* mac80211: move WEP tailroom size checkJanusz Dziedzic2015-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove checking tailroom when adding IV as it uses only headroom, and move the check to the ICV generation that actually needs the tailroom.

* mac80211: enable hash table shrinkingJohannes Berg2015-04-24
| | | | | | | | | The hashtable behaviour change was merged into the tree at about the same time as the mac80211 use of rhashtable, but of course these don't really conflict in the normal sense. Enable hash table shrinking now. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* mac80211: fix rhashtable conversionJohannes Berg2015-04-23
| | | | | | | | | My conversion of the mac80211 station hash table to rhashtable completely broke the lookup in sta_info_get() as it no longer took into account the virtual interface. Fix that.

* mac80211: don't warn when stopping VLAN with stationsJohannes Berg2015-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | Stations assigned to an AP_VLAN type interface are flushed when the interface is stopped, but then we warn about it. Suppress the warning since there's nothing else that would ensure those stations are already removed at this point.

From Floria Fainelli. 3) Allow 'ip address' commands to initiate multicast group join/leave, from Madhu Challa. 4) Many ipv4 FIB lookup optimizations from Alexander Duyck. 5) Support EBPF in cls_bpf classifier and act_bpf action, from Daniel Borkmann. 6) Remove the ugly compat support in ARP for ugly layers like ax25, rose, etc. And use this to clean up the neigh layer, then use it to implement MPLS support. All from Eric Biederman. 7) Support L3 forwarding offloading in switches, from Scott Feldman. 8) Collapse the LOCAL and MAIN ipv4 FIB tables when possible, to speed up route lookups even further. From Alexander Duyck. 9) Many improvements and bug fixes to the rhashtable implementation, from Herbert Xu and Thomas Graf. In particular, in the case where an rhashtable user bulk adds a large number of items into an empty table, we expand the table much more sanely. 10) Don't make the tcp_metrics hash table per-namespace, from Eric Biederman. 11) Extend EBPF to access SKB fields, from Alexei Starovoitov. 12) Split out new connection request sockets so that they can be established in the main hash table. Much less false sharing since hash lookups go direct to the request sockets instead of having to go first to the listener then to the request socks hashed underneath. From Eric Dumazet. 13) Add async I/O support for crytpo AF_ALG sockets, from Tadeusz Struk. 14) Support stable privacy address generation for RFC7217 in IPV6. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 15) Hash network namespace into IP frag IDs, also from Hannes Frederic Sowa. 16) Convert PTP get/set methods to use 64-bit time, from Richard Cochran. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1816 commits) fm10k: Bump driver version to 0.15.2 fm10k: corrected VF multicast update fm10k: mbx_update_max_size does not drop all oversized messages fm10k: reset head instead of calling update_max_size fm10k: renamed mbx_tx_dropped to mbx_tx_oversized fm10k: update xcast mode before synchronizing multicast addresses fm10k: start service timer on probe fm10k: fix function header comment fm10k: comment next_vf_mbx flow fm10k: don't handle mailbox events in iov_event path and always process mailbox fm10k: use separate workqueue for fm10k driver fm10k: Set PF queues to unlimited bandwidth during virtualization fm10k: expose tx_timeout_count as an ethtool stat fm10k: only increment tx_timeout_count in Tx hang path fm10k: remove extraneous "Reset interface" message fm10k: separate PF only stats so that VF does not display them fm10k: use hw->mac.max_queues for stats fm10k: only show actual queues, not the maximum in hardware fm10k: allow creation of VLAN on default vid fm10k: fix unused warnings ...

| | * mac80211: add an intermediate software queue implementationFelix Fietkau2015-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows drivers to request per-vif and per-sta-tid queues from which they can pull frames. This makes it easier to keep the hardware queues short, and to improve fairness between clients and vifs. The task of scheduling packet transmission is left up to the driver - queueing is controlled by mac80211. Drivers can only dequeue packets by calling ieee80211_tx_dequeue. This makes it possible to add active queue management later without changing drivers using this code. This can also be used as a starting point to implement A-MSDU aggregation in a way that does not add artificially induced latency.

| | * mac80211: use rhashtable for station tableJohannes Berg2015-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently have a hand-rolled table with 256 entries and are using the last byte of the MAC address as the hash. This hash is obviously very fast, but collisions are easily created and we waste a lot of space in the common case of just connecting as a client to an AP where we just have a single station. The other common case of an AP is also suboptimal due to the size of the hash table and the ease of causing collisions. Convert all of this to use rhashtable with jhash, which gives us the advantage of a far better hash function (with random perturbation to avoid hash collision attacks) and of course that the hash table grows and shrinks dynamically with chain length, improving both cases above. Use a specialised hash function (using jhash, but with fixed length) to achieve better compiler optimisation as suggested by Sergey Ryazanov. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

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>

| | * | mac80211: reject aggregation sessions with non-HT peersJohannes Berg2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a peer or some local agent (rate control, ...) decides to start an aggregation session but doesn't support HT (which also implies QoS), reject it. This is mostly a corner case as such peers normally won't try to use block-ack sessions and rate control wouldn't start them, but technically QoS stations could request it according to the spec. However, since drivers don't really support such non-HT sessions it's better to reject them. Also, while at it, move the tracing for TX sessions earlier so it captures the error cases as well.

| | * | cfg/mac80211: add regulatory classes IE during TDLS setupArik Nemtsov2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Seems Broadcom TDLS peers (Nexus 5, Xperia Z3) refuse to allow TDLS connection when channel-switching is supported but the regulatory classes IE is missing from the setup request. Add a chandef to reg-class translation function to cfg80211 and use it to add the required IE during setup. For now add only the current regulatory class as supported - it is enough to resolve the compatibility issue.

Currently mac80211 defers RX auth and assoc packets (among other ones) until after the scan is complete, so auth during scan is likely to fail if scan took too much time.

| | * | mac80211: agg-tx: avoid sending DelBA with sta->lock heldJohannes Berg2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The rate control locking caused a potential deadlock here due to the locks being acquired in different orders, so that change cannot yet be applied. However, there's no fundamental reason for this code to hold the sta->lock while transmitting frames. Clearly it's better not to hold the lock for longer periods of time, which can happen here since we call all the way down to the driver. Change the code a bit to not hold it while doing that.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of looking up the destination station twice in the TX path (first to build the header, and then for control processing), save it when building the header and use it later in the TX path. To avoid having to look up the station in the many callers, allow those to pass %NULL which keeps the existing lookup. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In ieee80211_build_hdr(), the station is looked up to build the header correctly (QoS field) and to check for authorization. For mesh, authorization isn't checked here, and QoS capability is mandatory, so the station lookup can be avoided. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
| | * | mac80211: drop 4-addr VLAN frames earlier if not connectedJohannes Berg2015-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If there's no station on the 4-addr VLAN interface, then frames cannot be transmitted. Drop such frames earlier, before setting up all the information for them. We should keep the old check though since that code might be used for other internally-generated frames.

This happens for 4-addr VLAN interfaces and TDLS connections, which both directly send the frame to the station they looked up, though in the case of TDLS some station conditions need to be checked. To avoid that, add a variable indicating that we've looked up the station that the frame is going to be transmitted to, and avoid the lookup/flag checking if it already has been done. In the TDLS case, also move the authorized/wme_sta flag assignment to the correct place, i.e. only when that station is really used. Before this change, the new lookup should always have succeeded so that the potentially erroneous data would be overwritten. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

In particular, use this flag on the TX path instead of testing the sta->cipher_scheme pointer, as the station is NULL for broad-/multicast message, and use the key's iv_len instead of the cipher scheme information.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On very high MCS bitrates, the calculated duration of rates that are next to each other can be very imprecise, due to the small packet size used as reference (1200 bytes). This is most visible in VHT80 nss=2 MCS8/9, for which minstrel shows the same throughput when the probability is also the same. This leads to a bad rate selection for such rates. Fix this issue by introducing an average A-MPDU size factor into the calculation. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
