      mac80211: mesh: flush paths outside of plink lock · e596af82
      Bob Copeland authored
      Lockdep warned of a lock dependency between the mesh_plink lock
      and the internal lock for the rhashtable.  The problem is that
      the rhashtable code uses a spin lock with softirqs enabled, while
      mesh_plink_timer executes a walk (to flush paths on a state change)
      inside a softirq with the plink lock held.
      
      This leads to the following deadlock if the timer fires while rht
      lock is held on this CPU, and plink lock is held on another CPU:
      
         CPU0                         CPU1
         ----                         ----
         lock(&(&ht->lock)->rlock);
                                      local_irq_disable();
                                      lock(&(&sta->mesh->plink_lock)->rlock);
                                      lock(&(&ht->lock)->rlock);
         <Interrupt>
         lock(&(&sta->mesh->plink_lock)->rlock);
         *** DEADLOCK ***
      
      Fix by waiting until we drop the plink lock to flush paths.

      mac80211: mesh: fix cleanup for mesh pathtable · 0371a08f
      Bob Copeland authored
      The mesh path table needs to be around for the entire time the
      interface is in mesh mode, as users can perform an mpath dump
      at any time.  The existing path table lifetime is instead tied
      to the mesh BSS which can cause crashes when different MBSSes
      are joined in the context of a single interface, or when the
      path table is dumped when no MBSS is joined.
      
      Introduce a new function to perform the final teardown of the
      interface and perform path table cleanup there.  We already
      free the individual path elements when the leaving the mesh
      so no additional cleanup is needed there.  This fixes the
      following crash:

      Several of the mesh path fields are undocumented and some
      of the documentation is no longer correct or relevant after
      the switch to rhashtable.  Clean up the kernel doc
      accordingly and reorder some fields to match the structure
      layout.

      Bob Copeland authored
      Since we have converted the mesh path tables to rhashtable, we are
      no longer swapping out the entire mesh_pathtbl pointer with RCU.
      As a result, we no longer need indirection to the hlist head for
      the gates list and can simply embed it, saving a pair of
      pointer-sized allocations.

      mac80211: mesh: use hlist for rmc cache · 47a0489c
      Bob Copeland authored
      The RMC cache has 256 list heads plus a u32, which puts it at the
      unfortunate size of 4104 bytes with padding.  kmalloc() will then
      round this up to the next power-of-two, so we wind up actually
      using two pages here where most of the second is wasted.
      
      Switch to hlist heads here to reduce the structure size down to
      fit within a page.

      mac80211: mesh: handle failed alloc for rmc cache · 0aa7fabb
      Bob Copeland authored
      In the unlikely case that mesh_rmc_init() fails with -ENOMEM,
      the rmc pointer will be left as NULL but the interface is still
      operational because ieee80211_mesh_init_sdata() is not allowed
      to fail.
      
      If this happens, we would blindly dereference rmc when checking
      whether a multicast frame is in the cache.  Instead just drop the
      frames in the forwarding path.

      mac80211: mesh: fix crash in mesh_path_timer · 74932959
      Bob Copeland authored
      The mesh_path_reclaim() function, called from an rcu callback, cancels
      the mesh_path_timer associated with a mesh path.  Unfortunately, this
      call can happen much later, perhaps after the hash table itself is
      destroyed.
      
      Such a situation led to the following crash in mesh_path_send_to_gates()
      when dereferencing the tbl pointer:

      cfg80211: allow userspace to specify client P2P PS support · 17b94247

      Legacy clients don't support P2P power save mechanisms, and thus
      if a P2P GO has a legacy client connected to it, it has to make
      some changes in the PS behavior.
      
      To handle this, add an attribute to specify whether a station supports
      P2P PS or not. If the attribute was not specified cfg80211 will assume
      that station supports it for P2P GO interface, and does NOT support it
      for AP interface, matching the current assumptions in the code.

      mac80211: minstrel_ht: improve sample rate skip logic · 06171e9c
      Felix Fietkau authored
      There were a few issues that were slowing down the process of finding
      the optimal rate, especially on devices with multi-rate retry
      limitations:
      
      When max_tp_rate[0] was slower than max_tp_rate[1], the code did not
      sample max_tp_rate[1], which would often allow it to switch places with
      max_tp_rate[0] (e.g. if only the first sampling attempts were bad, but the
      rate is otherwise good).
      
      Also, sample attempts of rates between max_tp_rate[0] and [1] were being
      ignored in this case, because the code only checked if the rate was
      slower than [1].
      
      Fix this by checking against the fastest / second fastest max_tp_rate
      instead of assuming a specific order between the two.
      
      In my tests this patch significantly reduces the time until minstrel_ht
      finds the optimal rate right after assoc

      mac80211: synchronize driver rx queues before removing a station · f59374eb
      Sara Sharon authored
      Some devices, like iwlwifi, have RSS queues. This may cause a
      situation where a disassociation is handled in control path and
      results in station removal while there are prior RX frames
      that were still not processed in other queues. When they will
      be processed the station will be gone, and the frames will be
      dropped.
      Add a synchronization interface to avoid that. When driver returns
      from the synchronization mac80211 may remove the station.

      mac80211: mesh: embed known gates list in struct mesh_path · 947c2a0e
      Bob Copeland authored
      The mesh path table uses a struct mesh_node in its hlists in
      order to support a resizable hash table: the mesh_node provides
      an indirection to the actual mesh path so that two different
      bucket lists can point to the same path entry.
      
      However, for the known gates list, we don't need this indirection
      because there is ever only one list.  So we can just embed the
      hlist_node in the mesh path itself, which simplifies things a bit
      and saves a linear search whenever we need to find an item in
      the list.

      This allows scans for a specific BSSID to be optimized by the user space
      application by requesting the driver to set the Probe Request frame
      BSSID field (Address 3) to the specified BSSID instead of the wildcard
      BSSID. This prevents other APs from replying which reduces airtime need
      and latency in getting the response from the target AP through.
      
      This is an optimization and as such, it is acceptable for some of the
      drivers not to support the mechanism. If not supported, the wildcard
      BSSID will be used and more responses may be received.
