2011-08-22mac80211: update mesh path selection frame formatThomas Pedersen

2011-08-22mac80211: update mesh peering frame formatThomas Pedersen
This patch updates the mesh peering frames to the format specified in the recently ratified 802.11s standard. Several changes took place to make this happen: - Change RX path to handle new self-protected frames - Add new Peering management IE - Remove old Peer Link IE - Remove old plink_action field in ieee80211_mgmt header These changes by themselves would either break peering, or work by coincidence, so squash them all into this patch.

2011-08-22mac80211: Tear down BA session on BAR tx failureHelmut Schaa
As described at [1] some STAs (i.e. Intel 5100 Windows) can end up correctly BlockAcking incoming frames without delivering them to user space if a AMPDU subframe got lost and we don't flush the receipients reorder buffer with a BlockAckReq. This in turn results in stuck connections. According to 802.11n-2009 it is not necessary to send a BAR to flush the recepients RX reorder buffer but we still do that to be polite. However, assume the following frame exchange: AP -> STA, AMPDU (failed) AP -> STA, BAR (failed) The client in question then ends up in the same situation and won't deliver frames to userspace anymore since we weren't able to flush its reorder buffer. This is not a hypothetical situation but I was able to observe this exact behavior during a stress test between a rt2800pci AP and a Intel 5100 Windows client. In order to work around this issue just tear down the BA session as soon as a BAR failed to be TX'ed.

2011-08-13af_iucv: add HiperSockets transportUrsula Braun
The current transport mechanism for af_iucv is the z/VM offered communications facility IUCV. To provide equivalent support when running Linux in an LPAR, HiperSockets transport is added to the AF_IUCV address family. It requires explicit binding of an AF_IUCV socket to a HiperSockets device. A new packet_type ETH_P_AF_IUCV is announced. An af_iucv specific transport header is defined preceding the skb data. A small protocol is implemented for connecting and for flow control/congestion management.
