mac80211: introduce BSS color collision detection

2022-04-11T13:24:15Z

Add ieee80211_rx_check_bss_color_collision routine in order to introduce BSS color collision detection in mac80211 if it is not supported in HW/FW (e.g. for mt7915 chipset). Add IEEE80211_HW_DETECTS_COLOR_COLLISION flag to let the driver notify BSS color collision detection is supported in HW/FW. Set this for ath11k which apparently didn't need this code.

mac80211: remove unused macros

mac80211: Switch to a virtual time-based airtime scheduler

2021-06-23T16:12:00Z

This switches the airtime scheduler in mac80211 to use a virtual time-based scheduler instead of the round-robin scheduler used before. This has a couple of advantages: - No need to sync up the round-robin scheduler in firmware/hardware with the round-robin airtime scheduler. - If several stations are eligible for transmission we can schedule both of them; no need to hard-block the scheduling rotation until the head of the queue has used up its quantum. - The check of whether a station is eligible for transmission becomes simpler (in ieee80211_txq_may_transmit()). The drawback is that scheduling becomes slightly more expensive, as we need to maintain an rbtree of TXQs sorted by virtual time. This means that ieee80211_register_airtime() becomes O(logN) in the number of currently scheduled TXQs because it can change the order of the scheduled stations. We mitigate this overhead by only resorting when a station changes position in the tree, and hopefully N rarely grows too big (it's only TXQs currently backlogged, not all associated stations), so it shouldn't be too big of an issue. To prevent divisions in the fast path, we maintain both station sums and pre-computed reciprocals of the sums. This turns the fast-path operation into a multiplication, with divisions only happening as the number of active stations change (to re-compute the current sum of all active station weights). To prevent this re-computation of the reciprocal from happening too frequently, we use a time-based notion of station activity, instead of updating the weight every time a station gets scheduled or de-scheduled. As queues can oscillate between empty and occupied quite frequently, this can significantly cut down on the number of re-computations. It also has the added benefit of making the station airtime calculation independent on whether the queue happened to have drained at the time an airtime value was accounted.

mac80211: move interface shutdown out of wiphy lock

2021-06-09T14:09:21Z

When reconfiguration fails, we shut down everything, but we cannot call cfg80211_shutdown_all_interfaces() with the wiphy mutex held. Since cfg80211 now calls it on resume errors, we only need to do likewise for where we call reconfig (whether directly or indirectly), but not under the wiphy lock.

mac80211: fix 'reset' debugfs locking

2021-06-09T14:09:18Z

cfg80211 now calls suspend/resume with the wiphy lock held, and while there's a problem with that needing to be fixed, we should do the same in debugfs.

mac80211: Allow concurrent monitor iface and ethernet rx decap

2021-04-08T13:21:05Z

Some HW/driver can support passing ethernet rx decap frames and raw 802.11 frames for the monitor interface concurrently and via separate RX calls to mac80211. Packets going to the monitor interface(s) would be in 802.11 format and thus not have the RX_FLAG_8023 set, and 802.11 format monitoring frames should have RX_FLAG_ONLY_MONITOR set. Drivers doing such can enable the SUPPORTS_CONC_MON_RX_DECAP to allow using ethernet decap offload while a monitor interface is active, currently RX decapsulation offload gets disabled when a monitor interface is added.

mac80211: add rx decapsulation offload support

2021-01-21T12:34:49Z

This allows drivers to pass 802.3 frames to mac80211, with some restrictions: - the skb must be passed with a valid sta - fast-rx needs to be active for the sta - monitor mode needs to be disabled mac80211 will tell the driver when it is safe to enable rx decap offload for a particular station. In order to implement support, a driver must: - call ieee80211_hw_set(hw, SUPPORTS_RX_DECAP_OFFLOAD) - implement ops->sta_set_decap_offload - mark 802.3 frames with RX_FLAG_8023 If it doesn't want to enable offload for some vif types, it can mask out IEEE80211_OFFLOAD_DECAP_ENABLED in vif->offload_flags from within the .add_interface or .update_vif_offload driver ops Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201218184718.93650-6-nbd@nbd.name Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: fix incorrect strlen of .write in debugfs

2021-01-14T21:23:56Z

This fixes strlen mismatch problems happening in some .write callbacks of debugfs. When trying to configure airtime_flags in debugfs, an error appeared: ash: write error: Invalid argument The error is returned from kstrtou16() since a wrong length makes it miss the real end of input string. To fix this, use count as the string length, and set proper end of string for a char buffer. The debug print is shown - airtime_flags_write: count = 2, len = 8, where the actual length is 2, but "len = strlen(buf)" gets 8. Also cleanup the other similar cases for the sake of consistency.
