When a directed tim bit is set, mac80211 currently disables power save ands sends a null frame to the AP. But if dynamic power save is disabled, mac80211 will not enable power save ever gain. Fix this by adding ps-poll functionality to mac80211. When a directed tim bit is set, mac80211 sends a ps-poll frame to the AP and checks for the more data bit in the returned data frames. Using ps-poll is slower than waking up with null frame, but it's saves more power in cases where the traffic is low. Userspace can control if either ps-poll or null wakeup method is used by enabling and disabling dynamic power save. Signed-off-by: NKalle Valo <kalle.valo@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

Currently mac80211 checks for the multicast tim bit from beacons, disables power save and sends a null frame if the bit is set. This was added to support ath9k. But this is a bit controversial because the AP will send multicast frames immediately after the beacon and the time constraints are really high. Relying mac80211 to be fast enough here might not be reliable in all situations. And there's no need to send a null frame, AP will send the frames immediately after the dtim beacon no matter what. Also if dynamic power save is disabled (iwconfig wlan0 power timeout 0) currently mac80211 disables power save whenever the multicast bit is set but it's never enabled again after receiving the first multicast/broadcast frame. The current implementation is not usable on p54/stlc45xx and the easiest way to fix this is to remove the multicast tim bit check altogether. Handling multicast tim bit in host is rare, most of the designs do this in firmware/hardware, so it's better not to have it in mac80211. It's a lot better to do this in firmware/hardware, or if that's not possible it could be done in the driver. Also renamed the function to ieee80211_check_tim() to follow the style of the file.

This issue happens only when we are associated with a 11n AP and power save is enabled. In the function 'ieee80211_master_start_xmit', ps_disable_work is queued where wake_queues is called. But before this work is executed, we check if the queues are stopped in _ieee80211_tx and return TX_AGAIN to ieee8011_tx which leads to the warning message. This patch fixes this erroneous case.

Monitor mode is able to TX by using injected frames. We should not allow injected frames to be sent unless allowed by regulatory rules. Since AP mode uses a monitor interfaces to transmit management frames we have to take care to not break AP mode as well while resolving this. We can deal with this by allowing compliant APs solutions to inform mac80211 if their monitor interface is intended to be used for an AP by setting a cfg80211 flag for the monitor interface. hostapd, for example, currently does its own checks to ensure AP mode is not used on channels which require radar detection. Once such solutions are available it can can add this flag for monitor interfaces. Acked-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NLuis R.

Giving the signal in dB isn't much more useful to userspace than giving the signal in unspecified units. This removes some radiotap information for zd1211 (the only driver using this flag), but it helps a lot for getting cfg80211-based scanning which won't support dB, and zd1211 being dB is a little fishy anyway.

I hold back this patch for around a week to avoid confusion. This is the second step of "mac80211: Fixed BSSID handling revisited". With it, in the situation of a strange merge to the same BSSID (e.g. caused by a TSF overflow) only reset_tsf() is called. And sta_info_flush_delayed() is only called if you change the network manually, not on an automatic BSSID merge. Signed-off-by: NAlina Friedrichsen <x-alina@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

This fixes a bug when creating a new IBSS network with a fixed BSSID. The fixed BSSID situation is now with one of my last patches handled in ieee80211_sta_find_ibss() function. It's more robust to test against (ifsta->flags & IEEE80211_STA_PREV_BSSID_SET), because ifsta->state is not seted right in every situation and so the creating of the new IBSS network sometimes hangs after the first try to scan for a network to merge.

Currently, netlink_broadcast() reports errors to the caller if no messages at all were delivered: 1) If, at least, one message has been delivered correctly, returns 0. 2) Otherwise, if no messages at all were delivered due to skb_clone() failure, return -ENOBUFS. 3) Otherwise, if there are no listeners, return -ESRCH. With this patch, the caller knows if the delivery of any of the messages to the listeners have failed: 1) If it fails to deliver any message (for whatever reason), return -ENOBUFS. 2) Otherwise, if all messages were delivered OK, returns 0. 3) Otherwise, if no listeners, return -ESRCH. In the current ctnetlink code and in Netfilter in general, we can add reliable logging and connection tracking event delivery by dropping the packets whose events were not successfully delivered over Netlink. Of course, this option would be settable via /proc as this approach reduces performance (in terms of filtered connections per seconds by a stateful firewall) but providing reliable logging and event delivery (for conntrackd) in return. This patch also changes some clients of netlink_broadcast() that may report ENOBUFS errors via printk. This error handling is not of any help. Instead, the userspace daemons that are listening to those netlink messages should resync themselves with the kernel-side if they hit ENOBUFS. BTW, netlink_broadcast() clients include those that call cn_netlink_send(), nlmsg_multicast() and genlmsg_multicast() since they internally call netlink_broadcast() and return its error value.
