      mac80211: add separate last_ack variable · b8da6b6a
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Instead of touching the rx_stats.last_rx from the status path, introduce
      and use a status_stats.last_ack variable. This will make rx_stats.last_rx
      indicate when the last frame was received, making it available for real
      "last_rx" and statistics gathering; statistics, when done per-CPU, will
      need to figure out which place was updated last for those items where the
      "last" value is exposed.

      mac80211: Don't buffer non-bufferable MMPDUs · da629cf1
      Helmut Schaa 提交于
      Non-bufferable MMPDUs are sent out to STAs even while in PS mode
      (for example probe responses). Applying filtered frame handling for
      these doesn't seem to make much sense and will only create more
      air utilization when the STA wakes up. Hence, apply filtered frame
      handling only for bufferable MMPDUs.
      
      Discovered while testing an old VOIP phone that started probing
      for APs while in PS mode. The mac80211/ath9k AP where the STA is
      associated would reply with a probe response but the phone sometimes
      moved to a new channel already and couldn't ack the probe response
      anymore. In that case mac80211 applied filtered frame handling
      for the un-acked probe response.

      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: stop using pointers as userspace cookies · 3b79af97
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Even if the pointers are really only accessible to root and used
      pretty much only by wpa_supplicant, this is still not great; even
      for debugging it'd be easier to have something that's easier to
      read and guaranteed to never get reused.
      
      With the recent change to make mac80211 create an ack_skb for the
      mgmt-tx path this becomes possible, only the client probe method
      needs to also allocate an ack_skb, and we can store the cookie in
      that skb.

      Johannes Berg 提交于
      When we return the TX status for an nl80211 mgmt TX SKB, we
      should also return the original frame with the status to
      allow userspace to match up the submission (it could also
      use the cookie but both ways are permissible.)
      
      As TX SKBs could be encrypted, at least in the case of ANQP
      while associated with the AP, copy the original SKB, store
      it with an ACK frame ID and restructure the status path to
      use that to return status with the original SKB. Otherwise,
      userspace (in particular wpa_supplicant) will get confused.

      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.

      mac80211: remove TX latency measurement code · abfbc3af
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Revert commit ad38bfc9 ("mac80211: Tx frame latency statistics")
      (along with some follow-up fixes).
      
      This code turned out not to be as useful in the current form as we
      thought, and we've internally hacked it up more, but that's not
      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
      to use the skb->tstamp field for the TCP performance issue, which
      is more important than the debugging.

      mac80211: Fix accounting of multicast frames · 5cf16616
      Sujith Manoharan 提交于
      Since multicast frames are marked as no-ack, using
      IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK to check if they have been
      successfully transmitted by the driver is incorrect
      since a driver can choose to ignore transmission status
      for no-ack frames. This results in incorrect accounting
      for such frames.
      
      To fix this issue, this patch introduces a new flag
      that can be used by drivers to indicate error-free
      transmission of no-ack frames.

      mac80211: add WMM admission control support · 02219b3a
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Use the currently existing APIs between mac80211 and the low
      level driver to implement WMM admission control.
      
      The low level driver needs to report the media time used by
      each transmitted packet in ieee80211_tx_status. Based on that
      information, mac80211 will modify the QoS parameters of the
      admission controlled Access Category when the limit is
      reached. Once the original QoS parameters can be restored,
      mac80211 will do so.
      
      One issue with this approach is that management frames will
      also erroneously be downgraded, but the upside is that the
      implementation is simple. In the future, it can be extended
      to driver- or device-based implementations that are better.

      mac80211: implement SMPS for AP · 687da132
      Emmanuel Grumbach 提交于
      When the driver requests to move to STATIC or DYNAMIC SMPS,
      we send an action frame to each associated station and
      reconfigure the channel context / driver.
      Of course, non-MIMO stations are ignored.
      
      The beacon isn't updated. The association response will
      include the original capabilities. Stations that associate
      while in non-OFF SMPS mode will get an action frame right
      after association to inform them about our current state.
      Note that we wait until the end of the EAPOL. Sending an
      action frame before the EAPOL is finished can be an issue
      for a few clients. Clients aren't likely to send EAPOL
      frames in MIMO anyway.
      
      When the SMPS configuration gets more permissive (e.g.
      STATIC -> OFF), we don't wake up stations that are asleep
      We remember that they don't know about the change and send
      the action frame when they wake up.
      
      When the SMPS configuration gets more restrictive (e.g.
      OFF -> STATIC), we set the TIM bit for every sleeping STA.
      uAPSD stations might send MIMO until they poll the action
      frame, but this is for a short period of time.

      mac80211: mesh power save basics · 3f52b7e3
      Marco Porsch 提交于
      Add routines to
      - maintain a PS mode for each peer and a non-peer PS mode
      - indicate own PS mode in transmitted frames
      - track neighbor STAs power modes
      - buffer frames when neighbors are in PS mode
      - add TIM and Awake Window IE to beacons
      - release frames in Mesh Peer Service Periods
      
      Add local_pm to sta_info to represent the link-specific power
      mode at this station towards the remote station. When a peer
      link is established, use the default power mode stored in mesh
      config. Update the PS status if the peering status of a neighbor
      changes.
      Maintain a mesh power mode for non-peer mesh STAs. Set the
      non-peer power mode to active mode during peering. Authenticated
      mesh peering is currently not working when either node is
      configured to be in power save mode.
      
      Indicate the current power mode in transmitted frames. Use QoS
      Nulls to indicate mesh power mode transitions.
      For performance reasons, calls to the function setting the frame
      flags are placed in HWMP routing routines, as there the STA
      pointer is already available.
      
      Add peer_pm to sta_info to represent the peer's link-specific
      power mode towards the local station. Add nonpeer_pm to
      represent the peer's power mode towards all non-peer stations.
      Track power modes based on received frames.
      
      Add the ps_data structure to ieee80211_if_mesh (for TIM map, PS
      neighbor counter and group-addressed frame buffer).
      
      Set WLAN_STA_PS flag for STA in PS mode to use the unicast frame
      buffering routines in the tx path. Update num_sta_ps to buffer
      and release group-addressed frames after DTIM beacons.
      
      Announce the awake window duration in beacons if in light or
      deep sleep mode towards any peer or non-peer. Create a TIM IE
      similarly to AP mode and add it to mesh beacons. Parse received
      Awake Window IEs and check TIM IEs for buffered frames.
      
      Release frames towards peers in mesh Peer Service Periods. Use
      the corresponding trigger frames and monitor the MPSP status.
      Append a QoS Null as trigger frame if neccessary to properly end
      the MPSP. Currently, in HT channels MPSPs behave imperfectly and
      show large delay spikes and frame losses.

      mac80211: start auth/assoc timeout on frame status · 1672c0e3
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      When sending authentication/association frames they
      might take a bit of time to go out because we may
      have to synchronise with the AP, in particular in
      the case where it's really a P2P GO. In this case
      the 200ms fixed timeout could potentially be too
      short if the beacon interval is relatively large.
      
      For drivers that report TX status we can do better.
      Instead of starting the timeout directly, start it
      only when the frame status arrives. Since then the
      frame was out on the air, we can wait shorter (the
      typical response time is supposed to be 30ms, wait
      100ms.) Also, if the frame failed to be transmitted
      try again right away instead of waiting.
