This reverts commit 5c48f120. Some device drivers (ath10k) offload part of aggregation including AddBA/DelBA negotiations to firmware. In such scenario, the PMF configuration of the station needs to be provided to driver to enable encryption of AddBA/DelBA action frames.

When debugging wireless powersave issues on the AP side it's quite helpful to see our own beacons that are transmitted by the hardware/driver. However, this is not that easy since beacons don't pass through the regular TX queues. Preferably drivers would call ieee80211_tx_status also for tx'ed beacons but that's not always possible. Hence, just send a copy of each beacon generated by ieee80211_beacon_get_tim to monitor devices when they are getting fetched by the driver. Also add a HW flag IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_TX_STATUS that can be used by drivers to indicate that they report TX status for beacons.

Currently the cfg80211's frame registration api receives wdev, however mac80211 assumes per device filter configuration and ignores wdev. Per device filtering is too wasteful, especially for multi-channel devices. Introduce new per vif frame registration API and use it for probe request registrations in ieee80211_mgmt_frame_register() Also call directly to ieee80211_configure_filter instead of using a work since it is now allowed to sleep in ieee80211_mgmt_frame_register.

HT TDLS traffic should be protected in a non-HT BSS to avoid collisions. Therefore, when TDLS peers join/leave, check if protection is (now) needed and set the ht_operation_mode of the virtual interface according to the HT capabilities of the TDLS peer(s). This works because a non-HT BSS connection never sets (or otherwise uses) the ht_operation_mode; it just means that drivers must be aware that this field applies to all HT traffic for this virtual interface, not just the traffic within the BSS. Document that. Signed-off-by: NAvri Altman <avri.altman@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Allow a device to specify support for the TDLS wider-bandwidth feature. Indicate this support during TDLS setup in the ext-capab IE and set an appropriate station flag when our TDLS peer supports it. This feature gives TDLS peers the ability to use a wider channel than the base width of the BSS. For instance VHT capable TDLS peers connected on a 20MHz channel can extend the channel to 80MHz, if regulatory considerations allow it. Do not cap the bandwidth of such stations by the current BSS channel width in mac80211.

When there are multiple RX queues, the PN checks in mac80211 cannot be used since packets might be processed out of order on different CPUs. Allow the driver to report that the PN has been checked, drivers that will use multi-queue RX will have to set this flag. For now, the flag is only valid when the frame has been decrypted, in theory that restriction doesn't have to be there, but in practice the hardware will have decrypted the frame already.

由 Johannes Berg 提交于
When introducing multiple RX queues, a single NAPI struct will not be sufficient. Instead of trying to store multiple, simply change the API to have the NAPI struct passed to the RX function. This of course means that drivers using rx_irqsafe() cannot use NAPI, but that seems a reasonable trade-off, particularly since only two of all drivers are currently using it at all. While at it, we can now remove the IEEE80211_RX_REORDER_TIMER flag again since this code path cannot have a napi struct anyway. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

As we're running out of hardware capability flags pretty quickly, convert them to use the regular test_bit() style unsigned long bitmaps. This introduces a number of helper functions/macros to set and to test the bits, along with new debugfs code. The occurrences of an explicit __clear_bit() are intentional, the drivers were never supposed to change their supported bits on the fly. We should investigate changing this to be a per-frame flag.

There are no drivers setting IEEE80211_HW_2GHZ_SHORT_SLOT_INCAPABLE or IEEE80211_HW_2GHZ_SHORT_PREAMBLE_INCAPABLE, so any code using the two flags is dead; it's also exceedingly unlikely that any new driver could ever need to set these flags.

Even if the pointers are really only accessible to root and used pretty much only by wpa_supplicant, this is still not great; even for debugging it'd be easier to have something that's easier to read and guaranteed to never get reused. With the recent change to make mac80211 create an ack_skb for the mgmt-tx path this becomes possible, only the client probe method needs to also allocate an ack_skb, and we can store the cookie in that skb.

For drivers supporting TSO or similar features, but that still have PN assignment in software, there's a need to have some memory to store the current PN value. As mac80211 already stores this and it's somewhat complicated to add a per-driver area to the key struct (due to the dynamic sizing thereof) it makes sense to just move the TX PN to the keyconf, i.e. the public part of the key struct. As TKIP is more complicated and we won't able to offload it in this way right now (fast-xmit is skipped for TKIP unless the HW does it all, and our hardware needs MMIC calculation in software) I've not moved that for now - it's possible but requires exposing a lot of the internal TKIP state. As an bonus side effect, we can remove a lot of code by assuming the keyseq struct has a certain layout - with BUILD_BUG_ON to verify it. This might also improve performance, since now TX and RX no longer share a cacheline.

When we receive a BAR, this typically means that our peer doesn't hear our Block-Acks or that we can't hear its frames. Either way, it is a good indication that the link is in a bad condition. This is why it can serve as a probe to the driver. Use the event_callback callback for this. Since more events with the same data will be added in the feature, the structure that describes the data attached to the event is called in a generic name: ieee80211_ba_event. This also means that from now on, the event_callback can't sleep. Signed-off-by: NEmmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

If drivers want to support S/G (really just gather DMA on TX) then we can now easily support this on the fast-xmit path since it just needs to write to the ethernet header (and already has a check for that being possible.) However, disallow this on the regular TX path (which has to handle fragmentation, software crypto, etc.) by calling skb_linearize(). Also allow the related HIGHDMA since that's not interesting to the code in mac80211 at all anyway. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

This allows drivers to request per-vif and per-sta-tid queues from which they can pull frames. This makes it easier to keep the hardware queues short, and to improve fairness between clients and vifs. The task of scheduling packet transmission is left up to the driver - queueing is controlled by mac80211. Drivers can only dequeue packets by calling ieee80211_tx_dequeue. This makes it possible to add active queue management later without changing drivers using this code. This can also be used as a starting point to implement A-MSDU aggregation in a way that does not add artificially induced latency.
