cfg80211/nl80211: implement station attribute retrieval

2008-01-28T22:59:52Z

After a station is added to the kernel's structures, userspace has to be able to retrieve statistics about that station, especially whether the station was idle and how much bytes were transferred to and from it. This adds the necessary code to nl80211. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

cfg80211/nl80211: introduce key handling

2008-01-28T22:59:48Z

This introduces key handling to cfg80211/nl80211. Default and group keys can be added, changed and removed; sequence counters for each key can be retrieved. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: Make rtnetlink infrastructure network namespace aware (v3)

2008-01-28T22:54:25Z

After this patch none of the netlink callback support anything except the initial network namespace but the rtnetlink infrastructure now handles multiple network namespaces. Changes from v2: - IPv6 addrlabel processing Changes from v1: - no need for special rtnl_unlock handling - fixed IPv6 ndisc Signed-off-by: Denis V. Lunev Signed-off-by: Eric W.

[WIRELESS] WEXT: Fix userspace corruption on 64-bit.

2007-11-20T11:29:53Z

On 64-bit systems sizeof(struct ifreq) is 8 bytes larger than sizeof(struct iwreq). For GET calls, the wireless extension code copies back into userspace using sizeof(struct ifreq) but userspace and elsewhere only allocates a "struct iwreq". Thus, this copy writes past the end of the iwreq object and corrupts whatever sits after it in memory. Fix the copy_to_user() length. This particularly hurts the compat case because the wireless compat code uses compat_alloc_userspace() and right after this allocated buffer is the current bottom of the user stack, and that's what gets overwritten by the copy_to_user() call.
