treewide, timers: Rename from_timer() to timer_container_of()

2025-06-08T07:07:37Z

Move this API to the canonical timer_*() namespace. [ tglx: Redone against pre rc1 ] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/aB2X0jCKQO56WdMt@gmail.com

treewide: Switch/rename to timer_delete[_sync]()

2025-04-05T08:30:12Z

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree over and remove the historical wrapper inlines. Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

wifi: mac80211: aggregation: remove deflink accesses for MLO

2025-02-11T10:59:08Z

If a station has connected with MLO (as indicated by valid_links being non-zero, even if that may have just a single bit set), it necessarily supports EHT/aggregation, so we don't need to check the deflink for those cases. Add conditions so we can support removing the link it/we used to associate on. Note that we still use the statistics in the deflink, but that's a whole different story we will need to address separately.

wifi: mac80211: Support EHT 1024 aggregation size in TX

2024-11-12T12:41:45Z

Support EHT 1024 aggregation size in TX The 1024 agg size for RX is supported but not for TX. This patch adds this support and refactors common parsing logics for addbaext in both process_addba_resp and process_addba_req into a function.

wifi: mac80211: fix NULL dereference at band check in starting tx ba session

2024-06-26T08:44:00Z

In MLD connection, link_data/link_conf are dynamically allocated. They don't point to vif->bss_conf. So, there will be no chanreq assigned to vif->bss_conf and then the chan will be NULL. Tweak the code to check ht_supported/vht_supported/has_he/has_eht on sta deflink.

wifi: mac80211: introduce 'channel request'

2024-02-08T12:07:34Z

For channel contexts, mac80211 currently uses the cfg80211 chandef struct (control channel, center freq(s), width) to define towards drivers and internally how these behave. In fact, there are _two_ such structs used, where the min_def can reduce bandwidth according to the stations connected. Unfortunately, with EHT this is longer be sufficient, at least not for all hardware. EHT requires that non-AP STAs that are connected to an AP with a lower bandwidth than it (the AP) advertises (e.g. 160 MHz STA connected to 320 MHz AP) still be able to receive downlink OFDMA and respond to trigger frames for uplink OFDMA that specify the position and bandwidth for the non-AP STA relative to the channel the AP is using. Therefore, they need to be aware of this, and at least for some hardware (e.g. Intel) this awareness is in the hardware. As a result, use of the "same" channel may need to be split over two channel contexts where they differ by the AP being used. As a first step, introduce a concept of a channel request ('chanreq') for each interface, to control the context it requests. This step does nothing but reorganise the code, so that later the AP's chandef can be added to the request in order to handle the EHT case described above.
