Currently, mac80211 allows drivers to keep RCU-protected station references that are cleared when the station is removed from the driver and consequently needs to synchronize twice, once before removing the station from the driver (so it can guarantee that the station is no longer used in TX towards the driver) and once after the station is removed from the driver. Add a new pre-RCU-synchronisation station removal operation to the API to allow drivers to clear/invalidate their RCU-protected station pointers before the RCU synchronisation. This will allow removing the second synchronisation by changing the driver API so that the driver may no longer assume a valid RCU-protected pointer after sta_remove/sta_state returns. The alternative to this would be to synchronize_rcu() in all the drivers that currently rely on this behaviour (only iwlmvm) but that would defeat the purpose.

Add a new field to ieee80211_chanctx_conf to indicate the min required channel configuration. Tuning to a narrower channel might help reducing the noise level and saving some power. The min required channel definition is the max of all min required channel definitions of the interfaces bound to this channel context. In AP mode, use 20MHz when there are no connected station. When a new station is added/removed, calculate the new max bandwidth supported by any of the stations (e.g. 80MHz when 80MHz and 40MHz stations are connected). In other cases, simply use bss_conf.chandef as the min required chandef. Notify drivers about changes to this field by calling drv_change_chanctx with a new CHANGE_MIN_WIDTH notification.

802.11-2012 13.3.1 implicitly limits the mesh local link ID range to that of AID, since for mesh PS the local link ID must be indicated in the TIM IE, which only holds IEEE80211_MAX_AID bits. Also the code was allowing a local link ID of 0, but this is not correct since that TIM bit is used for indicating buffered mcast frames. Generate a random, unique, link ID from 1 - 2007, and drop a modulo conversion for the local link ID, but keep it for the peer link ID in case he chose something > MAX_AID.

When the driver requests to move to STATIC or DYNAMIC SMPS, we send an action frame to each associated station and reconfigure the channel context / driver. Of course, non-MIMO stations are ignored. The beacon isn't updated. The association response will include the original capabilities. Stations that associate while in non-OFF SMPS mode will get an action frame right after association to inform them about our current state. Note that we wait until the end of the EAPOL. Sending an action frame before the EAPOL is finished can be an issue for a few clients. Clients aren't likely to send EAPOL frames in MIMO anyway. When the SMPS configuration gets more permissive (e.g. STATIC -> OFF), we don't wake up stations that are asleep We remember that they don't know about the change and send the action frame when they wake up. When the SMPS configuration gets more restrictive (e.g. OFF -> STATIC), we set the TIM bit for every sleeping STA. uAPSD stations might send MIMO until they poll the action frame, but this is for a short period of time.

Instead of calling synchronize_net() for every key on an interface or when a station is removed, do it only once for all keys in both of these cases.

If there are keys left during station removal, then a synchronize_net() will be done (for each key, I have a patch to address this for 3.10), otherwise it won't be done at all which causes issues because the station could be used for TX while it's being removed from the driver -- that might confuse the driver.

During roaming, the crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt counter will often take values 2,1,0,1,2 because first keys are removed and then new keys are added. This is inefficient because during the 0->1 transition, synchronize_net must be called to avoid packet races, although typically no packets would be flowing during that time. To avoid that, defer the decrement (2->1, 1->0) when keys are removed (by half a second). This means the counter will really have the values 2,2,2,3,4 ... 2, thus never reaching 0 and having to do the 0->1 transition. Note that this patch entirely disregards the drivers for which this optimisation was done to start with, for them the key removal itself will be expensive because it has to synchronize_net() after the counter is incremented to remove the key from HW crypto. For them the sequence will look like this: 0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0 (*) which is clearly a lot more inefficient. This could be addressed separately, during key removal the 0->1->0 sequence isn't necessary. (*) it starts at 0 because HW crypto is on, then goes to 1 when HW crypto is disabled for a key, then back to 0 because the key is deleted; this happens for both keys in the example. When new keys are added, it goes to 1 first because they're added in software; when a key is moved to hardware it goes back to 0 Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

In my commit 1672c0e3 ("mac80211: start auth/assoc timeout on frame status") I broke auth/assoc timeout handling: in case we wait for the TX status, it now leaves the timeout field set to 0, which is a valid time and can compare as being before now ("jiffies"). Thus, if the work struct runs for some other reason, the auth/assoc is treated as having timed out. Fix this by introducing a separate "timeout_started" variable that tracks whether the timeout has started and is checked before timing out. Additionally, for proper TX status handling the change requires that the skb->dev pointer is set up for all the frames, so set it up for all frames in mac80211.

The patch "mac80211: clean up mesh sta allocation warning" moved some mesh initialization into a path which is only called when the kernel handles peering. This causes a hang when mac80211 tries to clean up a userspace-allocated station entry and delete a timer which has never been initialized. To avoid this, only do any mesh sta peering teardown if the kernel is actually handling it. The same is true when quiescing before suspend.

Add routines to - maintain a PS mode for each peer and a non-peer PS mode - indicate own PS mode in transmitted frames - track neighbor STAs power modes - buffer frames when neighbors are in PS mode - add TIM and Awake Window IE to beacons - release frames in Mesh Peer Service Periods Add local_pm to sta_info to represent the link-specific power mode at this station towards the remote station. When a peer link is established, use the default power mode stored in mesh config. Update the PS status if the peering status of a neighbor changes. Maintain a mesh power mode for non-peer mesh STAs. Set the non-peer power mode to active mode during peering. Authenticated mesh peering is currently not working when either node is configured to be in power save mode. Indicate the current power mode in transmitted frames. Use QoS Nulls to indicate mesh power mode transitions. For performance reasons, calls to the function setting the frame flags are placed in HWMP routing routines, as there the STA pointer is already available. Add peer_pm to sta_info to represent the peer's link-specific power mode towards the local station. Add nonpeer_pm to represent the peer's power mode towards all non-peer stations. Track power modes based on received frames. Add the ps_data structure to ieee80211_if_mesh (for TIM map, PS neighbor counter and group-addressed frame buffer). Set WLAN_STA_PS flag for STA in PS mode to use the unicast frame buffering routines in the tx path. Update num_sta_ps to buffer and release group-addressed frames after DTIM beacons. Announce the awake window duration in beacons if in light or deep sleep mode towards any peer or non-peer. Create a TIM IE similarly to AP mode and add it to mesh beacons. Parse received Awake Window IEs and check TIM IEs for buffered frames. Release frames towards peers in mesh Peer Service Periods. Use the corresponding trigger frames and monitor the MPSP status. Append a QoS Null as trigger frame if neccessary to properly end the MPSP. Currently, in HT channels MPSPs behave imperfectly and show large delay spikes and frame losses.

Unfortunately, commit b22cfcfc, intended to speed up roaming by avoiding the synchronize_rcu() broke AP/mesh modes as it moved some code into that work item that will still call into the driver at a time where it's no longer expected to handle this: after the AP or mesh has been stopped. To fix this problem remove the per-station work struct, maintain a station cleanup list instead and flush this list when stations are flushed. To keep this patch smaller for stable, do this when the stations are flushed (sta_info_flush()). This unfortunately brings back the original roaming delay; I'll fix that again in a separate patch. Also, Ben reported that the original commit could sometimes (with many interfaces) cause long delays when an interface is set down, due to blocking on flush_workqueue(). Since we now maintain the cleanup list, this particular change of the original patch can be reverted.

This patch prepares mac80211 for a later implementation of mesh or ad-hoc powersave clients. The structures related to powersave (buffer, TIM map, counters) are moved from the AP-specific interface structure to a generic structure that can be embedded into any interface type. The functions related to powersave are prepared to allow easy extension with different interface types. For example with: + } else if (sta->sdata->vif.type == NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT) { + ps = &sdata->u.mesh.ps; Some references to the AP's beacon structure are removed where they were obviously not used.

Instead of operating on a single channel only, use the new channel context infrastructure in all mac80211 code. This enables drivers that want to use the new channel context infrastructure to use multiple channels, while nothing should change for all the other drivers that don't support it. Right now this disables both TX power settings and spatial multiplexing powersave. Both need to be re-enabled on a channel context basis. Additionally, when channel contexts are used drop the connection when channel switch is received rather than trying to handle it. This will have to be improved later.
