2017-06-16networking: convert many more places to skb_put_zero()Johannes Berg1-3/+2

2016-12-13mac80211: multicast to unicast conversionMichael Braun1-0/+3
Add the ability for an AP (and associated VLANs) to perform multicast-to-unicast conversion for ARP, IPv4 and IPv6 frames (possibly within 802.1Q). If enabled, such frames are to be sent to each station separately, with the DA replaced by their own MAC address rather than the group address. Note that this may break certain expectations of the receiver, such as the ability to drop unicast IP packets received within multicast L2 frames, or the ability to not send ICMP destination unreachable messages for packets received in L2 multicast (which is required, but the receiver can't tell the difference if this new option is enabled.) This also doesn't implement the 802.11 DMS (directed multicast service).

2016-10-12mac80211: filter multicast data packets on AP / AP_VLANMichael Braun1-0/+11
This patch adds filtering for multicast data packets on AP_VLAN interfaces that have no authorized station connected and changes filtering on AP interfaces to not count stations assigned to AP_VLAN interfaces. This saves airtime and avoids waking up other stations currently authorized in this BSS. When using WPA, the packets dropped could not be decrypted by any station. The behaviour when there are no AP_VLAN interfaces is left unchanged. When there are AP_VLAN interfaces, this patch 1. adds filtering multicast data packets sent on AP_VLAN interfaces that have no authorized station connected. No filtering happens on 4addr AP_VLAN interfaces. 2. makes filtering of multicast data packets sent on AP interfaces depend on the number of authorized stations in this bss not assigned to an AP_VLAN interface. Therefore, a new num_mcast_sta counter is added for AP_VLAN interfaces. The existing one for AP interfaces is altered to not track stations assigned to an AP_VLAN interface. The new counter is exposed in debugfs.

2016-09-13mac80211: Re-structure aqm debugfs output and keep CoDel stats per txqToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-1/+36
Currently the 'aqm' stats in mac80211 only keeps overlimit drop stats, not CoDel stats. This moves the CoDel stats into the txqi structure to keep them per txq in order to show them in debugfs. In addition, the aqm debugfs output is restructured by splitting it up into three files: One global per phy, one per netdev and one per station, in the appropriate directories. The files are all called aqm, and are only created if the driver supports the wake_tx_queue op (rather than emitting an error on open as previously).

2013-10-28mac80211: implement SMPS for APEmmanuel Grumbach1-9/+16
When the driver requests to move to STATIC or DYNAMIC SMPS, we send an action frame to each associated station and reconfigure the channel context / driver. Of course, non-MIMO stations are ignored. The beacon isn't updated. The association response will include the original capabilities. Stations that associate while in non-OFF SMPS mode will get an action frame right after association to inform them about our current state. Note that we wait until the end of the EAPOL. Sending an action frame before the EAPOL is finished can be an issue for a few clients. Clients aren't likely to send EAPOL frames in MIMO anyway. When the SMPS configuration gets more permissive (e.g. STATIC -> OFF), we don't wake up stations that are asleep We remember that they don't know about the change and send the action frame when they wake up. When the SMPS configuration gets more restrictive (e.g. OFF -> STATIC), we set the TIM bit for every sleeping STA. uAPSD stations might send MIMO until they poll the action frame, but this is for a short period of time.

Using separate locks in cfg80211 and mac80211 has always caused issues, for example having to unlock in places in mac80211 to call cfg80211, which even needed a framework to make cfg80211 calls after some functions returned etc. Additionally, I suspect some issues people have reported with the cfg80211 state getting confused could be due to such issues, when cfg80211 is asking mac80211 to change state but mac80211 is in the process of telling cfg80211 that the state changed (in another way.)

2013-03-18mac80211: move sdata debugfs dir to vifStanislaw Gruszka1-11/+11
There is need create driver own per interface debugfs files. This is currently done by drv_{add,remove}_interface_debugfs() callbacks. But it is possible that after we remove interface from the driver (i.e. on suspend) we call drv_remove_interface_debugfs() function. Fixing this problem will require to add call drv_{add,remove}_interface_debugfs() anytime we create and remove interface in mac80211. So it's better to add debugfs dir dentry to vif structure to allow to create/remove custom debugfs driver files on drv_{add,remove}_interface().

2013-02-04mac80211: mesh power save basicsMarco Porsch1-0/+5
Add routines to - maintain a PS mode for each peer and a non-peer PS mode - indicate own PS mode in transmitted frames - track neighbor STAs power modes - buffer frames when neighbors are in PS mode - add TIM and Awake Window IE to beacons - release frames in Mesh Peer Service Periods Add local_pm to sta_info to represent the link-specific power mode at this station towards the remote station. When a peer link is established, use the default power mode stored in mesh config. Update the PS status if the peering status of a neighbor changes. Maintain a mesh power mode for non-peer mesh STAs. Set the non-peer power mode to active mode during peering. Authenticated mesh peering is currently not working when either node is configured to be in power save mode. Indicate the current power mode in transmitted frames. Use QoS Nulls to indicate mesh power mode transitions. For performance reasons, calls to the function setting the frame flags are placed in HWMP routing routines, as there the STA pointer is already available. Add peer_pm to sta_info to represent the peer's link-specific power mode towards the local station. Add nonpeer_pm to represent the peer's power mode towards all non-peer stations. Track power modes based on received frames. Add the ps_data structure to ieee80211_if_mesh (for TIM map, PS neighbor counter and group-addressed frame buffer). Set WLAN_STA_PS flag for STA in PS mode to use the unicast frame buffering routines in the tx path. Update num_sta_ps to buffer and release group-addressed frames after DTIM beacons. Announce the awake window duration in beacons if in light or deep sleep mode towards any peer or non-peer. Create a TIM IE similarly to AP mode and add it to mesh beacons. Parse received Awake Window IEs and check TIM IEs for buffered frames. Release frames towards peers in mesh Peer Service Periods. Use the corresponding trigger frames and monitor the MPSP status. Append a QoS Null as trigger frame if neccessary to properly end the MPSP. Currently, in HT channels MPSPs behave imperfectly and show large delay spikes and frame losses.

2012-10-30mac80211: handle TX power per virtual interfaceJohannes Berg1-0/+6
Even before channel contexts/multi-channel, having a single global TX power limit was already problematic, in particular if two managed interfaces connected to two APs with different power constraints. The channel context introduction completely broke this though and in fact I had disabled TX power configuration there for drivers using channel contexts. Change everything to track TX power per interface so that different user settings and different channel maxima are treated correctly. Also continue tracking the global TX power though for compatibility with applications that attempt to configure the wiphy's TX power globally. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-10-19mac80211: make client powersave independent of interface typeMarco Porsch1-3/+3
This patch prepares mac80211 for a later implementation of mesh or ad-hoc powersave clients. The structures related to powersave (buffer, TIM map, counters) are moved from the AP-specific interface structure to a generic structure that can be embedded into any interface type. The functions related to powersave are prepared to allow easy extension with different interface types. For example with: + } else if (sta->sdata->vif.type == NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT) { + ps = &sdata->u.mesh.ps; Some references to the AP's beacon structure are removed where they were obviously not used.

2011-12-15mac80211: count authorized stations per BSSJohannes Berg1-0/+2
Currently, each AP interface will send multicast traffic if any interface has a station entry even if that station entry is allocated only. With the new station state management we can easily fix it by adding a counter that counts each authorized station only and send multicast traffic only when the correct interface has at least one authorized station.
