mac80211: mesh: drop constant field mean_chain_len

2016-02-24T08:04:29Z

The mean_chain_len field in struct mesh_table is copied whenever a new mesh table is allocated, but only ever has the value 2 and is never otherwise updated, so just remove it and use the related define instead. Signed-off-by: Bob Copeland Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: Requeue work after scan complete for all VIF types.

2016-01-26T10:27:39Z

During a sw scan ieee80211_iface_work ignores work items for all vifs. However after the scan complete work is requeued only for STA, ADHOC and MESH iftypes. This occasionally results in event processing getting delayed/not processed for iftype AP when it coexists with a STA. This can result in data halt and eventually disconnection on the AP interface.

mac80211: make ieee80211_new_mesh_header return unsigned

2015-10-05T15:54:16Z

The function returns always non-negative values. The problem has been detected using proposed semantic patch scripts/coccinelle/tests/assign_signed_to_unsigned.cocci [1]. [1]: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/2046107 Signed-off-by: Andrzej Hajda Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: implement VHT support for mesh

2015-09-22T13:21:25Z

Implement the basics required for supporting very high throughput with mesh: include VHT information elements in beacons, probe responses, and peering action frames, and check for compatible VHT configurations when peering. Signed-off-by: Bob Copeland Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: implement cfg80211_ops to query mesh proxy path table

2014-10-09T09:19:07Z

Implement get_mpp and dump_mpp cfg80211_ops to export the content of the 802.11s mesh proxy path table to userspace. Signed-off-by: Henning Rogge Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: use put_unaligned_le in mesh when necessary

2013-11-25T19:51:55Z

Use put_unaligned_le16 and put_unaligned_le32 for mesh_path_error_tx and mesh_path_sel_frame_tx. Signed-off-by: Chun-Yeow Yeoh Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: remove unused mesh_mgmt_ies_add() prototype

2013-11-25T19:50:13Z

Said function was removed some time ago. Signed-off-by: Bob Copeland Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: update mesh beacon on workqueue

2013-06-18T13:57:27Z

Instead of updating the mesh beacon immediately when requested (which would require the sdata_lock()), defer it to the mac80211 workqueue. Fixes yet another deadlock on calling sta_info_flush() with the sdata_lock() held from ieee80211_stop_mesh(). We could just drop the sdata_lock() around the mesh_sta_cleanup() call, but this path is also taken from several non-locked error paths.

mac80211: expire mesh peers based on mesh configuration

2013-06-11T12:16:29Z

The time it takes to see the peer link expire may differ by a minute since sta_expire() is run once a minute as a mesh housekeeping task. Signed-off-by: Colleen Twitty Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg
