mac80211: fix kernel-doc markups

2020-10-30T09:06:09+00:00

Some identifiers have different names between their prototypes and the kernel-doc markup. Others need to be fixed, as kernel-doc markups should use this format: identifier - description In the specific case of __sta_info_flush(), add a documentation for sta_info_flush(), as this one is the one used outside sta_info.c.

mac80211: copy configured beacon tx rate to driver

2020-10-08T10:26:35+00:00

The user is allowed to change beacon tx rate (HT/VHT/HE) from hostapd. This information needs to be passed to the driver when the rate control is offloaded to the firmware. The driver capability of allowing beacon rate is already validated in cfg80211, so simply passing the rate information to the driver is enough.

mac80211: Support not iterating over not-sdata-in-driver ifaces

2020-09-28T13:05:53+00:00

Allow drivers to request that interface-iterator does NOT iterate over interfaces that are not sdata-in-driver. This will allow us to fix crashes in ath10k (and possibly other drivers). To summarize Johannes' explanation: Consider add interface wlan0 add interface wlan1 iterate active interfaces -> wlan0 wlan1 add interface wlan2 iterate active interfaces -> wlan0 wlan1 wlan2 If you apply this scenario to a restart, which ought to be functionally equivalent to the normal startup, just compressed in time, you're basically saying that today you get add interface wlan0 add interface wlan1 iterate active interfaces -> wlan0 wlan1 wlan2 << problem here add interface wlan2 iterate active interfaces -> wlan0 wlan1 wlan2 which yeah, totally seems wrong. But fixing that to be add interface wlan0 add interface wlan1 iterate active interfaces -> add interface wlan2 iterate active interfaces -> (or maybe -> wlan0 wlan1 wlan2 if the reconfig already completed) This is also at least somewhat wrong, but better to not iterate over something that exists in the driver than iterate over something that does not. Originally the first issue was causing crashes in testing with lots of station vdevs on an ath10k radio, combined with firmware crashing. I ran with a similar patch for years with no obvious bad results, including significant testing with ath9k and ath10k.

mac80211: support S1G association

2020-09-28T12:09:07+00:00

The changes required for associating in S1G are: - apply S1G BSS channel info before assoc - mark all S1G STAs as QoS STAs - include and parse AID request element - handle new Association Response format - don't fail assoc if supported rates element is missing Signed-off-by: Thomas Pedersen Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200922022818.15855-15-thomas@adapt-ip.com [pass skb to ieee80211_add_aid_request_ie(), remove unused variable 'bss'] Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: handle S1G low rates

2020-09-28T11:56:37+00:00

S1G doesn't have legacy (sband->bitrates) rates, only MCS. For now, just send a frame at MCS 0 if a low rate is requested. Note we also redefine (since we're out of TX flags) TX_RC_VHT_MCS as TX_RC_S1G_MCS to indicate an S1G MCS. This is probably OK as VHT MCS is not valid on S1G band and vice versa.

mac80211: Unsolicited broadcast probe response support

2020-09-18T12:06:20+00:00

This patch adds mac80211 support to configure unsolicited broadcast probe response transmission for in-band discovery in 6GHz. Changes include functions to store and retrieve probe response template, and packet interval (0 - 20 TUs). Setting interval to 0 disables the unsolicited broadcast probe response transmission.
