This series should fix mac problems in disassociation
There are two basic problems disassociation in current implementation.
The order of steps in the dissociation flow and missing proper
disassociation when moving from one AP to another.
One more missing piece not addressed by these patches is how
to notify mac80211 about rfkill. It can be done via mac_notify callback
or by rf kill notification chain. I didn't explore the later yet.
I'm releasing this as RFC because I didn't tested it after rebasing
to current wireless-testing. (Will do soon)

Mind if I adopt this patch series? I've done only slight modifications
so far (the int->bool thing I asked for) and have rebased all the
patches I had already posted on top of it. The arguments to
ieee80211_set_disassoc are changing a lot in my patch series anyway so
I'll just work on top of the bool/bool thing and then fix it up, ok?

Do u think it is sane using IEEE80211_STYPE_DISASSOC and
IEEE80211_STYPE_DEAUTH for this?
Thanks

Yep
This is rebasing bug. This line is newer than the original patch.
I will added this hunk.
Thanks
This patch cleans current association when leaving to new BSS. this is
needed as old configuration and data were still stored in station table
and in low level driver, causing problems (e.g. 11n mlme) in new BSS

That's what we're doing of course, but should we really drop all the
frames that might still be in the queue? If we're just roaming we could
send them out via the next AP, but it's hard to know, and since it's
working let's not touch it for now.
How exactly are you triggering that "unauthorized port" message? I can't
seem to reproduce to see if stopping the queue helps, but I'm fairly
sure, try the patch below that fixes this.

The other question is whether we should be doing netif_carrier_off() at
all since that throws away frames from the queue and attaches a noop
qdisc. When we're roaming quickly between two APs, we don't necessarily
want that, but we don't actually know whether or not we'll be able to
get back to an AP quickly when we disassociate for whatever reason.

Odd. So you did get the "No ProbeResp from current AP - assume out of
range" message?
In that case I would have expected you to get the same message, but of
course it's both timing and frame sensitive. I'm a bit surprised you saw
the message at all. Maybe I can reproduce by doing a ping flood to the
AP.

Dunno, were you thinking of unifying ieee80211_send_disassoc and
ieee80211_send_deauth into a single function? That might be worthwhile
anyway, the frames are identical...

In current situation we are dropping the frames anyway.

Powering off AP, I think I've seen only Cisco AP that are able to send
deauth packet on power off. So this was without.

So what you are saying this is expected behavior?
Please remember I'm testing the disassociation
1. AP is should down
2. Switching to another AP -> Legacy <-> HT
3. WPA supplicnat (it uses ieee80211_ioctl_siwmlme)
4. The BA tear down will be unfortunately untested, for now

Alright, I have an AP where I can log in and turn off the radio :))
I've been able to trigger the message _without_ your patches, but not
_with_ your patches so far!
I still think we should add the queue stopping so we can't run into the
messages. Do you want me to send them out then?

That works too, sure, though seems a little overkill, the function is
called what, three times? Anyway, whatever you prefer, I just don't like
bare "int" as a bool.

I've added new commit message to the first patch and the new hunk
otherwise no changes.
I want to test your stopping queue stuff in my environment but I get
to the lab only very late today.
Thanks for your effort

Don't mind just need to test them properly and update commit messages.
Any suggestion how we do that?

we should stop the wlan0 not the master device. Only data frames
should be stopped.

it would be nice if you add the problem description into the commit
messages of the actual patches. This helps to actually figure out the
reason for these kind of changes and they are then stored together with
the patch. We really have to be more verbose why we are doing things. If
anyone has to go through one year old kernels and figure out why a
change has been made, they are basically lost. I had to go through 7
years old kernels in the past and every extra piece of information is so
useful then.

and no, netif_carrier_off() doesn't immediately stop the queues, it just
schedules the link watch which will _eventually_ remove the qdiscs and
attach the noop qdisc.

Ok, sure, works for me. I decided to do the stopping in a separate patch
as I have verified that it was already "wrong" before your changes,
patch inlined below (it's more a cosmetic thing, but still wrong).
Subject: mac80211: stop queues before carrier off
During testing of the disassociation fixes, Tomas noticed that it
was possible to run into a situation where you'd suddenly get a
few "wlan0: dropped frame to <AP> (unauthorized port)" messages
and I found this to be due to the AP's sta_info having been
removed but netif_carrier_off not having removed/stopped traffic
yet. To avoid that, stop the queue for the interface (and avoid
bringing them up when another vif scans when they weren't up.)

This whole set_associated(0) vs. ieee80211_set_disassoc() business seems
fishy to me, can't we just move the set_associated(0) code into
set_disassoc? AFAICT there's only one caller now that calls with (0),
and that's in set_disassoc().

In general it works but I didn't test all the corner cases yet. Not
sure this is related but.
why I'm hitting unathorized prot messag for subif_start_xmit.
Shouldn't carrier_off(stada->dev) stop the queue? I haven't seen this
before.

I've already changed the commit messages slightly, you can find my
versions at http://johannes.sipsolutions.net/patches/kernel/all/LATEST/
(disassoc-part-{1,2,3}.patch). If you want to test those by themselves
that would probably be useful, and if you want to test my complete mlme
rewrite I'd appreciate that too, but I'm not done rebasing yet :)

This patch moves disassociation code from ieee80211_set_associated
to ieee80211_set_disassoc for this it also introduces
ieee80211_sta_send_apinfo function to reduce code duplication.
In addition it marks bss_info_change BSS_CHANGED_HT also
in disassociation flow

In client mode? Then something is really gone wrong, APs always have the
WLAN_STA_AUTHORIZED bit set once we get an assoc response.

Sort of, yes.

When you shut down the AP, it probably sends you a deauth. Frames we
want to send out for it might still be pending in our queue. Since
you're removing the sta_info for it right away and not stopping queues,
you get the "unauthorized port" message because there's no sta_info
struct.
The reason you haven't seen that before is that the sta_info wasn't
deleted, so we could still send out a few frames before
netif_carrier_down took effect.
To fix it, we probably want to simply stop the queue for that subif too.

and if it doesn't, you run into the same situation, the old code however
should have run into the same situation too if it didn't deauth frames,
because in the case where the AP simply suddenly stopped responding to
probe requests we removed the sta_info too. Hence my assumption it does
send deauth frames because you haven't seen this problem before.

I'm thinking rather using some enum values just for readability
foo(DEAUTH, ORIGIN_SELF) vs foo(tree,true)
foo(DISASSOC, ORIGIN_PEER) vs foo(false, false)

Will do,

Okay I'll take first the 3 patches then now and I will check the
rewrites after that .
Thanks

Alright. I already have it in my version but since I've rebased my
patches on top of these three anyway, you can simply send them in when
you've verified that they're ok (maybe with the queue stop I just sent
you) and then I'll do mine after. I have a few I'll be re-sending but
they don't conflict.
