From 252ec2b3aa6f6a9ac29c6539027db600c11bf45e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Tue, 19 May 2015 13:36:38 +0200 Subject: mac80211: don't split remain-on-channel for coalescing Due to remain-on-channel scheduling delays, when we split an ROC while coalescing, we'll usually get a picture like this: existing ROC: |------------------| current time: ^ new ROC: |------| |-------| If the expected response frames are then transmitted by the peer in the hole between the two fragments of the new ROC, we miss them and the process (e.g. ANQP query) fails. mac80211 expects that the window to miss something is small: existing ROC: |------------------| new ROC: |------||-------| but that's normally not the case. To avoid this problem, coalesce only if the new ROC's duration is <= the remaining time on the existing one: existing ROC: |------------------| new ROC: |-----| and never split a new one but schedule it afterwards instead: existing ROC: |------------------| new ROC: |-------------| type=bugfix bug=not-tracked fixes=unknown Reported-by: Matti Gottlieb Reviewed-by: EliadX Peller Reviewed-by: Matti Gottlieb Tested-by: Matti Gottlieb Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg --- net/mac80211/cfg.c | 59 ++++++++++-------------------------------------------- 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 48 deletions(-) (limited to 'net/mac80211/cfg.c') diff --git a/net/mac80211/cfg.c b/net/mac80211/cfg.c index 265e42721a66..ff347a0eebd4 100644 --- a/net/mac80211/cfg.c +++ b/net/mac80211/cfg.c @@ -2495,51 +2495,22 @@ static bool ieee80211_coalesce_started_roc(struct ieee80211_local *local, struct ieee80211_roc_work *new_roc, struct ieee80211_roc_work *cur_roc) { - unsigned long j = jiffies; - unsigned long cur_roc_end = cur_roc->hw_start_time + - msecs_to_jiffies(cur_roc->duration); - struct ieee80211_roc_work *next_roc; - int new_dur; + unsigned long now = jiffies; + unsigned long remaining = cur_roc->hw_start_time + + msecs_to_jiffies(cur_roc->duration) - + now; if (WARN_ON(!cur_roc->started || !cur_roc->hw_begun)) return false; - if (time_after(j + IEEE80211_ROC_MIN_LEFT, cur_roc_end)) + /* if it doesn't fit entirely, schedule a new one */ + if (new_roc->duration > jiffies_to_msecs(remaining)) return false; ieee80211_handle_roc_started(new_roc); - new_dur = new_roc->duration - jiffies_to_msecs(cur_roc_end - j); - - /* cur_roc is long enough - add new_roc to the dependents list. */ - if (new_dur <= 0) { - list_add_tail(&new_roc->list, &cur_roc->dependents); - return true; - } - - new_roc->duration = new_dur; - - /* - * if cur_roc was already coalesced before, we might - * want to extend the next roc instead of adding - * a new one. - */ - next_roc = list_entry(cur_roc->list.next, - struct ieee80211_roc_work, list); - if (&next_roc->list != &local->roc_list && - next_roc->chan == new_roc->chan && - next_roc->sdata == new_roc->sdata && - !WARN_ON(next_roc->started)) { - list_add_tail(&new_roc->list, &next_roc->dependents); - next_roc->duration = max(next_roc->duration, - new_roc->duration); - next_roc->type = max(next_roc->type, new_roc->type); - return true; - } - - /* add right after cur_roc */ - list_add(&new_roc->list, &cur_roc->list); - + /* add to dependents so we send the expired event properly */ + list_add_tail(&new_roc->list, &cur_roc->dependents); return true; } @@ -2652,17 +2623,9 @@ static int ieee80211_start_roc_work(struct ieee80211_local *local, * In the offloaded ROC case, if it hasn't begun, add * this new one to the dependent list to be handled * when the master one begins.
