Fedor Pchelkin e8a1e58345 mac802154: fix llsec key resources release in mac802154_llsec_key_del
mac802154_llsec_key_del() can free resources of a key directly without
following the RCU rules for waiting before the end of a grace period. This
may lead to use-after-free in case llsec_lookup_key() is traversing the
list of keys in parallel with a key deletion:

refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.

Handle the proper resource release in the RCU callback function
mac802154_llsec_key_del_rcu().

Note that if llsec_lookup_key() finds a key, it gets a refcount via
llsec_key_get() and locally copies key id from key_entry (which is a
list element). So it's safe to call llsec_key_put() and free the list
entry after the RCU grace period elapses.

Miquel Raynal 3accf47627 mac802154: Handle basic beaconing
Implement the core hooks in order to provide the softMAC layer support
for sending beacons. Coordinators may be requested to send beacons in a
beacon enabled PAN in order for the other devices around to self
discover the available PANs automatically.

Changing the channels is prohibited while a beacon operation is
ongoing.

The implementation uses a workqueue triggered at a certain interval
depending on the symbol duration for the current channel and the
interval order provided.

Sending beacons in response to a BEACON_REQ frame (ie. answering active
scans) is not yet supported.

This initial patchset has no security support (llsec).

Waiman Long 453431a549 mm, treewide: rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive()
As said by Linus:

  A symmetric naming is only helpful if it implies symmetries in use.
  Otherwise it's actively misleading.

  In "kzalloc()", the z is meaningful and an important part of what the
  caller wants.

  In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the
  future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or
  something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_.

The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information
that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory
objects.

Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently
added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit.
In addition, memzero_explicit() is used to clear the memory to make sure
that it won't get optimized away by the compiler.

The renaming is done by using the command sequence:

  git grep -w --name-only kzfree |\
  xargs sed -i 's/kzfree/kfree_sensitive/'

followed by some editing of the kfree_sensitive() kerneldoc and adding
a kzfree backward compatibility macro in slab.h.

Diogenes Pereira 3e4962667e mac802154: Fix MAC header and payload encrypted
According to  802.15.4-2003/2006/2015 specifications the MAC frame is
composed of MHR, MAC payload and MFR and just the outgoing MAC payload
must be encrypted.

If communication is secure,sender build Auxiliary Security Header(ASH),
insert it next to the standard MHR header with security enabled bit ON,
and secure frames before transmitting them. According to the information
carried within the ASH, recipient retrieves the right cryptographic key
and correctly un-secure MAC frames.

The error scenario occurs on Linux using IEEE802154_SCF_SECLEVEL_ENC(4)
security level when llsec_do_encrypt_unauth() function builds theses MAC
frames incorrectly. On recipients these MAC frames are discarded,logging
"got invalid frame" messages.

Phoebe Buckheister f0f77dc6be ieee802154, mac802154: implement devkey record option
The 802.15.4-2011 standard states that for each key, a list of devices
that use this key shall be kept. Previous patches have only considered
two options:

 * a device "uses" (or may use) all keys, rendering the list useless
 * a device is restricted to a certain set of keys

Another option would be that a device *may* use all keys, but need not
do so, and we are interested in the actual set of keys the device uses.
Recording keys used by any given device may have a noticable performance
impact and might not be needed as often. The common case, in which a
device will not switch keys too often, should still perform well.

Phoebe Buckheister 5d637d5aab mac802154: add llsec structures and mutators
This patch adds containers and mutators for the major ieee802154_llsec
structures to mac802154. Most of the (rather simple) ieee802154_llsec
structs are wrapped only to provide an rcu_head for orderly disposal,
but some structs - llsec keys notably - require more complex
bookkeeping.

Since each llsec key may be referenced by a number of llsec key table
entries (with differing key ids, but the same actual key), we want to
save memory and not allocate crypto transforms for each entry in the
table. Thus, the mac802154 llsec key is reference-counted instead.
Further, each key will have four associated crypto transforms - three
CCM transforms for the authsizes 4/8/16 and one CTR transform for
unauthenticated encryption. If we had a CCM* transform that allowed
authsize 0, and authsize as part of requests instead of transforms, this
would not be necessary.
