| * mac80211: handle width changes from opmode notification IE in beaconEyal Shapira2015-12-151-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An AP can send an operating channel width change in a beacon opmode notification IE as long as there's a change in the nss as well (See 802.11ac-2013 section 10.41). So don't limit updating to nss only from an opmode notification IE.

* | mac80211: rewrite remain-on-channel logicJohannes Berg2015-12-041-5/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Jouni found a bug in the remain-on-channel logic: when a short item is queued, a long item is combined with it extending the original one, and then the long item is deleted, the timeout doesn't go back to the short one, and the short item ends up taking a long time. In this case, this showed as blocking scan when running two test cases back to back - the scan from the second was delayed even though all the remain-on-channel items should long have been gone. Fixing this with the current data structures turns out to be a bit complicated, we just remove the long item from the dependents list right now and don't recalculate the timeouts. There's a somewhat similar bug where we delete the short item and all the dependents go with it; to fix this we'd have to move them from the dependents to the real list. Instead of trying to do that, rewrite the code to not have all this complexity in the data structures: use a single list and allow more than one entry in it being marked as started. This makes the code a bit more complex, the worker needs to understand that it might need to just remove one of the started items, while keeping the device off-channel, but that's not more complicated than the nested data structures. This then fixes both issues described, and makes it easier to also limit the overall off-channel time when combining. TODO: as before, with hardware remain-on-channel, deleting an item after combining results in cancelling them all - we can keep track of the time elapsed and only cancel after that to fix this.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Scheduled scan has to be reconfigured only if wowlan wasn't configured, since otherwise it should continue to run (with the 'any' trigger) or be aborted. The current code will end up asking the driver to start a new scheduled scan without stopping the previous one, and leaking some memory (from the previous request.)

* mac80211: TDLS: correctly configure SMPS stateArik Nemtsov2015-07-171-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IEEE802.11-2012 specification is vague regarding SMPS operation during TDLS. It does not define a clear way to transition between SMPS states. To avoid interop issues, set SMPS to off when TDLS peers are connected. Accomplish this by extending the definition of the AUTOMATIC state. If the driver forces a state other than OFF, disconnect all TDLS peers. While at it, avoid changing the SMPS state of the peer STA. We have no way to control it, so try and behave correctly towards it. Move the TDLS peer-teardown function to where the rest of the TDLS code resides.

* mac80211: upgrade BW of TDLS peers when possibleArik Nemtsov2015-07-171-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Define a station chandef, to be used for wider-bw TDLS peers. When both peers support the feature, upgrade the channel bandwidth to the maximum allowed by both peers and regulatory. Currently widths up to 80MHz are supported in the 5GHz band. When a TDLS peer connects/disconnects recalculate the channel type of the current chanctx. Make the chanctx width calculation consider wider-bw TDLS peers and similarly fix the max_required_bw calculation for the chanctx min_def. Since the sta->bandwidth is calculated only later on, take bss_conf.chandef.width as the minimal width for station interface.

* mac80211: don't store napi structJohannes Berg2015-07-171-5/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When introducing multiple RX queues, a single NAPI struct will not be sufficient. Instead of trying to store multiple, simply change the API to have the NAPI struct passed to the RX function. This of course means that drivers using rx_irqsafe() cannot use NAPI, but that seems a reasonable trade-off, particularly since only two of all drivers are currently using it at all. While at it, we can now remove the IEEE80211_RX_REORDER_TIMER flag again since this code path cannot have a napi struct anyway. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When LED triggers are compiled in, but not used, mac80211 will still call them to update the status. This isn't really a problem for the assoc and radio ones, but the TX/RX (and to a certain extend TPT) ones can be called very frequently (for every packet.) In order to avoid that when they're not used, track their activation and call the corresponding trigger (and in the TPT case, account for throughput) only when the trigger is actually used by an LED. Additionally, make those trigger functions inlines since theyre only used once in the remaining code. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

This makes it easier to keep the hardware queues short, and to improve fairness between clients and vifs. The task of scheduling packet transmission is left up to the driver - queueing is controlled by mac80211. Drivers can only dequeue packets by calling ieee80211_tx_dequeue. This makes it possible to add active queue management later without changing drivers using this code. This can also be used as a starting point to implement A-MSDU aggregation in a way that does not add artificially induced latency.

* mac80211: use rhashtable for station tableJohannes Berg2015-04-011-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently have a hand-rolled table with 256 entries and are using the last byte of the MAC address as the hash. This hash is obviously very fast, but collisions are easily created and we waste a lot of space in the common case of just connecting as a client to an AP where we just have a single station. The other common case of an AP is also suboptimal due to the size of the hash table and the ease of causing collisions. Convert all of this to use rhashtable with jhash, which gives us the advantage of a far better hash function (with random perturbation to avoid hash collision attacks) and of course that the hash table grows and shrinks dynamically with chain length, improving both cases above. Use a specialised hash function (using jhash, but with fixed length) to achieve better compiler optimisation as suggested by Sergey Ryazanov. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

| * mac80211: remove TX latency measurement codeJohannes Berg2015-02-281-24/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Revert commit ad38bfc916da ("mac80211: Tx frame latency statistics") (along with some follow-up fixes). This code turned out not to be as useful in the current form as we thought, and we've internally hacked it up more, but that's not very suitable for upstream (for now), and we might just do that with tracing instead. Therefore, for now at least, remove this code. We might also need to use the skb->tstamp field for the TCP performance issue, which is more important than the debugging.

* | mac80211: ignore CSA to same channelJohannes Berg2015-03-161-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the AP is confused and starts doing a CSA to the same channel, just ignore that request instead of trying to act it out since it was likely sent in error anyway. In the case of the bug I was investigating the GO was misbehaving and sending out a beacon with CSA IEs still included after having actually done the channel switch.

* | mac80211: disable u-APSD queues by defaultMichal Kazior2015-03-031-6/+17
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some APs experience problems when working with U-APSD. Decreasing the probability of that happening by using legacy mode for all ACs but VO isn't enough. Cisco 4410N originally forced us to enable VO by default only because it treated non-VO ACs as legacy. However some APs (notably Netgear R7000) silently reclassify packets to different ACs. Since u-APSD ACs require trigger frames for frame retrieval clients would never see some frames (e.g. ARP responses) or would fetch them accidentally after a long time. It makes little sense to enable u-APSD queues by default because it needs userspace applications to be aware of it to actually take advantage of the possible additional powersavings. Implicitly depending on driver autotrigger frame support doesn't make much sense.
