An attribute NL80211_ATTR_SOCKET_OWNER can be set by the scan initiator.
If present, the attribute will cause the scan to be stopped if the client
dies.

Hi,

v7:
- convert the cfg80211_sched_scan_request to __rcu pointer in order
  to avoid races when accessing it
- reverting the patch v6, the port id is back in request struct

v6:
- moved owner netlink port id from cfg80211_sched_scan_request to
  rdev in order to avoid possible races

v5:
- discarded the locking changes in v4
- instead of trying to schedule sched_scan_stop worker from
  struct cfg80211_sched_scan_request, move the worker to wiphy
  as that makes it easier to manage the sched_scan_stop worker.
  There are also one scheduled scan / wiphy so it is also logical
  to do it like this.

v4:
- rtnl locking issues fixed in patch 2

v3:
- backward compatibility define tweaked in patch 1
- added missing signed-off-by:

v2:
- split the patch
- In patch 1, use a generic NL80211_ATTR_SOCKET_OWNER attribute and
  convert the old code that uses NL80211_ATTR_IFACE_SOCKET_OWNER to
  use the new value. A define is provided for backward compatibility.
- Any pending schedule scan stop worker is cancelled when interface is
  taken down in patch 2

Cheers,
Jukka

You totally need to revisit how to use RCU.

Just some examples:
 * don't synchronize_rcu() after assignment - what did you do that for?
 * don't use rcu_read_lock() when you already have the write lock (rtnl)
 * don't use rcu_access_pointer(), use
    - local variables
    - rcu_dereference_protected() (or rather rtnl_dereference())
    - rcu_dereference()
 * actually fix it to assign the values before rcu_assign_pointer() so
they're
   all published together ...

Also, please make that a separate patch so it isn't mixed with the
functional changes.

Yes, probably. This is very new stuff to me :)

Following the examples described in Documentation/RCU/whatisRCU.txt

Hmm, I don't think that documentation says that - was where you took it
from the example of replacing? But it's only needed for freeing, not for
assigning.
