2014-11-04mac80211: 802.11p OCB mode supportRostislav Lisovy1-0/+10
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.

2013-10-28mac80211: process the CSA frame for mesh accordinglyChun-Yeow Yeoh1-0/+10
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.

2013-02-04mac80211: mesh power save basicsMarco Porsch1-0/+10
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.

2012-06-24mac80211: trace debug messagesJohannes Berg1-0/+18
It can be very useful to have all debug messages available when debugging, but hard to correlate between different sources, so add a trace event for all mac80211 debug messages. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-06-24mac80211: clean up debuggingJohannes Berg1-0/+152
There are a few things that make the logging and debugging in mac80211 less useful than it should be right now: * a lot of messages should be pr_info, not pr_debug * wholesale use of pr_debug makes it require *both* Kconfig and dynamic configuration * there are still a lot of ifdefs * the style is very inconsistent, sometimes the sdata->name is printed in front Clean up everything, introducing new macros and separating out the station MLME debugging into a new Kconfig symbol.
