      mac80211: fix PS-Poll handling · 1a57081a
      Emmanuel Grumbach 提交于
      My commit below broken PS-Poll handling. In case the driver
      has no frames buffered, driver_release_tids will be 0, but
      calling find_highest_prio_tid() with 0 as a parameter is
      not a good idea:
      fls(0) - 1 = -1.
      This bug caused mac80211 to think that frames were buffered
      in the driver which in turn was confused because mac80211
      was asking to release frames that were not reported to
      exist.
      On iwlwifi, this led to the WARNING below:

      mac80211: move station statistics into sub-structs · e5a9f8d0

      Group station statistics by where they're (mostly) updated
      (TX, RX and TX-status) and group them into sub-structs of
      the struct sta_info.
      
      Also rename the variables since the grouping now makes it

      This makes it easier to identify where the statistics are
      updated in the code, and thus easier to think about them.

      mac80211: use ktime_get_seconds · 84b00607
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      The mac80211 code uses ktime_get_ts to measure the connected time.
      As this uses monotonic time, it is y2038 safe on 32-bit systems,
      but we still want to deprecate the use of 'timespec' because most
      other users are broken.
      
      This changes the code to use ktime_get_seconds() instead, which
      avoids the timespec structure and is slightly more efficient.

      mac80211: convert HW flags to unsigned long bitmap · 30686bf7
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      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.

      mac80211: lock rate control · 35c347ac
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Both minstrel (reported by Sven Eckelmann) and the iwlwifi rate
      control aren't properly taking concurrency into account. It's
      likely that the same is true for other rate control algorithms.
      
      In the case of minstrel this manifests itself in crashes when an
      update and other data access are run concurrently, for example
      when the stations change bandwidth or similar. In iwlwifi, this
      can cause firmware crashes.
      
      Since fixing all rate control algorithms will be very difficult,
      just provide locking for invocations. This protects the internal
      data structures the algorithms maintain.
      
      I've manipulated hostapd to test this, by having it change its
      advertised bandwidth roughly ever 150ms. At the same time, I'm
      running a flood ping between the client and the AP, which causes
      this race of update vs. get_rate/status to easily happen on the
      client. With this change, the system survives this test.

      mac80211: add an intermediate software queue implementation · ba8c3d6f
      Felix Fietkau 提交于
      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.

      mac80211: use rhashtable for station table · 7bedd0cf
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      We currently have a hand-rolled table with 256 entries and are
      using the last byte of the MAC address as the hash. This hash
      is obviously very fast, but collisions are easily created and
      we waste a lot of space in the common case of just connecting
      as a client to an AP where we just have a single station. The
      other common case of an AP is also suboptimal due to the size
      of the hash table and the ease of causing collisions.
      
      Convert all of this to use rhashtable with jhash, which gives
      us the advantage of a far better hash function (with random
      perturbation to avoid hash collision attacks) and of course
      that the hash table grows and shrinks dynamically with chain
      length, improving both cases above.
      
      Use a specialised hash function (using jhash, but with fixed
      length) to achieve better compiler optimisation as suggested
      by Sergey Ryazanov.

      This code turned out not to be as useful in the current form as we

      very suitable for upstream (for now), and we might just do that
      with tracing instead.
      
      Therefore, for now at least, remove this code. We might also need

      is more important than the debugging.

      mac80211: fix handling TIM IE when stations disconnect · 9b7a86f3
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      When a station disconnects with frames still pending, we clear
      the TIM bit, but too late - it's only cleared when the station
      is already removed from the driver, and thus the driver can get
      confused (and hwsim will loudly complain.)
      
      Fix this by clearing the TIM bit earlier, when the station has
      been unlinked but not removed from the driver yet. To do this,
      refactor the TIM recalculation to in that case ignore traffic
      and simply assume no pending traffic - this is correct for the
      disconnected station even though the frames haven't been freed
      yet at that point.
      
      This patch isn't needed for current drivers though as they don't
      check the station argument to the set_tim() operation and thus
      don't really run into the possible confusion.

      In many cases, drivers can filter things like beacons that will

      to fill, so some are still always done by mac80211.
      
      Note that this doesn't currently allow a driver to say "I know
      this value is wrong, don't report it at all", or to sum it up
      with a mac80211 value (as could be useful for "dropped misc"),
      that can be added if it turns out to be needed.
