2009-12-28mac80211: fix propagation of failed hardware reconfigurationsLuis R. Rodriguez
mac80211 does not propagate failed hardware reconfiguration requests. For suspend and resume this is important due to all the possible issues that can come out of the suspend <-> resume cycle. Not propagating the error means cfg80211 will assume the resume for the device went through fine and mac80211 will continue on trying to poke at the hardware, enable timers, queue work, and so on for a device which is completley unfunctional. The least we can do is to propagate device start issues and warn when this occurs upon resume. A side effect of this patch is we also now propagate the start errors upon harware reconfigurations (non-suspend), but this should also be desirable anyway, there is not point in continuing to reconfigure a device if mac80211 was unable to start the device.

2009-12-28mac80211: fix race with suspend and dynamic_ps_disable_workLuis R. Rodriguez
When mac80211 suspends it calls a driver's suspend callback as a last step and after that the driver assumes no calls will be made to it until we resume and its start callback is kicked. If such calls are made, however, suspend can end up throwing hardware in an unexpected state and making the device unusable upon resume. Fix this by preventing mac80211 to schedule dynamic_ps_disable_work by checking for when mac80211 starts to suspend and starts quiescing. Frames should be allowed to go through though as that is part of the quiescing steps and we do not flush the mac80211 workqueue since it was already done towards the beginning of suspend cycle. The other mac80211 issue will be hanled in the next patch. For further details see refer to the thread: http://marc.info/?t=126144866100001&r=1&w=2 Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Luis R.

In that case, it may happen that mac80211 tries to report the assoc success to cfg80211, but gets blocked on the wdev lock that is held because the user is requesting the deauth. The result is that we run into a warning. This is mostly harmless, but maybe cause an unexpected event to be sent to userspace; we'd send an assoc success event although userspace was no longer expecting that. To fix this, remove the warning and check whether the race happened and in that case abort processing.

2009-12-28mac80211: fix ibss join with fixed-bssidFelix Fietkau
When fixed bssid is requested when joining an ibss network, incoming beacons that match the configured bssid cause mac80211 to create new sta entries, even before the ibss interface is in joined state. When that happens, it fails to bring up the interface entirely, because it checks for existing sta entries before joining.

2009-12-26llc: replace the socket list with a local address based hashOctavian Purdila
For the cases where a lot of interfaces are used in conjunction with a lot of LLC sockets bound to the same SAP, the iteration of the socket list becomes prohibitively expensive. Replacing the list with a a local address based hash significantly improves the bind and listener lookup operations as well as the datagram delivery. Connected sockets delivery is also improved, but this patch does not address the case where we have lots of sockets with the same local address connected to different remote addresses. In order to keep the socket sanity checks alive and fast a socket counter was added to the SAP structure. Signed-off-by: Octavian Purdila <opurdila@ixiacom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-12-26llc: convert the socket list to RCU lockingOctavian Purdila
For the reclamation phase we use the SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU mechanism, which require some extra checks in the lookup code: a) If the current socket was released, reallocated & inserted in another list it will short circuit the iteration for the current list, thus we need to restart the lookup. b) If the current socket was released, reallocated & inserted in the same list we just need to recheck it matches the look-up criteria and if not we can skip to the next element. In this case there is no need to restart the lookup, since sockets are inserted at the start of the list and the worst that will happen is that we will iterate throught some of the list elements more then once. Note that the /proc and multicast delivery was not yet converted to RCU, it still uses spinlocks for protection. Signed-off-by: Octavian Purdila <opurdila@ixiacom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-12-23net: Add rtnetlink init_rcvwnd to set the TCP initial receive windowlaurent chavey
Add rtnetlink init_rcvwnd to set the TCP initial receive window size advertised by passive and active TCP connections. The current Linux TCP implementation limits the advertised TCP initial receive window to the one prescribed by slow start. For short lived TCP connections used for transaction type of traffic (i.e. http requests), bounding the advertised TCP initial receive window results in increased latency to complete the transaction. Support for setting initial congestion window is already supported using rtnetlink init_cwnd, but the feature is useless without the ability to set a larger TCP initial receive window. The rtnetlink init_rcvwnd allows increasing the TCP initial receive window, allowing TCP connection to advertise larger TCP receive window than the ones bounded by slow start.

2009-12-22kfifo: move struct kfifo in placeStefani Seibold
This is a new generic kernel FIFO implementation. The current kernel fifo API is not very widely used, because it has to many constrains. Only 17 files in the current 2.6.31-rc5 used it. FIFO's are like list's a very basic thing and a kfifo API which handles the most use case would save a lot of development time and memory resources. I think this are the reasons why kfifo is not in use: - The API is to simple, important functions are missing - A fifo can be only allocated dynamically - There is a requirement of a spinlock whether you need it or not - There is no support for data records inside a fifo So I decided to extend the kfifo in a more generic way without blowing up the API to much. The new API has the following benefits: - Generic usage: For kernel internal use and/or device driver. - Provide an API for the most use case. - Slim API: The whole API provides 25 functions. - Linux style habit. - DECLARE_KFIFO, DEFINE_KFIFO and INIT_KFIFO Macros - Direct copy_to_user from the fifo and copy_from_user into the fifo. - The kfifo itself is an in place member of the using data structure, this save an indirection access and does not waste the kernel allocator. - Lockless access: if only one reader and one writer is active on the fifo, which is the common use case, no additional locking is necessary. - Remove spinlock - give the user the freedom of choice what kind of locking to use if one is required. - Ability to handle records. Three type of records are supported: - Variable length records between 0-255 bytes, with a record size field of 1 bytes. - Variable length records between 0-65535 bytes, with a record size field of 2 bytes. - Fixed size records, which no record size field. - Preserve memory resource. - Performance! - Easy to use! This patch: Since most users want to have the kfifo as part of another object, reorganize the code to allow including struct kfifo in another data structure. This requires changing the kfifo_alloc and kfifo_init prototypes so that we pass an existing kfifo pointer into them. This patch changes the implementation and all existing users.

2009-12-21mac80211: remove payload alignment warningKalle Valo
The payload alignment warning enabled by MAC80211_DEBUG_PACKET_ALIGNMENT is difficult. To fix it, a firmware change is needed but in most cases that's very difficult. So the benefit from the warning is low and most probably it just creates more confusion for people who just enable all warnings (like it did for me). Remove the unaligned IP payload warning and the kconfig option. But leave the unaligned packet warning, it will be enabled with MAC80211_VERBOSE_DEBUG.

2009-12-21mac80211: trace interface nameJohannes Berg
It's not all that useful to have the vif/sdata pointer, we'd rather refer to the interfaces by their name. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
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.

2009-12-21mac80211: fix WMM AP settings applicationJohannes Berg
My commit 77fdaa12cea26c204cc12c312fe40bc0f3dcdfd8 Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Date: Tue Jul 7 03:45:17 2009 +0200 mac80211: rework MLME for multiple authentications inadvertedly broke WMM because it removed, along with a bunch of other now useless initialisations, the line initialising sdata->u.mgd.wmm_last_param_set to -1 which would make it adopt any WMM parameter set. If, as is usually the case, the AP uses WMM parameter set sequence number zero, we'd never update it until the AP changes the sequence number. Add the missing initialisation back to get the WMM settings from the AP applied locally.
