* mac80211: don't check local mesh TTL on TXThomas Pedersen2013-06-031-6/+0
| | | | | | | | nl80211 has already verified the mesh TTL on setting the mesh config, so no need to check it again in mac80211. Signed-off-by: Thomas Pedersen <thomas@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* mac80211: always send multicast on CAB queueJohannes Berg2013-05-291-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the driver advertised support for a CAB queue, then we should put all multicast frames there, otherwise sending them can be racy with clients going to sleep while we TX a frame. To avoid this, always TX multicast frames on the multicast queue. It seems like even drivers not using the queue framework might want to do this which would mean also moving the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_SEND_AFTER_DTIM flag assignment, but it also seems that drivers behave differently here so that just moving it wouldn't be a good idea. It'd be better to modify those drivers to use the queue framework. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

| * mac80211: improve the rate control APIFelix Fietkau2013-04-221-108/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow rate control modules to pass a rate selection table to mac80211 and the driver. This allows drivers to fetch the most recent rate selection from the sta pointer for already buffered frames. This allows rate control to respond faster to sudden link changes and it is also a step towards adding minstrel_ht support to drivers like iwlwifi. When a driver sets IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_RC_TABLE, mac80211 will not fill info->control.rates with rates from the rate table (to preserve explicit overrides by the rate control module). The driver then explicitly calls ieee80211_get_tx_rates to merge overrides from info->control.rates with defaults from the sta rate table.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The rates[0] CTS and RTS flags are only set after rate control has been called, so minstrel cannot use them to for setting the number of retries.

| * mac80211: fix and optimize MCS mask handlingFelix Fietkau2013-04-161-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the code always copies the configured MCS mask (even if it is set to default), but only uses it if legacy rates were also masked out. Fix this by adding a flag that tracks whether the configured MCS mask is set to default or not. Optimize the code further by storing a pointer to the configured rate mask in txrc instead of using memcpy.

| * mac80211: always pick a basic rate to tx RTS/CTS for pre-HT ratesKarl Beldan2013-04-111-4/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the 1st rate control entry is a pre-HT rate we want to set rts_cts_rate_idx "as the fastest basic rate that is not faster than the data rate"(code comments). But in case some bss allowed rate indexes are lower than the lowest bss basic rate, if the rate control selects a rate among the formers for its 1st rate control entry, rts_cts_rate_idx remains 0 and is not a basic rate index. This commit sets rts_cts_rate_idx to the lowest bss basic rate index in this situation. Note that the code assumes that lowest indexes == lowest bitrates.

* mac80211: fix auth/assoc timeout handlingJohannes Berg2013-02-151-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In my commit 1672c0e31917f49d31d30d79067103432bc20cc7 ("mac80211: start auth/assoc timeout on frame status") I broke auth/assoc timeout handling: in case we wait for the TX status, it now leaves the timeout field set to 0, which is a valid time and can compare as being before now ("jiffies"). Thus, if the work struct runs for some other reason, the auth/assoc is treated as having timed out. Fix this by introducing a separate "timeout_started" variable that tracks whether the timeout has started and is checked before timing out. Additionally, for proper TX status handling the change requires that the skb->dev pointer is set up for all the frames, so set it up for all frames in mac80211.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | When sending a broadcast while at least on of the connected stations is sleeping, it gets queued and send after a DTIM beacon is sent. If the packet was to be sent on a vlan interface, the vif used for dequeing from the per-bss queue does not hold the per-vlan sdata. The correct sdata is required to use the correct per-vlan broadcast/multicast key. This patch fixes this by restoring the per-vlan sdata using the skb->dev entry.

* mac80211: Fix tx queue handling during scansSeth Forshee2013-02-111-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Scans currently work by stopping the netdev tx queues but leaving the mac80211 queues active. This stops the flow of incoming packets while still allowing mac80211 to transmit nullfunc and probe request frames to facilitate scanning. However, the driver may try to wake the mac80211 queues while in this state, which will also wake the netdev queues. To prevent this, add a new queue stop reason, IEEE80211_QUEUE_STOP_REASON_OFFCHANNEL, to be used when stopping the tx queues for off-channel operation. This prevents the netdev queues from waking when a driver wakes the mac80211 queues. This also stops all frames from being transmitted, even those meant to be sent off-channel. Add a new tx control flag, IEEE80211_TX_CTL_OFFCHAN_TX_OK, which allows frames to be transmitted when the queues are stopped only for the off-channel stop reason. Update all locations transmitting off-channel frames to use this flag. Signed-off-by: Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we had a connection for WoWLAN and after resume it needed to be disconnected, the previous commit enabled sending a deauth frame to the AP. This frame would not go through on MFP-enabled networks as the key for it is marked tainted before the frame is transmitted. Allow a tainted key to be used for deauth frames. Worst case, we'll use a wrong key because the PTK was rekeyed while suspended, but more likely the PTK is still fine and the taint flag really only applies to the GTK(s).

* | mac80211: make client powersave independent of interface typeMarco Porsch2012-10-191-42/+58
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. The patch compiles without warning and has been briefly tested as AP interface with one client in PS mode.

* | mac80211: remove some unused codeJohannes Berg2012-10-181-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are a number of unused variables that gcc pointed out (when building with W=1) as well as some conditions that can never be true due to the datatypes used: unsigned values can't be less than zero. Remove this code. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* | mac80211: use channel contextsJohannes Berg2012-10-171-68/+115
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of operating on a single channel only, use the new channel context infrastructure in all mac80211 code. This enables drivers that want to use the new channel context infrastructure to use multiple channels, while nothing should change for all the other drivers that don't support it. Right now this disables both TX power settings and spatial multiplexing powersave. Both need to be re-enabled on a channel context basis. Additionally, when channel contexts are used drop the connection when channel switch is received rather than trying to handle it. This will have to be improved later.

* mac80211: add key flag for management keysJohannes Berg2012-09-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Mark keys that might be used to receive management frames so drivers can fall back on software crypto for them if they don't support hardware offload. As the new flag is only set correctly for RX keys and the existing IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_SW_MGMT flag can only affect TX, also rename the latter to IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_SW_MGMT_TX.

Instead leave the original destination address as the mesh DA. If the nexthop address is not in the mpath table it will be resolved. If that fails, the frame will be forwarded to known mesh gates.
