_put_failure: + genlmsg_cancel(msg, hdr); + nlmsg_free(msg); +} + + void nl80211_send_sta_del_event(struct cfg80211_registered_device *rdev, struct net_device *dev, const u8 *mac_addr, gfp_t gfp) diff --git a/net/wireless/nl80211.h b/net/wireless/nl80211.h index 2acba84..429f5d6 100644 --- a/net/wireless/nl80211.h +++ b/net/wireless/nl80211.h @@ -85,6 +85,9 @@ void nl80211_send_remain_on_channel_cancel( void nl80211_send_sta_event(struct cfg80211_registered_device *rdev, struct net_device *dev, const u8 *mac_addr, struct station_info *sinfo, gfp_t gfp); +void nl80211_send_ibss_sta_event(struct cfg80211_registered_device *rdev, + struct net_device *dev, const u8 *mac_addr, + gfp_t gfp); void nl80211_send_sta_del_event(struct cfg80211_registered_device *rdev, struct net_device *dev, const u8 *mac_addr, gfp_t gfp);
