mac80211: mesh: drop frames appearing to be from us

2018-01-04T14:51:53+00:00

If there are multiple mesh stations with the same MAC address,
they will both get confused and start throwing warnings.

Obviously in this case nothing can actually work anyway, so just
drop frames that look like they're from ourselves early on.

mac80211: fix locking in ieee80211_sta_tear_down_BA_sessions

2017-12-11T09:50:00+00:00

Due to overlap between
commit 1281103770e9 ("mac80211: Simplify locking in ieee80211_sta_tear_down_BA_sessions()")
and the way that Luca modified
commit 72e2c3438ba3 ("mac80211: tear down RX aggregations first")
when sending it upstream from Intel's internal tree, we get
the following warning:

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5472 at net/mac80211/agg-tx.c:315 ___ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_session+0x158/0x1f0

since there's no appropriate locking around the call to
___ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_session; Sara's original just had
a call to the locked __ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_session (one
less underscore) but it looks like Luca modified both of
the calls when fixing it up for upstream, leading to the
problem at hand.

Move the locking appropriately to fix this problem.

mac80211: tear down RX aggregations first

2017-11-27T10:24:59+00:00

When doing HW restart we tear down aggregations.
Since at this point we are not TX'ing any aggregation, while
the peer is still sending RX aggregation over the air, it will
make sense to tear down the RX aggregations first.

mac80211: fix the update of path metric for RANN frame

2017-11-27T10:24:26+00:00

The previous path metric update from RANN frame has not considered
the own link metric toward the transmitting mesh STA. Fix this.

mac80211: use QoS NDP for AP probing

2017-11-27T10:23:20+00:00

When connected to a QoS/WMM AP, mac80211 should use a QoS NDP
for probing it, instead of a regular non-QoS one, fix this.

Change all the drivers to *not* allow QoS NDP for now, even
though it looks like most of them should be OK with that.

mac80211: properly free requested-but-not-started TX agg sessions

2017-11-20T16:01:31+00:00

When deleting a station or otherwise tearing down all aggregation
sessions, make sure to delete requested but not yet started ones,
to avoid the following scenario:

 * session is requested, added to tid_start_tx[]
 * ieee80211_ba_session_work() runs, gets past BLOCK_BA check
 * ieee80211_sta_tear_down_BA_sessions() runs, locks &sta->ampdu_mlme.mtx,
   e.g. while deleting the station - deleting all active sessions
 * ieee80211_ba_session_work() continues since tear down flushes it, and
   calls ieee80211_tx_ba_session_handle_start() for the new session, arms
   the timer for it
 * station deletion continues to __cleanup_single_sta() and frees the
   session struct, while the timer is armed

mac80211: aggregation: Convert timers to use timer_setup()

2017-11-20T15:55:23+00:00

In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to
all timer callbacks, switch to using the new timer_setup() and from_timer()
to pass the timer pointer explicitly.

This removes the tid mapping array and expands the tid structures to
add a pointer back to the station, along with the tid index itself.
