2009-08-14mac80211: allow DMA optimisationJohannes Berg
If we have a lot of frames to transmit at once, for instance with fragmentation, it can be an optimisation to only tell the DMA engine about them on the last fragment/frame to avoid banging the IO too much. This patch allows implementation such an optimisation by telling the driver when more frames can be expected. Currently, this is used by mac80211 only on fragmented frames, but could also be used in the future on other frames when the queue was full and there are multiple frames pending. Note that drivers need to be careful when using this flag, they need to kick their DMA engines not just when this flag is clear, but also when the queue gets full so that progress can be made.

2009-08-14nl80211: add generation number to all dumpsJohannes Berg
In order for userspace to be able to figure out whether it obtained a consistent snapshot of data or not when using netlink dumps, we need to have a generation number in each dump message that indicates whether the list has changed or not -- its value is arbitrary. This patch adds such a number to all dumps, this needs some mac80211 involvement to keep track of a generation number to start with when adding/removing mesh paths or stations. The wiphy and netdev lists can be fully handled within cfg80211, of course, but generation numbers need to be stored there as well.

2009-08-14cfg80211: use reassociation when possibleJohannes Berg
With the move of everything related to the SME from mac80211 to cfg80211, we lost the ability to send reassociation frames. This adds them back, but only for wireless extensions. With the userspace SME, it shall control assoc vs. reassoc (it already can do so with the nl80211 interface). I haven't touched the connect() implementation, so it is not possible to reassociate with the nl80211 connect primitive. I think that should be done with the NL80211_CMD_ROAM command, but we'll have to see how that can be handled in the future, especially with fullmac chips. This patch addresses only the immediate regression we had in mac80211, which previously sent reassoc. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-08-14cfg80211: validate channel settings across interfacesJohannes Berg
Currently, there's a problem that affects regulatory enforcement and connection stability, in that it is possible to switch the channel while connected to a network or joined to an IBSS. The problem comes from the fact that we only validate the channel against the current interface's type, not against any other interface. Thus, you have any type of interface up, additionally bring up a monitor mode interface and switch the channel on the monitor. This will obviously also switch the channel on the other interface. The problem now is that if you do that while sending beacons for IBSS mode, you can switch to a disabled channel or a channel that doesn't allow beaconing. Combined with a managed mode interface connected to an AP instead of an IBSS interface, you can easily break the connection that way. To fix this, this patch validates any channel change with all available interfaces, and disallows such changes on secondary interfaces if another interface is connected to an AP or joined to an IBSS.

2009-08-14cfg80211: Set WEP ciphersSamuel Ortiz
With iwconfig there is no way to properly set the ciphers when trying to connect to a WEP SSID. Although mac80211 based drivers dont need it, several fullmac drivers do. This patch basically sets the WEP ciphers whenever they're not set at all. Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-08-14cfg80211: fix SME association after disassociationJohannes Berg
When an AP disassociates us, we currently go into a weird state because the SME doesn't handle authenticated but not associated well unless it's within its own state machine, it can't recover from that. However, it shouldn't need to, since we don't do any decisions in it really -- so when we get disconnected, simply deauthenticate too.

2009-08-14cfg80211: fix nl80211 disconnected eventsJohannes Berg
When reporting a disconnection to userspace, we try to report whether it was from the AP or by our own choice. However, we misreported a broadcast deauth or disassoc as being by own choice, which is wrong. Fix this by checking the sender address instead of the destination address.

2009-08-14mac80211: stay authenticated after disassocJohannes Berg
After being disassociated by the AP, mac80211 currently reports this to cfg80211, and then goes to delete the association. That's fine, but cfg80211 assumes that it's still authenticated, however, mac80211 throws away all state. This fixes mac80211 to keep track of the authentication in that case so that cfg80211 can request a deauth or new association properly.

Mesh is currently disabled on mac80211, its marked as broken. This patch gets it to compile though, to account for the mac80211 workqueue changes. There was a simple typo in the patches for mesh for the workqueue migration, but we never compile tested it as we couldn't even select mesh as its broken.

2009-08-12Use correct NET_RX_* returns for atalk_rcv()Mark Smith
In all rx'd SKB cases, atalk_rcv() either eventually jumps to or falls through to the label out:, which returns numeric 0. Numeric 0 corresponds to NET_RX_SUCCESS, which is incorrect in failed SKB cases. This patch makes atalk_rcv() provide the correct returns by: o explicitly returning NET_RX_SUCCESS in the two success cases o having the out: label return NET_RX_DROP, instead of numeric 0 o making the failed SKB labels and processing more consistent with other _rcv() routines in the kernel, simplifying validation and removing a backwards goto Signed-off-by: Mark Smith <markzzzsmith@yahoo.com.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-08-06net: Avoid enqueuing skb for default qdiscsKrishna Kumar
dev_queue_xmit enqueue's a skb and calls qdisc_run which dequeue's the skb and xmits it. In most cases, the skb that is enqueue'd is the same one that is dequeue'd (unless the queue gets stopped or multiple cpu's write to the same queue and ends in a race with qdisc_run). For default qdiscs, we can remove the redundant enqueue/dequeue and simply xmit the skb since the default qdisc is work-conserving. The patch uses a new flag - TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS to identify the default fast queue. The controversial part of the patch is incrementing qlen when a skb is requeued - this is to avoid checks like the second line below: + } else if ((q->flags & TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS) && !qdisc_qlen(q) && >> !q->gso_skb && + !test_and_set_bit(__QDISC_STATE_RUNNING, &q->state)) { Results of a 2 hour testing for multiple netperf sessions (1, 2, 4, 8, 12 sessions on a 4 cpu system-X).

This is a side-effect of: dev_unicast_init(dev); in alloc_netdev_mq() making use of dev->addr_list_lock. The device has just been allocated freshly, it's not accessible anywhere yet so no locking is needed at all - in fact it's wrong to lock it here (the lock isnt initialized yet).

2009-08-04mac80211: FIF_PSPOLL filter flagIgor Perminov
When an interface is configured in the AP mode, the mac80211 implementation doesn't inform the driver to receive PS Poll frames. It leads to inability to communicate with power-saving stations reliably. The FIF_CONTROL flag isn't passed by mac80211 to ieee80211_ops.configure_filter when an interface is in the AP mode. And it's ok, because we don't want to receive ACK frames and other control ones, but only PS Poll ones. This patch introduces the FIF_PSPOLL filter flag in addition to FIF_CONTROL, which means for the driver "pass PS Poll frames". This flag is passed to the driver: A) When an interface is configured in the AP mode. B) In all cases, when the FIF_CONTROL flag was passed earlier (in addition to it).

2009-08-04cfg80211: clear SSID on disconnect/no connectionJohannes Berg
The SME state machine in cfg80211 uses the SSID stored in struct wireless_dev internally, but fails to clear it in multiple places (when giving up on a connection attempt and when disconnecting). This doesn't matter to the SME state machine, but does matter for IBSS. Thus, in those cases, clear the SSID to avoid messing up the IBSS state machine.

2009-08-04rfkill: add the GPS radio typeTomas Winkler
Althoug GPS is a technology w/o transmitting radio and thus not a primary candidate for rfkill switch, rfkill gives unified interface point for devices with wireless technology. The input key is not supplied as it is too be deprecated.

2009-08-04mac80211: Increase timeouts for station pollingMaxim Levitsky

2009-08-04cfg80211: lower dynamic PS timeout to 100msJohannes Berg
The default of 500ms is pretty high, and leads to the device being awake at least 50% of the time under such light traffic conditions as a simple 1 second interval ping. Reduce to just 100ms -- it should have a similar effect while providing a better sleep time.
