mac80211: use DECLARE_EWMA

2015-08-14T15:49:53+00:00

Instead of using the out-of-line average calculation, use the new DECLARE_EWMA() macro to declare a signal EWMA, and use that. This actually *reduces* the code size slightly (on x86-64) while also reducing the station info size by 80 bytes. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: move dot11 counters under MAC80211_DEBUG_COUNTERS

2015-05-05T12:21:54+00:00

Since these counters can only be read through debugfs, there's very little point in maintaining them all the time. However, even just making them depend on debugfs is pointless - they're not normally used. Additionally a number of them aren't even concurrency safe. Move them under MAC80211_DEBUG_COUNTERS so they're normally not even compiled in. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: make station hash table max_size configurable

2015-04-23T15:26:06+00:00

Allow debug builds to configure the station hash table maximum size in order to run with hash collisions in limited scenarios such as hwsim testing. The default remains 0 which effectively means no limit. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80111: Add GCMP and GCMP-256 ciphers

2015-01-27T10:06:09+00:00

This allows mac80211 to configure GCMP and GCMP-256 to the driver and also use software-implementation within mac80211 when the driver does not support this with hardware accelaration. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen [remove a spurious newline] Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: 802.11p OCB mode support

2014-11-04T12:18:21+00:00

This patch adds 802.11p OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode support. When communicating in OCB mode a mandatory wildcard BSSID (48 '1' bits) is used. The EDCA parameters handling function was changed to support 802.11p specific values. The insertion of a newly discovered STAs is done in the similar way as in the IBSS mode -- through the deferred insertion. The OCB mode uses a periodic 'housekeeping task' for expiration of disconnected STAs (in the similar manner as in the MESH mode). New Kconfig option for verbose OCB debugging outputs is added.

mac80211: minstrel_ht: add basic support for VHT rates <= 3SS@80MHz

2014-10-21T11:25:26+00:00

When the new CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_MINSTREL_VHT is not set (default 'N'), there is no behavioral change including in sampling and MCS_GROUP_RATES remains 8. Otherwise MCS_GROUP_RATES is 10, and a module parameter *vht_only* (default 'true'), restricts the rates selection to VHT when VHT is supported. Regarding the debugfs stats buffer: It is explicitly increased from 8k to 32k to fit every rates incl. when both HT and VHT rates are enabled, as for the format, before: type rate tpt eprob *prob ret *ok(*cum) ok( cum) HT20/LGI ABCDP MCS0 0.0 0.0 0.0 1 0( 0) 0( 0) after: type rate tpt eprob *prob ret *ok(*cum) ok( cum) HT20/LGI ABCDP MCS0 0.0 0.0 0.0 1 0( 0) 0( 0) VHT40/LGI MCS5/2 0.0 0.0 0.0 0 0( 0) 0( 0) Signed-off-by: Karl Beldan Cc: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: process the CSA frame for mesh accordingly

2013-10-28T14:05:28+00:00

Process the CSA frame according to the procedures define in IEEE Std 802.11-2012 section 10.9.8.4.3 as follow: * The mesh channel switch parameters element (MCSP) must be availabe. * If the MCSP's TTL is 1, drop the frame but still process the CSA. * If the MCSP's precedence value is less than or equal to the current precedence value, drop the frame and do not process the CSA. * The CSA frame is forwarded after TTL is decremented by 1 and the initiator field is set to 0. Transmit restrict field and others are maintained as is. * No beacon or probe response frame are handled here. Also, introduce the debug message used for mesh CSA purpose.

mac80211: port CCMP to cryptoapi's CCM driver

2013-10-11T13:38:20+00:00

Use the generic CCM aead chaining mode driver rather than a local implementation that sits right on top of the core AES cipher. This allows the use of accelerated implementations of either CCM as a whole or the CTR mode which it encapsulates. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg
