The firmware may decide to switch channels while already beaconing, e.g. in response to a cfg80211 connect request on a different vif. Add this event to notify userspace when an AP or GO interface has successfully migrated to a new channel, so it can update its configuration accordingly.

In WoWLAN, we only get the triggers when we actually get to suspend. As a consequence, drivers currently don't know that the device should enable wakeup. However, the device_set_wakeup_enable() API is intended to be called when the wakeup is enabled, not later when needed. Add a new set_wakeup() call to cfg80211 and mac80211 to allow drivers to properly call device_set_wakeup_enable. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

This adds a DFS pattern detector to ath9k. It is fed with pulse events by the radar pulse detector and reports in place whether a pattern was detected. On detection, the result is reported as radar event to the DFS management component in the upper layer. Currently the ETSI DFS domain is supported with detector lines for the patterns defined by EN-301-893 v1.5.1. Support for FCC and JP will be added gradually. To include the pattern detector, ath9k must be built with support for DFS certified config flag set (CONFIG_ATH9K_DFS_CERTIFIED).

mac80211 currently only supports one hardware queue per AC. This is already problematic for off-channel uses since if we go off channel while the BE queue is full and then try to send an off-channel frame the frame will never go out. This will become worse when we support multi-channel since then a queue on one channel might be full, but we have to stop the software queue for all channels. That is obviously not desirable. To address this problem allow drivers to register more hardware queues, and allow them to map them to virtual interfaces. When they stop a hardware queue the corresponding AC software queues on the correct interfaces will be stopped as well. Additionally, there's an off-channel queue to solve that problem and a per-interface after-DTIM beacon queue. This allows drivers to manage software queues closer to how the hardware works. Currently, there's a limit of 16 hardware queues. This may or may not be sufficient, we can adjust it as needed. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

The queue mapping redesign that I'm planning to do will break pure injection unless we handle monitor interfaces explicitly. One possible option would be to have the driver tell mac80211 about monitor mode queues etc., but that would duplicate the API since we already need to have queue assignments handled per virtual interface. So in order to solve this, have a virtual monitor interface that is added whenever all active vifs are monitors. We could also use the state of one of the monitor interfaces, but managing that would be complicated, so allocate separate state.

In https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42976, a system with driver rtl8192se used as an AP suffers from "Out of SW-IOMMU space" errors.

The current version of rtlwifi for USB operations uses kmalloc to acquire a 32-bit buffer for each read of the device. When _usb_read_sync() is called with the rcu_lock held, the result is a "sleeping function called from invalid context" BUG. This is reported for two cases in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42775. The first case has the lock originating from within rtlwifi and could be fixed by rearranging the locking; however, the second originates from within mac80211. The kmalloc() call is removed from _usb_read_sync() by creating a ring buffer pointer in the private area and allocating the buffer data in the probe routine.

This patch adds MBSS extensible synchronization framework (Sec. 13.13.2 of IEEE Std. 802.11-2012). The framework is implemented via an ops table which defines the following functions: rx_bcn_presp() - this is called every time a mesh beacon is received. adjust_tbtt() - this is called immediately before a beacon is about to be transmitted. The default neighbor offset synchronization defined in the standard is implemented. We also provide template functions for vendor specific methods. When neighbor offset synchronization is active (which is the default) mesh neighbors in the same MBSS will track timing offsets to each other and compensate clock drift. In our tests we observed that this mesh synchronization implementation successfully corrected drifts between stations of ~2PPM while introducing a jitter of ~20us. It is also possible to test this framework on mac80211_hwsim simulated phys to see how it behaves under different topologies, over poor links, etc. Signed-off-by: Marco Porsch <marco.porsch@s2005.tu-chemnitz.de> Signed-off-by: Pavel Zubarev <pavel.zubarev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Javier Cardona <javier@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Generate more acurate tsf values in hwsim by setting the tsf value on trasmitted beacons immediately before they are moved to the rx path. Also, adjust the beacon timestamp to be the time at which the first byte of the timestamp is transmitted. With these changes the observed tsf offset between two hwsim/mesh peers is 0 (unless the offset is modified via debugfs) Signed-off-by: Javier Cardona <javier@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

While associated we should never have empty SSID, but life can be full of surprises, and is allways better to print a warning than crash. Before memcpy() in ieee80211_probereq_get() check ssid_len instead of ssid pointer, sice pointer it always passed by "ssidie + 2" expression to send probe functions, so practically never can be NULL.

When we get more hardware queues, we'll still want to only have netdev queues per AC, so set it up in that way. If the hardware doesn't support QoS (by not supporting at least 4 queues) the netdevs get a single queue only (this is no change in behavior as there are no drivers with 2 or 3 queues today.)

Drivers that don't support QoS also don't support setting up their ACs, catch that early. While at it, remove the input check since cfg80211 does it now. Also fix up the restart code to not try to set up the queues in this case. Finally also change the tx_conf array to have IEEE80211_NUM_ACS entries instead of # of queues since that's what it really needs.

This field is never set to anything non-zero in mac80211, so we should be able to remove it. Unfortunately though, the iwlwifi and iwlegacy drivers use it for their internal TX status processing (which shouldn't be using the rate control API to start with), so add a new field "status.antenna" for them, at least for now. In the future, I plan to use the new field to hold the hardware queue, while the SKB's queue mapping holds the AC. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
