Some drivers (such as iwlmvm) can handle multiple bands in a single HW scan request. Add a HW flag to indicate that the driver support this. To hold the required data, create a separate structure for HW scan request that holds cfg scan request and data about different parts of the scan IEs. As this changes the mac80211 API, update all drivers using it to use the correct new function type/argument.

After sending a TDLS discovery-request, we expect a reply to arrive on the AP's channel. We must stay on the channel (no PSM, scan, etc.), since a TDLS setup-response is a direct packet not buffered by the AP. Add a new mac80211 driver callback to allow discovery session protection.

Currently, cfg80211 tries to implement ethtool, but that doesn't really scale well, with all the different operations. Make the lower-level driver responsible for it, which currently only has an effect on mac80211. It will similarly not scale well at that level though, since mac80211 also has many drivers. To cleanly implement this in mac80211, introduce a new file and move some code to appropriate places. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

The DRR scheduler requires that items on the active list are work conserving, i.e. do not hold on to skbs for throttling purposes, etc. Attaching e.g. tbf renders DRR useless because all other classes on the active list are delayed as well. So, warn users that this configuration won't work as expected; we already do this in couple of other qdiscs, see e.g. commit b00355db ('pkt_sched: sch_hfsc: sch_htb: Add non-work-conserving warning handler') The 'const' change is needed to avoid compiler warning ("discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type"). tested with: drr_hier() { parent=$1 classes=$2 for i in $(seq 1 $classes); do classid=$parent$(printf %x $i) tc class add dev eth0 parent $parent classid $classid drr tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent $classid tbf rate 64kbit burst 256kbit limit 64kbit done } tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: drr drr_hier 1: 32 tc filter add dev eth0 protocol all pref 1 parent 1: handle 1 flow hash keys dst perturb 1 divisor 32 Signed-off-by: NFlorian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

I noticed we were sending wrong IPv4 ID in TCP flows when MTU discovery is disabled. Note how GSO/TSO packets do not have monotonically incrementing ID. 06:37:41.575531 IP (id 14227, proto: TCP (6), length: 4396) 06:37:41.575534 IP (id 14272, proto: TCP (6), length: 65212) 06:37:41.575544 IP (id 14312, proto: TCP (6), length: 57972) 06:37:41.575678 IP (id 14317, proto: TCP (6), length: 7292) 06:37:41.575683 IP (id 14361, proto: TCP (6), length: 63764) It appears I introduced this bug in linux-3.1. inet_getid() must return the old value of peer->ip_id_count, not the new one. Lets revert this part, and remove the prevention of a null identification field in IPv6 Fragment Extension Header, which is dubious and not even done properly.

Ideally, we would need to generate IP ID using a per destination IP generator. linux kernels used inet_peer cache for this purpose, but this had a huge cost on servers disabling MTU discovery. 1) each inet_peer struct consumes 192 bytes 2) inetpeer cache uses a binary tree of inet_peer structs, with a nominal size of ~66000 elements under load. 3) lookups in this tree are hitting a lot of cache lines, as tree depth is about 20. 4) If server deals with many tcp flows, we have a high probability of not finding the inet_peer, allocating a fresh one, inserting it in the tree with same initial ip_id_count, (cf secure_ip_id()) 5) We garbage collect inet_peer aggressively. IP ID generation do not have to be 'perfect' Goal is trying to avoid duplicates in a short period of time, so that reassembly units have a chance to complete reassembly of fragments belonging to one message before receiving other fragments with a recycled ID. We simply use an array of generators, and a Jenkin hash using the dst IP as a key. ipv6_select_ident() is put back into net/ipv6/ip6_output.c where it belongs (it is only used from this file) secure_ip_id() and secure_ipv6_id() no longer are needed. Rename ip_select_ident_more() to ip_select_ident_segs() to avoid unnecessary decrement/increment of the number of segments. Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

In some cases, when the driver is already using all the channel contexts it can handle at once, we have to do an in-place switch (ie. we cannot afford using an extra context temporarily for the transaction). But some drivers may not support switching the channel context assigned to a vif on the fly (ie. without unassigning and assigning it) while others may only work if the context is changed on the fly, without unassigning it first. To allow these different scenarios, add a new driver operation that let's the driver decide how to handle an in-place switch.

Experience with the recent e114a710 ("tcp: fix cwnd limited checking to improve congestion control") has shown that there are common cases where that commit can cause cwnd to be much larger than necessary. This leads to TSO autosizing cooking skbs that are too large, among other things. The main problems seemed to be: (1) That commit attempted to predict the future behavior of the connection by looking at the write queue (if TSO or TSQ limit sending). That prediction sometimes overestimated future outstanding packets. (2) That commit always allowed cwnd to grow to twice the number of outstanding packets (even in congestion avoidance, where this is not needed). This commit improves both of these, by: (1) Switching to a measurement-based approach where we explicitly track the largest number of packets in flight during the past window ("max_packets_out"), and remember whether we were cwnd-limited at the moment we finished sending that flight. (2) Only allowing cwnd to grow to twice the number of outstanding packets ("max_packets_out") in slow start. In congestion avoidance mode we now only allow cwnd to grow if it was fully utilized.

Channels in 2.4GHz band overlap, this means that if we send a probe request on channel 1 and then move to channel 2, we will hear the probe response on channel 2. In this case, the RSSI will be lower than if we had heard it on the channel on which it was sent (1 in this case). The firmware / low level driver can parse the channel in the DS IE or HT IE and compensate the RSSI so that it will still have a valid value even if we heard the frame on an adjacent channel. This can be done up to a certain offset. Add this offset as a configuration for the low level driver. A low level driver that can compensate the low RSSI in this case should assign the maximal offset for which the RSSI value is still valid.

This patch reworks the nf_tables API so set updates are included in the same batch that contains rule updates. This speeds up rule-set updates since we skip a dialog of four messages between kernel and user-space (two on each direction), from: 1) create the set and send netlink message to the kernel 2) process the response from the kernel that contains the allocated name. 3) add the set elements and send netlink message to the kernel. 4) process the response from the kernel (to check for errors). To: 1) add the set to the batch. 2) add the set elements to the batch. 3) add the rule that points to the set. 4) send batch to the kernel. This also introduces an internal set ID (NFTA_SET_ID) that is unique in the batch so set elements and rules can refer to new sets. Backward compatibility has been only retained in userspace, this means that new nft versions can talk to the kernel both in the new and the old fashion.
