      mac80211: add a single-transaction driver op to switch contexts · 1a5f0c13
      Luciano Coelho 提交于
      In some cases, when the driver is already using all the channel
      contexts it can handle at once, we have to do an in-place switch
      (ie. we cannot afford using an extra context temporarily for the
      transaction).  But some drivers may not support switching the channel
      context assigned to a vif on the fly (ie. without unassigning and
      assigning it) while others may only work if the context is changed on
      the fly, without unassigning it first.
      
      To allow these different scenarios, add a new driver operation that
      let's the driver decide how to handle an in-place switch.

      cfg80211: allow RSSI compensation · 67af9811
      Emmanuel Grumbach 提交于
      Channels in 2.4GHz band overlap, this means that if we
      send a probe request on channel 1 and then move to channel
      2, we will hear the probe response on channel 2. In this
      case, the RSSI will be lower than if we had heard it on
      the channel on which it was sent (1 in this case).
      
      The firmware / low level driver can parse the channel in
      the DS IE or HT IE and compensate the RSSI so that it will
      still have a valid value even if we heard the frame on an
      adjacent channel. This can be done up to a certain offset.
      
      Add this offset as a configuration for the low level driver.
      A low level driver that can compensate the low RSSI in this
      case should assign the maximal offset for which the RSSI
      value is still valid.

      cfg80211: export interface stopping function · f04c2203
      Michal Kazior 提交于
      This exports a new cfg80211_stop_iface() function.
      
      This is intended for driver internal interface
      combination management and channel switching.
      
      Due to locking issues (it re-enters driver) the
      call is asynchronous and uses cfg80211 event
      list/worker.

      mac80211: fix CSA tx queue stopping · 59af6928
      Michal Kazior 提交于
      It was possible for tx queues to be stuck stopped
      if AP CSA finalization failed. In that case
      neither stop_ap nor do_stop woke the queues up.
      This means it was impossible to perform tx at all
      until driver was reloaded or a successful CSA was
      performed later.
      
      It was possible to solve this in a simpler manner
      however this is more robust and future proof
      (having multi-vif CSA in mind).
      
      New sdata->csa_block_tx is introduced to keep
      track of which interfaces requested tx to be
      blocked for CSA. This is required because mac80211
      stops all tx queues for that purpose. This means
      queues must be awoken only when last tx-blocking
      CSA interface is finished.
      
      It is still possible to have tx queues stopped
      after CSA failure but as soon as offending
      interfaces are stopped from userspace (stop_ap or
      ifdown) tx queues are woken up properly.

      net: Add a test to see if a skb is freeable in irq context · 574f7194
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Currently netpoll and skb_release_head_state assume that a skb is
      freeable in hard irq context except when skb->destructor is set.
      
      The reality is far from this.  So add a function skb_irq_freeable to
      compute the full test and in the process be the living documentation
      of what the requirements are of actually freeing a skb in hard irq
      context.

      net: ptp: move PTP classifier in its own file · 408eccce
      Daniel Borkmann 提交于
      This commit fixes a build error reported by Fengguang, that is
      triggered when CONFIG_NETWORK_PHY_TIMESTAMPING is not set:
      
        ERROR: "ptp_classify_raw" [drivers/net/ethernet/oki-semi/pch_gbe/pch_gbe.ko] undefined!
      
      The fix is to introduce its own file for the PTP BPF classifier,
      so that PTP_1588_CLOCK and/or NETWORK_PHY_TIMESTAMPING can select
      it independently from each other. IXP4xx driver on ARM needs to
      select it as well since it does not seem to select PTP_1588_CLOCK
      or similar that would pull it in automatically.
      
      This also allows for hiding all of the internals of the BPF PTP
      program inside that file, and only exporting relevant API bits
      to drivers.
      
      This patch also adds a kdoc documentation of ptp_classify_raw()
      API to make it clear that it can return PTP_CLASS_* defines. Also,
      the BPF program has been translated into bpf_asm code, so that it
      can be more easily read and altered (extensively documented in [1]).
      
      In the kernel tree under tools/net/ we have bpf_asm and bpf_dbg
      tools, so the commented program can simply be translated via
      `./bpf_asm -c prog` where prog is a file that contains the
      commented code. This makes it easily readable/verifiable and when
      there's a need to change something, jump offsets etc do not need
      to be replaced manually which can be very error prone. Instead,
      a newly translated version via bpf_asm can simply replace the old
      code. I have checked opcode diffs before/after and it's the very
      same filter.

      HID: uhid: Add UHID_CREATE2 + UHID_INPUT2 · 4522643a
      Petri Gynther 提交于
      UHID_CREATE2:
      HID report descriptor data (rd_data) is an array in struct uhid_create2_req,
      instead of a pointer. Enables use from languages that don't support pointers,
      e.g. Python.
      
      UHID_INPUT2:
      Data array is the last field of struct uhid_input2_req. Enables userspace to
      write only the required bytes to kernel (ev.type + ev.u.input2.size + the part
      of the data array that matters), instead of the entire struct uhid_input2_req.
      
      Note:
      UHID_CREATE2 increases the total size of struct uhid_event slightly, thus
      increasing the size of messages that are queued for userspace. However, this
      won't affect the userspace processing of these events.

      net-gro: restore frag0 optimization · a50e233c
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      Main difference between napi_frags_skb() and napi_gro_receive() is that
      the later is called while ethernet header was already pulled by the NIC
      driver (eth_type_trans() was called before napi_gro_receive())
      
      Jerry Chu in commit 299603e8 ("net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the
      upcoming tunneling support") tried to remove this difference by calling
      eth_type_trans() from napi_frags_skb() instead of doing this later from
      napi_frags_finish()
      
      Goal was that napi_gro_complete() could call
      ptype->callbacks.gro_complete(skb, 0)  (offset of first network header =
      0)
      
      Also, xxx_gro_receive() handlers all use off = skb_gro_offset(skb) to
      point to their own header, for the current skb and ones held in gro_list
      
      Problem is this cleanup work defeated the frag0 optimization:
      It turns out the consecutive pskb_may_pull() calls are too expensive.
      
      This patch brings back the frag0 stuff in napi_frags_skb().
      
      As all skb have their mac header in skb head, we no longer need
      skb_gro_mac_header()
