* mac80211: disconnect when user changes channelJohannes Berg2009-06-151-25/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we do not disconnect when a channel switch is requested, we end up eventually detection beacon loss from the AP and then disconnecting, without ever really telling the AP, so we might just as well disconnect right away. Additionally, this fixes a problem with iwlwifi where the driver will clear some internal state on channel changes like this and then get confused when we actually go clear that state from mac80211. It may look like this patch drops the no-IBSS check, but that is already handled by cfg80211 in the wext handler it provides for IBSS (cfg80211_ibss_wext_siwfreq).

* mac80211: do not pass PS frames out of mac80211 againJohannes Berg2009-06-101-0/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to handle powersave frames properly we had needed to pass these out to the device queues again, and introduce the skb->requeue bit. This, however, also has unnecessary overhead by needing to 'clean up' already tried frames, and this clean-up code is also buggy when software encryption is used. Instead of sending the frames via the master netdev queue again, simply put them into the pending queue. This also fixes a problem where frames for that particular station could be reordered when some were still on the software queues and older ones are re-injected into the software queue after them.

* cfg80211: add rfkill supportJohannes Berg2009-06-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | To be easier on drivers and users, have cfg80211 register an rfkill structure that drivers can access. When soft-killed, simply take down all interfaces; when hard-killed the driver needs to notify us and we will take down the interfaces after the fact. While rfkilled, interfaces cannot be set UP.

* wireless: move some utility functions from mac80211 to cfg80211Zhu Yi2009-05-221-73/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | The patch moves some utility functions from mac80211 to cfg80211. Because these functions are doing generic 802.11 operations so they are not mac80211 specific. The moving allows some fullmac drivers to be also benefit from these utility functions.

* mac80211: cancel/restart all timers across suspend/resumeJohannes Berg2009-05-201-0/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We forgot to cancel all timers in mac80211 when suspending. In particular we forgot to deal with some things that can cause hardware reconfiguration -- while it is down. While at it we go ahead and add a warning in ieee80211_sta_work() if its run while the suspend->resume cycle is in effect. This should not happen and if it does it would indicate there is a bug lurking in either mac80211 or mac80211 drivers. With this now wpa_supplicant doesn't blink when I go to suspend and resume where as before there where issues with some timers running during the suspend->resume cycle. This caused a lot of incorrect assumptions and would at times bring back the device in an incoherent, but mostly recoverable, state. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

* mac80211: set default QoS values according to specJohannes Berg2009-05-111-12/+48
| | | | | | | | | | | We've never really cared about the default QoS (WMM) values, but we really should if the AP doesn't send any. This patch makes mac80211 use the default values according to 802.11-2007, and additionally syncs the default values when we disassociate so whatever the last AP said gets "unconfigured".

To ease that adjust struct ieee80211_tim_ie to have a virtual bitmap of size at least 1. Also check that the TIM IE is actually present before trying to parse it! Because other people may need the function, make it a static inline in ieee80211.h. (The original "mac80211: validate TIM IE length" was a minimal fix for 2.6.30.

* mac80211: implement beacon filtering in softwareJohannes Berg2009-04-221-2/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Regardless of whether the hardware implements beacon filtering, there's no need to process all beacons in software all the time throughout the stack (mac80211 does a lot, then cfg80211, then in the future possibly userspace). This patch implements the "best possible" beacon filtering in mac80211. "Best possible" means that it can look for changes in all requested information elements, and distinguish vendor IEs by their OUI. In the future, we will add nl80211 API for userspace to request information elements and vendor IE OUIs to watch -- drivers can then implement the best they can do while software implements it fully. It is unclear whether or not this actually saves CPU time, but the data is all in the cache already so it should be fairly cheap. The additional _testing_, however, has great benefit; Without this, and on hardware that doesn't implement beacon filtering, wrong assumptions about, for example, scan result updates could quickly creep into code.

* mac80211: add hardware restart functionJohannes Berg2009-04-221-0/+118
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some hardware defects may require the hardware to be re-initialised completely from scratch. Drivers would need much information (for instance the current MAC address, crypto keys, beaconing information, etc.) stored duplicated from mac80211 to be able to do this, so let mac80211 help them. The new ieee80211_restart_hw() function requires the same code as resuming, so move that code into a new ieee80211_reconfig() function in util.c and leave only the suspend code in pm.c.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes all the virtual A-MPDU-queue bookkeeping from mac80211. Curiously, iwlwifi already does its own bookkeeping, so it doesn't require much changes except where it needs to handle starting and stopping the queues in mac80211. To handle the queue stop/wake properly, we rewrite the software queue number for aggregation frames and internally to iwlwifi keep track of the queues that map into the same AC queue, and only talk to mac80211 about the AC queue. The implementation requires calling two new functions, iwl_stop_queue and iwl_wake_queue instead of the mac80211 counterparts.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fragmentation currently uses an allocated array to store the fragment skbs, and then keeps track of which have been sent and which are still pending etc. This is rather complicated; make it simpler by just chaining the fragments into skb->next and removing from that list when sent. Also simplifies all code that needs to touch fragments, since it now only needs to walk the skb->next list.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The functionality that NL80211_CMD_SET_MGMT_EXTRA_IE provided can now be achieved with cleaner design by adding IE(s) into NL80211_CMD_TRIGGER_SCAN, NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE, NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE, NL80211_CMD_DEAUTHENTICATE, and NL80211_CMD_DISASSOCIATE. Since this is a very recently added command and there are no known (or known planned) applications using NL80211_CMD_SET_MGMT_EXTRA_IE and taken into account how much extra complexity it adds to the IE processing we have now (and need to add in the future to fix IE order in couple of frames), it looks like the best option is to just remove the implementation of this command for now.

* mac80211: split IBSS/managed codeJohannes Berg2009-02-271-0/+176
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch splits out the ibss code and data from managed (station) mode. The reason to do this is to better separate the state machines, and have the code be contained better so it gets easier to determine what exactly a given change will affect, that in turn makes it easier to understand. This is quite some churn, especially because I split sdata->u.sta into sdata->u.mgd and sdata->u.ibss, but I think it's easier to maintain that way. I've also shuffled around some code -- null function sending is only applicable to managed interfaces so put that into that file, some other functions are needed from various places so put them into util, and also rearranged the prototypes in ieee80211_i.h accordingly.

* mac80211: fix aggregation for hardware with ampdu queuesJohannes Berg2009-02-271-13/+62
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hardware with AMPDU queues currently has broken aggregation. This patch fixes it by making all A-MPDUs go over the regular AC queues, but keeping track of the hardware queues in mac80211. As a first rough version, it actually stops the AC queue for extended periods of time, which can be removed by adding buffering internal to mac80211, but is currently not a huge problem because people rarely use multiple TIDs that are in the same AC (and iwlwifi currently doesn't operate as AP). This is a short-term fix, my current medium-term plan, which I hope to execute soon as well, but am not sure can finish before .30, looks like this: 1) rework the internal queuing layer in mac80211 that we use for fragments if the driver stopped queue in the middle of a fragmented frame to be able to queue more frames at once (rather than just a single frame with its fragments) 2) instead of stopping the entire AC queue, queue up the frames in a per-station/per-TID queue during aggregation session initiation, when the session has come up take all those frames and put them onto the queue from 1) 3) push the ampdu queue layer abstraction this patch introduces in mac80211 into the driver, and remove the virtual queue stuff from mac80211 again This plan will probably also affect ath9k in that mac80211 queues the frames instead of passing them down, even when there are no ampdu queues.

* mac80211: fix virtual interfaces vs. injectionJohannes Berg2008-09-151-12/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, virtual interface pointers passed to drivers might be from monitor interfaces and as such completely uninitialised because we do not tell the driver about monitor interfaces when those are created. Instead of passing them, we should therefore indicate to the driver that there is no information; do that by passing a NULL value and adjust drivers to cope with it. As a result, some mac80211 API functions also need to cope with a NULL vif pointer so drivers can still call them unconditionally. Also, when injecting frames we really don't want to pass NULL all the time, if we know we are the source address of a frame and have a local interface for that address, we can to use that interface. This also helps with processing the frame correctly for that interface which will help the 802.11w implementation. It's not entirely correct for VLANs or WDS interfaces because there the MAC address isn't unique, but it's already a lot better than what we do now. Finally, when injecting without a matching local interface, don't assign sequence numbers at all. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | Drivers need to know the basic rateset to be able to configure the ACK/CTS programming in hardware correctly. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* mac80211: clean up scan namespaceJohannes Berg2008-09-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Most of the scan functions are called ieee80211_sta_scan_* or similar, make clean it up so they are all just called ieee80211_scan_*. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* mac80211: move ieee80211_set_freq to utilsJohannes Berg2008-09-151-0/+28
| | | | | | | It really doesn't belong into the wireless extensions code. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* mac80211: move frame TX functionJohannes Berg2008-09-111-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | The ieee80211_sta_tx function isn't MLME code any more, it's getting used by a lot of code. Move it to utils and rename it to ieee80211_tx_skb. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* mac80211: initialise queue QoS parameters at hw startJohannes Berg2008-09-111-0/+26
| | | | | | | | | | When hardware is started it might be in a confused state with respect to queue QoS parameters. This patch changes mac80211 to set sane defaults right after the hardware is brought up.

* mac80211: move IE parsing to util fileJohannes Berg2008-09-111-0/+144
| | | | | | | | | Since IE parsing is required for the mlme and mesh code, it's not a static function anyway, and it's much better to have it in util rather than the overly large mlme.c Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* mac80211: remove ieee80211_get_hdrlenHarvey Harrison2008-08-221-39/+0
| | | | | | | | All users have been moved over to the version taking a le16 frame control rather than a cpu-endian value. Signed-off-by: Harvey Harrison <harvey.harrison@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* mac80211: add ieee80211_queue_stopped)Tomas Winkler2008-08-221-0/+7
| | | | | | | | This patch adds ieee80211_queue_stopped that let drivers to query queue status Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* mac80211: fix fragmentation kludgeTomas Winkler2008-08-011-0/+1

* mac80211: Reimplement WME using ->select_queue().David S. Miller2008-07-171-12/+2
| | | | | | | | | | The only behavior change is that we do not drop packets under any circumstances. If that is absolutely needed, we could easily add it back. With cleanups and help from Johannes Berg. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
