2012-03-07mac80211: Fix potential null pointer dereferencingAshok Nagarajan

2012-03-05{nl,cfg,mac}80211: Implement RSSI threshold for mesh peeringAshok Nagarajan
Mesh peer links are established only if average rssi of the peer candidate satisfies the threshold. This is not in 802.11s specification but was requested by David Fulgham, an open80211s user. This is a way to avoid marginal peer links with stations that are barely within range. This patch adds a new mesh configuration parameter, mesh_rssi_threshold. This feature is supported only for hardwares that report signal in dBm. Signed-off-by: Ashok Nagarajan <ashok@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: Javier Cardona <javier@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2012-01-30mac80211: station state transition error handlingJohannes Berg
In the future, when we start notifying drivers, state transitions could potentially fail. To make it easier to distinguish between programming bugs and driver failures: * rename sta_info_move_state() to sta_info_pre_move_state() which can only be called before the station is inserted (and check this with a new station flag). * rename sta_info_move_state_checked() to just plain sta_info_move_state(), as it will be the regular function that can fail for more than just one reason (bad transition or an error from the driver) This makes the programming model easier -- one of the functions can only be called before insertion and can't fail, the other can fail.

2012-01-18mac80211: Use the right headroom size for mesh mgmt framesJavier Cardona
Use local->tx_headroom instad of local->hw.extra_tx_headroom. local->tx_headroom is the max of hw.extra_tx_headroom required by the driver and the headroom required by mac80211 for status reporting. On drivers where hw.extra_tx_headroom is smaller than what mac80211 requires (e.g. ath5k), we would not reserve sufficient buffer space to report tx status. Also, don't reserve local->tx_headroom + local->hw.extra_tx_headroom.

2011-12-15mac80211: refactor station state transitionsJohannes Berg
Station entries can have various states, the most important ones being auth, assoc and authorized. This patch prepares us for telling the driver about these states, we don't want to confuse drivers with strange transitions, so with this we enforce that they move in the right order between them (back and forth); some transitions might happen before the driver even knows about the station, but at least runtime transitions will be ordered correctly. As a consequence, IBSS and MESH stations will now have the ASSOC flag set (so they can transition to AUTHORIZED), and we can get rid of a special case in TX processing. When freeing a station, unwind the state so that other parts of the code (or drivers later) can rely on the transitions. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-02-08mac80211: allow station add/remove to sleepJohannes Berg
Many drivers would like to sleep during station addition and removal, and currently have a high complexity there from not being able to. This introduces two new callbacks sta_add() and sta_remove() that drivers can implement instead of using sta_notify() and that can sleep, and the new sta_add() callback is also allowed to fail. The reason we didn't do this previously is that the IBSS code wants to insert stations from the RX path, which is a tasklet, so cannot sleep. This patch will keep the station allocation in that path, but moves adding the station to the driver out of line. Since the addition can now fail, we can have IBSS peer structs the driver rejected -- in that case we still talk to the station but never tell the driver about it in the control.sta pointer. If there will ever be a driver that has a low limit on the number of stations and that cannot talk to any stations that are not known to it, we need to do come up with a new strategy of handling larger IBSSs, maybe quicker expiry or rejecting peers.

2009-12-21mac80211: reduce reliance on netdevJohannes Berg
For bluetooth 3, we will most likely not have a netdev for a virtual interface (sdata), so prepare for that by reducing the reliance on having a netdev. This patch moves the name and address fields into the sdata struct and uses them from there all over. Some work is needed to keep them sync'ed, but that's not a lot of work and in slow paths anyway. In doing so, this also reduces the number of pointer dereferences in many places, because of things like sdata->dev->dev_addr becoming sdata->vif.addr.

2009-12-21mac80211: make station management completely depend on vifJohannes Berg
The station management currently uses the virtual interface, but you cannot add the same station to multiple virtual interfaces if you're communicating with it in multiple ways. This restriction should be lifted so that in the future we can, for instance, support bluetooth 3 with an access point that mac80211 is already associated to. We can do that by requiring all sta_info_get users to provide the virtual interface and making the RX code aware that an address may match more than one station struct. Thanks to the previous patches this one isn't all that large and except for the RX and TX status paths changes has low complexity.
