2019-08-21nl80211: Add support for EDMG channelsAlexei Avshalom Lazar1-2/+4
802.11ay specification defines Enhanced Directional Multi-Gigabit (EDMG) STA and AP which allow channel bonding of 2 channels and more. Introduce new NL attributes that are needed for enabling and configuring EDMG support. Two new attributes are used by kernel to publish driver's EDMG capabilities to the userspace: NL80211_BAND_ATTR_EDMG_CHANNELS - bitmap field that indicates the 2.16 GHz channel(s) that are supported by the driver. When this attribute is not set it means driver does not support EDMG. NL80211_BAND_ATTR_EDMG_BW_CONFIG - represent the channel bandwidth configurations supported by the driver. Additional two new attributes are used by the userspace for connect command and for AP configuration: NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_EDMG_CHANNELS NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_EDMG_BW_CONFIG New rate info flag - RATE_INFO_FLAGS_EDMG, can be reported from driver and used for bitrate calculation that will take into account EDMG according to the 802.11ay specification.

2019-01-19mac80211: Add airtime accounting and scheduling to TXQsToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-0/+6
This adds airtime accounting and scheduling to the mac80211 TXQ scheduler. A new callback, ieee80211_sta_register_airtime(), is added that drivers can call to report airtime usage for stations. When airtime information is present, mac80211 will schedule TXQs (through ieee80211_next_txq()) in a way that enforces airtime fairness between active stations. This scheduling works the same way as the ath9k in-driver airtime fairness scheduling. If no airtime usage is reported by the driver, the scheduler will default to round-robin scheduling. For drivers that don't control TXQ scheduling in software, a new API function, ieee80211_txq_may_transmit(), is added which the driver can use to check if the TXQ is eligible for transmission, or should be throttled to enforce fairness. Calls to this function must also be enclosed in ieee80211_txq_schedule_{start,end}() calls to ensure proper locking. The API ieee80211_txq_may_transmit() also ensures that TXQ list will be aligned aginst driver's own round-robin scheduler list. i.e it rotates the TXQ list till it makes the requested node becomes the first entry in TXQ list. Thus both the TXQ list and driver's list are in sync.

2018-12-19mac80211: free skb fraglist before freeing the skbSara Sharon1-0/+5
mac80211 uses the frag list to build AMSDU. When freeing the skb, it may not be really freed, since someone is still holding a reference to it. In that case, when TCP skb is being retransmitted, the pointer to the frag list is being reused, while the data in there is no longer valid. Since we will never get frag list from the network stack, as mac80211 doesn't advertise the capability, we can safely free and nullify it before releasing the SKB.

2018-10-12mac80211: implement ieee80211_tx_rate_update to update rateAnilkumar Kolli1-0/+19
Current mac80211 has provision to update tx status through ieee80211_tx_status() and ieee80211_tx_status_ext(). But drivers like ath10k updates the tx status from the skb except txrate, txrate will be updated from a different path, peer stats. Using ieee80211_tx_status_ext() in two different paths (one for the stats, one for the tx rate) would duplicate the stats instead. To avoid this stats duplication, ieee80211_tx_rate_update() is implemented.

2018-09-10mac80211: fix TX status reporting for ieee80211sYuan-Chi Pang1-1/+3
TX status reporting to ieee80211s is through ieee80211s_update_metric. There are two problems about ieee80211s_update_metric: 1. The purpose is to estimate the fail probability to a specific link. No need to restrict to data frame. 2. Current implementation does not work if wireless driver does not pass tx_status with skb. Fix this by removing ieee80211_is_data condition, passing ieee80211_tx_status directly to ieee80211s_update_metric, and putting it in both __ieee80211_tx_status and ieee80211_tx_status_ext.

Make these functions return void * and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the following spatch: @@ expression SKB, LEN; typedef u8; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; @@ - *(fn(SKB, LEN)) + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN) @@ expression E, SKB, LEN; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; type T; @@ - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN))) + E = fn(SKB, LEN) @@ expression SKB, LEN; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; @@ - fn(SKB, LEN)[0] + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN) Note that the last part there converts from push(...)[0] to the more idiomatic *(u8 *)push(...).

2017-04-26mac80211: don't parse encrypted management frames in ieee80211_frame_ackedEmmanuel Grumbach1-0/+1
ieee80211_frame_acked is called when a frame is acked by the peer. In case this is a management frame, we check if this an SMPS frame, in which case we can update our antenna configuration. When we parse the management frame we look at the category in case it is an action frame. That byte sits after the IV in case the frame was encrypted. This means that if the frame was encrypted, we basically look at the IV instead of looking at the category. It is then theorically possible that we think that an SMPS action frame was acked where really we had another frame that was encrypted. Since the only management frame whose ack needs to be tracked is the SMPS action frame, and that frame is not a robust management frame, it will never be encrypted. The easiest way to fix this problem is then to not look at frames that were encrypted.

Pull IDR rewrite from Matthew Wilcox: "The most significant part of the following is the patch to rewrite the IDR & IDA to be clients of the radix tree. But there's much more, including an enhancement of the IDA to be significantly more space efficient, an IDR & IDA test suite, some improvements to the IDR API (and driver changes to take advantage of those improvements), several improvements to the radix tree test suite and RCU annotations. The IDR & IDA rewrite had a good spin in linux-next and Andrew's tree for most of the last cycle. Coupled with the IDR test suite, I feel pretty confident that any remaining bugs are quite hard to hit. 0-day did a great job of watching my git tree and pointing out problems; as it hit them, I added new test-cases to be sure not to be caught the same way twice" Willy goes on to expand a bit on the IDR rewrite rationale: "The radix tree and the IDR use very similar data structures. Merging the two codebases lets us share the memory allocation pools, and results in a net deletion of 500 lines of code. It also opens up the possibility of exposing more of the features of the radix tree to users of the IDR (and I have some interesting patches along those lines waiting for 4.12) It also shrinks the size of the 'struct idr' from 40 bytes to 24 which will shrink a fair few data structures that embed an IDR" * 'idr-4.11' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax: (32 commits) radix tree test suite: Add config option for map shift idr: Add missing __rcu annotations radix-tree: Fix __rcu annotations radix-tree: Add rcu_dereference and rcu_assign_pointer calls radix tree test suite: Run iteration tests for longer radix tree test suite: Fix split/join memory leaks radix tree test suite: Fix leaks in regression2.c radix tree test suite: Fix leaky tests radix tree test suite: Enable address sanitizer radix_tree_iter_resume: Fix out of bounds error radix-tree: Store a pointer to the root in each node radix-tree: Chain preallocated nodes through ->parent radix tree test suite: Dial down verbosity with -v radix tree test suite: Introduce kmalloc_verbose idr: Return the deleted entry from idr_remove radix tree test suite: Build separate binaries for some tests ida: Use exceptional entries for small IDAs ida: Move ida_bitmap to a percpu variable Reimplement IDR and IDA using the radix tree radix-tree: Add radix_tree_iter_delete ...

When running a BA session, the driver (or the hardware) already takes care of retransmitting failed frames, since it has to keep the receiver reorder window in sync.

2016-09-20mac80211: Use rhltable instead of rhashtableHerbert Xu1-5/+2
mac80211 currently uses rhashtable with insecure_elasticity set to true. The latter is because of duplicate objects. What's more, mac80211 walks the rhashtable chains by hand which is broken as rhashtable may contain multiple tables due to resizing or rehashing. This patch fixes it by converting it to the newly added rhltable interface which is designed for use with duplicate objects. With rhltable a lookup returns a list of objects instead of a single one. This is then fed into the existing for_each_sta_info macro. This patch also deletes the sta_addr_hash function since rhashtable defaults to jhash.

Non-bufferable MMPDUs are sent out to STAs even while in PS mode (for example probe responses). Applying filtered frame handling for these doesn't seem to make much sense and will only create more air utilization when the STA wakes up.

The mac80211/ath9k AP where the STA is associated would reply with a probe response but the phone sometimes moved to a new channel already and couldn't ack the probe response anymore.

This makes it easier to identify where the statistics are updated in the code, and thus easier to think about them. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-10-21mac80211: remove sta->last_ack_signalJohannes Berg1-3/+0
This file only feeds a debugfs file that isn't very useful, so remove it. If necessary, we can add other ways to get this information, for example in the NL80211_CMD_PROBE_CLIENT response. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2015-09-22mac80211: Split sending tx'ed frames to monitor interfaces into its own functionHelmut Schaa1-49/+59
This allows ieee80211_tx_monitor to be used directly for sending 802.11 frames to all monitor interfaces. Signed-off-by: Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-08-13mac80211: remove always true conditionDan Carpenter1-4/+1
The outside if statement checks that IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_MLME_CONN_TX is set so this condition is always true. Checking twice upsets the static checkers. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-06-10mac80211: convert HW flags to unsigned long bitmapJohannes Berg1-7/+6
As we're running out of hardware capability flags pretty quickly, convert them to use the regular test_bit() style unsigned long bitmaps. This introduces a number of helper functions/macros to set and to test the bits, along with new debugfs code. The occurrences of an explicit __clear_bit() are intentional, the drivers were never supposed to change their supported bits on the fly. We should investigate changing this to be a per-frame flag.

2015-06-02mac80211: stop using pointers as userspace cookiesJohannes Berg1-13/+14
Even if the pointers are really only accessible to root and used pretty much only by wpa_supplicant, this is still not great; even for debugging it'd be easier to have something that's easier to read and guaranteed to never get reused. With the recent change to make mac80211 create an ack_skb for the mgmt-tx path this becomes possible, only the client probe method needs to also allocate an ack_skb, and we can store the cookie in that skb.

2015-06-02mac80211: copy nl80211 mgmt TX SKB for statusJohannes Berg1-41/+68
When we return the TX status for an nl80211 mgmt TX SKB, we should also return the original frame with the status to allow userspace to match up the submission (it could also use the cookie but both ways are permissible.) As TX SKBs could be encrypted, at least in the case of ANQP while associated with the AP, copy the original SKB, store it with an ACK frame ID and restructure the status path to use that to return status with the original SKB. Otherwise, userspace (in particular wpa_supplicant) will get confused. Reported-by: Matti Gottlieb <matti.gottlieb@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-05-05mac80211: move dot11 counters under MAC80211_DEBUG_COUNTERSJohannes Berg1-14/+14
Since these counters can only be read through debugfs, there's very little point in maintaining them all the time. However, even just making them depend on debugfs is pointless - they're not normally used. Additionally a number of them aren't even concurrency safe. Move them under MAC80211_DEBUG_COUNTERS so they're normally not even compiled in. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-04-01mac80211: use rhashtable for station tableJohannes Berg1-2/+6
We currently have a hand-rolled table with 256 entries and are using the last byte of the MAC address as the hash. This hash is obviously very fast, but collisions are easily created and we waste a lot of space in the common case of just connecting as a client to an AP where we just have a single station. The other common case of an AP is also suboptimal due to the size of the hash table and the ease of causing collisions. Convert all of this to use rhashtable with jhash, which gives us the advantage of a far better hash function (with random perturbation to avoid hash collision attacks) and of course that the hash table grows and shrinks dynamically with chain length, improving both cases above. Use a specialised hash function (using jhash, but with fixed length) to achieve better compiler optimisation as suggested by Sergey Ryazanov. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-02-28mac80211: remove TX latency measurement codeJohannes Berg1-74/+0
Revert commit ad38bfc916da ("mac80211: Tx frame latency statistics") (along with some follow-up fixes). This code turned out not to be as useful in the current form as we thought, and we've internally hacked it up more, but that's not very suitable for upstream (for now), and we might just do that with tracing instead. Therefore, for now at least, remove this code. We might also need to use the skb->tstamp field for the TCP performance issue, which is more important than the debugging.
