wifi: mac80211: Serialize ieee80211_handle_wake_tx_queue()

2023-03-15T12:42:43+00:00

ieee80211_handle_wake_tx_queue must not run concurrent multiple times.
It calls ieee80211_txq_schedule_start() and the drivers migrated to iTXQ
do not expect overlapping drv_tx() calls.

This fixes 'c850e31f79f0 ("wifi: mac80211: add internal handler for
wake_tx_queue")', which introduced ieee80211_handle_wake_tx_queue.
Drivers started to use it with 'a790cc3a4fad ("wifi: mac80211: add
wake_tx_queue callback to drivers")'.
But only after fixing an independent bug with
'4444bc2116ae ("wifi: mac80211: Proper mark iTXQs for resumption")'
problematic concurrent calls really happened and exposed the initial
issue.

wifi: mac80211: fix memory free error when registering wiphy fail

2022-10-21T10:34:59+00:00

ieee80211_register_hw free the allocated cipher suites when
registering wiphy fail, and ieee80211_free_hw will re-free it.

set wiphy_ciphers_allocated to false after freeing allocated
cipher suites.

wifi: mac80211: Drop support for TX push path

2022-10-10T09:06:14+00:00

All drivers are now using mac80211 internal queues (iTXQs).
Drop mac80211 internal support for the old push path.

wifi: mac80211: prohibit IEEE80211_HT_CAP_DELAY_BA with MLO

2022-10-07T13:24:26+00:00

This won't work right at least with the code as it is, so
at least for now just assume it's never set for MLO. It may
very well never change, almost no drivers support it.

wifi: mac80211: set internal scan request BSSID

2022-10-07T13:24:10+00:00

If any driver relies entirely on the scan request BSSID,
then that would be wrong for internal scans. Initialize
it to the broadcast address since we don't otherwise use
the field.

wifi: mac80211: Support POWERED_ADDR_CHANGE feature

2022-09-03T15:01:04+00:00

Adds support in mac80211 for NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_POWERED_ADDR_CHANGE.
The motivation behind this functionality is to fix limitations of
address randomization on frequencies which are disallowed in world
roaming.

The way things work now, if a client wants to randomize their address
per-connection it must power down the device, change the MAC, and
power back up. Here lies a problem since powering down the device
may result in frequencies being disabled (until the regdom is set).
If the desired BSS is on one such frequency the client is unable to
connect once the phy is powered again.

For mac80211 based devices changing the MAC while powered is possible
but currently disallowed (-EBUSY). This patch adds some logic to
allow a MAC change while powered by removing the interface, changing
the MAC, and adding it again. mac80211 will advertise support for
this feature so userspace can determine the best course of action e.g.
disallow address randomization on certain frequencies if not
supported.

There are certain limitations put on this which simplify the logic:
 - No active connection
 - No offchannel work, including scanning.

wifi: mac80211: prohibit DEAUTH_NEED_MGD_TX_PREP in MLO

2022-07-15T09:43:21+00:00

For now, prohibit DEAUTH_NEED_MGD_TX_PREP since we can't
really transmit this on a specific link yet as we don't
know which links are active.

wifi: mac80211: remove link_id parameter from link_info_changed()

2022-07-15T09:43:20+00:00

Since struct ieee80211_bss_conf already contains link_id,
passing link_id is not necessary.

wifi: mac80211: expect powersave handling in driver for MLO

2022-07-15T09:43:15+00:00

In MLO, expect the driver fully handles powersave handling,
including tracking whether or not a beacon was received,
the DTIM period, etc.
