2023-09-11wifi: mac80211: debugfs: lock wiphy instead of RTNLJohannes Berg1-3/+3
Since we no longer really use the RTNL, there's no point in locking it here. Most drivers don't really need to have any locks here anyway, and the rest are probably completely broken, but it's a debugfs-only callback so it really doesn't matter much.

2022-07-22wifi: mac80211: optionally implement MLO multicast TXJohannes Berg1-1/+2
For drivers using software encryption for multicast TX, such as mac80211_hwsim, mac80211 needs to duplicate the multicast frames on each link, if MLO is enabled. Do this, but don't just make it dependent on the key but provide a separate flag for drivers to opt out of this. This is not very efficient, I expect that drivers will do it in firmware/hardware or at least with DMA engine assistence, so this is mostly for hwsim. To make this work, also implement the SNS11 sequence number space that an AP MLD shall have, and modify the API to the __ieee80211_subif_start_xmit() function to always require the link ID bits to be set.

2021-06-23mac80211: Switch to a virtual time-based airtime schedulerToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-13/+57
This switches the airtime scheduler in mac80211 to use a virtual time-based scheduler instead of the round-robin scheduler used before. This has a couple of advantages: - No need to sync up the round-robin scheduler in firmware/hardware with the round-robin airtime scheduler. - If several stations are eligible for transmission we can schedule both of them; no need to hard-block the scheduling rotation until the head of the queue has used up its quantum. - The check of whether a station is eligible for transmission becomes simpler (in ieee80211_txq_may_transmit()). The drawback is that scheduling becomes slightly more expensive, as we need to maintain an rbtree of TXQs sorted by virtual time. This means that ieee80211_register_airtime() becomes O(logN) in the number of currently scheduled TXQs because it can change the order of the scheduled stations. We mitigate this overhead by only resorting when a station changes position in the tree, and hopefully N rarely grows too big (it's only TXQs currently backlogged, not all associated stations), so it shouldn't be too big of an issue. To prevent divisions in the fast path, we maintain both station sums and pre-computed reciprocals of the sums. This turns the fast-path operation into a multiplication, with divisions only happening as the number of active stations change (to re-compute the current sum of all active station weights). To prevent this re-computation of the reciprocal from happening too frequently, we use a time-based notion of station activity, instead of updating the weight every time a station gets scheduled or de-scheduled. As queues can oscillate between empty and occupied quite frequently, this can significantly cut down on the number of re-computations. It also has the added benefit of making the station airtime calculation independent on whether the queue happened to have drained at the time an airtime value was accounted.

2021-04-08mac80211: Allow concurrent monitor iface and ethernet rx decapSriram R1-0/+1
Some HW/driver can support passing ethernet rx decap frames and raw 802.11 frames for the monitor interface concurrently and via separate RX calls to mac80211. Packets going to the monitor interface(s) would be in 802.11 format and thus not have the RX_FLAG_8023 set, and 802.11 format monitoring frames should have RX_FLAG_ONLY_MONITOR set. Drivers doing such can enable the SUPPORTS_CONC_MON_RX_DECAP to allow using ethernet decap offload while a monitor interface is active, currently RX decapsulation offload gets disabled when a monitor interface is added.

When trying to configure airtime_flags in debugfs, an error appeared: ash: write error: Invalid argument The error is returned from kstrtou16() since a wrong length makes it miss the real end of input string.

2020-09-18mac80211: rework tx encapsulation offload APIFelix Fietkau1-0/+1
The current API (which lets the driver turn on/off per vif directly) has a number of limitations: - it does not deal with AP_VLAN - conditions for enabling (no tkip, no monitor) are only checked at add_interface time - no way to indicate 4-addr support In order to address this, store offload flags in struct ieee80211_vif (easy to extend for decap offload later). mac80211 initially sets the enable flag, but gives the driver a chance to modify it before its settings are applied. In addition to the .add_interface op, a .update_vif_offload op is introduced, which can be used for runtime changes. If a driver can't disable encap offload at runtime, or if it has some extra limitations, it can simply override the flags within those ops. Support for encap offload with 4-address mode interfaces can be enabled by setting a flag from .add_interface or .update_vif_offload.

2019-11-22mac80211: Implement Airtime-based Queue Limit (AQL)Kan Yan1-0/+85
In order for the Fq_CoDel algorithm integrated in mac80211 layer to operate effectively to control excessive queueing latency, the CoDel algorithm requires an accurate measure of how long packets stays in the queue, AKA sojourn time. The sojourn time measured at the mac80211 layer doesn't include queueing latency in the lower layer (firmware/hardware) and CoDel expects lower layer to have a short queue. However, most 802.11ac chipsets offload tasks such TX aggregation to firmware or hardware, thus have a deep lower layer queue. Without a mechanism to control the lower layer queue size, packets only stay in mac80211 layer transiently before being sent to firmware queue. As a result, the sojourn time measured by CoDel in the mac80211 layer is almost always lower than the CoDel latency target, hence CoDel does little to control the latency, even when the lower layer queue causes excessive latency. The Byte Queue Limits (BQL) mechanism is commonly used to address the similar issue with wired network interface. However, this method cannot be applied directly to the wireless network interface. "Bytes" is not a suitable measure of queue depth in the wireless network, as the data rate can vary dramatically from station to station in the same network, from a few Mbps to over Gbps. This patch implements an Airtime-based Queue Limit (AQL) to make CoDel work effectively with wireless drivers that utilized firmware/hardware offloading. AQL allows each txq to release just enough packets to the lower layer to form 1-2 large aggregations to keep hardware fully utilized and retains the rest of the frames in mac80211 layer to be controlled by the CoDel algorithm.

2019-04-26mac80211: debugfs option to force TX status framesJulius Niedworok1-0/+53
At Technical University of Munich we use MAC 802.11 TX status frames to perform several measurements in MAC 802.11 setups. With ath based drivers this was possible until commit d94a461d7a7df6 ("ath9k: use ieee80211_tx_status_noskb where possible") as the driver ignored the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS flag and always delivered tx_status frames. Since that commit, this behavior was changed and the driver now adheres to IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS. Due to performance reasons, IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS is not set for data frames from interfaces in managed mode. Hence, frames that are sent from a managed mode interface do never deliver tx_status frames. This remains true even if a monitor mode interface (the measurement interface) is added to the same ieee80211 physical device. Thus, there is no possibility for receiving tx_status frames for frames sent on an interface in managed mode, if the driver adheres to IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS. In order to force delivery of tx_status frames for research and debugging purposes, implement a debugfs option force_tx_status for ieee80211 physical devices. When this option is set for a physical device, IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS is enabled in all packets sent from that device. This option can be set via /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/<dev>/force_tx_status. The default is disabled.

2019-01-19mac80211: Add airtime accounting and scheduling to TXQsToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-0/+3
This adds airtime accounting and scheduling to the mac80211 TXQ scheduler. A new callback, ieee80211_sta_register_airtime(), is added that drivers can call to report airtime usage for stations. When airtime information is present, mac80211 will schedule TXQs (through ieee80211_next_txq()) in a way that enforces airtime fairness between active stations. This scheduling works the same way as the ath9k in-driver airtime fairness scheduling. If no airtime usage is reported by the driver, the scheduler will default to round-robin scheduling. For drivers that don't control TXQ scheduling in software, a new API function, ieee80211_txq_may_transmit(), is added which the driver can use to check if the TXQ is eligible for transmission, or should be throttled to enforce fairness. Calls to this function must also be enclosed in ieee80211_txq_schedule_{start,end}() calls to ensure proper locking. The API ieee80211_txq_may_transmit() also ensures that TXQ list will be aligned aginst driver's own round-robin scheduler list. i.e it rotates the TXQ list till it makes the requested node becomes the first entry in TXQ list. Thus both the TXQ list and driver's list are in sync.

Fun set of conflict resolutions here... For the mac80211 stuff, these were fortunately just parallel adds. Trivially resolved. In drivers/net/phy/phy.c we had a bug fix in 'net' that moved the function phy_disable_interrupts() earlier in the file, whilst in 'net-next' the phy_error() call from this function was removed. In net/ipv4/xfrm4_policy.c, David Ahern's changes to remove the 'rt_table_id' member of rtable collided with a bug fix in 'net' that added a new struct member "rt_mtu_locked" which needs to be copied over here. The mlxsw driver conflict consisted of net-next separating the span code and definitions into separate files, whilst a 'net' bug fix made some changes to that moved code. The mlx5 infiniband conflict resolution was quite non-trivial, the RDMA tree's merge commit was used as a guide here, and here are their notes: ==================== Due to bug fixes found by the syzkaller bot and taken into the for-rc branch after development for the 4.17 merge window had already started being taken into the for-next branch, there were fairly non-trivial merge issues that would need to be resolved between the for-rc branch and the for-next branch. This merge resolves those conflicts and provides a unified base upon which ongoing development for 4.17 can be based. Conflicts: drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/main.c - Commit 42cea83f9524 (IB/mlx5: Fix cleanup order on unload) added to for-rc and commit b5ca15ad7e61 (IB/mlx5: Add proper representors support) add as part of the devel cycle both needed to modify the init/de-init functions used by mlx5. To support the new representors, the new functions added by the cleanup patch needed to be made non-static, and the init/de-init list added by the representors patch needed to be modified to match the init/de-init list changes made by the cleanup patch. Updates: drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mlx5_ib.h - Update function prototypes added by representors patch to reflect new function names as changed by cleanup patch drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/ib_rep.c - Update init/de-init stage list to match new order from cleanup patch ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-03-21mac80211: add ieee80211_hw flag for QoS NDP supportBen Caradoc-Davies1-0/+1
Commit 7b6ddeaf27ec ("mac80211: use QoS NDP for AP probing") added an argument qos_ok to ieee80211_nullfunc_get to support QoS NDP. Despite the claim in the commit log "Change all the drivers to *not* allow QoS NDP for now, even though it looks like most of them should be OK with that", this commit enables QoS NDP in response to beacons (see change to mlme.c:ieee80211_send_nullfunc), causing ath9k_htc to lose IP connectivity. See: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10241109/ https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=891060 Introduce a hardware flag to allow such buggy drivers to override the correct default behaviour of mac80211 of sending QoS NDP packets.

2018-02-22mac80211: Call mgd_prep_tx before transmitting deauthenticationIlan Peer1-0/+1
In multi channel scenarios, when disassociating from the AP before a beacon was heard from the AP, it is not guaranteed that the virtual interface is granted air time for the transmission of the deauthentication frame. This in turn can lead to various issues as the AP might never get the deauthentication frame. To mitigate such possible issues, add a HW flag indicating that the driver requires mac80211 to call the mgd_prep_tx() driver callback to make sure that the virtual interface is granted immediate airtime to be able to transmit the frame, in case that no beacon was heard from the AP.

2017-12-11mac80211: Add airtime account and scheduling to TXQsToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-0/+1
This adds airtime accounting and scheduling to the mac80211 TXQ scheduler. A new hardware flag, AIRTIME_ACCOUNTING, is added that drivers can set if they support reporting airtime usage of transmissions. When this flag is set, mac80211 will expect the actual airtime usage to be reported in the tx_time and rx_time fields of the respective status structs. When airtime information is present, mac80211 will schedule TXQs (through ieee80211_next_txq()) in a way that enforces airtime fairness between active stations. This scheduling works the same way as the ath9k in-driver airtime fairness scheduling. Signed-off-by: Toke Høiland-Jørgensen <toke@toke.dk> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2016-09-15mac80211: allow driver to handle packet-loss mechanismRajkumar Manoharan1-0/+1
Based on consecutive msdu failures, mac80211 triggers CQM packet-loss mechanism. Drivers like ath10k that have its own connection monitoring algorithm, offloaded to firmware for triggering station kickout. In case of station kickout, driver will report low ack status by mac80211 API (ieee80211_report_low_ack). This flag will enable the driver to completely rely on firmware events for station kickout and bypass mac80211 packet loss mechanism.

2016-09-13mac80211: Re-structure aqm debugfs output and keep CoDel stats per txqToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-125/+26
Currently the 'aqm' stats in mac80211 only keeps overlimit drop stats, not CoDel stats. This moves the CoDel stats into the txqi structure to keep them per txq in order to show them in debugfs. In addition, the aqm debugfs output is restructured by splitting it up into three files: One global per phy, one per netdev and one per station, in the appropriate directories. The files are all called aqm, and are only created if the driver supports the wake_tx_queue op (rather than emitting an error on open as previously).
