* cfg80211: remove enum ieee80211_bandJohannes Berg2016-04-121-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | This enum is already perfectly aliased to enum nl80211_band, and the only reason for it is that we get IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS out of it. There's no really good reason to not declare the number of bands in nl80211 though, so do that and remove the cfg80211 one. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* mac80211: add fast-rx pathJohannes Berg2016-04-061-3/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The regular RX path has a lot of code, but with a few assumptions on the hardware it's possible to reduce the amount of code significantly. Currently the assumptions on the driver are the following: * hardware/driver reordering buffer (if supporting aggregation) * hardware/driver decryption & PN checking (if using encryption) * hardware/driver did de-duplication * hardware/driver did A-MSDU deaggregation * AP_LINK_PS is used (in AP mode) * no client powersave handling in mac80211 (in client mode) of which some are actually checked per packet: * de-duplication * PN checking * decryption and additionally packets must * not be A-MSDU (have been deaggregated by driver/device) * be data packets * not be fragmented * be unicast * have RFC 1042 header Additionally dynamically we assume: * no encryption or CCMP/GCMP, TKIP/WEP/other not allowed * station must be authorized * 4-addr format not enabled Some data needed for the RX path is cached in a new per-station "fast_rx" structure, so that we only need to look at this and the packet, no other memory when processing packets on the fast RX path. After doing the above per-packet checks, the data path collapses down to a pretty simple conversion function taking advantage of the data cached in the small fast_rx struct. This should speed up the RX processing, and will make it easier to reason about parallelizing RX (for which statistics will need to be per-CPU still.)

* mac80211: mesh: move path tables into if_meshBob Copeland2016-04-051-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The mesh path and mesh gate hashtables are global, containing all of the mpaths for every mesh interface, but the paths are all tied logically to a single interface. The common case is just a single mesh interface, so optimize for that by moving the global hashtable into the per-interface struct. Doing so allows us to drop sdata pointer comparisons inside the lookups and also saves a few bytes of BSS and data.

* mac80211: move TKIP TX IVs to public part of key structEliad Peller2016-02-241-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some drivers/devices might want to set the IVs by themselves (and still let mac80211 generate MMIC). Specifically, this is needed when the device does offloading at certain times, and the driver has to make sure that the IVs of new tx frames (from the host) are synchronized with IVs that were potentially used during the offloading. Similarly to CCMP, move the TX IVs of TKIP keys to the public part of the key struct, and export a function to add the IV right into the crypto header. The public tx_pn field is defined as atomic64, so define TKIP_PN_TO_IV16/32 helper macros to convert it to iv16/32 when needed. Since the iv32 used for the p1k cache is taken directly from the frame, we can safely remove iv16/32 from being protected by tkip.txlock.

* mac80211: limit the A-MSDU Tx based on peer's capabilitiesEmmanuel Grumbach2016-02-241-0/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In VHT, the specification allows to limit the number of MSDUs in an A-MSDU in the Extended Capabilities IE. There is also a limitation on the byte size in the VHT IE. In HT, the only limitation is on the byte size. Parse the capabilities from the peer and make them available to the driver. In HT, there is another limitation when a BA agreement is active: the byte size can't be greater than 4095. This is not enforced here.

* | cfg80211: handle add_station auth/assoc flag quirksJohannes Berg2015-12-041-10/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a new station is added to AP/GO interfaces the default behaviour is for it to be added authenticated and associated, due to backwards compatibility. To prevent that, the driver must be able to do that (setting the NL80211_FEATURE_FULL_AP_CLIENT_STATE feature flag) and userspace must set the flag mask to auth|assoc and clear the set. Handle this quirk in the API entirely in nl80211, and always push the full flags to the drivers. NL80211_FEATURE_FULL_AP_CLIENT_STATE is still required for userspace to be allowed to set the mask including those bits, but after checking that add both flags to the mask and set in case userspace didn't set them otherwise. This obsoletes the mac80211 code handling this difference, no other driver is currently using these flags. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

* mac80211: fix off-channel mgmt-tx uninitialized variable usageJohannes Berg2015-12-021-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the last change here, I neglected to update the cookie in one code path: when a mgmt-tx has no real cookie sent to userspace as it doesn't wait for a response, but is off-channel. The original code used the SKB pointer as the cookie and always assigned the cookie to the TX SKB in ieee80211_start_roc_work(), but my change turned this around and made the code rely on a valid cookie being passed in. Unfortunately, the off-channel no-wait TX path wasn't assigning one at all, resulting in an uninitialized stack value being used. This wasn't handed back to userspace as a cookie (since in the no-wait case there isn't a cookie), but it was tested for non-zero to distinguish between mgmt-tx and off-channel. Fix this by assigning a dummy non-zero cookie unconditionally, and get rid of a misleading comment and some dead code while at it. I'll clean up the ACK SKB handling separately later.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IEEE802.11-2012 specification is vague regarding SMPS operation during TDLS. It does not define a clear way to transition between SMPS states. To avoid interop issues, set SMPS to off when TDLS peers are connected. Accomplish this by extending the definition of the AUTOMATIC state. If the driver forces a state other than OFF, disconnect all TDLS peers. While at it, avoid changing the SMPS state of the peer STA. We have no way to control it, so try and behave correctly towards it. Move the TDLS peer-teardown function to where the rest of the TDLS code resides.

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For drivers supporting TSO or similar features, but that still have PN assignment in software, there's a need to have some memory to store the current PN value. As mac80211 already stores this and it's somewhat complicated to add a per-driver area to the key struct (due to the dynamic sizing thereof) it makes sense to just move the TX PN to the keyconf, i.e. the public part of the key struct. As TKIP is more complicated and we won't able to offload it in this way right now (fast-xmit is skipped for TKIP unless the HW does it all, and our hardware needs MMIC calculation in software) I've not moved that for now - it's possible but requires exposing a lot of the internal TKIP state. As an bonus side effect, we can remove a lot of code by assuming the keyseq struct has a certain layout - with BUILD_BUG_ON to verify it. This might also improve performance, since now TX and RX no longer share a cacheline.

After that Tx directed at the station should use 4addr header. However fast-xmit wasn't recalculated and 3addr header remained to be used. This in turn caused the connected 4addr stations to drop packets coming from the AP until some other event would cause fast-xmit to recalculate for that station (which could never come).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For ciphers not supported by mac80211, the function currently doesn't return any PN data. Fix this by extending the driver's get_key_seq() a little more to allow moving arbitrary PN data. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* | mac80211: extend get_tkip_seq to all keysJohannes Berg2015-05-061-32/+59
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extend the function to read the TKIP IV32/IV16 to read the IV/PN for all ciphers in order to allow drivers with full hardware crypto to properly support this. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* | mac80211: force off channel transmission for public action framesMatti Gottlieb2015-04-241-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently while associated to an AP and sending a (public) action frame to a different AP on the same channel, the action frame will be sent like a regular tx frame without going off channel. When power save is enabled this can cause problems, since the device can go into power save and miss the response to the action frame that is sent by the other AP. Force off-channel transmission to avoid this issue in case - HW offchannel is used, - the user didn't forbid transmitting frames off channel - the frame is not sent to the AP that we are associated with (if it is we assume the response would be bufferable) Signed-off-by: Matti Gottlieb <matti.gottlieb@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> [reword commit message a bit] Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* | mac80211: add TX fastpathJohannes Berg2015-04-221-1/+8
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | In order to speed up mac80211's TX path, add the "fast-xmit" cache that will cache the data frame 802.11 header and other data to be able to build the frame more quickly. This cache is rebuilt when external triggers imply changes, but a lot of the checks done per packet today are simplified away to the check for the cache. There's also a more detailed description in the code. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

| * mac80211: set QoS capability before changing station stateJohannes Berg2015-03-301-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the upcoming fast-xmit patch, changing station state will build a header cache based on the station's capabilities, and as the QoS capability (sta.wme) impacts the header, it needs to be set before. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
| * mac80211: make sta.wme indicate whether QoS is usedJohannes Berg2015-03-301-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Indicating just the peer's capability is fairly pointless if the local device doesn't support it. Make the variable track both combined, and remove the 'local support' check in the TX path. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
| * cfg80211: pass name_assign_type to rdev_add_virtual_intf()Tom Gundersen2015-03-301-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This will expose in /sys whether the ifname of a device is set by userspace or generated by the kernel. The latter kind (wlanX, etc) is not deterministic, so userspace needs to rename these devices to names that are guaranteed to stay the same between reboots. The former, however should never be renamed, so userspace needs to be able to reliably tell the difference. Similar functionality was introduced for the rtnetlink core in commit 5517750f058e ("net: rtnetlink - make create_link take name_assign_type") Signed-off-by: Tom Gundersen <teg@jklm.no> Cc: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com> Cc: Brett Rudley <brudley@broadcom.com> Cc: Arend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com> Cc: Franky (Zhenhui) Lin <frankyl@broadcom.com> Cc: Hante Meuleman <meuleman@broadcom.com> Cc: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> [reformat changelog to fit 72 cols] Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
