proski a5b3087ab0 Rewrite ieee80211_input_all()
The logic to prevent calling ieee80211_input() on inactive VAPs was
flawed.  The first VAP was exempt from the check for no reason.

Rewrite to avoid having nested loops.  Give the original skb to the
first VAP, not to the last one, as the first VAP is easier to find in a
loop.  Process the first VAP after others.

Only collect the result from the first VAP.  ieee80211_input() should
return the same value (frame type) for all VAPs except if we call it
incorrectly, e.g. on an inactive VAP.

mentor f259deab93 In some parts of Madwifi, SKBs are dispatched from the VAP device to the physical device using Linux kernel queuing, which does not understand our node reference system, so node references are carefully cleaned up if the packet is dropped.
However, the netif_rx and vlan_hwaccel_receive_skb functions dispatch the SKB to the higher networking levels, out of our domain.

Therefore, handle node references as appropriate.

 * Add a function to remove SKB from ath_buf.
 * Call aforementioned function early if we are accepting a frame, so that there's not chance the data can get stomped on by DMA. We should probably do this for ignored frames as well, but I got fed up trying to sort out the stack of goto.
 * Remove some KASSERT for skb users, as the SKB are always copied.

mtaylor 7c6997619e This commit fixes problems with skbuff cloning and reference counting in input handling. The biggest problem with this code was corruption of memory.
ieee80211_input can receive cloned skb from the bridge layer, and thus makes copies to modify and use.  The original was being freed immediately upon copying.  The problem is that when you issue ANY response other than NETDEV_TX_OK the skb is returned to the kernel queue.  So, basically there were wild pointers to skb in the skb queue, and these skb were being re-used by other applications and drivers - resulting in crashes all over the place.

With this new logic, we keep the original around until we know whether or not we will requeue it NETDEV_TX_BUSY or consume it NETDEV_TX_OK and we correctly free the skb only when appropriate.

We also get rid of the net80211_input_all function which was doing a bunch of unnecessary (and broken) copies and noe updates.

mentor ebc79fce38 Cleanup up de-MIC failure (in hardware) handling. Apparently, HW sometimes gets this wrong and spuriusly fails valid packets. In all cases, the packets are dropped, but we do extra processing to record statistics correctly.
This changeset adds a node statistic. If this is not liked, I encourage it to be fixed; I might learn something.

mtaylor dead14502d Fix a few more leaked node references when a
copy of the bss node is used to send a message
we need to make sure all code paths release
it when done.  This bug combined with repeated
auth failures would cause node references to 
grow with every failure.  Then, if you were 
taking down the interface and bringing it back
up you would leak one page (4kb) every time the
the node table was flushed on transition to UP.

mtaylor 132f01bad9 Fix for bridging. We modify the packet's contents. Linux bridging code assumes it can clone the packet and send it to multiple interfaces without having it changed out from under it. Therefore, we need to clone each skb prior to modifying the copy. This fixes some very nasty bugs with bridged VAPs (esp with multiple VAPs in a bridge and multicast/broadcast traffic).
The symptom would be fragments of 802.11 header showing up in the ethernet header because of skb header offsets being corrupted by MadWifi devices on lower ports which then get forwarded as-is to wired ports.

Sorry for the lame explanation, but the short end of the story is that you have to copy the skb before you modify it if you are going to play nice with bridging.

mtaylor e6a0fd9b49 This patch refactors the layer 2 update frame sending logic into two routines. Both RNR and XID frames are sent to update bridges. The RNR is probably not the best way to update L2 bridges. It's basically telling the bridges and switches that the MAC is not able to receive traffic (i.e. congested or down) and we never send any other L2 packets to counteract any side effects of this. I also found that it didn't seem to be updating every MAC table on every bridge. XID, however, is the correct way, according to my research and we send XID to inform the bridges of the new location of the MAC as dictated by the standards. I left the RNR in there for good measure, since it doesn't appear to have any ill effects for anyone. (Hostapd ALSO sends XID when you are using hostapd... the redundancy is harmless and allows madwifi to operate correctly when using open or WEP protected modes without hostapd).

mtaylor e7ccdf6be3 When IFF_MULTICAST was not enabled on the vap, we used to skip some filtering that prevents reception of your own multicast traffic. Then we would procede to ignore the fact that IFF_MULTICAST flag was disabled and send anyway.
I've fixed the logic so that multicast is dropped, with an error when disabled.  I don't think this is a valid configuration.  Also, we don't skip the filtering logic so that our own multicast traffic doesn't come back to us (looking like a bridging loop).
