      mac80211: process station blockack action frames from work · 8b9a4e6e
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Processing an association response could take a bit
      of time while we set up the hardware etc. During that
      time, the AP might already send a blockack request.
      If this happens very quickly on a fairly slow machine,
      we can end up processing the blockack request before
      the association processing has finished. Since the
      blockack processing cannot sleep right now, we also
      cannot make it wait in the driver.
      
      As a result, sometimes on slow machines the iwlagn
      driver gets totally confused, and no traffic can pass
      when the aggregation setup was done before the assoc
      setup completed.
      
      I'm working on a proper fix for this, which involves
      queuing all blockack category action frames from a
      work struct, and also allowing the ampdu_action driver
      callback to sleep, which will generally clean up the
      code and make things easier.
      
      However, this is a very involved and complex change.
      To fix the problem at hand in a way that can also be
      backported to stable, I've come up with this patch.
      Here, I simply process all aggregation action frames
      from the managed interface skb queue, which means
      their processing will be serialized with processing
      the association response, thereby fixing the problem.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      cfg80211/mac80211: allow registering for and sending action frames · 026331c4
      Jouni Malinen 提交于
      This implements a new command to register for action frames
      that userspace wants to handle instead of the in-kernel
      rejection. It is then responsible for rejecting ones that
      it decided not to handle. There is no unregistration, but
      the socket can be closed for that.
      
      Frames that are not registered for will not be forwarded
      to userspace and will be rejected by the kernel, the
      cfg80211 API helps implementing that.
      
      Additionally, this patch adds a new command that allows
      doing action frame transmission from userspace. It can be
      used either to exchange action frames on the current
      operational channel (e.g., with the AP with which we are
      currently associated) or to exchange off-channel Public
      Action frames with the remain-on-channel command.
