      mac80211: manage RX BA session offload without SKB queue · 699cb58c
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Instead of using the SKB queue with the fake pkt_type for the
      offloaded RX BA session management, also handle this with the
      normal aggregation state machine worker. This also makes the
      use of this more reliable since it gets rid of the allocation
      of the fake skb.
      
      Combined with the previous patch, this finally allows us to
      get rid of the pkt_type hack entirely, so do that as well.

      net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state. · cf124db5
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
      netdev_ops->ndo_init().  However, the release of these resources
      can occur in one of two different places.
      
      Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor().
      
      The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
      whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
      is safe to perform the freeing.
      
      netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
      NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
      address lists are flushed.
      
      netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
      netdev references all go away.
      
      Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor()
      almost universally does also a free_netdev().
      
      This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
      Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
      of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
      fails.
      
      If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
      of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit().  But
      it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor().
      
      This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
      then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.
      
      However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
      by netdev->destructor() will not be.
      
      Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
      invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
      fails.
      
      Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.
      
      Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
      private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether
      the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().
      
      netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
      resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for
      free_netdev().
      
      netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
      free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().
      
      Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
      ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit()
      and netdev->priv_destructor().
      
      And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
      netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

      mac80211: fix TX aggregation start/stop callback race · 7a7c0a64
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      When starting or stopping an aggregation session, one of the steps
      is that the driver calls back to mac80211 that the start/stop can
      proceed. This is handled by queueing up a fake SKB and processing
      it from the normal iface/sdata work. Since this isn't flushed when
      disassociating, the following race is possible:
      
       * associate
       * start aggregation session
       * driver callback
       * disassociate
       * associate again to the same AP
       * callback processing runs, leading to a WARN_ON() that
         the TID hadn't requested aggregation
      
      If the second association isn't to the same AP, there would only
      be a message printed ("Could not find station: <addr>"), but the
      same race could happen.
      
      Fix this by not going the whole detour with a fake SKB etc. but
      simply looking up the aggregation session in the driver callback,
      marking it with a START_CB/STOP_CB bit and then scheduling the
      regular aggregation work that will now process these bits as well.
      This also simplifies the code and gets rid of the whole problem
      with allocation failures of said skb, which could have left the
      session in limbo.

      mac80211: Dynamically set CoDel parameters per station · 484a54c2
      Toke Høiland-Jørgensen 提交于
      CoDel can be too aggressive if a station sends at a very low rate,
      leading reduced throughput. This gets worse the more stations are
      present, as each station gets more bursty the longer the round-robin
      scheduling between stations takes.
      
      This adds dynamic adjustment of CoDel parameters per station. It uses
      the rate selection information to estimate throughput and sets more
      lenient CoDel parameters if the estimated throughput is below a
      threshold (modified by the number of active stations).
      
      A new callback is added that drivers can use to notify mac80211 about
      changes in expected throughput, so the same adjustment can be made for
      cards that implement rate control in firmware. Drivers that don't use
      this will just get the default parameters.
