mac80211: fix cleanup if driver suspend callback fails

2012-06-20T15:39:51Z

In case the driver suspend callback fails, mac80211 is left with stopped queues which prevents any further traffic as well as all STAs are left marked with WLAN_STA_BLOCK_BA which will cause any further ADDBA requests to be declined. Fix it by undoing both before returning from __iee80211_suspend. Reported-by: Vitaly Wool Signed-off-by: Eyal Shapira Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: Clear wowlan flag when drv_suspend returns failure

2012-06-06T19:20:22Z

drv_resume can get called without a prior call to drv_suspend. Consider the following steps: 1. Suspend is started but driver's drv_suspend returns error. 2. Suspend is aborted. local->wowlan flag is left set. 3. Interface is removed. 4. Suspend again. This time open_count is 0 so drv_suspend is not called and local->wowlan not cleared. 5. On resume ieee80211_reconfig will call drv_resume since local->wowlan is set. Signed-off-by: Pontus Fuchs Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: add explicit monitor interface if needed

2012-04-11T20:23:49Z

The queue mapping redesign that I'm planning to do will break pure injection unless we handle monitor interfaces explicitly. One possible option would be to have the driver tell mac80211 about monitor mode queues etc., but that would duplicate the API since we already need to have queue assignments handled per virtual interface. So in order to solve this, have a virtual monitor interface that is added whenever all active vifs are monitors. We could also use the state of one of the monitor interfaces, but managing that would be complicated, so allocate separate state. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: use proper sub_if_data on suspend path

Use interface data from sta instead of invalid pointer to list head in calls to drv_sta_state. Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski Reviewed-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: implement sta_add/sta_remove in sta_state

2012-02-06T19:48:25Z

Instead of maintaining separate sta_add/sta_remove callsites, implement it in sta_state when the driver has no sta_state implementation. The only behavioural change this should cause is in secure mesh mode: with this the station entries will only be created after the stations are set to AUTH. Given which drivers support mesh, this seems to not be a problem. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: add sta_state callback

2012-02-06T19:48:24Z

(based on Eliad's patch) Add a callback to notify the low-level driver whenever the state of a station changes. The driver is only notified when the station is actually in the mac80211 hash table, not for pre-insert state transitions. To allow the driver to replace sta_add/remove calls with this, call extra transitions with the NOTEXIST state. This callback can fail, so we need to be careful in handling it when a station is inserted, particularly in the IBSS case where we still keep the station entry around for mac80211 purposes.

mac80211: simplify AP_VLAN handling

2012-02-06T19:48:24Z

Setting keys and updating TKIP keys must use the BSS sdata (not AP_VLAN), so we translate. Move the translation into driver-ops wrappers instead of having it inline in the code to simplify the normal code flow. The same can be done for sta_add/remove which already does the translation in the wrapper. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: verify virtual interfaces in driver API

2011-11-09T21:01:02Z

The driver is never informed about monitor or AP_VLAN interfaces, so whenever we pass those to it later this is a bug. Verify we don't as there are some cases where this could happen. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: optimise station flags

2011-09-30T19:57:19Z

The flaglock in struct sta_info has long been something that I wanted to get rid of, this finally does the conversion to atomic bitops. The conversion itself is straight-forward in most places, a few things needed to change a bit since we can no longer use multiple bits at the same time. On x86-64, this is a fairly significant code size reduction: text data bss dec hex 427861 23648 1008 452517 6e7a5 before 425383 23648 976 450007 6ddd7 after Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.

mac80211: be more careful in suspend/resume

2011-07-15T17:39:42Z

When suspending with all netdevs down, the device is stopped but we still call a number of driver callbacks that the driver might not expect. The same happens during resume, we might call a few callbacks without starting the driver. Fix this by checking open_count around more things and exiting quickly if it is 0. Also, while at this I noticed that the coverage class isn't reprogrammed after resume, so add that. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville
