2019-03-20net: remove 'fallback' argument from dev->ndo_select_queue()Paolo Abeni1-4/+2
After the previous patch, all the callers of ndo_select_queue() provide as a 'fallback' argument netdev_pick_tx. The only exceptions are nested calls to ndo_select_queue(), which pass down the 'fallback' available in the current scope - still netdev_pick_tx. We can drop such argument and replace fallback() invocation with netdev_pick_tx(). This avoids an indirect call per xmit packet in some scenarios (TCP syn, UDP unconnected, XDP generic, pktgen) with device drivers implementing such ndo. It also clean the code a bit.

2017-09-05mac80211: fix VLAN handling with TXQsJohannes Berg1-2/+15
With TXQs, the AP_VLAN interfaces are resolved to their owner AP interface when enqueuing the frame, which makes sense since the frame really goes out on that as far as the driver is concerned. However, this introduces a problem: frames to be encrypted with a VLAN-specific GTK will now be encrypted with the AP GTK, since the information about which virtual interface to use to select the key is taken from the TXQ. Fix this by preserving info->control.vif and using that in the dequeue function. This now requires doing the driver-mapping in the dequeue as well. Since there's no way to filter the frames that are sitting on a TXQ, drop all frames, which may affect other interfaces, when an AP_VLAN is removed.

2017-06-07net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state.David S. Miller1-3/+3
Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using netdev_ops->ndo_init(). However, the release of these resources can occur in one of two different places. Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor(). The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it is safe to perform the freeing. netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast address lists are flushed. netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the netdev references all go away. Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor() almost universally does also a free_netdev(). This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice(). Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice() fails. If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor(). This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same. However, this means that the resources that would normally be released by netdev->destructor() will not be. Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice() fails. Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks. Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev(). netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for free_netdev(). netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice(). Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit() and netdev->priv_destructor(). And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-05-30mac80211: fix TX aggregation start/stop callback raceJohannes Berg1-10/+1
When starting or stopping an aggregation session, one of the steps is that the driver calls back to mac80211 that the start/stop can proceed. This is handled by queueing up a fake SKB and processing it from the normal iface/sdata work. Since this isn't flushed when disassociating, the following race is possible: * associate * start aggregation session * driver callback * disassociate * associate again to the same AP * callback processing runs, leading to a WARN_ON() that the TID hadn't requested aggregation If the second association isn't to the same AP, there would only be a message printed ("Could not find station: <addr>"), but the same race could happen. Fix this by not going the whole detour with a fake SKB etc. but simply looking up the aggregation session in the driver callback, marking it with a START_CB/STOP_CB bit and then scheduling the regular aggregation work that will now process these bits as well. This also simplifies the code and gets rid of the whole problem with allocation failures of said skb, which could have left the session in limbo.

2016-10-12mac80211: filter multicast data packets on AP / AP_VLANMichael Braun1-0/+16
This patch adds filtering for multicast data packets on AP_VLAN interfaces that have no authorized station connected and changes filtering on AP interfaces to not count stations assigned to AP_VLAN interfaces. This saves airtime and avoids waking up other stations currently authorized in this BSS. When using WPA, the packets dropped could not be decrypted by any station. The behaviour when there are no AP_VLAN interfaces is left unchanged. When there are AP_VLAN interfaces, this patch 1. adds filtering multicast data packets sent on AP_VLAN interfaces that have no authorized station connected. No filtering happens on 4addr AP_VLAN interfaces. 2. makes filtering of multicast data packets sent on AP interfaces depend on the number of authorized stations in this bss not assigned to an AP_VLAN interface. Therefore, a new num_mcast_sta counter is added for AP_VLAN interfaces. The existing one for AP interfaces is altered to not track stations assigned to an AP_VLAN interface. The new counter is exposed in debugfs.

2016-06-09mac80211: implement fair queueing per txqMichal Kazior1-7/+5
mac80211's software queues were designed to work very closely with device tx queues. They are required to make use of 802.11 packet aggregation easily and efficiently. Due to the way 802.11 aggregation is designed it only makes sense to keep fair queuing as close to hardware as possible to reduce induced latency and inertia and provide the best flow responsiveness. This change doesn't translate directly to immediate and significant gains. End result depends on driver's induced latency. Best results can be achieved if driver keeps its own tx queue/fifo fill level to a minimum.

2016-06-09mac80211: skip netdev queue control with software queuingMichal Kazior1-3/+15
Qdiscs are designed with no regard to 802.11 aggregation requirements and hand out packet-by-packet with no guarantee they are destined to the same tid. This does more bad than good no matter how fairly a given qdisc may behave on an ethernet interface. Software queuing used per-AC netdev subqueue congestion control whenever a global AC limit was hit. This meant in practice a single station or tid queue could starve others rather easily. This could resonate with qdiscs in a bad way or could just end up with poor aggregation performance. Increasing the AC limit would increase induced latency which is also bad. Disabling qdiscs by default and performing taildrop instead of netdev subqueue congestion control on the other hand makes it possible for tid queues to fill up "in the meantime" while preventing stations starving each other. This increases aggregation opportunities and should allow software queuing based drivers achieve better performance by utilizing airtime more efficiently with big aggregates.

In the case that dev_alloc_name() fails, e.g. because the name was given by the user and already exists, we need to clean up properly and free the per-CPU statistics. Fix that.

2016-04-12cfg80211: remove enum ieee80211_bandJohannes Berg1-1/+1
This enum is already perfectly aliased to enum nl80211_band, and the only reason for it is that we get IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS out of it. There's no really good reason to not declare the number of bands in nl80211 though, so do that and remove the cfg80211 one. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2016-04-05mac80211: mesh: fix cleanup for mesh pathtableBob Copeland1-1/+1
The mesh path table needs to be around for the entire time the interface is in mesh mode, as users can perform an mpath dump at any time. The existing path table lifetime is instead tied to the mesh BSS which can cause crashes when different MBSSes are joined in the context of a single interface, or when the path table is dumped when no MBSS is joined. Introduce a new function to perform the final teardown of the interface and perform path table cleanup there. We already free the individual path elements when the leaving the mesh so no additional cleanup is needed there. This fixes the following crash: [ 47.753026] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffff0 [ 47.753026] IP: [<c0239765>] kthread_data+0xa/0xe [ 47.753026] *pde = 00741067 *pte = 00000000 [ 47.753026] Oops: 0000 [#4] PREEMPT [ 47.753026] Modules linked in: ppp_generic slhc 8021q garp mrp sch_fq_codel iptable_mangle ipt_MASQUERADE nf_nat_masquerade_ipv4 iptable_nat nf_conntrack_ipv4 nf_defrag_ipv4 nf_nat_ipv4 nf_nat ip_tables ath9k_htc ath5k 8139too ath10k_pci ath10k_core arc4 ath9k ath9k_common ath9k_hw mac80211 ath cfg80211 cpufreq_powersave br_netfilter bridge stp llc ipw usb_wwan sierra_net usbnet af_alg natsemi via_rhine mii iTCO_wdt iTCO_vendor_support gpio_ich sierra coretemp pcspkr i2c_i801 lpc_ich ata_generic ata_piix libata ide_pci_generic piix e1000e igb i2c_algo_bit ptp pps_core [last unloaded: 8139too] [ 47.753026] CPU: 0 PID: 12 Comm: kworker/u2:1 Tainted: G D W 4.5.0-wt-V3 #6 [ 47.753026] Hardware name: To Be Filled By O.E.M./To be filled by O.E.M., BIOS 080016 11/07/2014 [ 47.753026] task: f645a0c0 ti: f6462000 task.ti: f6462000 [ 47.753026] EIP: 0060:[<c0239765>] EFLAGS: 00010002 CPU: 0 [ 47.753026] EIP is at kthread_data+0xa/0xe [ 47.753026] EAX: 00000000 EBX: 00000000 ECX: 00000000 EDX: 00000000 [ 47.753026] ESI: f645a0c0 EDI: f645a2fc EBP: f6463a80 ESP: f6463a78 [ 47.753026] DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 0000 GS: 0000 SS: 0068 [ 47.753026] CR0: 8005003b CR2: 00000014 CR3: 353e5000 CR4: 00000690 [ 47.753026] Stack: [ 47.753026] c0236866 00000000 f6463aac c05768b4 00000009 f6463ba8 f6463ab0 c0247010 [ 47.753026] 00000000 f645a0c0 f6464000 00000009 f6463ba8 f6463ab8 c0576eb2 f645a0c0 [ 47.753026] f6463aec c0228be4 c06335a4 f6463adc f6463ad0 c06c06d4 f6463ae4 c02471b0 [ 47.753026] Call Trace: [ 47.753026] [<c0236866>] ?

This will allow drivers to make more educated decisions whether to defer transmission or not.
