mac80211: preserve more bits when building QoS header 2016-10-12T12:17:13+00:00 Johannes Berg johannes.berg@intel.com 2016-10-12T12:17:13+00:00 32910bb951a2a0332d70b23f6b3f83fa988dfcde Michael Braun reported that when trying to inject A-MSDUs over monitor interfaces, the frame doesn't come out right since the QoS header A-MSDU bit is overwritten. Rather than adding that bit specifically simply preserve those bits that we don't set here, since we typically get here with a zeroed-out QoS header anyway.

mac80211: synchronously reserve TID per station 2014-11-19T17:45:36+00:00 Liad Kaufman liad.kaufman@intel.com 2014-11-19T11:47:38+00:00 b6da911b3cf1d342f2f7123c9eb6463d299bca4e In TDLS (e.g., TDLS off-channel) there is a requirement for some drivers to supply an unused TID between the AP and the device to the FW, to allow sending PTI requests and to allow the FW to aggregate on a specific TID for better throughput. To ensure that the allocated TID is indeed unused, this patch introduces an API for blocking the driver from TXing on that TID.

mac80211: 802.11p OCB mode support 2014-11-04T12:18:21+00:00 Rostislav Lisovy lisovy@gmail.com 2014-11-03T09:33:19+00:00 239281f803e2efdb77d906ef296086b6917e5d71 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: add WMM admission control support 2014-10-22T08:42:09+00:00 Johannes Berg johannes.berg@intel.com 2014-10-07T07:38:50+00:00 02219b3abca59fca81711bfe7ee78df7abad97ce Use the currently existing APIs between mac80211 and the low level driver to implement WMM admission control. The low level driver needs to report the media time used by each transmitted packet in ieee80211_tx_status. Based on that information, mac80211 will modify the QoS parameters of the admission controlled Access Category when the limit is reached. Once the original QoS parameters can be restored, mac80211 will do so. One issue with this approach is that management frames will also erroneously be downgraded, but the upside is that the implementation is simple. In the future, it can be extended to driver- or device-based implementations that are better.
