      mac80211: track receiver's aggregation reorder buffer size · 0b01f030
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      The aggregation code currently doesn't implement the
      buffer size negotiation. It will always request a max
      buffer size (which is fine, if a little pointless, as
      the mac80211 code doesn't know and might just use 0
      instead), but if the peer requests a smaller size it
      isn't possible to honour this request.
      
      In order to fix this, look at the buffer size in the
      addBA response frame, keep track of it and pass it to
      the driver in the ampdu_action callback when called
      with the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL action. That
      way the driver can limit the number of subframes in
      aggregates appropriately.
      
      Note that this doesn't fix any drivers apart from the
      addition of the new argument -- they all need to be
      updated separately to use this variable!

      mac80211: improve HT channel handling · 0aaffa9b
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Currently, when one interface switches HT mode,
      all others will follow along. This is clearly
      undesirable, since the new one might switch to
      no-HT while another one is operating in HT.
      
      Address this issue by keeping track of the HT
      mode per interface, and allowing only changes
      that are compatible, i.e. switching into HT40+
      is not possible when another interface is in
      HT40-, in that case the second one needs to
      fall back to HT20.
      
      Also, to allow drivers to know what's going on,
      store the per-interface HT mode (channel type)
      in the virtual interface's bss_conf.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      cfg80211: export multiple MAC addresses in sysfs · ef15aac6
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      If a device has multiple MAC addresses, userspace will
      need to know about that. Similarly, if it allows the
      MAC addresses to vary by a bitmask.
      
      If a driver exports multiple addresses, it is assumed
      that it will be able to deal with that many different
      addresses, which need not necessarily match the ones
      programmed into the device; if a mask is set then the
      device should deal addresses within that mask based
      on an arbitrary "base address".
      
      To test it all and show how it is used, add support
      to hwsim even though it can't actually deal with
      addresses different from the default.

      mac80211: allow configure_filter callback to sleep · 3ac64bee
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Over time, a whole bunch of drivers have come up
      with their own scheme to delay the configure_filter
      operation to a workqueue. To be able to simplify
      things, allow configure_filter to sleep, and add
      a new prepare_multicast callback that drivers that
      need the multicast address list implement. This new
      callback must be atomic, but most drivers either
      don't care or just calculate a hash which can be
      done atomically and then uploaded to the hardware
      non-atomically.
      
      A cursory look suggests that at76c50x-usb, ar9170,
      mwl8k (which is actually very broken now), rt2x00,
      wl1251, wl1271 and zd1211 should make use of this
      new capability.
