wifi: mac80211: split mesh fast tx cache into local/proxied/forwarded

2024-04-17T07:21:32Z

Depending on the origin of the packets (and their SA), 802.11 + mesh headers could be filled in differently. In order to properly deal with that, add a new field to the lookup key, indicating the type (local, proxied or forwarded). This can fix spurious packet drop issues that depend on the order in which nodes/hosts communicate with each other.

wifi: mac80211: enable EHT mesh support

2023-03-31T09:09:59Z

Similar to AP beacon, this enables the basic mesh EHT mode, including EHT operation IE and the fixed field of EHT operation information IE. As for the optional part (i.e. preamble puncturing bitmap) will be added in future patch.

wifi: mac80211: mesh fast xmit support

2023-03-22T12:31:18Z

Previously, fast xmit only worked on interface types where initially a sta lookup is performed, and a cached header can be attached to the sta, requiring only some fields to be updated at runtime. This technique is not directly applicable for a mesh device type due to the dynamic nature of the topology and protocol. There are more addresses that need to be filled, and there is an extra header with a dynamic length based on the addressing mode. Change the code to cache entries contain a copy of the mesh subframe header + bridge tunnel header, as well as an embedded struct ieee80211_fast_tx, which contains the information for building the 802.11 header. Add a mesh specific early fast xmit call, which looks up a cached entry and adds only the mesh subframe header, before passing it over to the generic fast xmit code. To ensure the changes in network are reflected in these cached headers, flush affected cached entries on path changes, as well as other conditions that currently trigger a fast xmit check in other modes (key changes etc.) This code is loosely based on a previous implementation by: Sriram R Cc: Sriram R Signed-off-by: Ryder Lee Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230314095956.62085-4-nbd@nbd.name Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: mesh: embedd mesh_paths and mpp_paths into ieee80211_if_mesh

2022-01-04T14:11:49Z

Syzbot hit NULL deref in rhashtable_free_and_destroy(). The problem was in mesh_paths and mpp_paths being NULL. mesh_pathtbl_init() could fail in case of memory allocation failure, but nobody cared, since ieee80211_mesh_init_sdata() returns void. It led to leaving 2 pointers as NULL. Syzbot has found null deref on exit path, but it could happen anywhere else, because code assumes these pointers are valid. Since all ieee80211_*_setup_sdata functions are void and do not fail, let's embedd mesh_paths and mpp_paths into parent struct to avoid adding error handling on higher levels and follow the pattern of others setup_sdata functions Fixes: 60854fd94573 ("mac80211: mesh: convert path table to rhashtable") Reported-and-tested-by: syzbot+860268315ba86ea6b96b@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Pavel Skripkin Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211230195547.23977-1-paskripkin@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg
