cfg80211: rename offchannel_chain structs to background_chain to avoid confusion with ETSI standard

2021-12-20T09:37:36Z

ETSI standard defines "Offchannel CAC" as: "Off-Channel CAC is performed by a number of non-continuous checks spread over a period in time. This period, which is required to determine the presence of radar signals, is defined as the Off-Channel CAC Time.. Minimum Off-Channel CAC Time 6 minutes and Maximum Off-Channel CAC Time 4 hours..". mac80211 implementation refers to a dedicated hw chain used for continuous radar monitoring. Rename offchannel_* references to background_* in order to avoid confusion with ETSI standard.

cfg80211: schedule offchan_cac_abort_wk in cfg80211_radar_event

2021-11-26T10:49:54Z

If necessary schedule offchan_cac_abort_wk work in cfg80211_radar_event routine adding offchan parameter to cfg80211_radar_event signature. Rename cfg80211_radar_event in __cfg80211_radar_event and introduce the two following inline helpers: - cfg80211_radar_event - cfg80211_offchan_radar_event Doing so the drv will not need to run cfg80211_offchan_cac_abort() after radar detection on the offchannel chain.

cfg80211: move offchan_cac_event to a dedicated work

In order to make cfg80211_offchan_cac_abort() (renamed from cfg80211_offchan_cac_event) callable in other contexts and without so much locking restrictions, make it trigger a new work instead of operating directly. Do some other renames while at it to clarify.

cfg80211: implement APIs for dedicated radar detection HW

2021-11-19T08:38:49Z

If a dedicated (off-channel) radar detection hardware (chain) is available in the hardware/driver, allow this to be used by calling the NL80211_CMD_RADAR_DETECT command with a new flag attribute requesting off-channel radar detection is used. Offchannel CAC (channel availability check) avoids the CAC downtime when switching to a radar channel or when turning on the AP. Drivers advertise support for this using the new feature flag NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_RADAR_OFFCHAN.

cfg80211: fix management registrations locking

2021-10-25T13:20:22Z

The management registrations locking was broken, the list was locked for each wdev, but cfg80211_mgmt_registrations_update() iterated it without holding all the correct spinlocks, causing list corruption. Rather than trying to fix it with fine-grained locking, just move the lock to the wiphy/rdev (still need the list on each wdev), we already need to hold the wdev lock to change it, so there's no contention on the lock in any case. This trivially fixes the bug since we hold one wdev's lock already, and now will hold the lock that protects all lists.

cfg80211: avoid holding the RTNL when calling the driver

2021-01-26T10:55:50Z

Currently, _everything_ in cfg80211 holds the RTNL, and if you have a slow USB device (or a few) you can get some bad lock contention on that. Fix that by re-adding a mutex to each wiphy/rdev as we had at some point, so we have locking for the wireless_dev lists and all the other things in there, and also so that drivers still don't have to worry too much about it (they still won't get parallel calls for a single device). Then, we can restrict the RTNL to a few cases where we add or remove interfaces and really need the added protection. Some of the global list management still also uses the RTNL, since we need to have it anyway for netdev management, but we only hold the RTNL for very short periods of time here.
