This adds dump support to testmode. The testmode dump support in nl80211 requires using two of the six cb->args, the rest can be used by the driver to figure out where the dump position is at or to store other data across invocations.

Earlier beacon_interval is used to hold interval value and some flags (ATH9K_BEACON_ENA &ATH9K_BEACON_PERIOD). So to extract interval ATH9K_BEACON_PERIOD is used. Those flags were completely removed. So masking beacon_interval is not required. Signed-off-by: Rajkumar Manoharan <rmanoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

EDMA based chips (AR9380+) have 8 Tx FIFO slots, which are used to fix the tx queue start/stop race conditions which have to be worked around for earlier chips by keeping the last descriptor in the queue. The current code stores all frames that do not fit onto the 8 FIFO slots in a separate list. Whenever a FIFO slot is freed up, the next frame (or A-MPDU) from the pending queue gets moved to that slot. This process is not only inefficient, but also unnecessary. The code can be improved visibly by keeping the pending queue fully linked, and moving the contents of the entire queue to a FIFO slot as it becomes available. This patch makes the necessary changes for that and also merges some code that was duplicated for EDMA vs non-EDMA. It changes txq->axq_link to point to the last descriptor instead of the link pointer, so that ath9k_hw_set_desc_link can be used, which works on all chips. With this patch, a small performance increase for non-aggregated traffic was observed on AR9380 based embedded hardware. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

This patch adds to mac80211_hwsim the capability to send traffic via userspace. Frame exchange between kernel and user spaces is done through generic netlink communication protocol. A new generic netlink family MAC80211_HWSIM is proposed, this family contains three basic commands HWSIM_CMD_REGISTER, which is the command used to register a new traffic listener, HWSIM_CMD_FRAME, to exchange the frames from kernel to user and vice-versa, and HWSIM_CMD_TX_INFO_FRAME which returns from user all the information about retransmissions, rates, rx signal, and so on. How it works: Once the driver is loaded the MAC80211_HWSIM family will be registered. In the absence of userspace daemon, the driver itselfs implements a perfect wireless medium as it did in the past. When a daemon sends a HWSIM_CMD_REGISTER command, the module stores the application PID, and from this moment all frames will be sent to the registered daemon. The user space application will be in charge of process/forward all frames broadcast by any mac80211_hwsim radio. If the user application is stopped, the kernel module will detect the release of the socket and it will switch back to in-kernel perfect channel simulation. The userspace daemon must be waiting for incoming HWSIM_CMD_FRAME commands sent from kernel, for each HWSIM_CMD_FRAME command the application will try to broadcast this frame to all mac80211_hwsim radios, however the application may decide to forward/drop this frame. In the case of forwarding the frame, a new HWSIM_CMD_FRAME command will be created, all necessary attributes will be populated and the frame will be sent back to the kernel. Also after the frame broadcast phase, a HWSIM_CMD_TX_INFO_FRAME command will be sent from userspace to kernel, this command contains all the information regarding the transmission, such as number of tries, rates, ack signal, etc. You can find the actual implementation of wireless mediumd daemon (wmediumd) at: * Last version tarball: https://github.com/jlopex/cozybit/tarball/master * Or visiting my github tree: https://github.com/jlopex/cozybit/treeSigned-off-by: Javier Lopez <jlopex@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Ingo Molnar noticed that we have this unnecessary ratelimit.h dependency in linux/net.h, which hid compilation problems from people doing builds only with CONFIG_NET enabled. Move this stuff out to a seperate net/net_ratelimit.h file and include that in the only two places where this thing is needed. Signed-off-by: David S.

Several crashes in cleanup_once() were reported in recent kernels. Commit d6cc1d64 (inetpeer: various changes) added a race in unlink_from_unused(). One way to avoid taking unused_peers.lock before doing the list_empty() test is to catch 0->1 refcnt transitions, using full barrier atomic operations variants (atomic_cmpxchg() and atomic_inc_return()) instead of previous atomic_inc() and atomic_add_unless() variants. We then call unlink_from_unused() only for the owner of the 0->1 transition. Add a new atomic_add_unless_return() static helper With help from Arun Sharma.
