* mac80211: fix VLAN handling with TXQsJohannes Berg2017-09-051-7/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With TXQs, the AP_VLAN interfaces are resolved to their owner AP interface when enqueuing the frame, which makes sense since the frame really goes out on that as far as the driver is concerned. However, this introduces a problem: frames to be encrypted with a VLAN-specific GTK will now be encrypted with the AP GTK, since the information about which virtual interface to use to select the key is taken from the TXQ. Fix this by preserving info->control.vif and using that in the dequeue function. This now requires doing the driver-mapping in the dequeue as well. Since there's no way to filter the frames that are sitting on a TXQ, drop all frames, which may affect other interfaces, when an AP_VLAN is removed.

* mac80211: Dynamically set CoDel parameters per stationToke Høiland-Jørgensen2017-05-171-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CoDel can be too aggressive if a station sends at a very low rate, leading reduced throughput. This gets worse the more stations are present, as each station gets more bursty the longer the round-robin scheduling between stations takes. This adds dynamic adjustment of CoDel parameters per station. It uses the rate selection information to estimate throughput and sets more lenient CoDel parameters if the estimated throughput is below a threshold (modified by the number of active stations). A new callback is added that drivers can use to notify mac80211 about changes in expected throughput, so the same adjustment can be made for cards that implement rate control in firmware. Drivers that don't use this will just get the default parameters.

* mac80211: Fix possible sband related NULL pointer de-referenceMohammed Shafi Shajakhan2017-04-281-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Existing API 'ieee80211_get_sdata_band' returns default 2 GHz band even if the channel context configuration is NULL. This crashes for chipsets which support 5 Ghz alone when it tries to access members of 'sband'. Channel context configuration can be NULL in multivif case and when channel switch is in progress (or) when it fails. Fix this by replacing the API 'ieee80211_get_sdata_band' with 'ieee80211_get_sband' which returns a NULL pointer for sband when the channel configuration is NULL. An example scenario is as below: In multivif mode (AP + STA) with drivers like ath10k, when we do a channel switch in the AP vif (which has a number of clients connected) and a STA vif which is connected to some other AP, when the channel switch in AP vif fails, while the STA vifs tries to connect to the other AP, there is a window where the channel context is NULL/invalid and this results in a crash while the clients connected to the AP vif tries to reconnect and this race is very similar to the one investigated by Michal in https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/3788161/ and this does happens with hardware that supports 5Ghz alone after long hours of testing with continuous channel switch on the AP vif ieee80211 phy0: channel context reservation cannot be finalized because some interfaces aren't switching wlan0: failed to finalize CSA, disconnecting wlan0-1: deauthenticating from 8c:fd:f0:01:54:9c by local choice (Reason: 3=DEAUTH_LEAVING) WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 19032 at net/mac80211/ieee80211_i.h:1013 sta_info_alloc+0x374/0x3fc [mac80211] [<bf77272c>] (sta_info_alloc [mac80211]) [<bf78776c>] (ieee80211_add_station [mac80211])) [<bf73cc50>] (nl80211_new_station [cfg80211]) Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000014 pgd = d5f4c000 Internal error: Oops: 17 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM PC is at sta_info_alloc+0x380/0x3fc [mac80211] LR is at sta_info_alloc+0x37c/0x3fc [mac80211] [<bf772738>] (sta_info_alloc [mac80211]) [<bf78776c>] (ieee80211_add_station [mac80211]) [<bf73cc50>] (nl80211_new_station [cfg80211])) Cc: Michal Kazior <michal.kazior@tieto.com> Signed-off-by: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <mohammed@qti.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

This call is however done after the structure is attached to mac80211 internal lists and hashes. This means mac80211 can lookup (and use) station structure before it is uploaded to a driver. If this happens (structure exists, but sta->uploaded is false) fast_tx path can still be taken. Deep in the fastpath call the sta->uploaded is checked against to derive "pubsta" argument for ieee80211_get_txq(). If sta->uploaded is false (and sta is actually non-NULL) ieee80211_get_txq() effectively downgraded to vif->txq. At first glance this may look innocent but coerces mac80211 into a state that is almost guaranteed (codel may drop offending skb) to crash because a station-oriented skb gets queued up on vif-oriented txq. The ieee80211_tx_dequeue() ends up looking at info->control.flags and tries to use txq->sta which in the fail case is NULL. It's probably pointless to pretend one can downgrade skb from sta-txq to vif-txq. Since downgrading unicast traffic to vif->txq must not be done there's no txq to put a frame on if sta->uploaded is false. Therefore the code is made to fall back to regular tx() op path if the described condition is hit. Only drivers using wake_tx_queue were affected.

If enabled, such frames are to be sent to each station separately, with the DA replaced by their own MAC address rather than the group address. Note that this may break certain expectations of the receiver, such as the ability to drop unicast IP packets received within multicast L2 frames, or the ability to not send ICMP destination unreachable messages for packets received in L2 multicast (which is required, but the receiver can't tell the difference if this new option is enabled.) This also doesn't implement the 802.11 DMS (directed multicast service).

This can lead to use-after-free and also later crashes since the real SKB's info->hw_queue doesn't get initialized properly.

That driver has a change_mtu method explicitly for sending a message to the hardware. If that fails it returns an error. Normally a driver doesn't need an ndo_change_mtu method becuase those are usually just range changes, which are now handled generically. But since this extra operation is needed in the Thunder driver, it has to stay. However, if the message send fails we have to restore the original MTU before the change because the entire call chain expects that if an error is thrown by ndo_change_mtu then the MTU did not change. Therefore code is added to nicvf_change_mtu to remember the original MTU, and to restore it upon nicvf_update_hw_max_frs() failue. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

Since some of the wifi-specific packet handling (notably sequence number and encryption handling) is sensitive to re-ordering, things break if they are applied before the TXQ. This splits up the TX handlers and fast_xmit logic into two parts: An early part and a late part. The former is applied before TXQ enqueue, and the latter after dequeue. The non-TXQ path just applies both parts at once. Because fragments shouldn't be split up or reordered, the fragmentation handler is run after dequeue. Any fragments are then kept in the TXQ and on subsequent dequeues they take precedence over dequeueing from the FQ structure. This approach avoids having to scatter special cases all over the place for when TXQ is enabled, at the cost of making the fast_xmit and TX handler code slightly more complex.

If VHT is not supported by the PHY, having more than 4 MBytes of total queue in the TXQ intermediate queues is not needed, and so we can safely limit the memory usage in these cases and avoid OOM.

* | mac80211: Re-structure aqm debugfs output and keep CoDel stats per txqToke Høiland-Jørgensen2016-09-131-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the 'aqm' stats in mac80211 only keeps overlimit drop stats, not CoDel stats. This moves the CoDel stats into the txqi structure to keep them per txq in order to show them in debugfs. In addition, the aqm debugfs output is restructured by splitting it up into three files: One global per phy, one per netdev and one per station, in the appropriate directories. The files are all called aqm, and are only created if the driver supports the wake_tx_queue op (rather than emitting an error on open as previously).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is no other limit other than a global packet count limit when using software queuing. This means a single flow queue can grow insanely long. This is particularly bad for TCP congestion algorithms which requires a little more sophisticated frame dropping scheme than a mere headdrop on limit overflow. Hence apply (a slighly modified, to fit the knobs) CoDel5 on flow queues. This improves TCP convergence and stability when combined with wireless driver which keeps its own tx queue/fifo at a minimum fill level for given link conditions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since we enqueued the frame that was supposed to be sent during the SP, and that frame may very well cary the IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP bit, we may never close the SP (WLAN_STA_SP will never be cleared). If that happens, we will not open any new SP and will never respond to any poll frame from the client. Clear WLAN_STA_SP manually if a frame that was polled during the SP is queued because of a starting A-MPDU session. The client may not see the EOSP bit, but it will at least be able to poll new frames in another SP.

If we try to start an A-MPDU session while the peer is sleeping and polling frames with U-APSD, we may have frames that will be buffered by ieee80211_tx_prep_agg. These frames have IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER set since they are sent to a sleeping client and possibly IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP. If the frame is buffered, we need clear these two flags since they will be re-sent after the move to HT_AGG_STATE_OPERATIONAL state which is very likely to happen after the SP ends.
