When roaming / suspending, it makes no sense to wait until the transmit queues of the device are empty. In extreme condition they can be starved (VO saturating the air), but even in regular cases, it is pointless to delay the roaming because the low level driver is trying to send packets to an AP which is far away. We'd rather drop these packets and let TCP retransmit if needed. This will allow to speed up the roaming. For suspend, the explanation is even more trivial.

Instead of keeping track of all those special cases where VLAN interfaces have no bss_conf.chandef, just make sure they have the same as the AP interface they belong to. Among others, this fixes a crash getting a VLAN's channel from userspace since a NULL channel is returned as a good result (return value 0) for VLANs since the commit below.

This patch adds 802.11p OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode support. When communicating in OCB mode a mandatory wildcard BSSID (48 '1' bits) is used. The EDCA parameters handling function was changed to support 802.11p specific values. The insertion of a newly discovered STAs is done in the similar way as in the IBSS mode -- through the deferred insertion. The OCB mode uses a periodic 'housekeeping task' for expiration of disconnected STAs (in the similar manner as in the MESH mode). New Kconfig option for verbose OCB debugging outputs is added.

This patch adds new iface type (NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB) representing the OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode. When establishing a connection to the network a cfg80211_join_ocb function is called (particular nl80211_command is added as well). A mandatory parameters during the ocb_join operation are 'center frequency' and 'channel width (5/10 MHz)'. Changes done in mac80211 are minimal possible required to avoid many warnings (warning: enumeration value 'NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB' not handled in switch) during compilation. Full functionality (where needed) is added in the following patch. Signed-off-by: NRostislav Lisovy <rostislav.lisovy@fel.cvut.cz> Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

When an interface is deleted, an ongoing hardware scan is canceled and the driver must abort the scan, at the very least reporting completion while the interface is removed. However, if it scheduled the work that might only run after everything is said and done, which leads to cfg80211 warning that the scan isn't reported as finished yet; this is no fault of the driver, it already did, but mac80211 hasn't processed it. To fix this situation, flush the delayed work when the interface being removed is the one that was executing the scan.

When starting an offloaded BA session it is unknown what starting sequence number should be used. Using last_seq worked in most cases except after hw restart. When hw restart is requested last_seq is (rightfully so) kept unmodified. This ended up with BA sessions being restarted with an aribtrary BA window values resulting in dropped frames until sequence numbers caught up. Instead of last_seq pick seqno of a first Rxed frame of a given BA session. This fixes stalled traffic after hw restart with offloaded BA sessions (currently only ath10k).

It was possible for tx queues to be stuck stopped if AP CSA finalization failed. In that case neither stop_ap nor do_stop woke the queues up. This means it was impossible to perform tx at all until driver was reloaded or a successful CSA was performed later. It was possible to solve this in a simpler manner however this is more robust and future proof (having multi-vif CSA in mind). New sdata->csa_block_tx is introduced to keep track of which interfaces requested tx to be blocked for CSA. This is required because mac80211 stops all tx queues for that purpose. This means queues must be awoken only when last tx-blocking CSA interface is finished. It is still possible to have tx queues stopped after CSA failure but as soon as offending interfaces are stopped from userspace (stop_ap or ifdown) tx queues are woken up properly.

It was impossible to change chanctx of master AP for AP VLANs because the copy function requires RTNL which can't be simply taken in mac80211 code due to possible deadlocks. This is required for future chanctx reservation that re-bind vifs to new chanctx. This requires safe AP VLAN iteration without RTNL.

Add a new argument for ndo_select_queue() callback that passes a fallback handler. This gets invoked through netdev_pick_tx(); fallback handler is currently __netdev_pick_tx() as most drivers invoke this function within their customized implementation in case for skbs that don't need any special handling. This fallback handler can then be replaced on other call-sites with different queue selection methods (e.g. in packet sockets, pktgen etc). This also has the nice side-effect that __netdev_pick_tx() is then only invoked from netdev_pick_tx() and export of that function to modules can be undone. Suggested-by: NDavid S.

Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The will cause several issues: - NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or control path. - dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device watchdog. - dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash when tso is disabled for lower device. Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2 forwarding transmission. With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission. In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it provides a necessary synchronization method.

The scan code creates an iflist_mtx -> mtx locking dependency, and a few other places, notably radar detection, were creating the opposite dependency, causing lockdep to complain. As scan and radar detection are mutually exclusive, the deadlock can't really happen in practice, but it's still bad form. A similar issue exists in the monitor mode code, but this is only used by channel-context drivers right now and those have to have hardware scan, so that also can't happen. Still, fix these issues by making some of the channel context code require the mtx to be held rather than acquiring it, thus allowing the monitor/radar callers to keep the iflist_mtx->mtx lock ordering. While at it, also fix access to the local->scanning variable in the radar code, and document that radar_detect_enabled is now properly protected by the mtx. All this would now introduce an ABBA deadlock between the DFS work cancelling and local->mtx, so change the locking there a bit to not need to use cancel_delayed_work_sync() but be able to just use cancel_delayed_work(). The work is also safely stopped/removed when the interface is stopped, so no extra changes are needed.

The radar detection code changed a few times, and due to the changes some iflist_mtx locking stayed in that isn't actually necessary - remove it. One version of the code needed it because an AP interface's VLAN list was changed to use this, but then we moved the list handling outside of the chanctx handling and thus the locking was no longer needed.

When the AP interface is stopped, free all AP and VLAN keys at once to only require synchronize_net() once. Since that does synchronize_net(), also move two such calls into the function (using the new force_synchronize parameter) to avoid doing it twice.

If we can assume that stations are never referenced by the driver after sta_state returns (and this is true since the previous iwlmvm patch and for all other drivers) then we don't need to delay station destruction, and don't need to play tricks with rcu_barrier() etc. This should speed up some scenarios like hostapd shutdown.
