2014-05-28mac80211: reduce packet loss notifications under loadFelix Fietkau
During strong signal fluctuations under high throughput, few consecutive failed A-MPDU transmissions can easily trigger packet loss notification, and thus (in AP mode) client disconnection. Reduce the number of false positives by checking the A-MPDU status flag and treating a failed A-MPDU as a single packet.

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.

2013-09-30mac80211: update sta->last_rx on acked tx framesFelix Fietkau
When clients are idle for too long, hostapd sends nullfunc frames for probing. When those are acked by the client, the idle time needs to be updated. To make this work (and to avoid unnecessary probing), update sta->last_rx whenever an ACK was received for a tx packet. Only do this if the flag IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS is set.

2013-07-16mac80211: select and adjust bitrates according to channel modeSimon Wunderlich
The various components accessing the bitrates table must use consider the used channel bandwidth to select only available rates or calculate the bitrate correctly. There are some rates in reduced bandwidth modes which can't be represented as multiples of 500kbps, like 2.25 MBit/s in 5 MHz mode. The standard suggests to round up to the next multiple of 500kbps, just do that in mac80211 as well.

2013-02-04mac80211: mesh power save basicsMarco Porsch
Add routines to - maintain a PS mode for each peer and a non-peer PS mode - indicate own PS mode in transmitted frames - track neighbor STAs power modes - buffer frames when neighbors are in PS mode - add TIM and Awake Window IE to beacons - release frames in Mesh Peer Service Periods Add local_pm to sta_info to represent the link-specific power mode at this station towards the remote station. When a peer link is established, use the default power mode stored in mesh config. Update the PS status if the peering status of a neighbor changes. Maintain a mesh power mode for non-peer mesh STAs. Set the non-peer power mode to active mode during peering. Authenticated mesh peering is currently not working when either node is configured to be in power save mode. Indicate the current power mode in transmitted frames. Use QoS Nulls to indicate mesh power mode transitions. For performance reasons, calls to the function setting the frame flags are placed in HWMP routing routines, as there the STA pointer is already available. Add peer_pm to sta_info to represent the peer's link-specific power mode towards the local station. Add nonpeer_pm to represent the peer's power mode towards all non-peer stations. Track power modes based on received frames. Add the ps_data structure to ieee80211_if_mesh (for TIM map, PS neighbor counter and group-addressed frame buffer). Set WLAN_STA_PS flag for STA in PS mode to use the unicast frame buffering routines in the tx path. Update num_sta_ps to buffer and release group-addressed frames after DTIM beacons. Announce the awake window duration in beacons if in light or deep sleep mode towards any peer or non-peer. Create a TIM IE similarly to AP mode and add it to mesh beacons. Parse received Awake Window IEs and check TIM IEs for buffered frames. Release frames towards peers in mesh Peer Service Periods. Use the corresponding trigger frames and monitor the MPSP status. Append a QoS Null as trigger frame if neccessary to properly end the MPSP. Currently, in HT channels MPSPs behave imperfectly and show large delay spikes and frame losses.

2013-01-31mac80211: start auth/assoc timeout on frame statusJohannes Berg
When sending authentication/association frames they might take a bit of time to go out because we may have to synchronise with the AP, in particular in the case where it's really a P2P GO. In this case the 200ms fixed timeout could potentially be too short if the beacon interval is relatively large. For drivers that report TX status we can do better. Instead of starting the timeout directly, start it only when the frame status arrives. Since then the frame was out on the air, we can wait shorter (the typical response time is supposed to be 30ms, wait 100ms.) Also, if the frame failed to be transmitted try again right away instead of waiting. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2012-12-05mac80211: introduce IEEE80211_HW_TEARDOWN_AGGR_ON_BAR_FAILStanislaw Gruszka
Commit f0425beda4d404a6e751439b562100b902ba9c98 "mac80211: retry sending failed BAR frames later instead of tearing down aggr" caused regression on rt2x00 hardware (connection hangs). This regression was fixed by commit be03d4a45c09ee5100d3aaaedd087f19bc20d01 "rt2x00: Don't let mac80211 send a BAR when an AMPDU subframe fails". But the latter commit caused yet another problem reported in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42828#c22 After long discussion in this thread: http://mid.gmane.org/20121018075615.GA18212@redhat.com and testing various alternative solutions, which failed on one or other setup, we have no other good fix for the issues like just revert both mentioned earlier commits. To do not affect other hardware which benefit from commit f0425beda4d404a6e751439b562100b902ba9c98, instead of reverting it, introduce flag that when used will restore mac80211 behaviour before the commit.

2012-10-30mac80211: combine status/drop reportingJohannes Berg
The TX status reporting is done for both the nl80211 report as well as the socket option. The socket option is also reported when an skb is dropped to guarantee that the copy in the IDR tree is freed and status is reported to userspace. However, when a frame is dropped, no nl80211 status is reported. This can cause userspace to stop making progress while waiting for a status notification. Combine the nl80211 and socket option status reporting into a new function and call it in both places -- when the status comes in from the driver and when the skb is dropped. While at it, also simplify the code in the nl80211 portion a bit. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-10-17mac80211: track needed RX chains for channel contextsJohannes Berg
On each channel that the device is operating on, it may need to listen using one or more chains depending on the SMPS settings of the interfaces using it. The previous channel context changes completely removed this ability (before, it was available as the SMPS mode). Add per-context tracking of the required static and dynamic RX chains and notify the driver on changes. To achieve this, track the chains and SMPS mode used on each virtual interface and update the channel context whenever this changes. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2012-06-24mac80211: clean up debuggingJohannes Berg

2012-06-06mac80211: unify SW/offload remain-on-channelJohannes Berg
Redesign all the off-channel code, getting rid of the generic off-channel work concept, replacing it with a simple remain-on-channel list. This fixes a number of small issues with the ROC implementation: * offloaded remain-on-channel couldn't be queued, now we can queue it as well, if needed * in iwlwifi (the only user) offloaded ROC is mutually exclusive with scanning, use the new queue to handle that case -- I expect that it will later depend on a HW flag The bigger issue though is that there's a bad bug in the current implementation: if we get a mgmt TX request while HW roc is active, and this new request has a wait time, we actually schedule a software ROC instead since we can't guarantee the existing offloaded ROC will still be that long. To fix this, the queuing mechanism was needed. The queuing mechanism for offloaded ROC isn't yet optimal, ideally we should add API to have the HW extend the ROC if needed. We could add that later but for now use a software implementation. Overall, this unifies the behaviour between the offloaded and software-implemented case as much as possible.

Due to my previous patches it is now a fairly straight-forward extension. Drivers need to have accurate TX status reporting for the EOSP frame. For drivers that buffer themselves, the provided APIs allow releasing the right number of frames, but then drivers need to set EOSP and more-data themselves. This is documented in more detail in the new code itself. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
