mac80211: Export fq memory limit information in debugfs

2016-09-30T11:29:31Z

Add memory limit, usage and overlimit counter to per-PHY 'aqm' debugfs file. Signed-off-by: Toke Høiland-Jørgensen Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: allow driver to handle packet-loss mechanism

2016-09-15T14:46:20Z

Based on consecutive msdu failures, mac80211 triggers CQM packet-loss mechanism. Drivers like ath10k that have its own connection monitoring algorithm, offloaded to firmware for triggering station kickout. In case of station kickout, driver will report low ack status by mac80211 API (ieee80211_report_low_ack). This flag will enable the driver to completely rely on firmware events for station kickout and bypass mac80211 packet loss mechanism. Signed-off-by: Rajkumar Manoharan Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: Re-structure aqm debugfs output and keep CoDel stats per txq

2016-09-13T06:20:16Z

Currently the 'aqm' stats in mac80211 only keeps overlimit drop stats, not CoDel stats. This moves the CoDel stats into the txqi structure to keep them per txq in order to show them in debugfs. In addition, the aqm debugfs output is restructured by splitting it up into three files: One global per phy, one per netdev and one per station, in the appropriate directories. The files are all called aqm, and are only created if the driver supports the wake_tx_queue op (rather than emitting an error on open as previously).

mac80211: add debug knobs for fair queuing

2016-06-09T09:43:38Z

This adds a debugfs entry to read and modify some fq parameters. This makes it easy to debug, test and experiment. Signed-off-by: Michal Kazior [remove module parameter for now] Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: add A-MSDU tx support

2016-04-06T11:18:19Z

Requires software tx queueing and fast-xmit support. For good performance, drivers need frag_list support as well. This avoids the need for copying data of aggregated frames. Running without it is only supported for debugging purposes. To avoid performance and packet size issues, the rate control module or driver needs to limit the maximum A-MSDU size by setting max_rc_amsdu_len in struct ieee80211_sta.

mac80211: enable collecting station statistics per-CPU

2016-04-06T11:18:19Z

If the driver advertises the new HW flag USE_RSS, make the station statistics on the fast-rx path per-CPU. This will enable calling the RX in parallel, only hitting locking or shared cachelines when the fast-RX path isn't available. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: support hw managing reorder logic

2016-02-24T08:04:16Z

Enable driver to manage the reordering logic itself. This is needed for example for the iwlwifi driver that will support hardware assisted reordering. Signed-off-by: Sara Sharon Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

net/mac80211/debugfs.c: prevent build failure with CONFIG_UBSAN=y

2016-01-21T01:09:18Z

With upcoming CONFIG_UBSAN the following BUILD_BUG_ON in net/mac80211/debugfs.c starts to trigger: BUILD_BUG_ON(hw_flag_names[NUM_IEEE80211_HW_FLAGS] != (void *)0x1); It seems, that compiler instrumentation causes some code deoptimizations. Because of that GCC is not being able to resolve condition in BUILD_BUG_ON() at compile time. We could make size of hw_flag_names array unspecified and replace the condition in BUILD_BUG_ON() with following: ARRAY_SIZE(hw_flag_names) != NUM_IEEE80211_HW_FLAGS That will have the same effect as before (adding new flag without updating array will trigger build failure) except it doesn't fail with CONFIG_UBSAN. As a bonus this patch slightly decreases size of hw_flag_names array. Signed-off-by: Andrey Ryabinin Cc: Johannes Berg Cc: "David S.

mac80211: allow driver to prevent two stations w/ same address

2015-12-04T13:43:32Z

Some devices or drivers cannot deal with having the same station address for different virtual interfaces, say as a client to two virtual AP interfaces. Rather than requiring each driver with a limitation like that to enforce it, add a hardware flag for it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg
