mac80211: store tx power value from user to station 2019-04-26T11:02:11+00:00 Ashok Raj Nagarajan arnagara@codeaurora.org 2019-03-29T10:49:09+00:00 ba905bf432f662cb907fd692a4f160e612c0408b This patch introduce a new driver callback drv_sta_set_txpwr.

mac80211: do not call driver wake_tx_queue op during reconfig 2019-03-29T10:22:41+00:00 Felix Fietkau nbd@nbd.name 2019-03-01T13:48:37+00:00 4856bfd230985e43e84c26473c91028ff0a533bd There are several scenarios in which mac80211 can call drv_wake_tx_queue after ieee80211_restart_hw has been called and has not yet completed. Driver private structs are considered uninitialized until mac80211 has uploaded the vifs, stations and keys again, so using private tx queue data during that time is not safe. The driver can also not rely on drv_reconfig_complete to figure out when it is safe to accept drv_wake_tx_queue calls again, because it is only called after all tx queues are woken again. To fix this, bail out early in drv_wake_tx_queue if local->in_reconfig is set.

mac80211: Add TXQ scheduling API 2019-01-19T08:24:12+00:00 Toke Høiland-Jørgensen toke@toke.dk 2018-12-19T01:02:06+00:00 1866760096bf40bcf6977a9076b3026598bc12ee This adds an API to mac80211 to handle scheduling of TXQs. The interface between driver and mac80211 for TXQ handling is changed by adding two new functions: ieee80211_next_txq(), which will return the next TXQ to schedule in the current round-robin rotation, and ieee80211_return_txq(), which the driver uses to indicate that it has finished scheduling a TXQ (which will then be put back in the scheduling rotation if it isn't empty). The driver must call ieee80211_txq_schedule_start() at the start of each scheduling session, and ieee80211_txq_schedule_end() at the end. The API then guarantees that the same TXQ is not returned twice in the same session (so a driver can loop on ieee80211_next_txq() without worrying about breaking the loop. Usage of the new API is optional, so drivers can be ported one at a time. In this patch, the actual scheduling performed by mac80211 is simple round-robin, but a subsequent commit adds airtime fairness awareness to the scheduler.
