Instead of maintaining separate sta_add/sta_remove callsites, implement it in sta_state when the driver has no sta_state implementation. The only behavioural change this should cause is in secure mesh mode: with this the station entries will only be created after the stations are set to AUTH. Given which drivers support mesh, this seems to not be a problem. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

(based on Eliad's patch) Add a callback to notify the low-level driver whenever the state of a station changes. The driver is only notified when the station is actually in the mac80211 hash table, not for pre-insert state transitions. To allow the driver to replace sta_add/remove calls with this, call extra transitions with the NOTEXIST state. This callback can fail, so we need to be careful in handling it when a station is inserted, particularly in the IBSS case where we still keep the station entry around for mac80211 purposes.

Setting keys and updating TKIP keys must use the BSS sdata (not AP_VLAN), so we translate. Move the translation into driver-ops wrappers instead of having it inline in the code to simplify the normal code flow. The same can be done for sta_add/remove which already does the translation in the wrapper. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

If the driver blocked this specific STA with the help of ieee80211_sta_block_awake we won't clear WLAN_STA_PS_STA later but still decrement num_sta_ps. Hence, the next data frame from this STA will trigger ap_sta_ps_end again and also decrement num_sta_ps again leading to an incorrect num_sta_ps counter. This can result in problems with powersaving clients not waking up from PS because the TIM calculation might be skipped due to the incorrect num_sta_ps counter.

When WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER is set by ieee80211_sta_block_awake the num_sta_ps counter is not incremented. Hence, we shouldn't decrement it in __sta_info_destroy if only WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER is set. This could result in an incorrect num_sta_ps counter leading to strange side effects with associated powersaving clients. Fix this by only decrementing num_sta_ps when WLAN_STA_PS_STA was set before.

In the future, when we start notifying drivers, state transitions could potentially fail. To make it easier to distinguish between programming bugs and driver failures: * rename sta_info_move_state() to sta_info_pre_move_state() which can only be called before the station is inserted (and check this with a new station flag). * rename sta_info_move_state_checked() to just plain sta_info_move_state(), as it will be the regular function that can fail for more than just one reason (bad transition or an error from the driver) This makes the programming model easier -- one of the functions can only be called before insertion and can't fail, the other can fail.

Station entries can have various states, the most important ones being auth, assoc and authorized. This patch prepares us for telling the driver about these states, we don't want to confuse drivers with strange transitions, so with this we enforce that they move in the right order between them (back and forth); some transitions might happen before the driver even knows about the station, but at least runtime transitions will be ordered correctly. As a consequence, IBSS and MESH stations will now have the ASSOC flag set (so they can transition to AUTHORIZED), and we can get rid of a special case in TX processing. When freeing a station, unwind the state so that other parts of the code (or drivers later) can rely on the transitions.

When a station leaves suddenly while ampdu traffic to that station is still running, there is a possibility that the ampdu pending queues are not freed due to a race condition leading to memory leaks. In '__sta_info_destroy' when we attempt to destroy the ampdu sessions in 'ieee80211_sta_tear_down_BA_sessions', the driver calls 'ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe' to delete the ampdu structures (tid_tx) and splice the pending queues and this job gets queued in sdata workqueue. However, the sta entry can get destroyed before the above work gets scheduled and hence the race. Purging the queues and freeing the tid_tx to avoid the leak. The better solution would be to fix the race, but that can be taken up in a separate patch.

iwlwifi has a separate EOSP notification from the device, and to make use of that properly it needs to be passed to mac80211. To be able to mix with tx_status_irqsafe and rx_irqsafe it also needs to be an "_irqsafe" version in the sense that it goes through the tasklet, the actual flag clearing would be IRQ-safe but doing it directly would cause reordering issues. This is needed in the case of a P2P GO going into an absence period without transmitting any frames that should be driver-released as in this case there's no other way to inform mac80211 that the service period ended. Note that for drivers that don't use the _irqsafe functions another version of this function will be required. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

iwlwifi needs to know the number of frames that are going to be sent to a station while it is asleep so it can properly handle the uCode blocking of that station. Before uAPSD, we got by by telling the device that a single frame was going to be released whenever we encountered IEEE80211_TX_CTL_POLL_RESPONSE. With uAPSD, however, that is no longer possible since there could be more than a single frame. To support this model, add a new callback to notify drivers when frames are going to be released.

If a PS-poll frame is retried (but was received) there is no way to detect that since it has no sequence number. As a consequence, the standard asks us to not react to PS-poll frames until the response to one made it out (was ACKed or lost). Implement this by using the WLAN_STA_SP flags to also indicate a PS-Poll "service period" and the IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag for the response packet to indicate the end of the "SP" as usual. We could use separate flags, but that will most likely completely confuse drivers, and while the standard doesn't exclude simultaneously polling using uAPSD and PS-Poll, doing that seems quite problematic.

Add uAPSD support to mac80211. This is probably not possible with all devices, so advertising it with the cfg80211 flag will be left up to drivers that want it. Due to my previous patches it is now a fairly straight-forward extension. Drivers need to have accurate TX status reporting for the EOSP frame. For drivers that buffer themselves, the provided APIs allow releasing the right number of frames, but then drivers need to set EOSP and more-data themselves.

If there are frames for a station buffered in the driver, mac80211 announces those in the TIM IE but there's no way to release them. Add new API to release such frames and use it when the station polls for a frame. Since the API will soon also be used for uAPSD it is easily extensible. Note that before this change drivers announcing driver-buffered frames in the TIM bit actually will respond to a PS-Poll with a potentially lower priority frame (if there are any frames buffered in mac80211), after this patch a driver that hasn't been changed will no longer respond at all.

For uAPSD implementation, it is necessary to know on which ACs frames are buffered. mac80211 obviously knows about the frames it has buffered itself, but with aggregation many drivers buffer frames. Thus, mac80211 needs to be informed about this. For now, since we don't have APSD in any form, this will unconditionally set the TIM bit for the station but later with uAPSD only some ACs might cause the TIM bit to be set. ath9k is the only driver using this API and I only modify it in the most basic way, it won't be able to implement uAPSD with this yet. But it can't do that anyway since there's no way to selectively release frames to the peer yet. Since drivers will buffer frames per TID, let them inform mac80211 on a per TID basis, mac80211 will then sort out the AC mapping itself.

When associating to an AP, the station might miss the first EAP packet that the AP sends due to a race condition between the association success procedure and the rx flow in mac80211. In such cases, the packet might fall in ieee80211_rx_h_check due to the fact that the relevant rx->sta wasn't allocated yet. Allocation of the relevant station info struct before actually sending the association request and setting it with a new dummy_sta flag solve this problem. The station will accept only EAP packets from the AP while it is in the pre-association/dummy state. This dummy station entry is not seen by normal sta_info_get() calls, only by sta_info_get_bss_rx(). The driver is not notified for the first insertion of the dummy station. The driver is notified only after the association is complete and the dummy flag is removed from the station entry. That way, all the rest of the code flow should be untouched by this change.
