2019-11-27Merge tag 'driver-core-5.5-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-coreLinus Torvalds1-14/+3
Pull driver core updates from Greg KH: "Here is the "big" set of driver core patches for 5.5-rc1 There's a few minor cleanups and fixes in here, but the majority of the patches in here fall into two buckets: - debugfs api cleanups and fixes - driver core device link support for boot dependancy issues The debugfs api cleanups are working to slowly refactor the debugfs apis so that it is even harder to use incorrectly. That work has been happening for the past few kernel releases and will continue over time, it's a long-term project/goal The driver core device link support missed 5.4 by just a bit, so it's been sitting and baking for many months now. It's from Saravana Kannan to help resolve the problems that DT-based systems have at boot time with dependancy graphs and kernel modules. Turns out that no one has actually tried to build a generic arm64 kernel with loads of modules and have it "just work" for a variety of platforms (like a distro kernel). The big problem turned out to be a lack of dependency information between different areas of DT entries, and the work here resolves that problem and now allows devices to boot properly, and quicker than a monolith kernel. All of these patches have been in linux-next for a long time with no reported issues" * tag 'driver-core-5.5-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (68 commits) tracing: Remove unnecessary DEBUG_FS dependency of: property: Add device link support for interrupt-parent, dmas and -gpio(s) debugfs: Fix !DEBUG_FS debugfs_create_automount of: property: Add device link support for "iommu-map" of: property: Fix the semantics of of_is_ancestor_of() i2c: of: Populate fwnode in of_i2c_get_board_info() drivers: base: Fix Kconfig indentation firmware_loader: Fix labels with comma for builtin firmware driver core: Allow device link operations inside sync_state() driver core: platform: Declare ret variable only once cpu-topology: declare parse_acpi_topology in <linux/arch_topology.h> crypto: hisilicon: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions driver core: platform: use the correct callback type for bus_find_device firmware_class: make firmware caching configurable driver core: Clarify documentation for fwnode_operations.add_links() mailbox: tegra: Fix superfluous IRQ error message net: caif: Fix debugfs on 64-bit platforms mac80211: Use debugfs_create_xul() helper media: c8sectpfe: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions of: property: Add device link support for iommus, mboxes and io-channels ...
2019-11-22mac80211: Use Airtime-based Queue Limits (AQL) on packet dequeueToke Høiland-Jørgensen2-0/+44
The previous commit added the ability to throttle stations when they queue too much airtime in the hardware. This commit enables the functionality by calculating the expected airtime usage of each packet that is dequeued from the TXQs in mac80211, and accounting that as pending airtime. The estimated airtime for each skb is stored in the tx_info, so we can subtract the same amount from the running total when the skb is freed or recycled. The throttling mechanism relies on this accounting to be accurate (i.e., that we are not freeing skbs without subtracting any airtime they were accounted for), so we put the subtraction into ieee80211_report_used_skb(). As an optimisation, we also subtract the airtime on regular TX completion, zeroing out the value stored in the packet afterwards, to avoid having to do an expensive lookup of the station from the packet data on every packet. This patch does *not* include any mechanism to wake a throttled TXQ again, on the assumption that this will happen anyway as a side effect of whatever freed the skb (most commonly a TX completion).

2019-11-22mac80211: Implement Airtime-based Queue Limit (AQL)Kan Yan7-14/+225
In order for the Fq_CoDel algorithm integrated in mac80211 layer to operate effectively to control excessive queueing latency, the CoDel algorithm requires an accurate measure of how long packets stays in the queue, AKA sojourn time. The sojourn time measured at the mac80211 layer doesn't include queueing latency in the lower layer (firmware/hardware) and CoDel expects lower layer to have a short queue. However, most 802.11ac chipsets offload tasks such TX aggregation to firmware or hardware, thus have a deep lower layer queue. Without a mechanism to control the lower layer queue size, packets only stay in mac80211 layer transiently before being sent to firmware queue. As a result, the sojourn time measured by CoDel in the mac80211 layer is almost always lower than the CoDel latency target, hence CoDel does little to control the latency, even when the lower layer queue causes excessive latency. The Byte Queue Limits (BQL) mechanism is commonly used to address the similar issue with wired network interface. However, this method cannot be applied directly to the wireless network interface. "Bytes" is not a suitable measure of queue depth in the wireless network, as the data rate can vary dramatically from station to station in the same network, from a few Mbps to over Gbps. This patch implements an Airtime-based Queue Limit (AQL) to make CoDel work effectively with wireless drivers that utilized firmware/hardware offloading. AQL allows each txq to release just enough packets to the lower layer to form 1-2 large aggregations to keep hardware fully utilized and retains the rest of the frames in mac80211 layer to be controlled by the CoDel algorithm.

2019-11-22mac80211: Import airtime calculation code from mt76Toke Høiland-Jørgensen3-1/+603
Felix recently added code to calculate airtime of packets to the mt76 driver. Import this into mac80211 so we can use it for airtime queue limit calculations. The airtime.c file is copied verbatim from the mt76 driver, and adjusted to be usable in mac80211. This involves: - Switching to mac80211 data structures. - Adding support for 160 MHz channels and HE mode. - Moving the symbol and duration calculations around a bit to avoid rounding with the higher rates and longer symbol times used for HE rates. The per-rate TX rate calculation is also split out to its own function so it can be used directly for the AQL calculations later.

2019-11-22mac80211: consider QoS Null frames for STA_NULLFUNC_ACKEDThomas Pedersen1-1/+2
Commit 7b6ddeaf27ec ("mac80211: use QoS NDP for AP probing") let STAs send QoS Null frames as PS triggers if the AP was a QoS STA. However, the mac80211 PS stack relies on an interface flag IEEE80211_STA_NULLFUNC_ACKED for determining trigger frame ACK, which was not being set for acked non-QoS Null frames. The effect is an inability to trigger hardware sleep via IEEE80211_CONF_PS since the QoS Null frame was seemingly never acked. This bug only applies to drivers which set both IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS and IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK. Detect the acked QoS Null frame to restore STA power save.

2019-11-08mac80211: Shrink the size of ack_frame_id to make room for tx_time_estToke Høiland-Jørgensen2-2/+2
To implement airtime queue limiting, we need to keep a running account of the estimated airtime of all skbs queued into the device. Do to this correctly, we need to store the airtime estimate into the skb so we can decrease the outstanding balance when the skb is freed. This means that the time estimate must be stored somewhere that will survive for the lifetime of the skb. To get this, decrease the size of the ack_frame_id field to 6 bits, and lower the size of the ID space accordingly. This leaves 10 bits for use for tx_time_est, which is enough to store a maximum of 4096 us, if we shift the values so they become units of 4us.

2019-10-11mac80211: minstrel_ht: replace rate stats ewma with a better moving averageFelix Fietkau3-8/+76
Rate success probability usually fluctuates a lot under normal conditions. With a simple EWMA, noise and fluctuation can be reduced by increasing the window length, but that comes at the cost of introducing lag on sudden changes. This change replaces the EWMA implementation with a moving average that's designed to significantly reduce lag while keeping a bigger window size by being better at filtering out noise. It is only slightly more expensive than the simple EWMA and still avoids divisions in its calculation. The algorithm is adapted from an implementation intended for a completely different field (stock market trading), where the tradeoff of lag vs noise filtering is equally important. It is based on the "smoothing filter" from http://www.stockspotter.com/files/PredictiveIndicators.pdf. I have adapted it to fixed-point math with some constants so that it uses only addition, bit shifts and multiplication To better make use of the filtering and bigger window size, the update interval time is cut in half. For testing, the algorithm can be reverted to the older one via debugfs Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20191008171139.96476-2-nbd@nbd.name Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2019-09-11mac80211: Do not send Layer 2 Update frame before authorizationJouni Malinen2-10/+8
The Layer 2 Update frame is used to update bridges when a station roams to another AP even if that STA does not transmit any frames after the reassociation. This behavior was described in IEEE Std 802.11F-2003 as something that would happen based on MLME-ASSOCIATE.indication, i.e., before completing 4-way handshake. However, this IEEE trial-use recommended practice document was published before RSN (IEEE Std 802.11i-2004) and as such, did not consider RSN use cases. Furthermore, IEEE Std 802.11F-2003 was withdrawn in 2006 and as such, has not been maintained amd should not be used anymore. Sending out the Layer 2 Update frame immediately after association is fine for open networks (and also when using SAE, FT protocol, or FILS authentication when the station is actually authenticated by the time association completes). However, it is not appropriate for cases where RSN is used with PSK or EAP authentication since the station is actually fully authenticated only once the 4-way handshake completes after authentication and attackers might be able to use the unauthenticated triggering of Layer 2 Update frame transmission to disrupt bridge behavior. Fix this by postponing transmission of the Layer 2 Update frame from station entry addition to the point when the station entry is marked authorized. Similarly, send out the VLAN binding update only if the STA entry has already been authorized.

2019-09-11mac80211: IBSS: send deauth when expiring inactive STAsJohannes Berg4-8/+19
When we expire an inactive station, try to send it a deauth. This helps if it's actually still around, and just has issues with beacon distribution (or we do), and it will not also remove us. Then, if we have shared state, this may not be reset properly, causing problems; for example, we saw a case where aggregation sessions weren't removed properly (due to the TX start being offloaded to firmware and it relying on deauth for stop), causing a lot of traffic to get lost due to the SN reset after remove/add of the peer.

2019-09-11mac80211: clear crypto tx tailroom counter upon keys enableLior Cohen3-35/+15
In case we got a fw restart while roaming from encrypted AP to non-encrypted one, we might end up with hitting a warning on the pending counter crypto_tx_tailroom_pending_dec having a non-zero value. The following comment taken from net/mac80211/key.c explains the rational for the delayed tailroom needed: /* * The reason for the delayed tailroom needed decrementing is to * make roaming faster: during roaming, all keys are first deleted * and then new keys are installed. The first new key causes the * crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt to go from 0 to 1, which invokes * the cost of synchronize_net() (which can be slow). Avoid this * by deferring the crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt decrementing on * key removal for a while, so if we roam the value is larger than * zero and no 0->1 transition happens. * * The cost is that if the AP switching was from an AP with keys * to one without, we still allocate tailroom while it would no * longer be needed. However, in the typical (fast) roaming case * within an ESS this usually won't happen. */ The next flow lead to the warning eventually reported as a bug: 1. Disconnect from encrypted AP 2. Set crypto_tx_tailroom_pending_dec = 1 for the key 3. Schedule work 4. Reconnect to non-encrypted AP 5. Add a new key, setting the tailroom counter = 1 6. Got FW restart while pending counter is set ---> hit the warning While on it, the ieee80211_reset_crypto_tx_tailroom() func was merged into its single caller ieee80211_reenable_keys (previously called ieee80211_enable_keys). Also, we reset the crypto_tx_tailroom_pending_dec and remove the counters warning as we just reset both.

2019-08-21mac80211: minstrel_ht: improve rate probing for devices with static fallbackFelix Fietkau3-28/+225
On some devices that only support static rate fallback tables sending rate control probing packets can be really expensive. Probing lower rates can already hurt throughput quite a bit. What hurts even more is the fact that on mt76x0/mt76x2, single probing packets can only be forced by directing packets at a different internal hardware queue, which causes some heavy reordering and extra latency. The reordering issue is mainly problematic while pushing lots of packets to a particular station. If there is little activity, the overhead of probing is neglegible. The static fallback behavior is designed to pretty much only handle rate control algorithms that use only a very limited set of rates on which the algorithm switches up/down based on packet error rate. In order to better support that kind of hardware, this patch implements a different approach to rate probing where it switches to a slightly higher rate, waits for tx status feedback, then updates the stats and switches back to the new max throughput rate. This only triggers above a packet rate of 100 per stats interval (~50ms). For that kind of probing, the code has to reduce the set of probing rates a lot more compared to single packet probing, so it uses only one packet per MCS group which is either slightly faster, or as close as possible to the max throughput rate. This allows switching between similar rates with different numbers of streams. The algorithm assumes that the hardware will work its way lower within an MCS group in case of retransmissions, so that lower rates don't have to be probed by the high packets per second rate probing code. To further reduce the search space, it also does not probe rates with lower channel bandwidth than the max throughput rate. At the moment, these changes will only affect mt76x0/mt76x2.

On hardware with static fallback tables (e.g. mt76x2), rate probing attempts can be very expensive. On such devices, avoid sampling rates slower than the per-group max throughput rate, based on the assumption that the fallback table will take care of probing lower rates within that group if the higher rates fail. To further reduce unnecessary probing attempts, skip duplicate attempts on rates slower than the max throughput rate.

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.
