Luciano Coelho b6a550156b cfg80211/mac80211: move more combination checks to mac80211
Get rid of the cfg80211_can_add_interface() and
cfg80211_can_change_interface() functions by moving that functionality
to mac80211.  With this patch all interface combination checks are now
out of cfg80211 (except for the channel switch case which will be
addressed in a future commit).

Additionally, modify the ieee80211_check_combinations() function so
that an undefined chandef can be passed, in order to use it before a
channel is defined.

Monam Agarwal 0c2bef4621 mac80211: use RCU_INIT_POINTER
rcu_assign_pointer() ensures that the initialization of a structure is
carried out before storing a pointer to that structure. However, in the
case that NULL is assigned there's no structure to initialize so using
RCU_INIT_POINTER instead is safe and more efficient.

Daniel Borkmann 99932d4fc0 netdevice: add queue selection fallback handler for ndo_select_queue
Add a new argument for ndo_select_queue() callback that passes a
fallback handler. This gets invoked through netdev_pick_tx();
fallback handler is currently __netdev_pick_tx() as most drivers
invoke this function within their customized implementation in
case for skbs that don't need any special handling. This fallback
handler can then be replaced on other call-sites with different
queue selection methods (e.g. in packet sockets, pktgen etc).

This also has the nice side-effect that __netdev_pick_tx() is
then only invoked from netdev_pick_tx() and export of that
function to modules can be undone.

Jason Wang f663dd9aaf net: core: explicitly select a txq before doing l2 forwarding
Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The
will cause several issues:

- NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan
  instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for
  lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or
  control path.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device
  watchdog.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash
  when tso is disabled for lower device.

Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just
selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also
extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2
forwarding transmission.

With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need
to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep
a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of
dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission.

In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it
provides a necessary synchronization method.

Johannes Berg 34a3740d6b mac80211: fix iflist_mtx/mtx locking in radar detection
The scan code creates an iflist_mtx -> mtx locking dependency,
and a few other places, notably radar detection, were creating
the opposite dependency, causing lockdep to complain. As scan
and radar detection are mutually exclusive, the deadlock can't
really happen in practice, but it's still bad form.

A similar issue exists in the monitor mode code, but this is
only used by channel-context drivers right now and those have
to have hardware scan, so that also can't happen.

Still, fix these issues by making some of the channel context
code require the mtx to be held rather than acquiring it, thus
allowing the monitor/radar callers to keep the iflist_mtx->mtx
lock ordering.

While at it, also fix access to the local->scanning variable
in the radar code, and document that radar_detect_enabled is
now properly protected by the mtx.

All this would now introduce an ABBA deadlock between the DFS
work cancelling and local->mtx, so change the locking there a
bit to not need to use cancel_delayed_work_sync() but be able
to just use cancel_delayed_work(). The work is also safely
stopped/removed when the interface is stopped, so no extra
changes are needed.

The radar detection code changed a few times, and due to
the changes some iflist_mtx locking stayed in that isn't
actually necessary - remove it.

One version of the code needed it because an AP interface's
VLAN list was changed to use this, but then we moved the
list handling outside of the chanctx handling and thus the
locking was no longer needed.

If we can assume that stations are never referenced by the

Emmanuel Grumbach 687da13223 mac80211: implement SMPS for AP
When the driver requests to move to STATIC or DYNAMIC SMPS,
we send an action frame to each associated station and
reconfigure the channel context / driver.
Of course, non-MIMO stations are ignored.

The beacon isn't updated. The association response will
include the original capabilities. Stations that associate
while in non-OFF SMPS mode will get an action frame right
after association to inform them about our current state.
Note that we wait until the end of the EAPOL. Sending an
action frame before the EAPOL is finished can be an issue
for a few clients. Clients aren't likely to send EAPOL
frames in MIMO anyway.

When the SMPS configuration gets more permissive (e.g.
STATIC -> OFF), we don't wake up stations that are asleep
We remember that they don't know about the change and send
the action frame when they wake up.

When the SMPS configuration gets more restrictive (e.g.
OFF -> STATIC), we set the TIM bit for every sleeping STA.
uAPSD stations might send MIMO until they poll the action
frame, but this is for a short period of time.

Johannes Berg a986553877 mac80211: fix change_interface queue assignments
Jouni reported that with mac80211_hwsim, multicast TX was causing
crashes due to invalid vif->cab_queue assignment. It turns out that
this is caused by change_interface() getting invoked and not having
the vif->type/vif->p2p assigned correctly before calling the queue
check (ieee80211_check_queues). Fix this by passing the 'external'
interface type to the function and adjusting it accordingly.

While at it, also fix the error path in change_interface, it wasn't
correctly resetting to the external type but using the internal one
instead.

Fortunately this affects on hwsim because all other drivers set the
vif->type/vif->p2p variables when changing iftype. This shouldn't
be needed, but almost all implementations actually do it for their
own internal handling.

When changing the MAC address of a single vif mac80211 will check if
the new address fits into the address mask specified by the driver.
This only needs to be done when using multiple BSSIDs. Hence, check
the new address only against all other vifs.

Also fix the MAC address assignment on new interfaces if the user
changed the address of a vif such that perm_addr is not covered by
addr_mask anymore.

Johannes Berg c8aa22db01 mac80211: close AP_VLAN interfaces before unregistering all
Since Eric's commit efe117ab8 ("Speedup ieee80211_remove_interfaces")
there's a bug in mac80211 when it unregisters with AP_VLAN interfaces
up. If the AP_VLAN interface was registered after the AP it belongs
to (which is the typical case) and then we get into this code path,
unregister_netdevice_many() will crash because it isn't prepared to
deal with interfaces being closed in the middle of it. Exactly this
happens though, because we iterate the list, find the AP master this
AP_VLAN belongs to and dev_close() the dependent VLANs. After this,
unregister_netdevice_many() won't pick up the fact that the AP_VLAN
is already down and will do it again, causing a crash.

A lot of code in mac80211 assumes that the hw queues are
set up correctly for all interfaces (except for monitor)
but this isn't true for AP_VLAN interfaces. Fix this by
copying the AP master configuration when an AP VLAN is
brought up, after this the AP interface can't change its

change it, which also forces AP_VLAN interfaces down, so
just copying in open() is sufficient.

Johannes Berg 2b436312f0 mac80211: fix queue handling crash
The code I added in "mac80211: don't start new netdev queues
if driver stopped" crashes for monitor and AP VLAN interfaces
because while they have a netdev, they don't have queues set
up by the driver.

To fix the crash, exclude these from queue accounting here
and just start their netdev queues unconditionally.

For monitor, this is the best we can do, as we can redirect
frames there to any other interface and don't know which one
that will since it can be different for each frame.

For AP VLAN interfaces, we can do better later and actually
properly track the queue status. Not doing this is really a
separate bug though.

When a device is unplugged while suspended, mac80211 is
de-initialized and all interfaces are removed while no

Fix this by reordering the do_stop code to not call the
driver when it is suspended, i.e. when there's no state
in the driver anyway.

The previous patches removed a few corner cases in ROC
and virtual monitor interfaces so that now this is safe

Johannes Berg 8d1f7ecd2a mac80211: defer tailroom counter manipulation when roaming
During roaming, the crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt counter
will often take values 2,1,0,1,2 because first keys are
removed and then new keys are added. This is inefficient
because during the 0->1 transition, synchronize_net must
be called to avoid packet races, although typically no
packets would be flowing during that time.

To avoid that, defer the decrement (2->1, 1->0) when keys
are removed (by half a second). This means the counter
will really have the values 2,2,2,3,4 ... 2, thus never
reaching 0 and having to do the 0->1 transition.

Note that this patch entirely disregards the drivers for
which this optimisation was done to start with, for them
the key removal itself will be expensive because it has
to synchronize_net() after the counter is incremented to
remove the key from HW crypto. For them the sequence will
look like this: 0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0 (*) which is clearly a
lot more inefficient. This could be addressed separately,
during key removal the 0->1->0 sequence isn't necessary.

(*) it starts at 0 because HW crypto is on, then goes to
    1 when HW crypto is disabled for a key, then back to
    0 because the key is deleted; this happens for both
    keys in the example. When new keys are added, it goes
    to 1 first because they're added in software; when a
    key is moved to hardware it goes back to 0

Johannes Berg 97f97b1f5f mac80211: fix station destruction in AP/mesh modes
Unfortunately, commit b22cfcfcae, intended to speed up roaming
by avoiding the synchronize_rcu() broke AP/mesh modes as it moved
some code into that work item that will still call into the driver
at a time where it's no longer expected to handle this: after the
AP or mesh has been stopped.

To fix this problem remove the per-station work struct, maintain a
station cleanup list instead and flush this list when stations are
flushed. To keep this patch smaller for stable, do this when the
stations are flushed (sta_info_flush()). This unfortunately brings
back the original roaming delay; I'll fix that again in a separate
patch.

Also, Ben reported that the original commit could sometimes (with
many interfaces) cause long delays when an interface is set down,
due to blocking on flush_workqueue(). Since we now maintain the
cleanup list, this particular change of the original patch can be
reverted.

Johannes Berg 0b7dff4fae mac80211: cancel work instead of waiting for it to do nothing
If the sdata work is pending while the interface is stopped,
we currently flush it. If it's not running this means waiting
for it to run, which could take a while if the workqueue is
backlogged. However, the work exits right away if it starts
to run while the interface is already stopping. There's no
point in waiting for that, so use cancel_work_sync() instead.

Johannes Berg 4bf88530be mac80211: convert to channel definition struct
Convert mac80211 (and where necessary, some drivers a
little bit) to the new channel definition struct.

This will allow extending mac80211 for VHT, which is
currently restricted to channel contexts since there
are no drivers using that which makes it easier. As
I also don't care about VHT for drivers not using the
channel context API, I won't convert the previous API

Johannes Berg 1ea6f9c0d4 mac80211: handle TX power per virtual interface
Even before channel contexts/multi-channel, having a
single global TX power limit was already problematic,
in particular if two managed interfaces connected to
two APs with different power constraints. The channel
context introduction completely broke this though and
in fact I had disabled TX power configuration there
for drivers using channel contexts.

Change everything to track TX power per interface so
that different user settings and different channel
maxima are treated correctly. Also continue tracking
the global TX power though for compatibility with
applications that attempt to configure the wiphy's
TX power globally.

Marco Porsch d012a60510 mac80211: make client powersave independent of interface type
This patch prepares mac80211 for a later implementation of mesh or
ad-hoc powersave clients.
The structures related to powersave (buffer, TIM map, counters) are
moved from the AP-specific interface structure to a generic structure
that can be embedded into any interface type.
The functions related to powersave are prepared to allow easy
extension with different interface types. For example with:

+ } else if (sta->sdata->vif.type == NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT) {
+         ps = &sdata->u.mesh.ps;

Some references to the AP's beacon structure are removed where they
were obviously not used.

The patch compiles without warning and has been briefly tested as AP
interface with one client in PS mode.

Johannes Berg 04ecd2578e mac80211: track needed RX chains for channel contexts
On each channel that the device is operating on, it
may need to listen using one or more chains depending
on the SMPS settings of the interfaces using it. The
previous channel context changes completely removed
this ability (before, it was available as the SMPS
mode).

Add per-context tracking of the required static and
dynamic RX chains and notify the driver on changes.
To achieve this, track the chains and SMPS mode used
on each virtual interface and update the channel
context whenever this changes.

Johannes Berg 55de908ab2 mac80211: use channel contexts
Instead of operating on a single channel only,
use the new channel context infrastructure in
all mac80211 code.

This enables drivers that want to use the new
channel context infrastructure to use multiple
channels, while nothing should change for all
the other drivers that don't support it.

Right now this disables both TX power settings
and spatial multiplexing powersave. Both need
to be re-enabled on a channel context basis.

Additionally, when channel contexts are used
drop the connection when channel switch is
received rather than trying to handle it. This
will have to be improved later.

mac80211 calls synchronize_rcu() on sta deletion,
which increase the roaming time significantly.

Convert it into a call_rcu() mechanism, in order

callback a new work that will do the actual cleanup.

In order to make sure the cleanup occurs before
the interface went down, flush local->workqueue

Johannes Berg 98104fdeda cfg80211: add P2P Device abstraction
In order to support using a different MAC address
for the P2P Device address we must first have a
P2P Device abstraction that can be assigned a MAC
address.

This abstraction will also be useful to support
offloading P2P operations to the device, e.g.
periodic listen for discoverability.

Currently, the driver is responsible for assigning
a MAC address to the P2P Device, but this could be
changed by allowing a MAC address to be given to
the NEW_INTERFACE command.

As it has no associated netdev, a P2P Device can
only be identified by its wdev identifier but the
previous patches allowed using the wdev identifier
in various APIs, e.g. remain-on-channel.
