From 277d916fc2e959c3f106904116bb4f7b1148d47a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Felix Fietkau Date: Mon, 16 Dec 2013 21:39:50 +0100 Subject: mac80211: move "bufferable MMPDU" check to fix AP mode scan The check needs to apply to both multicast and unicast packets, otherwise probe requests on AP mode scans are sent through the multicast buffer queue, which adds long delays (often longer than the scanning interval).

The will cause several issues: - NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or control path. - dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device watchdog. - dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash when tso is disabled for lower device. Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2 forwarding transmission. With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission. In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it provides a necessary synchronization method.
