wifi: mac80211: introduce a feature flag for quiet in CSA When doing CSA in multi-link, there really isn't a need to stop transmissions entirely. Add a feature flag for drivers to indicate they can handle quiet in CSA (be it by parsing themselves, or by implementing drv_pre_channel_switch()), to make that possible. Also clean up the csa_block_tx handling: it clearly cannot handle multi-link due to the way queues are stopped, move it to the sdata. Drivers should be doing it themselves for working properly during CSA in MLO anyway. Also rename it to indicate that it reflects TX was blocked at mac80211.

wifi: mac80211: optionally implement MLO multicast TX For drivers using software encryption for multicast TX, such as mac80211_hwsim, mac80211 needs to duplicate the multicast frames on each link, if MLO is enabled. Do this, but don't just make it dependent on the key but provide a separate flag for drivers to opt out of this. This is not very efficient, I expect that drivers will do it in firmware/hardware or at least with DMA engine assistence, so this is mostly for hwsim. To make this work, also implement the SNS11 sequence number space that an AP MLD shall have, and modify the API to the __ieee80211_subif_start_xmit() function to always require the link ID bits to be set.

mac80211: Switch to a virtual time-based airtime scheduler This switches the airtime scheduler in mac80211 to use a virtual time-based scheduler instead of the round-robin scheduler used before. This has a couple of advantages: - No need to sync up the round-robin scheduler in firmware/hardware with the round-robin airtime scheduler. - If several stations are eligible for transmission we can schedule both of them; no need to hard-block the scheduling rotation until the head of the queue has used up its quantum. - The check of whether a station is eligible for transmission becomes simpler (in ieee80211_txq_may_transmit()). The drawback is that scheduling becomes slightly more expensive, as we need to maintain an rbtree of TXQs sorted by virtual time. This means that ieee80211_register_airtime() becomes O(logN) in the number of currently scheduled TXQs because it can change the order of the scheduled stations. We mitigate this overhead by only resorting when a station changes position in the tree, and hopefully N rarely grows too big (it's only TXQs currently backlogged, not all associated stations), so it shouldn't be too big of an issue. To prevent divisions in the fast path, we maintain both station sums and pre-computed reciprocals of the sums. This turns the fast-path operation into a multiplication, with divisions only happening as the number of active stations change (to re-compute the current sum of all active station weights). To prevent this re-computation of the reciprocal from happening too frequently, we use a time-based notion of station activity, instead of updating the weight every time a station gets scheduled or de-scheduled. As queues can oscillate between empty and occupied quite frequently, this can significantly cut down on the number of re-computations. It also has the added benefit of making the station airtime calculation independent on whether the queue happened to have drained at the time an airtime value was accounted.

Packets going to the monitor interface(s) would be in 802.11 format and thus not have the RX_FLAG_8023 set, and 802.11 format monitoring frames should have RX_FLAG_ONLY_MONITOR set. Drivers doing such can enable the SUPPORTS_CONC_MON_RX_DECAP to allow using ethernet decap offload while a monitor interface is active, currently RX decapsulation offload gets disabled when a monitor interface is added.

mac80211: rework tx encapsulation offload API The current API (which lets the driver turn on/off per vif directly) has a number of limitations: - it does not deal with AP_VLAN - conditions for enabling (no tkip, no monitor) are only checked at add_interface time - no way to indicate 4-addr support In order to address this, store offload flags in struct ieee80211_vif (easy to extend for decap offload later). mac80211 initially sets the enable flag, but gives the driver a chance to modify it before its settings are applied. In addition to the .add_interface op, a .update_vif_offload op is introduced, which can be used for runtime changes. If a driver can't disable encap offload at runtime, or if it has some extra limitations, it can simply override the flags within those ops. Support for encap offload with 4-address mode interfaces can be enabled by setting a flag from .add_interface or .update_vif_offload.

mac80211: Implement Airtime-based Queue Limit (AQL) In order for the Fq_CoDel algorithm integrated in mac80211 layer to operate effectively to control excessive queueing latency, the CoDel algorithm requires an accurate measure of how long packets stays in the queue, AKA sojourn time. The sojourn time measured at the mac80211 layer doesn't include queueing latency in the lower layer (firmware/hardware) and CoDel expects lower layer to have a short queue. However, most 802.11ac chipsets offload tasks such TX aggregation to firmware or hardware, thus have a deep lower layer queue. Without a mechanism to control the lower layer queue size, packets only stay in mac80211 layer transiently before being sent to firmware queue. As a result, the sojourn time measured by CoDel in the mac80211 layer is almost always lower than the CoDel latency target, hence CoDel does little to control the latency, even when the lower layer queue causes excessive latency. The Byte Queue Limits (BQL) mechanism is commonly used to address the similar issue with wired network interface. However, this method cannot be applied directly to the wireless network interface. "Bytes" is not a suitable measure of queue depth in the wireless network, as the data rate can vary dramatically from station to station in the same network, from a few Mbps to over Gbps. This patch implements an Airtime-based Queue Limit (AQL) to make CoDel work effectively with wireless drivers that utilized firmware/hardware offloading. AQL allows each txq to release just enough packets to the lower layer to form 1-2 large aggregations to keep hardware fully utilized and retains the rest of the frames in mac80211 layer to be controlled by the CoDel algorithm.

mac80211: debugfs option to force TX status frames At Technical University of Munich we use MAC 802.11 TX status frames to perform several measurements in MAC 802.11 setups. With ath based drivers this was possible until commit d94a461d7a7df6 ("ath9k: use ieee80211_tx_status_noskb where possible") as the driver ignored the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS flag and always delivered tx_status frames. Since that commit, this behavior was changed and the driver now adheres to IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS. Due to performance reasons, IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS is not set for data frames from interfaces in managed mode. Hence, frames that are sent from a managed mode interface do never deliver tx_status frames. This remains true even if a monitor mode interface (the measurement interface) is added to the same ieee80211 physical device. Thus, there is no possibility for receiving tx_status frames for frames sent on an interface in managed mode, if the driver adheres to IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS. In order to force delivery of tx_status frames for research and debugging purposes, implement a debugfs option force_tx_status for ieee80211 physical devices. When this option is set for a physical device, IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS is enabled in all packets sent from that device. This option can be set via /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/<dev>/force_tx_status. The default is disabled.

mac80211: Add airtime accounting and scheduling to TXQs This adds airtime accounting and scheduling to the mac80211 TXQ scheduler. A new callback, ieee80211_sta_register_airtime(), is added that drivers can call to report airtime usage for stations. When airtime information is present, mac80211 will schedule TXQs (through ieee80211_next_txq()) in a way that enforces airtime fairness between active stations. This scheduling works the same way as the ath9k in-driver airtime fairness scheduling. If no airtime usage is reported by the driver, the scheduler will default to round-robin scheduling. For drivers that don't control TXQ scheduling in software, a new API function, ieee80211_txq_may_transmit(), is added which the driver can use to check if the TXQ is eligible for transmission, or should be throttled to enforce fairness. Calls to this function must also be enclosed in ieee80211_txq_schedule_{start,end}() calls to ensure proper locking. The API ieee80211_txq_may_transmit() also ensures that TXQ list will be aligned aginst driver's own round-robin scheduler list. i.e it rotates the TXQ list till it makes the requested node becomes the first entry in TXQ list. Thus both the TXQ list and driver's list are in sync.

Despite the claim in the commit log "Change all the drivers to *not* allow QoS NDP for now, even though it looks like most of them should be OK with that", this commit enables QoS NDP in response to beacons (see change to mlme.c:ieee80211_send_nullfunc), causing ath9k_htc to lose IP connectivity. See: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10241109/ https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=891060 Introduce a hardware flag to allow such buggy drivers to override the correct default behaviour of mac80211 of sending QoS NDP packets.

mac80211: Call mgd_prep_tx before transmitting deauthentication In multi channel scenarios, when disassociating from the AP before a beacon was heard from the AP, it is not guaranteed that the virtual interface is granted air time for the transmission of the deauthentication frame. This in turn can lead to various issues as the AP might never get the deauthentication frame. To mitigate such possible issues, add a HW flag indicating that the driver requires mac80211 to call the mgd_prep_tx() driver callback to make sure that the virtual interface is granted immediate airtime to be able to transmit the frame, in case that no beacon was heard from the AP.

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).

net/mac80211/debugfs.c: prevent build failure with CONFIG_UBSAN=y With upcoming CONFIG_UBSAN the following BUILD_BUG_ON in net/mac80211/debugfs.c starts to trigger: BUILD_BUG_ON(hw_flag_names[NUM_IEEE80211_HW_FLAGS] != (void *)0x1); It seems, that compiler instrumentation causes some code deoptimizations. Because of that GCC is not being able to resolve condition in BUILD_BUG_ON() at compile time. We could make size of hw_flag_names array unspecified and replace the condition in BUILD_BUG_ON() with following: ARRAY_SIZE(hw_flag_names) != NUM_IEEE80211_HW_FLAGS That will have the same effect as before (adding new flag without updating array will trigger build failure) except it doesn't fail with CONFIG_UBSAN.

mac80211: Copy tx'ed beacons to monitor mode When debugging wireless powersave issues on the AP side it's quite helpful to see our own beacons that are transmitted by the hardware/driver. However, this is not that easy since beacons don't pass through the regular TX queues. Preferably drivers would call ieee80211_tx_status also for tx'ed beacons but that's not always possible. Hence, just send a copy of each beacon generated by ieee80211_beacon_get_tim to monitor devices when they are getting fetched by the driver. Also add a HW flag IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_TX_STATUS that can be used by drivers to indicate that they report TX status for beacons.

mac80211: inform the driver about update of dtim_period Currently, when the driver requires the DTIM period, mac80211 will wait to hear a beacon before association. This behavior is suboptimal since some drivers may be able to deal with knowing the DTIM period after the association, if they get it at all. To address this, notify the drivers with bss_info_changed with the new BSS_CHANGED_DTIM_PERIOD flag when the DTIM becomes known. This might be when changing to associated, or later when the entire association was done with only probe response information. Rename the hardware flag for the current behaviour to IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_BEFORE_ASSOC to more accurately reflect its behaviour. IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_PERIOD is no longer accurate as all drivers get the DTIM period now, just not before association.

mac80211: redesign scan RX Scan receive is rather inefficient when there are multiple virtual interfaces. We iterate all of the virtual interfaces and then notify cfg80211 about each beacon many times. Redesign scan RX to happen before everything else. Then we can also get rid of IEEE80211_RX_IN_SCAN since we don't have to accept frames into the RX handlers for scanning or scheduled scanning any more. Overall, this simplifies the code.

simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open() Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when they want to support a custom read/write function op. This leads to a proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire tree. Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we can replace all the users of this function with simple_open(). This replacement was done with the following semantic patch: <smpl> @ open @ identifier open_f != simple_open; identifier i, f; @@ -int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) -{ ( -if (i->i_private) -f->private_data = i->i_private; | -f->private_data = i->i_private; ) -return 0; -} @ has_open depends on open @ identifier fops; identifier open.open_f; @@ struct file_operations fops = { ... -.open = open_f, +.open = simple_open, ... }; </smpl> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

llseek: automatically add .llseek fop All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a .llseek pointer. The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek. New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code relies on calling seek on the device file. The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle. Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window. Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic patch that does all this. ===== begin semantic patch ===== // This adds an llseek= method to all file operations, // as a preparation for making no_llseek the default. // // The rules are // - use no_llseek explicitly if we do nonseekable_open // - use seq_lseek for sequential files // - use default_llseek if we know we access f_pos // - use noop_llseek if we know we don't access f_pos, // but we still want to allow users to call lseek // @ open1 exists @ identifier nested_open; @@ nested_open(...) { <+... nonseekable_open(...) ...+> } @ open exists@ identifier open_f; identifier i, f; identifier open1.nested_open; @@ int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) { <+...

net/wireless: use generic_file_llseek in debugfs The default llseek operation is changing from default_llseek to no_llseek, so all code relying on the current behaviour needs to make that explicit. The wireless driver infrastructure and some of the drivers make use of generated debugfs files, so they cannot be converted by our script that automatically determines the right operation. All these files use debugfs and they typically rely on simple_read_from_buffer, so the best llseek operation here is generic_file_llseek. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: "John W.

mac80211: Read the TSF via debugfs This patch adds an low-level driver independent entry to read the TSF value into the debugfs of mac80211. This makes debugging the IBSS handling of wifi drivers easier. Signed-off-by: Alina Friedrichsen <x-alina@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

mac80211: remove unused variable in ieee80211_local (dot11WEPUndecryptableCount). This patch removes an unused declaration of dot11WEPUndecryptableCount (an snmp counter) in ieee80211_local structure and its usage in debugfs.c since this counter is not incremented/decremented anywhere.

mac80211: make bridge_packets a virtual interface option The bridge_packets configuration really should be per virtual interface (theoretically per AP/VLAN, but this is much easier); there currently is no way to set it yet though. Also invert the option to "NO_BRIDGE_PACKETS" so the default is to bridge. While at it, also document the flags properly.

mac80211: QoS related cleanups This * makes the queue number passed to drivers a u16 (as it will be with skb_get_queue_mapping) * removes the useless queue number defines * splits hw->queues into hw->queues/ampdu_queues * removes the debugfs files for per-queue counters * removes some dead QoS code * removes the beacon queue configuration for IBSS so that the drivers now never get a queue number bigger than (hw->queues + hw->ampdu_queues - 1) for tx and only in the range 0..hw->queues-1 for conf_tx.

mac80211: make debugfs files root-only Unfortunately, debugfs can be made to access invalid memory by open()ing a file and then waiting until the corresponding debugfs file has been removed (and, probably, the underlying object.) That could be exploited by any user if the user is able to open debugfs files and can cause networking devices, STA entries or similar to disappear which is quite easy to do. Hence, all debugfs files should be root-only. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

cfg80211 API for channels/bitrates, mac80211 and driver conversion This patch creates new cfg80211 wiphy API for channel and bitrate registration and converts mac80211 and drivers to the new API. The old mac80211 API is completely ripped out. All drivers (except ath5k) are updated to the new API, in many cases I expect that optimisations can be done. Along with the regulatory code I've also ripped out the IEEE80211_HW_DEFAULT_REG_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED flag, I believe it to be unnecessary if the hardware simply gives us whatever channels it wants to support and we then enable/disable them as required, which is pretty much required for travelling. Additionally, the patch adds proper "basic" rate handling for STA mode interface, AP mode interface will have to have new API added to allow userspace to set the basic rate set, currently it'll be empty... However, the basic rate handling will need to be moved to the BSS conf stuff. I do expect there to be bugs in this, especially wrt. transmit power handling where I'm basically clueless about how it should work.

[MAC80211]: remove turbo modes This patch removes all mention of the atheros turbo modes that can't possibly work properly anyway since in some places we don't check for them when we should. I have no idea what the iwlwifi drivers were doing with these but it can't possibly have been correct.
