2014-09-03mac80211: fix offloaded BA session traffic after hw restartMichal Kazior
When starting an offloaded BA session it is unknown what starting sequence number should be used. Using last_seq worked in most cases except after hw restart. When hw restart is requested last_seq is (rightfully so) kept unmodified. This ended up with BA sessions being restarted with an aribtrary BA window values resulting in dropped frames until sequence numbers caught up. Instead of last_seq pick seqno of a first Rxed frame of a given BA session. This fixes stalled traffic after hw restart with offloaded BA sessions (currently only ath10k).

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next John W. Linville says: ==================== pull request: wireless-next 2014-07-25 Please pull this batch of updates intended for the 3.17 stream! For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "We have a lot of TDLS patches, among them a fix that should make hwsim tests happy again. The rest, this time, is mostly small fixes." For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says: "Some more patches for 3.17. The most important change here is the move of the 6lowpan code to net/6lowpan. It has been agreed with Davem that this change will go through the bluetooth tree. The rest are mostly clean up and fixes." and, "Here follows some more patches for 3.17. These are mostly fixes to what we've sent to you before for next merge window." For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I have the usual amount of BT Coex stuff. Arik continues to work on TDLS and Ariej contributes a few things for HS2.0. I added a few more things to the firmware debugging infrastructure. Eran fixes a small bug - pretty normal content." And for the Atheros bits, Kalle says: "For ath6kl me and Jessica added support for ar6004 hw3.0, our latest version of ar6004. For ath10k Janusz added a printout so that it's easier to check what ath10k kconfig options are enabled. He also added a debugfs file to configure maximum amsdu and ampdu values. Also we had few fixes as usual." On top of that is the usual large batch of various driver updates -- brcmfmac, mwifiex, the TI drivers, and wil6210 all get some action. Rafał has also been very busy with b43 and related updates. Also, I pulled the wireless tree into this in order to resolve a merge conflict... P.S. The change to fs/compat_ioctl.c reflects a name change in a Bluetooth header file... ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Sometimes different vifs may be stopping the queues for the same reason (e.g. when several interfaces are performing a channel switch). Instead of using a bitmask for the reasons, use an integer that holds a refcount instead.

2014-05-06mac80211: fix CSA tx queue stoppingMichal Kazior
It was possible for tx queues to be stuck stopped if AP CSA finalization failed. In that case neither stop_ap nor do_stop woke the queues up. This means it was impossible to perform tx at all until driver was reloaded or a successful CSA was performed later. It was possible to solve this in a simpler manner however this is more robust and future proof (having multi-vif CSA in mind). New sdata->csa_block_tx is introduced to keep track of which interfaces requested tx to be blocked for CSA. This is required because mac80211 stops all tx queues for that purpose. This means queues must be awoken only when last tx-blocking CSA interface is finished. It is still possible to have tx queues stopped after CSA failure but as soon as offending interfaces are stopped from userspace (stop_ap or ifdown) tx queues are woken up properly.

This is required for future chanctx reservation that re-bind vifs to new chanctx. This requires safe AP VLAN iteration without RTNL.

2014-02-17netdevice: add queue selection fallback handler for ndo_select_queueDaniel Borkmann
Add a new argument for ndo_select_queue() callback that passes a fallback handler. This gets invoked through netdev_pick_tx(); fallback handler is currently __netdev_pick_tx() as most drivers invoke this function within their customized implementation in case for skbs that don't need any special handling. This fallback handler can then be replaced on other call-sites with different queue selection methods (e.g. in packet sockets, pktgen etc). This also has the nice side-effect that __netdev_pick_tx() is then only invoked from netdev_pick_tx() and export of that function to modules can be undone. Suggested-by: David S.

2014-01-10net: core: explicitly select a txq before doing l2 forwardingJason Wang
Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The will cause several issues: - NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or control path. - dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device watchdog. - dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash when tso is disabled for lower device. Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2 forwarding transmission. With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission. In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it provides a necessary synchronization method.

2013-12-19mac80211: fix iflist_mtx/mtx locking in radar detectionJohannes Berg
The scan code creates an iflist_mtx -> mtx locking dependency, and a few other places, notably radar detection, were creating the opposite dependency, causing lockdep to complain. As scan and radar detection are mutually exclusive, the deadlock can't really happen in practice, but it's still bad form. A similar issue exists in the monitor mode code, but this is only used by channel-context drivers right now and those have to have hardware scan, so that also can't happen. Still, fix these issues by making some of the channel context code require the mtx to be held rather than acquiring it, thus allowing the monitor/radar callers to keep the iflist_mtx->mtx lock ordering. While at it, also fix access to the local->scanning variable in the radar code, and document that radar_detect_enabled is now properly protected by the mtx. All this would now introduce an ABBA deadlock between the DFS work cancelling and local->mtx, so change the locking there a bit to not need to use cancel_delayed_work_sync() but be able to just use cancel_delayed_work(). The work is also safely stopped/removed when the interface is stopped, so no extra changes are needed.

2013-12-03Revert "mac80211: add driver callback for per-interface multicast filter"Johannes Berg
This reverts commit 488b366a452934141959384c7a1b52b22d6154ef. The code isn't used by anyone, and the Intel driver isn't planning to use it either right now. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-12-02mac80211: remove sta_info_flush() from interface teardownJohannes Berg
All interface types now properly clean up their stations using some form of sta_info_flush() themselves, so there's no need to try it again at teardown. Remove the call to get rid of the extra delay from the synchronize_net() and rcu_barrier() calls.

2013-11-25mac80211: add generic cipher scheme supportMax Stepanov
This adds generic cipher scheme support to mac80211, such schemes are fully under control by the driver. On hw registration drivers may specify additional HW ciphers with a scheme how these ciphers have to be handled by mac80211 TX/RR. A cipher scheme specifies a cipher suite value, a size of the security header to be added to or stripped from frames and how the PN is to be verified on RX.

2013-11-25cfg80211/mac80211: DFS setup chandef for cac eventJanusz Dziedzic
To report channel width correctly we have to send correct channel parameters from mac80211 when calling cfg80211_cac_event(). This is required in case of using channel width higher than 20MHz and we have to set correct dfs channel state after CAC (NL80211_DFS_AVAILABLE).

2013-11-25mac80211: fix crash when using AP VLAN interfacesFelix Fietkau
Commit "mac80211: implement SMPS for AP" applies to AP_VLAN as well. It assumes that sta->sdata->vif.bss_conf.bssid is present, which did not get set for AP_VLAN. Initialize it to sdata->vif.addr like for other interface types. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-10-28mac80211: implement SMPS for APEmmanuel Grumbach
When the driver requests to move to STATIC or DYNAMIC SMPS, we send an action frame to each associated station and reconfigure the channel context / driver. Of course, non-MIMO stations are ignored. The beacon isn't updated. The association response will include the original capabilities. Stations that associate while in non-OFF SMPS mode will get an action frame right after association to inform them about our current state. Note that we wait until the end of the EAPOL. Sending an action frame before the EAPOL is finished can be an issue for a few clients. Clients aren't likely to send EAPOL frames in MIMO anyway. When the SMPS configuration gets more permissive (e.g. STATIC -> OFF), we don't wake up stations that are asleep We remember that they don't know about the change and send the action frame when they wake up. When the SMPS configuration gets more restrictive (e.g. OFF -> STATIC), we set the TIM bit for every sleeping STA. uAPSD stations might send MIMO until they poll the action frame, but this is for a short period of time.

2013-09-26mac80211: add support for CSA in IBSS modeSimon Wunderlich
This function adds the channel switch announcement implementation for the IBSS code. It is triggered by userspace (mac80211/cfg) or by external channel switch announcement, which have to be adopted. Both CSAs in beacons and action frames are supported. As for AP mode, the channel switch is applied after some time. However in IBSS mode, the channel switch IEs are generated in the kernel.

2013-08-26mac80211: fix change_interface queue assignmentsJohannes Berg
Jouni reported that with mac80211_hwsim, multicast TX was causing crashes due to invalid vif->cab_queue assignment. It turns out that this is caused by change_interface() getting invoked and not having the vif->type/vif->p2p assigned correctly before calling the queue check (ieee80211_check_queues). Fix this by passing the 'external' interface type to the function and adjusting it accordingly. While at it, also fix the error path in change_interface, it wasn't correctly resetting to the external type but using the internal one instead. Fortunately this affects on hwsim because all other drivers set the vif->type/vif->p2p variables when changing iftype. This shouldn't be needed, but almost all implementations actually do it for their own internal handling. Reported-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-08-01mac80211: add channel switch command and beacon callbacksSimon Wunderlich
The count field in CSA must be decremented with each beacon transmitted. This patch implements the functionality for drivers using ieee80211_beacon_get(). Other drivers must call back manually after reaching count == 0. This patch also contains the handling and finish worker for the channel switch command, and mac80211/chanctx code to allow to change a channel definition of an active channel context.
