2020-03-11mac80211: Do not send mesh HWMP PREQ if HWMP is disabledNicolas Cavallari

2019-04-26mac80211: probe unexercised mesh linksRajkumar Manoharan
The requirement for mesh link metric refreshing, is that from one mesh point we be able to send some data frames to other mesh points which are not currently selected as a primary traffic path, but which are only 1 hop away. The absence of the primary path to the chosen node makes it necessary to apply some form of marking on a chosen packet stream so that the packets can be properly steered to the selected node for testing, and not by the regular mesh path lookup.

2018-09-10mac80211: fix TX status reporting for ieee80211sYuan-Chi Pang
TX status reporting to ieee80211s is through ieee80211s_update_metric. There are two problems about ieee80211s_update_metric: 1. The purpose is to estimate the fail probability to a specific link. No need to restrict to data frame. 2. Current implementation does not work if wireless driver does not pass tx_status with skb. Fix this by removing ieee80211_is_data condition, passing ieee80211_tx_status directly to ieee80211s_update_metric, and putting it in both __ieee80211_tx_status and ieee80211_tx_status_ext.

As moving average is not considering fractional part, it will get stuck at the same level after certain state. For example, with current values, it can get stuck at 96. Fortunately the current threshold 95%, but if it were increased to 96 or more mesh paths would never be deactivated. Fix failure average movement by using EWMA helpers, which does take into account fractional parts.

2016-09-12mac80211: make mpath path fixing more robustPedersen, Thomas
A fixed mpath was not quite being treated as such: 1) if a PERR frame was received, a fixed mpath was deactivated. 2) queued path discovery for fixed mpath was potentially being considered, changing mpath state. 3) other mpath flags were potentially being inherited when fixing the mpath. Just assign PATH_FIXED and SN_VALID. This solves several issues when fixing a mesh path in one direction. The reverse direction mpath should probably also be fixed, or root announcements at least be enabled.

2015-07-17mac80211: mac80211: Check SN for deactivated mpathsJesse Jones
When processing a PREQ or PREP it's critical to use the incoming SN. If that is improperly done routing loops and other types of badness can happen. But the code was always processing path messages for deactivated paths. This path fixes that so that if we have a valid SN then we use it to verify that it is a message we can accept. For reference the relevant section of the standard is 13.10.8.4 which doesn't address the deactivated path case at all. I also included a special case for when our peer reboots or restarts networking. This is an important case because without it there can be a very long delay before we accept path messages from that peer. It's also a simple case and intimately associated with processing messages for deactivated paths so I used one patch instead of two.

2015-07-17mac80211: mesh: don't invalidate SN on discovery failureJesse Jones
The 2012 spec mentions that path SNs can be invalid when created (see section 13.10.8.4 table 13-9) but AFAICT never talks about invalidating SNs. Which makes sense: if we have figured out the path to a target at a certain SN then we want to remember that fact. Failing to do so can lead to routing loops because if we don't have a valid SN then we have no way of knowing whether an incoming path message leads to or away from the target. However currently when discovery fails we zero out mpath->flags which clears MESH_PATH_SN_VALID. This patch fixes that so that only the discovery relevant flags are cleared.

2015-06-10mac80211: Fix a case of incorrect metric used when forwarding a PREQAlexis Green
This patch fixes a bug in hwmp_preq_frame_process where the wrong metric can be used when forwarding a PREQ. This happens because the code uses the same metric variable to record the value of the metric to the source of the PREQ and the value of the metric to the target of the PREQ. This comes into play when both reply and forward are set which happens when IEEE80211_PREQ_PROACTIVE_PREP_FLAG is set and when MP_F_DO | MP_F_RF is set. The original code had a special case to handle the first case but not the second. The patch uses distinct variables for the two metrics which makes the code flow much clearer and removes the need to restore the original value of metric when forwarding.

2013-11-25mac80211: use put_unaligned_le in mesh when necessaryChun-Yeow Yeoh
Use put_unaligned_le16 and put_unaligned_le32 for mesh_path_error_tx and mesh_path_sel_frame_tx. Signed-off-by: Chun-Yeow Yeoh <yeohchunyeow@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-11-25mac80211: add generic cipher scheme supportMax Stepanov
This adds generic cipher scheme support to mac80211, such schemes are fully under control by the driver. On hw registration drivers may specify additional HW ciphers with a scheme how these ciphers have to be handled by mac80211 TX/RR. A cipher scheme specifies a cipher suite value, a size of the security header to be added to or stripped from frames and how the PN is to be verified on RX.

2013-04-16mac80211: parse VHT channel switch IEsJohannes Berg
VHT introduces multiple IEs that need to be parsed for a wide bandwidth channel switch. Two are (currently) needed in mac80211: * wide bandwidth channel switch element * channel switch wrapper element The former is contained in the latter for beacons and probe responses, but not for the spectrum management action frames so the IE parser needs a new argument to differentiate them.

2013-04-08mac80211: return new mpath from mesh_path_add()Bob Copeland
Most times that mesh_path_add() is called, it is followed by a lookup to get the just-added mpath. We can instead just return the new mpath in the case that we allocated one (or the existing one if already there), so do that. Also, reorder the code in mesh_path_add a bit so that we don't need to allocate in the pre-existing case.

2013-04-08mac80211: fix the PREP mesh hwmp debug messageChun-Yeow Yeoh
The mesh hwmp debug message is a bit confusing. The "sending PREP to %p" should be the MAC address of mesh STA that has originated the PREQ message and the "received PREP from %pM" should be the MAC address of the mesh STA that has originated the PREP message.

2013-02-15mac80211: clean up mesh codeJohannes Berg
There's various code with strange indentation, questionable loop and locking constructs, etc. The bigger change is moving the "sdata" argument to the first argument of all functions, like all other mac80211 functions that have one. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-02-15mac80211: constify IE parsingJohannes Berg
Make all the parsed IE pointers const, and propagate the change to all the users etc. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-02-04mac80211: mesh power save basicsMarco Porsch
Add routines to - maintain a PS mode for each peer and a non-peer PS mode - indicate own PS mode in transmitted frames - track neighbor STAs power modes - buffer frames when neighbors are in PS mode - add TIM and Awake Window IE to beacons - release frames in Mesh Peer Service Periods Add local_pm to sta_info to represent the link-specific power mode at this station towards the remote station. When a peer link is established, use the default power mode stored in mesh config. Update the PS status if the peering status of a neighbor changes. Maintain a mesh power mode for non-peer mesh STAs. Set the non-peer power mode to active mode during peering. Authenticated mesh peering is currently not working when either node is configured to be in power save mode. Indicate the current power mode in transmitted frames. Use QoS Nulls to indicate mesh power mode transitions. For performance reasons, calls to the function setting the frame flags are placed in HWMP routing routines, as there the STA pointer is already available. Add peer_pm to sta_info to represent the peer's link-specific power mode towards the local station. Add nonpeer_pm to represent the peer's power mode towards all non-peer stations. Track power modes based on received frames. Add the ps_data structure to ieee80211_if_mesh (for TIM map, PS neighbor counter and group-addressed frame buffer). Set WLAN_STA_PS flag for STA in PS mode to use the unicast frame buffering routines in the tx path. Update num_sta_ps to buffer and release group-addressed frames after DTIM beacons. Announce the awake window duration in beacons if in light or deep sleep mode towards any peer or non-peer. Create a TIM IE similarly to AP mode and add it to mesh beacons. Parse received Awake Window IEs and check TIM IEs for buffered frames. Release frames towards peers in mesh Peer Service Periods. Use the corresponding trigger frames and monitor the MPSP status. Append a QoS Null as trigger frame if neccessary to properly end the MPSP. Currently, in HT channels MPSPs behave imperfectly and show large delay spikes and frame losses.
