From 18998c381b19bfc3c285361ff6200ded7444aa2c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eliad Peller Date: Wed, 10 Sep 2014 14:07:34 +0300 Subject: cfg80211: allow requesting SMPS mode on ap start Add feature bits to indicate device support for static-smps and dynamic-smps modes. Add a new NL80211_ATTR_SMPS_MODE attribue to allow configuring the smps mode to be used by the ap (e.g. configuring to ap to dynamic smps mode will reduce power consumption while having minor effect on throughput) Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg --- net/wireless/nl80211.c | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 24 insertions(+) (limited to 'net') diff --git a/net/wireless/nl80211.c b/net/wireless/nl80211.c index e8114c7a37e3..4cce3e17964d 100644 --- a/net/wireless/nl80211.c +++ b/net/wireless/nl80211.c @@ -394,6 +394,7 @@ static const struct nla_policy nl80211_policy[NL80211_ATTR_MAX+1] = { [NL80211_ATTR_TSID] = { .type = NLA_U8 }, [NL80211_ATTR_USER_PRIO] = { .type = NLA_U8 }, [NL80211_ATTR_ADMITTED_TIME] = { .type = NLA_U16 }, + [NL80211_ATTR_SMPS_MODE] = { .type = NLA_U8 }, }; /* policy for the key attributes */ @@ -3345,6 +3346,29 @@ static int nl80211_start_ap(struct sk_buff *skb, struct genl_info *info) return PTR_ERR(params.acl); } + if (info->attrs[NL80211_ATTR_SMPS_MODE]) { + params.smps_mode = + nla_get_u8(info->attrs[NL80211_ATTR_SMPS_MODE]); + switch (params.smps_mode) { + case NL80211_SMPS_OFF: + break; + case NL80211_SMPS_STATIC: + if (!(rdev->wiphy.features & + NL80211_FEATURE_STATIC_SMPS)) + return -EINVAL; + break; + case NL80211_SMPS_DYNAMIC: + if (!(rdev->wiphy.features & + NL80211_FEATURE_DYNAMIC_SMPS)) + return -EINVAL; + break; + default: + return -EINVAL; + } + } else { + params.smps_mode = NL80211_SMPS_OFF; + } + wdev_lock(wdev); err = rdev_start_ap(rdev, dev, ¶ms); if (!err) { -- cgit v1.2.3
