      Revert "ath9k: Calculate sleep duration" · ae0fd635
      Sujith Manoharan 提交于
      This reverts commit 09ebb810.
      
      ath9k_hw_set_sta_beacon_timers() configures AR_TIM_PERIOD with
      the beacon interval. Before this commit, the sleepduration was
      never greater than the beacon interval. But now, the behavior
      has changed. For example, with an AP that uses a beacon interval of 100:
      
      ath: phy9: next beacon 61128704
      ath: phy9: beacon period 204800
      ath: phy9: DTIM period 204800
      
      If the sleepduration is calculated based on the listen time, then
      the bmiss threshold should also be changed since the HW would
      be in sleep state for a longer time, but that is not done currently.
      
      To avoid configuring a higher beacon interval based on the sleepduration,
      revert to the original behavior. Power consumption is not a
      problem since PS is disabled in ath9k anyway.

      mac80211: fix channel switch for chanctx-based drivers · 47e4df94
      Michal Kazior 提交于
      The new_ctx pointer is set only for non-chanctx drivers.  This yielded a
      crash for chanctx-based drivers during channel switch finalization:

      net: sctp: fix suboptimal edge-case on non-active active/retrans path selection · aa4a83ee
      Daniel Borkmann 提交于
      In SCTP, selection of active (T.ACT) and retransmission (T.RET)
      transports is being done whenever transport control operations
      (UP, DOWN, PF, ...) are engaged through sctp_assoc_control_transport().
      
      Commits 4c47af4d ("net: sctp: rework multihoming retransmission
      path selection to rfc4960") and a7288c4d ("net: sctp: improve
      sctp_select_active_and_retran_path selection") have both improved
      it towards a more fine-grained and optimal path selection.
      
      Currently, the selection algorithm for T.ACT and T.RET is as follows:
      
      1) Elect the two most recently used ACTIVE transports T1, T2 for
         T.ACT, T.RET, where T.ACT<-T1 and T1 is most recently used
      2) In case primary path T.PRI not in {T1, T2} but ACTIVE, set
         T.ACT<-T.PRI and T.RET<-T1
      3) If only T1 is ACTIVE from the set, set T.ACT<-T1 and T.RET<-T1
      4) If none is ACTIVE, set T.ACT<-best(T.PRI, T.RET, T3) where
         T3 is the most recently used (if avail) in PF, set T.RET<-T.PRI
      
      Prior to above commits, 4) was simply a camp on T.ACT<-T.PRI and
      T.RET<-T.PRI, ignoring possible paths in PF. Camping on T.PRI is
      still slightly suboptimal as it can lead to the following scenario:
      
      Setup:
              <A>                                <B>
          T1: p1p1 (10.0.10.10) <==>  .'`)  <==> p1p1 (10.0.10.12)  <= T.PRI
          T2: p1p2 (10.0.10.20) <==> (_ . ) <==> p1p2 (10.0.10.22)
      
          net.sctp.rto_min = 1000
          net.sctp.path_max_retrans = 2
          net.sctp.pf_retrans = 0
          net.sctp.hb_interval = 1000
      
      T.PRI is permanently down, T2 is put briefly into PF state (e.g. due to
      link flapping). Here, the first time transmission is sent over PF path
      T2 as it's the only non-INACTIVE path, but the retransmitted data-chunks
      are sent over the INACTIVE path T1 (T.PRI), which is not good.
      
      After the patch, it's choosing better transports in both cases by
      modifying step 4):
      
      4) If none is ACTIVE, set T.ACT_new<-best(T.ACT_old, T3) where T3 is
         the most recently used (if avail) in PF, set T.RET<-T.ACT_new
      
      This will still select a best possible path in PF if available (which
      can also include T.PRI/T.RET), and set both T.ACT/T.RET to it.
      
      In case sctp_assoc_control_transport() *just* put T.ACT_old into INACTIVE
      as it transitioned from ACTIVE->PF->INACTIVE and stays in INACTIVE just
      for a very short while before going back ACTIVE, it will guarantee that
      this path will be reselected for T.ACT/T.RET since T3 (PF) is not
      available.
      
      Previously, this was not possible, as we would only select between T.PRI
      and T.RET, and a possible T3 would be NULL due to the fact that we have
      just transitioned T3 in sctp_assoc_control_transport() from PF->INACTIVE
      and would select a suboptimal path when T.PRI/T.RET have worse properties.
      
      In the case that T.ACT_old permanently went to INACTIVE during this
      transition and there's no PF path available, plus T.PRI and T.RET are
      INACTIVE as well, we would now camp on T.ACT_old, but if everything is
      being INACTIVE there's really not much we can do except hoping for a
      successful HB to bring one of the transports back up again and, thus
      cause a new selection through sctp_assoc_control_transport().
      
      Now both tests work fine:
      
      Case 1:
      
       1. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT
          T2 S(ACTIVE) T.RET
      
       2. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET
          T2 S(PF)
      
       3. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET
          T2 S(INACTIVE)
      
       5. T1 S(PF) T.ACT, T.RET
          T2 S(INACTIVE)
      
      [ 5.1 T1 S(INACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET
            T2 S(INACTIVE) ]
      
       6. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET
          T2 S(INACTIVE)
      
       7. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT
          T2 S(ACTIVE) T.RET
      
      Case 2:
      
       1. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT
          T2 S(ACTIVE) T.RET
      
       2. T1 S(PF)
          T2 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET
      
       3. T1 S(INACTIVE)
          T2 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET
      
       5. T1 S(INACTIVE)
          T2 S(PF) T.ACT, T.RET
      
      [ 5.1 T1 S(INACTIVE)
            T2 S(INACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET ]
      
       6. T1 S(INACTIVE)
          T2 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET
      
       7. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT
          T2 S(ACTIVE) T.RET
