Normally, this is the case unless the station goes to sleep and wakes up very quickly again. But in that case, frames for it may be pending on the hardware queues, and thus races could happen in the case of multiple hardware queues used for QoS/WMM. Normally this isn't a problem, but with the iwlwifi mechanism we need to make sure the race doesn't happen. This makes mac80211 able to cope with the race with driver help by a new WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER per-station flag that can be controlled by the driver and tells mac80211 whether it can transmit frames or not. This flag must be set according to very specific rules outlined in the documentation for the function that controls it. When we buffer new frames for the station, we normally set the TIM bit right away, but while the driver has blocked transmission to that sta we need to avoid that as well since we cannot respond to the station if it wakes up due to the TIM bit. Once the driver unblocks, we can set the TIM bit. Similarly, when the station just wakes up, we need to wait until all other frames are flushed before we can transmit frames to that station, so the same applies here, we need to wait for the driver to give the OK.

| | * | | | | | | mac80211: make ieee80211_find_sta per virtual interfaceJohannes Berg2009-11-04

For now continue exporting the old API in form of ieee80211_find_sta_by_hw(), but discourage its use strongly. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

Since it is unused anyway, this patch deprecates it in the hope that drivers will remove their sometimes quite expensive calculations of the value. I'm open to actual uses of the value, but the best way of using it seems to be what the Intel drivers do which should probably be generalised if we have noise values from the hardware.

Also, drivers would have to copy the code to generate the radiotap bits that now mac80211 generates. If some driver in the future needs to add some driver-specific information I'd expect that to be in a radiotap vendor namespace and we can add a different way of passing such data up and having mac80211 include it. Additionally, rename IEEE80211_CONF_RADIOTAP to IEEE80211_CONF_MONITOR since it's still used by b43(legacy) to obtain per-frame timestamps. The purpose of this patch is to simplify the RX code in mac80211 to make it easier to add paged skb support. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

Quite obviously, that is completely useless. Instead of trying to do that, use unaligned accesses to generate the radiotap header. To properly do that, we also need to mark struct ieee80211_radiotap_header packed, but that is fine since it's already packed (and it should be marked packed anyway since its a wire format).

| * | | | | | | | xfrm: SAD entries do not expire correctly after suspend-resumeYury Polyanskiy2009-11-08

This leads to the connectivity problems because after resuming local machine thinks that the SAD entry is still valid, while it has already been expired on the remote server. The cause of this is very simple: the timeouts in the net/xfrm are bound to the old mod_timer() timers. This patch reassigns them to the CLOCK_REALTIME hrtimer. I have been using this version of the patch for a few months on my machines without any problems. Also run a few stress tests w/o any issues. This version of the patch uses tasklet_hrtimer by Peter Zijlstra (commit 9ba5f0). This patch is against 2.6.31.4. Please CC me.

We have to be careful to ensure that the target network namespace for the new device exists through the life of the call. To keep that logic clear I have factored out the network namespace grabbing logic into rtnl_link_get_net. In addtion we need to continue to pass the source network namespace to the rtnl_link_ops.newlink method so that we can find the base device source network namespace. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

However, all this was pretty dirty and not clear, with many open spots where race conditions were present. This commit cleans up the situation by: - documenting the usage of both bits - setting them only in specific, well controlled places (i2400m_dev_start, i2400m_dev_stop) - ensuring the i2400m workqueue can't get in the middle of the setting by flushing it when i2400m->ready is set to zero. This allows the report hook not having to check again for the bit to be set [rx.c:i2400m_report_hook_work()]. - using i2400m->updown to determine if the device is up and running instead of the wimax state in i2400m_dev_reset_handle(). - not loosing missed messages sent by the hardware before i2400m->ready is set. In rx.c, whatever the device sends can be sent to user space over the message pipes as soon as the wimax device is registered, so don't wait for i2400m->ready to be set.

This allows a future patch to define these fields as macros, like sk_refcnt, without name clashes. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Next patches will introduce mechanisms where protocols that want to optimize this operation will provide an unlocked_recvmsg operation. This takes into account comments made by: . Paul Moore: sock_recvmsg is called only for the first datagram, sock_recvmsg_nosec is used for the rest. . Caitlin Bestler: recvmmsg now has a struct timespec timeout, that works in the same fashion as the ppoll one. If the underlying protocol returns a datagram with MSG_OOB set, this will make recvmmsg return right away with as many datagrams (+ the OOB one) it has received so far. . Rémi Denis-Courmont & Steven Whitehouse: If we receive N < vlen datagrams and then recvmsg returns an error, recvmmsg will return the successfully received datagrams, store the error and return it in the next call. This paves the way for a subsequent optimization, sk_prot->unlocked_recvmsg, where we will be able to acquire the lock only at batch start and end, not at every underlying recvmsg call.

This value was exported via a SOL_PACKET level cmsg. AFter I completed that work it was requested that this feature be generalized so that any datagram oriented socket could make use of this option. As such I've created this patch, It creates a new SOL_SOCKET level option called SO_RXQ_OVFL, which when enabled exports a SOL_SOCKET level cmsg that reports the nubmer of times the sk_receive_queue overflowed between any two given frames. It also augments the AF_PACKET protocol to take advantage of this new feature (as it previously did not touch sk->sk_drops, which this patch uses to record the overflow count). Tested successfully by me. Notes: 1) Unlike my previous patch, this patch simply records the sk_drops value, which is not a number of drops between packets, but rather a total number of drops. Deltas must be computed in user space. 2) While this patch currently works with datagram oriented protocols, it will also be accepted by non-datagram oriented protocols. I'm not sure if thats agreeable to everyone, but my argument in favor of doing so is that, for those protocols which aren't applicable to this option, sk_drops will always be zero, and reporting no drops on a receive queue that isn't used for those non-participating protocols seems reasonable to me. This also saves us having to code in a per-protocol opt in mechanism. 3) This applies cleanly to net-next assuming that commit 977750076d98c7ff6cbda51858bb5a5894a9d9ab (my af packet cmsg patch) is reverted Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
