| * mac80211: keep a separate list of monitor interfaces that are upJohannes Berg2017-04-181-2/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In addition to keeping monitor interfaces on the regular list of interfaces, keep those that are up and not in cooked mode on a separate list. This saves having to iterate all interfaces when delivering to monitor interfaces. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* | mac80211: unconditionally start new netdev queues with iTXQ supportJohannes Berg2017-03-291-1/+2
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | When internal mac80211 TXQs aren't supported, netdev queues must always started out started even when driver queues are stopped while the interface is added. This is necessary because with the internal TXQ support netdev queues are never stopped and packet scheduling/dropping is done in mac80211.

| * mac80211: recalculate min channel width on VHT opmode changesJohannes Berg2017-01-111-0/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an associated station changes its VHT operating mode this can/will affect the bandwidth it's using, and consequently we must recalculate the minimum bandwidth we need to use. Failure to do so can lead to one of two scenarios: 1) we use a too high bandwidth, this is benign 2) we use a too narrow bandwidth, causing rate control and actual PHY configuration to be out of sync, which can in turn cause problems/crashes Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* | net: make ndo_get_stats64 a void functionstephen hemminger2017-01-081-3/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | The network device operation for reading statistics is only called in one place, and it ignores the return value. Having a structure return value is potentially confusing because some future driver could incorrectly assume that the return value was used. Fix all drivers with ndo_get_stats64 to have a void function. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <sthemmin@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * mac80211: filter multicast data packets on AP / AP_VLANMichael Braun2016-10-121-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds filtering for multicast data packets on AP_VLAN interfaces that have no authorized station connected and changes filtering on AP interfaces to not count stations assigned to AP_VLAN interfaces. This saves airtime and avoids waking up other stations currently authorized in this BSS. When using WPA, the packets dropped could not be decrypted by any station. The behaviour when there are no AP_VLAN interfaces is left unchanged. When there are AP_VLAN interfaces, this patch 1. adds filtering multicast data packets sent on AP_VLAN interfaces that have no authorized station connected. No filtering happens on 4addr AP_VLAN interfaces. 2. makes filtering of multicast data packets sent on AP interfaces depend on the number of authorized stations in this bss not assigned to an AP_VLAN interface. Therefore, a new num_mcast_sta counter is added for AP_VLAN interfaces. The existing one for AP interfaces is altered to not track stations assigned to an AP_VLAN interface. The new counter is exposed in debugfs.

* mac80211: implement fair queueing per txqMichal Kazior2016-06-091-7/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mac80211's software queues were designed to work very closely with device tx queues. They are required to make use of 802.11 packet aggregation easily and efficiently. Due to the way 802.11 aggregation is designed it only makes sense to keep fair queuing as close to hardware as possible to reduce induced latency and inertia and provide the best flow responsiveness. This change doesn't translate directly to immediate and significant gains. End result depends on driver's induced latency. Best results can be achieved if driver keeps its own tx queue/fifo fill level to a minimum.

* mac80211: skip netdev queue control with software queuingMichal Kazior2016-06-091-3/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Qdiscs are designed with no regard to 802.11 aggregation requirements and hand out packet-by-packet with no guarantee they are destined to the same tid. This does more bad than good no matter how fairly a given qdisc may behave on an ethernet interface. Software queuing used per-AC netdev subqueue congestion control whenever a global AC limit was hit. This meant in practice a single station or tid queue could starve others rather easily. This could resonate with qdiscs in a bad way or could just end up with poor aggregation performance. Increasing the AC limit would increase induced latency which is also bad. Disabling qdiscs by default and performing taildrop instead of netdev subqueue congestion control on the other hand makes it possible for tid queues to fill up "in the meantime" while preventing stations starving each other. This increases aggregation opportunities and should allow software queuing based drivers achieve better performance by utilizing airtime more efficiently with big aggregates.

The existing path table lifetime is instead tied to the mesh BSS which can cause crashes when different MBSSes are joined in the context of a single interface, or when the path table is dumped when no MBSS is joined. Introduce a new function to perform the final teardown of the interface and perform path table cleanup there. We already free the individual path elements when the leaving the mesh so no additional cleanup is needed there.

Since we can't tx frames until the BA agreement setup is complete, it might result in a very large latency during scan. Fix this by allowing to process queued skbs while scanning in HW. This should be ok since the devices which support hw scan should be able to handle tx/rx while scanning. During SW scan, mac80211 drops any txed frames besides probes and NDPs, so it is still needed to delay processing of the queued frames till the SW scan is done.

* mac80211: shut down interfaces before destroying interface listJohannes Berg2015-07-171-11/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the hardware is unregistered while interfaces are up, mac80211 will unregister all interfaces, which in turns causes mac80211 to be called again to remove them all from the driver and eventually shut down the hardware. During this shutdown, however, it's currently already unsafe to iterate the list of interfaces atomically, as the list is manipulated in an unsafe manner. This puts an undue burden on the driver - it must stop all its activities before calling ieee80211_unregister_hw(), while in the normal stop path it can do all cleanup in the stop method. If, for example, it's using the iteration during RX for some reason, it would have to stop RX before unregistering to avoid crashes. Fix this problem by closing all interfaces before unregistering them. This will cause the driver stop to have completed before we manipulate the interface list, and after the driver is stopped *and* has called ieee80211_unregister_hw() it really musn't be iterating any more as the memory will be freed as well.

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.

Then suspended is set. The code makes sure there is no window without any of these flags. The problem is that workers can still be enqueued while we are quiescing. This leads to situations where the driver is already suspending and other flows like disassociation are handled by a worker. To fix this, we need to check quiescing and suspended flags in the worker itself and not only before enqueueing it. I also add here extensive documentation to ease the understanding of these complex issues.
