The ieee80211_scan_completed() function was a frequent source of potential deadlocks, since it is called by drivers but may call back into drivers, so drivers had to make sure to call it without any locks held, which frequently lead to more complex code in drivers. Avoid that problem by allowing the function to be called in any context, and queueing the actual work it does. Also update the documentation for it to indicate this.

When a mac80211-based driver advertises mesh mode support, this will be advertised to userspace. However, if mac80211 was compiled without mesh support, then that won't actually be true. Fix this by removing the bit for mesh if mesh isn't compiled in. Since this synchronizes what we advertise to cfg80211 and actually support, it means we can now rely on cfg80211's interface type checks and need not check again in mac80211.

This patch fixes a potential crash (null-pointer de- reference) which was introduced in my previous patch: "mac80211: AMPDU rx reorder timeout timer" During a BA teardown, the pointer to the soon-to-be-gone tid_ampdu_rx element will be nullified. Therefore the release timer mechanism has to be careful not to accidentally access the item without any RCU protection.

Unlike most other workqueue-tasks, the restart_work is not scheduled onto mac80211's private per-interface workqueue, but onto one of the system-wide workqueues. Therefore the mac80211-stack has to cancel any pending restarts, before destroying the shared device context and handing back the memory. Otherwise - under very unlucky circumstances - there could be a stale work- item left, because some other kernel component might have delayed the execution of ieee80211_restart_work for too long.

This function analyses only its single, value-passed argument, and has no side effects. Thus it can be const, which makes mac80211 smaller, for example: text data bss dec hex filename 362518 16720 884 380122 5ccda mac80211.ko (before) 362358 16720 884 379962 5cc3a mac80211.ko (after) a 160 byte saving in text size, and an optimisation because the function won't be called as often.

This patch introduces a new timer, which will release queued-up MPDUs from the reorder buffer, whenever they've waited for more than HT_RX_REORDER_BUF_TIMEOUT (which is at around 100 ms). The advantage of having a dedicated timer, instead of relying on a constant stream of freshly arriving aMPDUs to release the old ones, is particularly observable when even a small fraction of MPDUs are forever lost at low network speeds. Previously under these circumstances frames would become stuck in the reorder buffer and the network stack of both HT peers throttled back, instead of revving up and gunning the pipes.

This patch implement basic infrastructure to support use of NAPI by mac80211-based hardware drivers. Because mac80211 devices can support multiple netdevs, a dummy netdev is used for interfacing with the NAPI code in the core of the network stack. That structure is hidden from the hardware drivers, but the actual napi_struct is exposed in the ieee80211_hw structure so that the poll routines in drivers can retrieve that structure. Hardware drivers can also specify their own weight value for NAPI polling. Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

remote_tx_win is intended to be set on receipt of an L2CAP configuration request. The value is used to determine the size of the transmit window on the remote side of an ERTM connection, so L2CAP can stop sending frames when that remote window is full. An incorrect remote_tx_win value will cause the stack to not fully utilize the tx window (performance impact), or to overfill the remote tx window (causing dropped frames or a disconnect). This patch removes an extra setting of remote_tx_win when a configuration response is received. The transmit window has a different meaning in a response - it is an informational value less than or equal to the local tx_win.

Incoming configuration values must be converted to native CPU order before use. This fixes a bug where a little-endian MPS value is compared to a native CPU value. On big-endian processors, this can cause ERTM and streaming mode segmentation to produce PDUs that are larger than the remote stack is expecting, or that would produce fragmented skbs that the current FCS code cannot handle.

RxRPC can potentially deadlock as rxrpc_resend_time_expired() wants to get call->state_lock so that it can alter the state of an RxRPC call. However, its caller (call_timer_fn()) has an apparent lock on the timer struct. The problem is that rxrpc_resend_time_expired() isn't permitted to lock call->state_lock as this could cause a deadlock against rxrpc_send_abort() as that takes state_lock and then attempts to delete the resend timer by calling del_timer_sync(). The deadlock can occur because del_timer_sync() will sit there forever waiting for rxrpc_resend_time_expired() to return, but the latter may then wait for call->state_lock, which rxrpc_send_abort() holds around del_timer_sync()... This leads to a warning appearing in the kernel log that looks something like the attached. It should be sufficient to simply dispense with the locks. It doesn't matter if we set the resend timer expired event bit and queue the event processor whilst we're changing state to one where the resend timer is irrelevant as the event can just be ignored by the processor thereafter. ======================================================= [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 2.6.35-rc3-cachefs+ #115 ------------------------------------------------------- swapper/0 is trying to acquire lock: (&call->state_lock){++--..}, at: [<ffffffffa00200d4>] rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] but task is already holding lock: (&call->resend_timer){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffff8103b675>] run_timer_softirq+0x182/0x2a5 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&call->resend_timer){+.-...}: [<ffffffff810560bc>] __lock_acquire+0x889/0x8fa [<ffffffff81056184>] lock_acquire+0x57/0x6d [<ffffffff8103bb9c>] del_timer_sync+0x3c/0x86 [<ffffffffa002bb7a>] rxrpc_send_abort+0x50/0x97 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffffa002bdd9>] rxrpc_kernel_abort_call+0xa1/0xdd [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffffa0061588>] afs_deliver_to_call+0x129/0x368 [kafs] [<ffffffffa006181b>] afs_process_async_call+0x54/0xff [kafs] [<ffffffff8104261d>] worker_thread+0x1ef/0x2e2 [<ffffffff81045f47>] kthread+0x7a/0x82 [<ffffffff81002cd4>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 -> #0 (&call->state_lock){++--..}: [<ffffffff81055237>] validate_chain+0x727/0xd23 [<ffffffff810560bc>] __lock_acquire+0x889/0x8fa [<ffffffff81056184>] lock_acquire+0x57/0x6d [<ffffffff813e6b69>] _raw_read_lock_bh+0x34/0x43 [<ffffffffa00200d4>] rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffff8103b6e6>] run_timer_softirq+0x1f3/0x2a5 [<ffffffff81036828>] __do_softirq+0xa2/0x13e [<ffffffff81002dcc>] call_softirq+0x1c/0x28 [<ffffffff810049f0>] do_softirq+0x38/0x80 [<ffffffff810361a2>] irq_exit+0x45/0x47 [<ffffffff81018fb3>] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x88/0x96 [<ffffffff81002893>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x13/0x20 [<ffffffff810011ac>] cpu_idle+0x4d/0x83 [<ffffffff813e06f3>] start_secondary+0x1bd/0x1c1 other info that might help us debug this: 1 lock held by swapper/0: #0: (&call->resend_timer){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffff8103b675>] run_timer_softirq+0x182/0x2a5 stack backtrace: Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.35-rc3-cachefs+ #115 Call Trace: <IRQ> [<ffffffff81054414>] print_circular_bug+0xae/0xbd [<ffffffff81055237>] validate_chain+0x727/0xd23 [<ffffffff810560bc>] __lock_acquire+0x889/0x8fa [<ffffffff810539a7>] ? mark_lock+0x42f/0x51f [<ffffffff81056184>] lock_acquire+0x57/0x6d [<ffffffffa00200d4>] ? rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffff813e6b69>] _raw_read_lock_bh+0x34/0x43 [<ffffffffa00200d4>] ? rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffffa00200d4>] rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffff8103b6e6>] run_timer_softirq+0x1f3/0x2a5 [<ffffffff8103b675>] ? run_timer_softirq+0x182/0x2a5 [<ffffffffa002007e>] ? rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x0/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffff810367ef>] ? __do_softirq+0x69/0x13e [<ffffffff81036828>] __do_softirq+0xa2/0x13e [<ffffffff81002dcc>] call_softirq+0x1c/0x28 [<ffffffff810049f0>] do_softirq+0x38/0x80 [<ffffffff810361a2>] irq_exit+0x45/0x47 [<ffffffff81018fb3>] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x88/0x96 [<ffffffff81002893>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x13/0x20 <EOI> [<ffffffff81049de1>] ? __atomic_notifier_call_chain+0x0/0x86 [<ffffffff8100955b>] ? mwait_idle+0x6e/0x78 [<ffffffff81009552>] ? mwait_idle+0x65/0x78 [<ffffffff810011ac>] cpu_idle+0x4d/0x83 [<ffffffff813e06f3>] start_secondary+0x1bd/0x1c1 Signed-off-by: NDavid Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.
