This patch introduces a new mesh configuration parameter "ht_opmode" and will allow user to check the current HT protection mode selected. Users could configure the protection mode by the command "iw mesh_iface set mesh_param mesh_ht_protection_mode=2". The default protection mode of mesh is set to non-HT mixed mode.

Section 9.23.3.5 of IEEE 80211s standard describes the protection rules for HT mesh STA in a MBSS. Three HT protection modes are supported for now: non-HT mixed mode - is selected if any non-HT peers are present in our MBSS. 20MHz-protection mode - is selected if all peers in our 20/40MHz MBSS support HT and atleast one HT20 peer is present. no-protection mode - is selected otherwise. This is a limited implementation of 9.23.3.5, which only considers mesh peers when determining the HT protection mode. Station's channel_type needs to be maintained.

Drivers need the station rate info when inserting a new sta_info. The patch "mac80211: refactor mesh peer initialization" wrongly assumed the rate info could be applied after insertion. After further review, this is clearly not the case. This fixes a regression where HT parameters were not applied before inserting the sta_info, causing performance degradation.

Since some of the HT code pre-dates 802.11n-2009 some names are wrong. The one that bothers me most is that "HT operation" is called "HT information" in our code and that causes confusion. Rename "HT information" to "HT operation" and also the control_chan field to primary_chan to match the name used in the spec.

Mesh peer links are established only if average rssi of the peer candidate satisfies the threshold. This is not in 802.11s specification but was requested by David Fulgham, an open80211s user. This is a way to avoid marginal peer links with stations that are barely within range. This patch adds a new mesh configuration parameter, mesh_rssi_threshold. This feature is supported only for hardwares that report signal in dBm. Signed-off-by: NAshok Nagarajan <ashok@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: NJavier Cardona <javier@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

In the future, when we start notifying drivers, state transitions could potentially fail. To make it easier to distinguish between programming bugs and driver failures: * rename sta_info_move_state() to sta_info_pre_move_state() which can only be called before the station is inserted (and check this with a new station flag). * rename sta_info_move_state_checked() to just plain sta_info_move_state(), as it will be the regular function that can fail for more than just one reason (bad transition or an error from the driver) This makes the programming model easier -- one of the functions can only be called before insertion and can't fail, the other can fail.

Use local->tx_headroom instad of local->hw.extra_tx_headroom. local->tx_headroom is the max of hw.extra_tx_headroom required by the driver and the headroom required by mac80211 for status reporting. On drivers where hw.extra_tx_headroom is smaller than what mac80211 requires (e.g. ath5k), we would not reserve sufficient buffer space to report tx status. Also, don't reserve local->tx_headroom + local->hw.extra_tx_headroom.

Station entries can have various states, the most important ones being auth, assoc and authorized. This patch prepares us for telling the driver about these states, we don't want to confuse drivers with strange transitions, so with this we enforce that they move in the right order between them (back and forth); some transitions might happen before the driver even knows about the station, but at least runtime transitions will be ordered correctly. As a consequence, IBSS and MESH stations will now have the ASSOC flag set (so they can transition to AUTHORIZED), and we can get rid of a special case in TX processing. When freeing a station, unwind the state so that other parts of the code (or drivers later) can rely on the transitions.

HT40 may be disabled forcing the station to be HT20 even if the AP and local hardware support HT40. MAX-AMSDU may be disabled. AMPDU-Density may be increased. AMPDU-Factor may be decreased.

The flaglock in struct sta_info has long been something that I wanted to get rid of, this finally does the conversion to atomic bitops. The conversion itself is straight-forward in most places, a few things needed to change a bit since we can no longer use multiple bits at the same time.

Several changes took place to make this happen: - Change RX path to handle new self-protected frames - Add new Peering management IE - Remove old Peer Link IE - Remove old plink_action field in ieee80211_mgmt header These changes by themselves would either break peering, or work by coincidence, so squash them all into this patch.

Introduce a new configuration option to support AMPE from userspace. Prior to this series we only supported authentication in userspace: an authentication daemon would authenticate peer candidates in userspace and hand them over to the kernel. From that point the mesh stack would take over and establish a peer link (Mesh Peering Management). These patches introduce support for Authenticated Mesh Peering Exchange in userspace. The userspace daemon implements the AMPE protocol and on successfull completion create mesh peers and install encryption keys.
