* mac80211: fix TX aggregation stop raceAlexander Wetzel2018-05-181-23/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The mac80211 tear down code is not waiting for the driver call back. This can bring down the the TX path (TID) till the user manually reconnects. (Observed with iwldvm and enabled TX aggregation.) The race can be prevented when the ampdu_mlme worker handles the tear down. The race: * ieee80211_sta_tear_down_BA_sessions calls ___ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_session for all TIDs, * then cancels the ampdu_mlme worker * and cleanups the TIDs the driver already has called back for. * ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb will never be called for a TID if the callback came after the the check in ieee80211_sta_tear_down_BA_sessions.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due to overlap between commit 1281103770e9 ("mac80211: Simplify locking in ieee80211_sta_tear_down_BA_sessions()") and the way that Luca modified commit 72e2c3438ba3 ("mac80211: tear down RX aggregations first") when sending it upstream from Intel's internal tree, we get the following warning: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5472 at net/mac80211/agg-tx.c:315 ___ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_session+0x158/0x1f0 since there's no appropriate locking around the call to ___ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_session; Sara's original just had a call to the locked __ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_session (one less underscore) but it looks like Luca modified both of the calls when fixing it up for upstream, leading to the problem at hand.

* mac80211: fix deadlock in driver-managed RX BA session startJohannes Berg2017-09-061-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an RX BA session is started by the driver, and it has to tell mac80211 about it, the corresponding bit in tid_rx_manage_offl gets set and the BA session work is scheduled. Upon testing this bit, it will call __ieee80211_start_rx_ba_session(), thus deadlocking as it already holds the ampdu_mlme.mtx, which that acquires again. Fix this by adding ___ieee80211_start_rx_ba_session(), a version of the function that requires the mutex already held.

* mac80211: Complete ampdu work schedule during session tear downIlan peer2017-09-061-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 7a7c0a6438b8 ("mac80211: fix TX aggregation start/stop callback race") added a cancellation of the ampdu work after the loop that stopped the Tx and Rx BA sessions. However, in some cases, e.g., during HW reconfig, the low level driver might call mac80211 APIs to complete the stopping of the BA sessions, which would queue the ampdu work to handle the actual completion. This work needs to be performed as otherwise mac80211 data structures would not be properly synced. Fix this by checking if BA session STOP_CB bit is set after the BA session cancellation and properly clean the session.

* networking: make skb_put & friends return void pointersJohannes Berg2017-06-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *, and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not. Make these functions (skb_put, __skb_put and pskb_put) return void * and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the following spatch: @@ expression SKB, LEN; typedef u8; identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put }; @@ - *(fn(SKB, LEN)) + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN) @@ expression E, SKB, LEN; identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put }; type T; @@ - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN))) + E = fn(SKB, LEN) which actually doesn't cover pskb_put since there are only three users overall. A handful of stragglers were converted manually, notably a macro in drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_bsdcomp.c and, oddly enough, one of the many instances in net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c.

* mac80211: manage RX BA session offload without SKB queueJohannes Berg2017-06-081-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of using the SKB queue with the fake pkt_type for the offloaded RX BA session management, also handle this with the normal aggregation state machine worker. This also makes the use of this more reliable since it gets rid of the allocation of the fake skb.

* mac80211: fix TX aggregation start/stop callback raceJohannes Berg2017-05-301-4/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When starting or stopping an aggregation session, one of the steps is that the driver calls back to mac80211 that the start/stop can proceed. This is handled by queueing up a fake SKB and processing it from the normal iface/sdata work. Since this isn't flushed when disassociating, the following race is possible: * associate * start aggregation session * driver callback * disassociate * associate again to the same AP * callback processing runs, leading to a WARN_ON() that the TID hadn't requested aggregation If the second association isn't to the same AP, there would only be a message printed ("Could not find station: <addr>"), but the same race could happen. Fix this by not going the whole detour with a fake SKB etc. but simply looking up the aggregation session in the driver callback, marking it with a START_CB/STOP_CB bit and then scheduling the regular aggregation work that will now process these bits as well. This also simplifies the code and gets rid of the whole problem with allocation failures of said skb, which could have left the session in limbo.

In the discussion [1] about this patch, Johannes recalled that it fixed some races with the DELBA and indeed this behavior was introduced in [2]. While [2] is right for the BARs, the part queueing the {ADD,DEL}BAs on their BA params TID AC violates the spec and is more a workaround for some drivers. Helmut expressed some concerns wrt such drivers, in particular DELBAs in rt2x00. ATM, DELBAs are sent after a driver has called (hence "purposely") ieee80211_start_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe and Johannes and Emmanuel gave some details wrt intentions behind the split of the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_STOP_* given to the driver ampdu_action supposed to call this function, which could prove handy to people trying to do the right thing in faulty drivers (if their fw/hw don't get in their way).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* mac80211: fix HT capability overrides for AP stationJohannes Berg2013-03-061-23/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | HT capabilites are asymmetric -- e.g. beamforming is both an RX and TX capability. If, for example, we support RX but not TX, the RX capability of the AP station is masked out (if it supports it). This works correctly if it's really the driver capability. If, on the other hand, the reason for not supporting TX BF is that it was removed by HT capability overrides then the wrong thing happens: the AP's TX capability will be removed rather than its RX capability, because the override function works on own capabilities, not remote ones, and doesn't take the asymmetry into account. To fix this make a copy of our own capabilities, apply the overrides to them (where needed) and then use that to set up the peer's capabilities. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Of course, make all drivers use it. To achieve this, make ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() get the station as an argument, rather than the new capabilities, so it can set up the new bandwidth field. If the station is a VHT station and VHT bandwidth is in use, also set the bandwidth accordingly. Doing this allows us to get rid of the supports_40mhz flag as the HT capabilities now reflect the true capability instead of the current setting. While at it, also fix ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() to not ignore HT cap overrides when MCS TX isn't supported (not that it really happens...)

* mac80211: set HT channel before associationJohannes Berg2012-04-101-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Changing the channel type during operation is confusing to some drivers and will be hard to handle in multi-channel scenarios. Instead of changing the channel, set it to the right HT channel before authenticating/associating and don't change it -- just update the 20/40 MHz restrictions in rate control as needed when changed by the AP. This also fixes a problem that Paul missed in his fix for the "regulatory makes us deaf" issue -- when we couldn't use 40 MHz we still associated saying we were using 40 MHz, which could in similarly broken APs make us never even connect successfully.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently BAR, ADDBA and DELBA frames are always sent using AC_VO. If the TID for which a BA session is established is assigned to a different queue BAR, ADDBA and DELBA frames can "overtake" frames of the according BA session. Hence, always put BA session related frames into the same queue as the BA sessions data frames. Signed-off-by: Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The HT mode is set by iw (previous patchsets). The interface is set into the specified HT mode. HT mode and capabilities are announced in beacons. If we add a station that uses HT also, the fastest matching HT mode will be used for transmission. That means if we are using HT40+ and we add a station running on HT40-, we would transfer at HT20. If we join an IBSS with HT40, but the secondary channel is not available, we will fall back into HT20 as well. Allow frame aggregation to start in IBSS mode.
