mac80211: fix rx reordering with non explicit / psmp ack policy

2022-05-04T09:33:23+00:00

When the QoS ack policy was set to non explicit / psmp ack, frames are treated as not being part of a BA session, which causes extra latency on reordering. Fix this by only bypassing reordering for packets with no-ack policy Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220420105038.36443-1-nbd@nbd.name Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: fix forwarded mesh frames AC & queue selection

2022-02-16T14:27:33+00:00

There are two problems with the current code that have been highlighted with the AQL feature that is now enbaled by default. First problem is in ieee80211_rx_h_mesh_fwding(), ieee80211_select_queue_80211() is used on received packets to choose the sending AC queue of the forwarding packet although this function should only be called on TX packet (it uses ieee80211_tx_info). This ends with forwarded mesh packets been sent on unrelated random AC queue. To fix that, AC queue can directly be infered from skb->priority which has been extracted from QOS info (see ieee80211_parse_qos()). Second problem is the value of queue_mapping set on forwarded mesh frames via skb_set_queue_mapping() is not the AC of the packet but a hardware queue index. This may or may not work depending on AC to HW queue mapping which is driver specific. Both of these issues lead to improper AC selection while forwarding mesh packets but more importantly due to improper airtime accounting (which is done on a per STA, per AC basis) caused traffic stall with the introduction of AQL.

mac80211: fix EAPoL rekey fail in 802.3 rx path

2022-02-16T14:25:02+00:00

mac80211 set capability NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CONTROL_PORT_OVER_NL80211 to upper layer by default. That means we should pass EAPoL packets through nl80211 path only, and should not send the EAPoL skb to netdevice diretly. At the meanwhile, wpa_supplicant would not register sock to listen EAPoL skb on the netdevice. However, there is no control_port_protocol handler in mac80211 for 802.3 RX packets, mac80211 driver would pass up the EAPoL rekey frame to netdevice and wpa_supplicant would be never interactive with this kind of packets, if SUPPORTS_RX_DECAP_OFFLOAD is enabled. This causes STA always rekey fail if EAPoL frame go through 802.3 path. To avoid this problem, align the same process as 802.11 type to handle this frame before put it into network stack. This also addresses a potential security issue in 802.3 RX mode that was previously fixed in commit a8c4d76a8dd4 ("mac80211: do not accept/forward invalid EAPOL frames").

cfg80211/mac80211: assume CHECKSUM_COMPLETE includes SNAP

2022-02-04T15:23:19+00:00

There's currently only one driver that reports CHECKSUM_COMPLETE, that is iwlwifi. The current hardware there calculates checksum after the SNAP header, but only RFC 1042 (and some other cases, but replicating the exact hardware logic for corner cases in the driver seemed awkward.) Newer generations of hardware will checksum _including_ the SNAP, which makes things easier. To handle that, simply always assume the checksum _includes_ the SNAP header, which this patch does, requiring to first add it for older iwlwifi hardware, and then remove it again later on conversion. Alternatively, we could have: 1) Always assumed the checksum starts _after_ the SNAP header; the problem with this is that we'd have to replace the exact "what is the SNAP" check in iwlwifi that cfg80211 has. 2) Made it configurable with some flag, but that seemed like too much complexity.
