mac80111: Add BIP-GMAC-128 and BIP-GMAC-256 ciphers

2015-01-27T10:10:13+00:00

This allows mac80211 to configure BIP-GMAC-128 and BIP-GMAC-256 to the
driver and also use software-implementation within mac80211 when the
driver does not support this with hardware accelaration.

mac80111: Add GCMP and GCMP-256 ciphers

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.

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.

cfg80211: make ethtool the driver's responsibility

2014-06-23T09:05:33+00:00

Currently, cfg80211 tries to implement ethtool, but that doesn't
really scale well, with all the different operations. Make the
lower-level driver responsible for it, which currently only has
an effect on mac80211. It will similarly not scale well at that
level though, since mac80211 also has many drivers.

To cleanly implement this in mac80211, introduce a new file and
move some code to appropriate places.

mac80211: mesh power save basics

2013-02-04T17:57:47+00:00

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.

mac80211: VHT peer STA caps

2012-10-17T09:02:14+00:00

Save the AP's VHT capabilities (in managed
mode) and make them available to the driver
in the station information.

Unlike HT capabilities, they aren't restricted
to the common capabilities, so drivers must be
aware of their own capabilities.

mac80211: clean up debugging

2012-06-24T09:32:29+00:00

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.
