ath9k: unify edma and non-edma tx code, improve tx fifo handling

EDMA based chips (AR9380+) have 8 Tx FIFO slots, which are used to fix the
tx queue start/stop race conditions which have to be worked around for
earlier chips by keeping the last descriptor in the queue. The current code
stores all frames that do not fit onto the 8 FIFO slots in a separate
list. Whenever a FIFO slot is freed up, the next frame (or A-MPDU) from the
pending queue gets moved to that slot.

This process is not only inefficient, but also unnecessary. The code can
be improved visibly by keeping the pending queue fully linked, and moving
the contents of the entire queue to a FIFO slot as it becomes available.

This patch makes the necessary changes for that and also merges some code
that was duplicated for EDMA vs non-EDMA. It changes txq->axq_link to point
to the last descriptor instead of the link pointer, so that
ath9k_hw_set_desc_link can be used, which works on all chips.

With this patch, a small performance increase for non-aggregated traffic
was observed on AR9380 based embedded hardware.

Javier Lopez [Wed, 1 Jun 2011 09:26:13 +0000 (11:26 +0200)]
mac80211_hwsim driver support userspace frame tx/rx

This patch adds to mac80211_hwsim the capability to send traffic via
userspace.

Frame exchange between kernel and user spaces is done through generic
netlink communication protocol. A new generic netlink family
MAC80211_HWSIM is proposed, this family contains three basic commands
HWSIM_CMD_REGISTER, which is the command used to register a new
traffic listener, HWSIM_CMD_FRAME, to exchange the frames from kernel
to user and vice-versa, and HWSIM_CMD_TX_INFO_FRAME which returns
from user all the information about retransmissions, rates, rx signal,
and so on.

How it works:

Once the driver is loaded the MAC80211_HWSIM family will be registered.
In the absence of userspace daemon, the driver itselfs implements a
perfect wireless medium as it did in the past. When a daemon sends a
HWSIM_CMD_REGISTER command, the module stores the application PID, and
from this moment all frames will be sent to the registered daemon.

The user space application will be in charge of process/forward all
frames broadcast by any mac80211_hwsim radio. If the user application
is stopped, the kernel module will detect the release of the socket
and it will switch back to in-kernel perfect channel simulation.

The userspace daemon must be waiting for incoming HWSIM_CMD_FRAME
commands sent from kernel, for each HWSIM_CMD_FRAME command the
application will try to broadcast this frame to all mac80211_hwsim
radios, however the application may decide to forward/drop this frame.
In the case of forwarding the frame, a new HWSIM_CMD_FRAME command will
be created, all necessary attributes will be populated and the frame
will be sent back to the kernel.

Also after the frame broadcast phase, a HWSIM_CMD_TX_INFO_FRAME
command will be sent from userspace to kernel, this command contains
all the information regarding the transmission, such as number of
tries, rates, ack signal, etc.

mwifiex: correct event header length

While decoding received event packet from firmware, 4 bytes
of interface header are already removed unconditionally.
So for handling event only 4 more bytes needs to be pulled.
This is achieved by changing event header length to 4.

Almost all the events, except BA stream related and AMSDU
aggregation control events, do not have the payload in their
event skb. Such events handling depends only on the event ID.
This event ID is the first four bytes of the event skb, which
is copied to a separate variable before pulling the skb header.
Hence event handling worked only for those events that didn't
have payload in event skb.

This patch fixes the broken event path of the events with
payload in their event skb without harming existing working

It occurs because we are able to change the slave configuarion of a bond while
the bond interface is down.  The bonding driver initializes some data structures
only after its ndo_open routine is called.  Among them is the initalization of
the alb tx and rx hash locks.  So if we add or remove a slave without first
opening the bond master device, we run the risk of trying to lock/unlock a
spinlock that has garbage for data in it, which results in our above softlock.

Note that sometimes this works, because in many cases an unlocked spinlock has
the raw_lock parameter initialized to zero (meaning that the kzalloc of the
net_device private data is equivalent to calling spin_lock_init), but thats not
true in all cases, and we aren't guaranteed that condition, so we need to pass
the relevant spinlocks through the spin_lock_init function.

Fix it by moving the spin_lock_init calls for the tx and rx hashtable locks to
the ndo_init path, so they are ready for use by the bond_store_slaves path.

Change notes:
v2) Based on conversation with Jay and Nicolas it seems that the ability to
enslave devices while the bond master is down should be safe to do.  As such
this is an outlier bug, and so instead we'll just initalize the errant spinlocks
in the init path rather than the open path, solving the problem.  We'll also
remove the warnings about the bond being down during enslave operations, since
it should be safe

net: convert %p usage to %pK

The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers,
specifically via /proc interfaces.  Exposing these pointers provides an
easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the
locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function
pointers.  The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl.

If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior
occurs.  If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user
(intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG
(currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's.
 If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as
0's regardless of privileges.  Replacing with 0's was chosen over the
default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects
"(nil)".

The supporting code for kptr_restrict and %pK are currently in the -mm
tree.  This patch converts users of %p in net/ to %pK.  Cases of printing
pointers to the syslog are not covered, since this would eliminate useful
information for postmortem debugging and the reading of the syslog is
already optionally protected by the dmesg_restrict sysctl.

bug.h: Add WARN_RATELIMIT

Add a generic mechanism to ratelimit WARN(foo, fmt, ...) messages
using a hidden per call site static struct ratelimit_state.

Also add an __WARN_RATELIMIT variant to be able to use a specific
struct ratelimit_state.

13 years agosch_sfq: avoid giving spurious NET_XMIT_CN signals

sch_sfq: avoid giving spurious NET_XMIT_CN signals

While chasing a possible net_sched bug, I found that IP fragments have
litle chance to pass a congestioned SFQ qdisc :

- Say SFQ qdisc is full because one flow is non responsive.
- ip_fragment() wants to send two fragments belonging to an idle flow.
- sfq_enqueue() queues first packet, but see queue limit reached :
- sfq_enqueue() drops one packet from 'big consumer', and returns
NET_XMIT_CN.
- ip_fragment() cancel remaining fragments.

This patch restores fairness, making sure we return NET_XMIT_CN only if
we dropped a packet from the same flow.

ehea: Fix multicast registration on semi-promiscuous mode

Ehea will not register multicast groups in phyp if the physical
interface is in promiscuous mode. But it should register if the
logical port is in promiscuous mode, but the physical port is not.

Ehea physical promiscuous mode is defined by ehea_port->promisc,
while logical port is defined by IFF_PROMISC.

So currently, if the user set the interface in promiscuous mode,
IGMP will not be registred in PHYP, and PHYP will never pass
the multicast packet to the logical port, which is bad

So, this patch just fixes it, assuring that we register in phyp
if the physical port is not on promiscuous mode.
