2011-07-07rt2x00: Implement tx_frames_pending mac80211 callback function.Gertjan van Wingerde9-0/+22
Implementing this callback function will cause mac80211 refrain from going to powersave state when there are still untransmitted TX frames in the queues. This would exactly mimic the behaviour of the legacy vendor driver which also doesn't go in powersave mode if there are still TX frames that are not transmitted. This should make powersaving and rt2x00 a better couple.

2011-07-07rt2x00: Reduce window of a queue's tx lock.Gertjan van Wingerde1-25/+26
Currently a lot of actions that can be done without the queue's tx lock being held are done inside the locked area. Move them out to have a leaner and meaner code that operates while the tx lock is being held.

2011-07-07rt2x00: Don't use queue entry as parameter when creating TX descriptor.Gertjan van Wingerde3-28/+33
The functions that create the tx descriptor structure do not operate on a queue entry at all. Signal this fact in the code by not providing a queue entry as a parameter, but the rt2x00 device structure and the skb directly. This patch is a preparation for reducing the time a queue is locked for a tx operation.

2011-07-07rt2x00: Serialize TX operations on a queue.Gertjan van Wingerde2-5/+18
The rt2x00 driver gets frequent occurrences of the following error message when operating under load: phy0 -> rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 2. This is caused by simultaneous attempts from mac80211 to send a frame via rt2x00, which are not properly serialized inside rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame, causing the second frame to fail sending with the above mentioned error message. Fix this by introducing a per-queue spinlock to serialize the TX operations on that queue.

2011-07-07skbuff: skb supports zero-copy buffersShirley Ma2-1/+95
This patch adds userspace buffers support in skb shared info. A new struct skb_ubuf_info is needed to maintain the userspace buffers argument and index, a callback is used to notify userspace to release the buffers once lower device has done DMA (Last reference to that skb has gone). If there is any userspace apps to reference these userspace buffers, then these userspaces buffers will be copied into kernel. This way we can prevent userspace apps from holding these userspace buffers too long. Use destructor_arg to point to the userspace buffer info; a new tx flags SKBTX_DEV_ZEROCOPY is added for zero-copy buffer check. Signed-off-by: Shirley Ma <xma@...ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-07-06cfg80211/nl80211: support GTK rekey offloadJohannes Berg5-0/+193
In certain circumstances, like WoWLAN scenarios, devices may implement (partial) GTK rekeying on the device to avoid waking up the host for it. In order to successfully go through GTK rekeying, the KEK, KCK and the replay counter are required. Add API to let the supplicant hand the parameters to the driver which may store it for future GTK rekey operations. Note that, of course, if GTK rekeying is done by the device, the EAP frame must not be passed up to userspace, instead a rekey event needs to be sent to let userspace update its replay counter.

This patch add an unsolicited notification of the DCBX negotiated parameters for the CEE flavor of the DCBX protocol.

2011-07-05dcbnl: Aggregated CEE GET operationShmulik Ravid2-9/+173
The following couple of patches add dcbnl an unsolicited notification of the the DCB configuration for the CEE flavor of the DCBX protocol. This is useful when the user-mode DCB client is not responsible for conducting and resolving the DCBX negotiation (either because the DCBX stack is embedded in the HW or the negotiation is handled by another agent in the host), but still needs to get the negotiated parameters. This functionality already exists for the IEEE flavor of the DCBX protocol and these patches add it to the older CEE flavor. The first patch extends the CEE attribute GET operation to include not only the peer information, but also all the pertinent local configuration (negotiated parameters). The second patch adds and export a CEE specific notification routine. Signed-off-by: Shmulik Ravid <shmulikr@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-07-05packet: Add fanout support.David S. Miller2-5/+255
Fanouts allow packet capturing to be demuxed to a set of AF_PACKET sockets. Two fanout policies are implemented: 1) Hashing based upon skb->rxhash 2) Pure round-robin An AF_PACKET socket must be fully bound before it tries to add itself to a fanout. All AF_PACKET sockets trying to join the same fanout must all have the same bind settings. Fanouts are identified (within a network namespace) by a 16-bit ID. The first socket to try to add itself to a fanout with a particular ID, creates that fanout. When the last socket leaves the fanout (which happens only when the socket is closed), that fanout is destroyed. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-07-05vmxnet3: fix starving rx ring whenoc_skb kb failsShreyas Bhatewara2-43/+96
If the rx ring is completely empty, then the device may never fire an rx interrupt. Unfortunately, the rx interrupt is what triggers populating the rx ring with fresh buffers, so this will cause networking to lock up. This patch replenishes the skb in recv descriptor as soon as it is peeled off while processing rx completions. If the skb/buffer allocation fails, existing one is recycled and the packet in hand is dropped. This way none of the RX desc is ever left empty, thus avoiding starvation Signed-off-by: Scott J.
