      mac80211: Allocate new mesh path and portal tables before taking locks · a3e6b12c
      cozybit Inc 提交于
      It is unnecessary to hold the path table resize lock while allocating a
      new table.  Allocate first and take lock later.  This resolves a
      soft-lockup:

      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.

      mac80211: reduce reliance on netdev · 47846c9b
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      For bluetooth 3, we will most likely not have
      a netdev for a virtual interface (sdata), so
      prepare for that by reducing the reliance on
      having a netdev. This patch moves the name
      and address fields into the sdata struct and
      uses them from there all over. Some work is
      needed to keep them sync'ed, but that's not
      a lot of work and in slow paths anyway.
      
      In doing so, this also reduces the number of
      pointer dereferences in many places, because
      of things like sdata->dev->dev_addr becoming
      sdata->vif.addr.

      mac80211: use correct address for mesh Path Error · 35946a57
      Javier Cardona 提交于
      For forwarded frames, we save the precursor address in addr1 in case it
      needs to be used to send a Path Error.  mesh_path_discard_frame,
      however, was using addr2 instead of addr1 to send Path Error frames, so
      correct that and also make the comment regarding this more clear.

      mac80211: disable mesh · e2e414d9
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      My kvm instance was complaining a lot about sleeping
      in atomic contexts in the mesh code, and it turns out
      that both mesh_path_add() and mpp_path_add() need to
      be able to sleep (they even use synchronize_rcu()!).
      I put in a might_sleep() to annotate that, but I see
      no way, at least right now, of actually making sure
      those functions are only called from process context
      since they are both called during TX and RX and the
      mesh code itself even calls them with rcu_read_lock()
      "held".
      
      Therefore, let's disable it completely for now.
      
      It's possible that I'm only seeing this because the
      hwsim's beaconing is broken and thus the peers aren't
      discovered right away, but it is possible that this
      happens even if beaconing is working, for a peer that
      doesn't exist or so.
      
      It should be possible to solve this by deferring the
      freeing of the tables to call_rcu() instead of using
      synchronize_rcu(), and also using atomic allocations,
      but maybe it makes more sense to rework the code to
      not call these from atomic contexts and defer more of
      the work to the workqueue. Right now, I can't work on
      either of those solutions though.

      build algorithms into the mac80211 module · e5f5e733
      Adrian Bunk 提交于
      The old infrastructure was:
      - the default algorithm is built into mac80211
      - other algorithms get into their own modules
      
      The implementation of this complicated scheme was horrible
      (just look at net/mac80211/Makefile), and anyone adding a new
      algorithm would most likely not get it right at his first attempt.
      
      This patch therefore builds all enabled algorithms into the mac80211
      module.
      
      The user interface for the rate control algorithms changes as follows:
      - first the user can choose which algorithms to enable (currently only
        MAC80211_RC_PID is available)
      - if more than one algorithm is enabled (currently not possible since
        only one algorithm is present) the user then chooses the default one
      
      Note:
      - MAC80211_RC_PID is always enables for CONFIG_EMBEDDED=n
      
      Technical changes:
      - all selected algorithms get into the mac80211 module
      - net/mac80211/Makefile can now become much less complicated
      - support for rc80211_pid_algo.c being modular is no longer required
      - this includes unexporting mesh_plink_broken
