      cfg80211: change bandwidth reporting to explicit field · b51f3bee
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      For some reason, we made the bandwidth separate flags, which
      is rather confusing - a single rate cannot have different
      bandwidths at the same time.
      
      Change this to no longer be flags but use a separate field
      for the bandwidth ('bw') instead.
      
      While at it, add support for 5 and 10 MHz rates - these are
      reported as regular legacy rates with their real bitrate,
      but tagged as 5/10 now to make it easier to distinguish them.
      
      In the nl80211 API, the flags are preserved, but the code
      now can also clearly only set a single one of the flags.

      nl80211: support per-TID station statistics · 6de39808
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      The base for the current statistics is pretty mixed up, support
      exporting RX/TX statistics for MSDUs per TID. This (currently)
      covers received MSDUs, transmitted MSDUs and retries/failures
      thereof.
      
      Doing it per TID for MSDUs makes more sense than say only per AC
      because it's symmetric - we could export per-AC statistics for all
      frames (which AC we used for transmission can be determined also
      for management frames) but per TID is better and usually data
      frames are really the ones we care about. Also, on RX we can't
      determine the AC - but we do know the TID for any QoS MPDU we
      received.

      mac80211: allow drivers to provide most station statistics · 2b9a7e1b
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      In many cases, drivers can filter things like beacons that will
      skew statistics reported by mac80211. To get correct statistics
      in these cases, call drivers to obtain statistics and let them
      override all values, filling values from mac80211 if the driver
      didn't provide them. Not all of them make sense for the driver
      to fill, so some are still always done by mac80211.
      
      Note that this doesn't currently allow a driver to say "I know
      this value is wrong, don't report it at all", or to sum it up
      with a mac80211 value (as could be useful for "dropped misc"),
      that can be added if it turns out to be needed.
      
      This also gets rid of the get_rssi() method as is can now be
      implemented using sta_statistics().

      mac80211: Re-fix accounting of the tailroom-needed counter · db12847c
      Ido Yariv 提交于
      When hw acceleration is enabled, the GENERATE_IV or PUT_IV_SPACE flags
      only require headroom space. Therefore, the tailroom-needed counter can
      safely be decremented for most drivers.
      
      The older incarnation of this patch (ca34e3b5) assumed that the above
      holds true for all drivers. As reported by Christopher Chavez and
      researched by Christian Lamparter and Larry Finger, this isn't a valid
      assumption for p54 and cw1200.
      
      Drivers that still require tailroom for ICV/MIC even when HW encryption
      is enabled can use IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_RESERVE_TAILROOM to indicate it.

      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.

      arch: Add lightweight memory barriers dma_rmb() and dma_wmb() · 1077fa36
      Alexander Duyck 提交于
      There are a number of situations where the mandatory barriers rmb() and
      wmb() are used to order memory/memory operations in the device drivers
      and those barriers are much heavier than they actually need to be.  For
      example in the case of PowerPC wmb() calls the heavy-weight sync
      instruction when for coherent memory operations all that is really needed
      is an lsync or eieio instruction.
      
      This commit adds a coherent only version of the mandatory memory barriers
      rmb() and wmb().  In most cases this should result in the barrier being the
      same as the SMP barriers for the SMP case, however in some cases we use a
      barrier that is somewhere in between rmb() and smp_rmb().  For example on
      ARM the rmb barriers break down as follows:
      
        Barrier   Call     Explanation
        --------- -------- ----------------------------------
        rmb()     dsb()    Data synchronization barrier - system
        dma_rmb() dmb(osh) data memory barrier - outer sharable
        smp_rmb() dmb(ish) data memory barrier - inner sharable
      
      These new barriers are not as safe as the standard rmb() and wmb().
      Specifically they do not guarantee ordering between coherent and incoherent
      memories.  The primary use case for these would be to enforce ordering of
      reads and writes when accessing coherent memory that is shared between the
      CPU and a device.
      
      It may also be noted that there is no dma_mb().  Most architectures don't
      provide a good mechanism for performing a coherent only full barrier without
      resorting to the same mechanism used in mb().  As such there isn't much to
      be gained in trying to define such a function.

      net/mlx4: Add support for A0 steering · 7d077cd3
      Matan Barak 提交于
      Add the required firmware commands for A0 steering and a way to enable
      that. The firmware support focuses on INIT_HCA, QUERY_HCA, QUERY_PORT,
      QUERY_DEV_CAP and QUERY_FUNC_CAP commands. Those commands are used
      to configure and query the device.
      
      The different A0 DMFS (steering) modes are:
      
      Static - optimized performance, but flow steering rules are
      limited. This mode should be choosed explicitly by the user
      in order to be used.
      
      Dynamic - this mode should be explicitly choosed by the user.
      In this mode, the FW works in optimized steering mode as long as
      it can and afterwards automatically drops to classic (full) DMFS.
      
      Disable - this mode should be explicitly choosed by the user.
      The user instructs the system not to use optimized steering, even if
      the FW supports Dynamic A0 DMFS (and thus will be able to use optimized
      steering in Default A0 DMFS mode).
      
      Default - this mode is implicitly choosed. In this mode, if the FW
      supports Dynamic A0 DMFS, it'll work in this mode. Otherwise, it'll
      work at Disable A0 DMFS mode.
      
      Under SRIOV configuration, when the A0 steering mode is enabled,
      older guest VF drivers who aren't using the RX QP allocation flag
      (MLX4_RESERVE_A0_QP) will get a QP from the general range and
      fail when attempting to register a steering rule. To avoid that,
      the PF context behaviour is changed once on A0 static mode, to
      require support for the allocation flag in VF drivers too.
      
      In order to enable A0 steering, we use log_num_mgm_entry_size param.
      If the value of the parameter is not positive, we treat the absolute
      value of log_num_mgm_entry_size as a bit field. Setting bit 2 of this
      bit field enables static A0 steering.

      net/mlx4: Add A0 hybrid steering · d57febe1
      Matan Barak 提交于
      A0 hybrid steering is a form of high performance flow steering.
      By using this mode, mlx4 cards use a fast limited table based steering,
      in order to enable fast steering of unicast packets to a QP.
      
      In order to implement A0 hybrid steering we allocate resources
      from different zones:
      (1) General range
      (2) Special MAC-assigned QPs [RSS, Raw-Ethernet] each has its own region.
      
      When we create a rss QP or a raw ethernet (A0 steerable and BF ready) QP,
      we try hard to allocate the QP from range (2). Otherwise, we try hard not
      to allocate from this  range. However, when the system is pushed to its
      limits and one needs every resource, the allocator uses every region it can.
      
      Meaning, when we run out of raw-eth qps, the allocator allocates from the
      general range (and the special-A0 area is no longer active). If we run out
      of RSS qps, the mechanism tries to allocate from the raw-eth QP zone. If that
      is also exhausted, the allocator will allocate from the general range
      (and the A0 region is no longer active).
      
      Note that if a raw-eth qp is allocated from the general range, it attempts
      to allocate the range such that bits 6 and 7 (blueflame bits) in the
      QP number are not set.
      
      When the feature is used in SRIOV, the VF has to notify the PF what
      kind of QP attributes it needs. In order to do that, along with the
      "Eth QP blueflame" bit, we reserve a new "A0 steerable QP". According
      to the combination of these bits, the PF tries to allocate a suitable QP.
      
      In order to maintain backward compatibility (with older PFs), the PF
      notifies which QP attributes it supports via QUERY_FUNC_CAP command.
