wifi: mac80211: keep A-MSDU data in sta and per-link

2022-09-06T08:17:08+00:00

The A-MSDU data needs to be stored per-link and aggregated into a single value for the station. Add a new struct ieee_80211_sta_aggregates in order to store this data and a new function ieee80211_sta_recalc_aggregates to update the current data for the STA. Note that in the non MLO case the pointer in ieee80211_sta will directly reference the data in deflink.agg, which means that recalculation may be skipped in that case.

wifi: mac80211: Support multi link in ieee80211_recalc_min_chandef()

2022-07-15T09:43:20+00:00

Recalculate min channel context for the given or all interface links, depending on the caller. For a station state change, we need to recalculate all of them since we don't know which link (or multiple) it might be on. Signed-off-by: Andrei Otcheretianski Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

wifi: mac80211: RCU-ify link/link_conf pointers

2022-07-15T09:43:14+00:00

Since links can be added and removed dynamically, we need to somehow protect the sdata->link[] and vif->link_conf[] array pointers from disappearing when accessing them without locks. RCU-ify the pointers to achieve this, which requires quite a bit of rework. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

wifi: mac80211: RCU-ify link STA pointers

2022-06-20T10:57:08+00:00

We need to be able to access these in a race-free way under traffic while adding/removing them, so RCU-ify the pointers. This requires passing a link_sta to a lot of functions so we don't have to do the RCU handling everywhere. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

wifi: mac80211: add link_id to vht.c code for MLO

2022-06-20T10:55:25+00:00

Update the code in vht.c and add the link_id parameter where necessary. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

wifi: mac80211: make channel context code MLO-aware

2022-06-20T10:55:15+00:00

Make the channel context code MLO aware, along with some functions that it uses, so that the chan.c file is now MLD-clean and no longer uses deflink/bss_conf/etc. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

wifi: mac80211: split bss_info_changed method

2022-06-20T10:55:09+00:00

Split the bss_info_changed method to vif_cfg_changed and link_info_changed, with the latter getting a link ID. Also change the 'changed' parameter to u64 already, we know we need that. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

wifi: mac80211: move some future per-link data to bss_conf

2022-06-20T10:55:01+00:00

To add MLD, reuse the bss_conf structure later for per-link information, so move some things into it that are per link. Most transformations were done with the following spatch: @@ expression sdata; identifier var = { chanctx_conf, mu_mimo_owner, csa_active, color_change_active, color_change_color }; @@ -sdata->vif.var +sdata->vif.bss_conf.var @@ struct ieee80211_vif *vif; identifier var = { chanctx_conf, mu_mimo_owner, csa_active, color_change_active, color_change_color }; @@ -vif->var +vif->bss_conf.var Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: prepare sta handling for MLO support

2022-04-11T14:42:03+00:00

Currently in mac80211 each STA object is represented using sta_info datastructure with the associated STA specific information and drivers access ieee80211_sta part of it. With MLO (Multi Link Operation) support being added in 802.11be standard, though the association is logically with a single Multi Link capable STA, at the physical level communication can happen via different advertised links (uniquely identified by Channel, operating class, BSSID) and hence the need to handle multiple link STA parameters within a composite sta_info object called the MLD STA. The different link STA part of MLD STA are identified using the link address which can be same or different as the MLD STA address and unique link id based on the link vif. To support extension of such a model, the sta_info datastructure is modified to hold multiple link STA objects with link specific params currently within sta_info moved to this new structure. Similarly this is done for ieee80211_sta as well which will be accessed within mac80211 as well as by drivers, hence trivial driver changes are expected to support this. For current non MLO supported drivers, only one link STA is present and link information is accessed via 'deflink' member. For MLO drivers, we still need to define the APIs etc. to get the correct link ID and access the correct part of the station info. Currently in mac80211, all link STA info are accessed directly via deflink. These will be updated to access via link pointers indexed by link id with MLO support patches, with link id being 0 for non MLO supported cases. Except for couple of macro related changes, below spatch takes care of updating mac80211 and driver code to access to the link STA info via deflink. @ieee80211_sta@ struct ieee80211_sta *s; struct sta_info *si; identifier var = {supp_rates, ht_cap, vht_cap, he_cap, he_6ghz_capa, eht_cap, rx_nss, bandwidth, txpwr}; @@ ( s-> - var + deflink.var | si->sta. - var + deflink.var ) @sta_info@ struct sta_info *si; identifier var = {gtk, pcpu_rx_stats, rx_stats, rx_stats_avg, status_stats, tx_stats, cur_max_bandwidth}; @@ ( si-> - var + deflink.var ) Signed-off-by: Sriram R Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/1649086883-13246-1-git-send-email-quic_srirrama@quicinc.com [remove MLO-drivers notes from commit message, not clear yet; run spatch] Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg
