wifi: cfg80211/mac80211: Add support to get radio index

2025-06-24T13:19:27+00:00

Currently, per-radio attributes are set on per-phy basis, i.e., all the radios present in a wiphy will take attributes values sent from user. But each radio in a wiphy can get different values from userspace based on its requirement. To extend support to set per-radio attributes, add support to get radio index from userspace. Add an NL attribute - NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RADIO_INDEX, to get user specified radio index for which attributes should be changed. Pass this to individual drivers, so that the drivers can use this radio index to change per-radio attributes when necessary. Currently, per-radio attributes identified are: NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_TX_POWER_LEVEL NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_RX NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RETRY_SHORT NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RETRY_LONG NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FRAG_THRESHOLD NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RTS_THRESHOLD NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_COVERAGE_CLASS NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_LIMIT NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_MEMORY_LIMIT NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_QUANTUM By default, the radio index is set to -1. This means the attribute should be treated as a global configuration. If the user has not specified any index, then the radio index passed to individual drivers would be -1. This would indicate that the attribute applies to all radios in that wiphy.

treewide: Switch/rename to timer_delete[_sync]()

2025-04-05T08:30:12+00:00

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree over and remove the historical wrapper inlines. Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

wifi: mac80211: handle ieee80211_radar_detected() for MLO

2024-09-06T11:01:05+00:00

Currently DFS works under assumption there could be only one channel context in the hardware. Hence, drivers just calls the function ieee80211_radar_detected() passing the hardware structure. However, with MLO, this obviously will not work since number of channel contexts will be more than one and hence drivers would need to pass the channel information as well on which the radar is detected. Also, when radar is detected in one of the links, other link's CAC should not be cancelled. Hence, in order to support DFS with MLO, do the following changes - * Add channel context conf pointer as an argument to the function ieee80211_radar_detected(). During MLO, drivers would have to pass on which channel context conf radar is detected. Otherwise, drivers could just pass NULL. * ieee80211_radar_detected() will iterate over all channel contexts present and * if channel context conf is passed, only mark that as radar detected * if NULL is passed, then mark all channel contexts as radar detected * Then as usual, schedule the radar detected work. * In the worker, go over all the contexts again and for all such context which is marked with radar detected, cancel the ongoing CAC by calling ieee80211_dfs_cac_cancel() and then notify cfg80211 via cfg80211_radar_event(). * To cancel the CAC, pass the channel context as well where radar is detected to ieee80211_dfs_cac_cancel(). This ensures that CAC is canceled only on the links using the provided context, leaving other links unaffected. This would also help in scenarios where there is split phy 5 GHz radio, which is capable of DFS channels in both lower and upper band. In this case, simultaneous radars can be detected.

wifi: mac80211: remove sta_mtx

2023-09-11T09:27:22+00:00

We now hold the wiphy mutex everywhere that we use or needed the sta_mtx, so we don't need this mutex any more. Remove it. Most of this change was done automatically with spatch. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

wifi: mac80211: move key tailroom work to wiphy work

mac80211: Prevent AP probing during suspend

2021-10-21T15:27:51+00:00

Submitting AP probe/null during suspend can cause unexpected disconnect on resume because of timeout waiting for ack status: wlan0: Failed to send nullfunc to AP 11:22:33:44:55:66 after 500ms, disconnecting This is especially the case when we enter suspend when a scan is ongoing, indeed, scan is cancelled from __ieee80211_suspend, leading to a corresponding (aborted) scan complete event, which in turn causes the submission of an immediate monitor null frame (restart_sta_timer). The corresponding packet or ack will not be processed before resuming, causing a timeout & disconnect on resume. Delay the AP probing when suspending/suspended.

cfg80211: avoid holding the RTNL when calling the driver

2021-01-26T10:55:50+00:00

Currently, _everything_ in cfg80211 holds the RTNL, and if you have a slow USB device (or a few) you can get some bad lock contention on that. Fix that by re-adding a mutex to each wiphy/rdev as we had at some point, so we have locking for the wireless_dev lists and all the other things in there, and also so that drivers still don't have to worry too much about it (they still won't get parallel calls for a single device). Then, we can restrict the RTNL to a few cases where we add or remove interfaces and really need the added protection. Some of the global list management still also uses the RTNL, since we need to have it anyway for netdev management, but we only hold the RTNL for very short periods of time here.
