wifi: mac80211: rename ieee80211_tx_status() to ieee80211_tx_status_skb()

2023-10-23T10:26:51+00:00

make htmldocs warns:

Documentation/driver-api/80211/mac80211:109: ./include/net/mac80211.h:5170: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined at mac80211:1117.
Declaration is '.. c:function:: void ieee80211_tx_status (struct ieee80211_hw *hw, struct sk_buff *skb)'.

This is because there's a function named ieee80211_tx_status() and a struct named
ieee80211_tx_status. This has been discussed previously but no solution found:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220521114629.6ee9fc06@coco.lan/

There's also a bug open for three years with no solution in sight:

https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/pull/8313

So I guess we have no other solution than to a workaround this in the code,
for example to rename the function to ieee80211_tx_status_skb() to avoid the
name conflict. I got the idea for the name from ieee80211_tx_status_noskb() in
which the skb is not provided as an argument, instead with
ieee80211_tx_status_skb() the skb is provided.

Compile tested only.

wifi: mac80211: add link id to mgd_prepare_tx()

2023-10-23T09:47:40+00:00

As we are moving to MLO and links terms, also the airtime protection
will be done for a link rather than for a vif. Thus, some
drivers will need to know for which link to protect airtime.
Add link id as a parameter to the mgd_prepare_tx() callback.

Since userspace can choose now what link to establish the
TDLS on, we should know on what channel to do session protection.
Add a link id parameter to this callback.

wifi: mac80211: Rename and update IEEE80211_VIF_DISABLE_SMPS_OVERRIDE

2023-10-23T09:43:27+00:00

EMLSR operation and SMPS operation cannot coexist. Thus, when EMLSR is
enabled, all SMPS signaling towards the AP should be stopped (it is
expected that the AP will consider SMPS to be off).

Rename IEEE80211_VIF_DISABLE_SMPS_OVERRIDE to IEEE80211_VIF_EML_ACTIVE
and use the flag as an indication from the driver that EMLSR is enabled.
When EMLSR is enabled SMPS flows towards the AP MLD should be stopped.

wifi: mac80211: add a driver callback to add vif debugfs

2023-10-23T09:43:26+00:00

Add a callback which the driver can use to add the vif debugfs.
We used to have this back until commit d260ff12e776 ("mac80211:
remove vif debugfs driver callbacks") where we thought that it
will be easier to just add them during interface add/remove.

However, now with multi-link, we want to have proper debugfs
for drivers for multi-link where some files might be in the
netdev for non-MLO connections, and in the links for MLO ones,
so we need to do some reconstruction when switching the mode.

Moving to this new call enables that and MLO drivers will have
to use it for proper debugfs operation.

wifi: mac80211: support antenna control in injection

2023-09-25T07:12:34+00:00

Support antenna control for injection by parsing the antenna
radiotap field (which may be presented multiple times) and
telling the driver about the resulting antenna bitmap. Of
course there's no guarantee the driver will actually honour
this, just like any other injection control.

If misconfigured, i.e. the injected HT/VHT MCS needs more
chains than antennas are configured, the bitmap is reset to
zero, indicating no selection.

For now this is only set up for two anntenas so we keep more
free bits, but that can be trivially extended if any driver
implements support for it that can deal with hardware with
more antennas.

wifi: mac80211: relax RCU check in for_each_vif_active_link()

2023-09-25T07:12:33+00:00

To iterate the vif links we don't necessarily need to be in an
RCU critical section, it's also possible to hold the sdata/wdev
mutex. Annotate for_each_vif_active_link() accordingly.
