| | | | | | | o do not attach DLT_IEEE802_11_RADIO unless both tx and rx headers are present; this is assumed in the capture code paths o verify the above with asserts in ieee80211_radiotap_{rx,tx} o add missing checks for active taps before calling ieee80211_radiotap_rx
* Overhaul monitor mode handling:sam2009-05-201-24/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o replace DLT_IEEE802_11 support in net80211 with DLT_IEEE802_11_RADIO and remove explicit bpf support from wireless drivers; drivers now use ieee80211_radiotap_attach to setup shared data structures that hold the radiotap header for each packet tx/rx o remove rx timestamp from the rx path; it was used only by the tdma support for debugging and was mostly useless due to it being 32-bits and mostly unavailable o track DLT_IEEE80211_RADIO bpf attachments and maintain per-vap and per-com state when there are active taps o track the number of monitor mode vaps o use bpf tap and monitor mode vap state to decide when to collect radiotap state and dispatch frames; drivers no longer explicitly directly check bpf state or use bpf calls to tap frames o handle radiotap state updates on channel change in net80211; drivers should not do this (unless they bypass net80211 which is almost always a mistake) o update various drivers to be more consistent/correct in handling radiotap o update ral to include TSF in radiotap'd frames o add promisc mode callback to wi Reviewed by: cbzimmer, rpaulo, thompsa

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o call ieee80211_encap in ieee80211_start so frames passed down to drivers are already encapsulated o remove ieee80211_encap calls in drivers o fixup wi so it recreates the 802.3 head it requires from the 802.11 header contents o move fast-frame aggregation from ath to net80211 (conditional on IEEE80211_SUPPORT_SUPERG): - aggregation is now done in ieee80211_start; it is enabled when the packets/sec exceeds ieee80211_ffppsmin (net.wlan.ffppsmin) and frames are held on a staging queue according to ieee80211_ffagemax (net.wlan.ffagemax) to wait for a frame to combine with - drivers must call back to age/flush the staging queue (ath does this on tx done, at swba, and on rx according to the state of the tx queues and/or the contents of the staging queue) - remove fast-frame-related data structures from ath - add ieee80211_ff_node_init and ieee80211_ff_node_cleanup to handle per-node fast-frames state (we reuse 11n tx ampdu state) o change ieee80211_encap calling convention to include an explicit vap so frames coming through a WDS vap are recognized w/o setting M_WDS With these changes any device able to tx/rx 3Kbyte+ frames can use fast-frames.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | capabilities reported by the ap. These need to be cross-checked against the local configuration in the vap. Previously we were only checking the ap capabilities which meant that if an ap reported it was ff-capable but we were not setup to use them we'd try to do ff aggregation and drop the frame. There are a number of problems to be fixed here but applying this fix immediately as the problem causes all traffic to stop (and has not workaround). Reported by: Ashish Shukla

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o change ieee80211_parse_htcap and ieee80211_parse_htinfo to save only internal state obtained from the ie's; no dynamic state such as ni_chw is altered o add ieee80211_ht_updateparams to parse ht cap+info ie's and update dynamic node state o change ieee80211_ht_node_init to not take an htcap ie that is parsed; instead have the caller make a separate call as one caller wants to parse the ie while another wants to parse both cap+info ie's and update state so can better do this with ieee80211_ht_updateparams These changes fix sta mode state handling where the node's channel width was shifted to ht20/ht40 prematurely.
* Cleanup AMPDU handling:sam2008-09-211-13/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For receive: o explicitly tag rx frames w/ M_AMPDU instead of passing frames through the reorder processing according to the node having HT and the frame being QoS data o relax ieee80211_ampdu_reorder asserts to allow any frame to be passed in, unsuitable frames are returned to the caller for normal processing; this permits drivers that cannot inspect the PLCP to mark all data frames as potential ampdu candidates with only a small penalty o add M_AMPDU_MPDU to identify frames resubmitted from the reorder q For transmit: o tag aggregation candidates with M_AMPDU_MPDU o fix the QoS ack policy set in ampdu subframes; we only support immediate BA streams which should be marked for "normal ack" to get implicit block ack behaviour; interestingly certain vendor parts BA'd frames with the 11e BA ack policy set o do not assign a sequence # to aggregation candidates; this must be done when frames are submitted for transmit (NB: this can/will be handled better when aggregation is pulled up to net80211)

Also there no longer are separate wlan_scan* modules; this functionality is now bundled into the wlan module. Supported by: Hobnob and Marvell Reviewed by: many Obtained from: Atheros (some bits)
