[MAC80211]: fix race conditions with keys During receive processing, we select the key long before using it and because there's no locking it is possible that we kfree() the key after having selected it but before using it for crypto operations. Obviously, this is bad. Secondly, during transmit processing, there are two possible races: We have a similar race between select_key() and using it for encryption, but we also have a race here between select_key() and hardware encryption (both when a key is removed.) This patch solves these issues by using RCU: when a key is to be freed, we first remove the pointer from the appropriate places (sdata->keys, sdata->default_key, sta->key) using rcu_assign_pointer() and then synchronize_rcu(). Then, we can safely kfree() the key and remove it from the hardware. There's a window here where the hardware may still be using it for decryption, but we can't work around that without having two hardware callbacks, one to disable the key for RX and one to disable it for TX; but the worst thing that will happen is that we receive a packet decrypted that we don't find a key for any more and then drop it. When we add a key, we first need to upload it to the hardware and then, using rcu_assign_pointer() again, link it into our structures. In the code using keys (TX/RX paths) we use rcu_dereference() to get the key and enclose the whole tx/rx section in a rcu_read_lock() ... rcu_read_unlock() block. Because we've uploaded the key to hardware before linking it into internal structures, we can guarantee that it is valid once get to into tx(). One possible race condition remains, however: when we have hardware acceleration enabled and the driver shuts down the queues, we end up queueing the frame. If now somebody removes the key, the key will be removed from hwaccel and then then driver will be asked to encrypt the frame with a key index that has been removed. Hence, drivers will need to be aware that the hw_key_index they are passed might not be under all circumstances. Most drivers will, however, simply ignore that condition and encrypt the frame with the selected key anyway, this only results in a frame being encrypted with a wrong key or dropped (rightfully) because the key was not valid. There isn't much we can do about it unless we want to walk the pending frame queue every time a key is removed and remove all frames that used it. This race condition, however, will most likely be solved once we add multiqueue support to mac80211 because then frames will be queued further up the stack instead of after being processed.

[NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace. This patch makes most of the generic device layer network namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a network namespace variable, and then it picks up a few associated variables. The functions: dev_getbyhwaddr dev_getfirsthwbytype dev_get_by_flags dev_get_by_name __dev_get_by_name dev_get_by_index __dev_get_by_index dev_ioctl dev_ethtool dev_load wireless_process_ioctl were modified to take a network namespace argument, and deal with it. vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their hooks will receive a network namespace argument. So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces. For now the ifindex generator is left global. Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else we will have corner case problems with migration when we get that far. At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when you change namespaces, and the like. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

mac80211: fix AP powersave TX vs. wakeup race There is a race between the TX path and the STA wakeup: while a station is sleeping, mac80211 buffers frames until it wakes up, then the frames are transmitted. However, the RX and TX path are concurrent, so the packet indicating wakeup can be processed while a packet is being transmitted. This can lead to a situation where the buffered frames list is emptied on the one side, while a frame is being added on the other side, as the station is still seen as sleeping in the TX path. As a result, the newly added frame will not be send anytime soon. It might be sent much later (and out of order) when the station goes to sleep and wakes up the next time. Additionally, it can lead to the crash below. Fix all this by synchronising both paths with a new lock. Both path are not fastpath since they handle PS situations. In a later patch we'll remove the extra skb queue locks to reduce locking overhead.

mac80211: Send EAPOL frames at lowest rate The current minstrel_ht rate control behavior is somewhat optimistic in trying to find optimum TX rate. While this is usually fine for normal Data frames, there are cases where a more conservative set of retry parameters would be beneficial to make the connection more robust. EAPOL frames are critical to the authentication and especially the EAPOL-Key message 4/4 (the last message in the 4-way handshake) is important to get through to the AP. If that message is lost, the only recovery mechanism in many cases is to reassociate with the AP and start from scratch. This can often be avoided by trying to send the frame with more conservative rate and/or with more link layer retries. In most cases, minstrel_ht is currently using the initial EAPOL-Key frames for probing higher rates and this results in only five link layer transmission attempts (one at high(ish) MCS and four at MCS0). While this works with most APs, it looks like there are some deployed APs that may have issues with the EAPOL frames using HT MCS immediately after association. Similarly, there may be issues in cases where the signal strength or radio environment is not good enough to be able to get frames through even at couple of MCS 0 tries. The best approach for this would likely to be to reduce the TX rate for the last rate (3rd rate parameter in the set) to a low basic rate (say, 6 Mbps on 5 GHz and 2 or 5.5 Mbps on 2.4 GHz), but doing that cleanly requires some more effort. For now, we can start with a simple one-liner that forces the minimum rate to be used for EAPOL frames similarly how the TX rate is selected for the IEEE 802.11 Management frames. This does result in a small extra latency added to the cases where the AP would be able to receive the higher rate, but taken into account how small number of EAPOL frames are used, this is likely to be insignificant. A future optimization in the minstrel_ht design can also allow this patch to be reverted to get back to the more optimized initial TX rate. It should also be noted that many drivers that do not use minstrel as the rate control algorithm are already doing similar workarounds by forcing the lowest TX rate to be used for EAPOL frames.

[MAC80211]: fix race conditions with keys During receive processing, we select the key long before using it and because there's no locking it is possible that we kfree() the key after having selected it but before using it for crypto operations. Obviously, this is bad. Secondly, during transmit processing, there are two possible races: We have a similar race between select_key() and using it for encryption, but we also have a race here between select_key() and hardware encryption (both when a key is removed.) This patch solves these issues by using RCU: when a key is to be freed, we first remove the pointer from the appropriate places (sdata->keys, sdata->default_key, sta->key) using rcu_assign_pointer() and then synchronize_rcu(). Then, we can safely kfree() the key and remove it from the hardware. There's a window here where the hardware may still be using it for decryption, but we can't work around that without having two hardware callbacks, one to disable the key for RX and one to disable it for TX; but the worst thing that will happen is that we receive a packet decrypted that we don't find a key for any more and then drop it. When we add a key, we first need to upload it to the hardware and then, using rcu_assign_pointer() again, link it into our structures. In the code using keys (TX/RX paths) we use rcu_dereference() to get the key and enclose the whole tx/rx section in a rcu_read_lock() ... rcu_read_unlock() block. Because we've uploaded the key to hardware before linking it into internal structures, we can guarantee that it is valid once get to into tx(). One possible race condition remains, however: when we have hardware acceleration enabled and the driver shuts down the queues, we end up queueing the frame. If now somebody removes the key, the key will be removed from hwaccel and then then driver will be asked to encrypt the frame with a key index that has been removed. Hence, drivers will need to be aware that the hw_key_index they are passed might not be under all circumstances. Most drivers will, however, simply ignore that condition and encrypt the frame with the selected key anyway, this only results in a frame being encrypted with a wrong key or dropped (rightfully) because the key was not valid. There isn't much we can do about it unless we want to walk the pending frame queue every time a key is removed and remove all frames that used it. This race condition, however, will most likely be solved once we add multiqueue support to mac80211 because then frames will be queued further up the stack instead of after being processed.

wifi: mac80211: allow transmitting EAPOL frames with tainted key Lower layer device driver stop/wake TX by calling ieee80211_stop_queue()/ ieee80211_wake_queue() while hw scan. Sometimes hw scan and PTK rekey are running in parallel, when M4 sent from wpa_supplicant arrive while the TX queue is stopped, then the M4 will pending send, and then new key install from wpa_supplicant. After TX queue wake up by lower layer device driver, the M4 will be dropped by below call stack. When key install started, the current key flag is set KEY_FLAG_TAINTED in ieee80211_pairwise_rekey(), and then mac80211 wait key install complete by lower layer device driver. Meanwhile ieee80211_tx_h_select_key() will return TX_DROP for the M4 in step 12 below, and then ieee80211_free_txskb() called by ieee80211_tx_dequeue(), so the M4 will not send and free, then the rekey process failed becaue AP not receive M4. Please see details in steps below. There are a interval between KEY_FLAG_TAINTED set for current key flag and install key complete by lower layer device driver, the KEY_FLAG_TAINTED is set in this interval, all packet including M4 will be dropped in this interval, the interval is step 8~13 as below. issue steps: TX thread install key thread 1. stop_queue -idle- 2. sending M4 -idle- 3. M4 pending -idle- 4. -idle- starting install key from wpa_supplicant 5. -idle- =>ieee80211_key_replace() 6. -idle- =>ieee80211_pairwise_rekey() and set currently key->flags |= KEY_FLAG_TAINTED 7. -idle- =>ieee80211_key_enable_hw_accel() 8. -idle- =>drv_set_key() and waiting key install complete from lower layer device driver 9. wake_queue -waiting state- 10. re-sending M4 -waiting state- 11. =>ieee80211_tx_h_select_key() -waiting state- 12. drop M4 by KEY_FLAG_TAINTED -waiting state- 13. -idle- install key complete with success/fail success: clear flag KEY_FLAG_TAINTED fail: start disconnect Hence add check in step 11 above to allow the EAPOL send out in the interval. If lower layer device driver use the old key/cipher to encrypt the M4, then AP received/decrypt M4 correctly, after M4 send out, lower layer device driver install the new key/cipher to hardware and return success. If lower layer device driver use new key/cipher to send the M4, then AP will/should drop the M4, then it is same result with this issue, AP will/ should kick out station as well as this issue. issue log: kworker/u16:4-5238 [000] 6456.108926: stop_queue: phy1 queue:0, reason:0 wpa_supplicant-961 [003] 6456.119737: rdev_tx_control_port: wiphy_name=phy1 name=wlan0 ifindex=6 dest=ARRAY[9e, 05, 31, 20, 9b, d0] proto=36488 unencrypted=0 wpa_supplicant-961 [003] 6456.119839: rdev_return_int_cookie: phy1, returned 0, cookie: 504 wpa_supplicant-961 [003] 6456.120287: rdev_add_key: phy1, netdev:wlan0(6), key_index: 0, mode: 0, pairwise: true, mac addr: 9e:05:31:20:9b:d0 wpa_supplicant-961 [003] 6456.120453: drv_set_key: phy1 vif:wlan0(2) sta:9e:05:31:20:9b:d0 cipher:0xfac04, flags=0x9, keyidx=0, hw_key_idx=0 kworker/u16:9-3829 [001] 6456.168240: wake_queue: phy1 queue:0, reason:0 kworker/u16:9-3829 [001] 6456.168255: drv_wake_tx_queue: phy1 vif:wlan0(2) sta:9e:05:31:20:9b:d0 ac:0 tid:7 kworker/u16:9-3829 [001] 6456.168305: cfg80211_control_port_tx_status: wdev(1), cookie: 504, ack: false wpa_supplicant-961 [003] 6459.167982: drv_return_int: phy1 - -110 issue call stack: nl80211_frame_tx_status+0x230/0x340 [cfg80211] cfg80211_control_port_tx_status+0x1c/0x28 [cfg80211] ieee80211_report_used_skb+0x374/0x3e8 [mac80211] ieee80211_free_txskb+0x24/0x40 [mac80211] ieee80211_tx_dequeue+0x644/0x954 [mac80211] ath10k_mac_tx_push_txq+0xac/0x238 [ath10k_core] ath10k_mac_op_wake_tx_queue+0xac/0xe0 [ath10k_core] drv_wake_tx_queue+0x80/0x168 [mac80211] __ieee80211_wake_txqs+0xe8/0x1c8 [mac80211] _ieee80211_wake_txqs+0xb4/0x120 [mac80211] ieee80211_wake_txqs+0x48/0x80 [mac80211] tasklet_action_common+0xa8/0x254 tasklet_action+0x2c/0x38 __do_softirq+0xdc/0x384 Signed-off-by: Wen Gong <quic_wgong@quicinc.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230801064751.25803-1-quic_wgong@quicinc.com Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

mac80211: prepare sta handling for MLO support Currently in mac80211 each STA object is represented using sta_info datastructure with the associated STA specific information and drivers access ieee80211_sta part of it. With MLO (Multi Link Operation) support being added in 802.11be standard, though the association is logically with a single Multi Link capable STA, at the physical level communication can happen via different advertised links (uniquely identified by Channel, operating class, BSSID) and hence the need to handle multiple link STA parameters within a composite sta_info object called the MLD STA. The different link STA part of MLD STA are identified using the link address which can be same or different as the MLD STA address and unique link id based on the link vif. To support extension of such a model, the sta_info datastructure is modified to hold multiple link STA objects with link specific params currently within sta_info moved to this new structure. Similarly this is done for ieee80211_sta as well which will be accessed within mac80211 as well as by drivers, hence trivial driver changes are expected to support this. For current non MLO supported drivers, only one link STA is present and link information is accessed via 'deflink' member. For MLO drivers, we still need to define the APIs etc. to get the correct link ID and access the correct part of the station info. Currently in mac80211, all link STA info are accessed directly via deflink. These will be updated to access via link pointers indexed by link id with MLO support patches, with link id being 0 for non MLO supported cases.

mac80211: prevent skb/txq mismatch Station structure is considered as not uploaded (to driver) until drv_sta_state() finishes. This call is however done after the structure is attached to mac80211 internal lists and hashes. This means mac80211 can lookup (and use) station structure before it is uploaded to a driver. If this happens (structure exists, but sta->uploaded is false) fast_tx path can still be taken. Deep in the fastpath call the sta->uploaded is checked against to derive "pubsta" argument for ieee80211_get_txq(). If sta->uploaded is false (and sta is actually non-NULL) ieee80211_get_txq() effectively downgraded to vif->txq. At first glance this may look innocent but coerces mac80211 into a state that is almost guaranteed (codel may drop offending skb) to crash because a station-oriented skb gets queued up on vif-oriented txq. The ieee80211_tx_dequeue() ends up looking at info->control.flags and tries to use txq->sta which in the fail case is NULL. It's probably pointless to pretend one can downgrade skb from sta-txq to vif-txq. Since downgrading unicast traffic to vif->txq must not be done there's no txq to put a frame on if sta->uploaded is false. Therefore the code is made to fall back to regular tx() op path if the described condition is hit. Only drivers using wake_tx_queue were affected.

Revert "mac80211: Dynamically set CoDel parameters per station" This reverts commit 484a54c2e597dbc4ace79c1687022282905afba0. The CoDel parameter change essentially disables CoDel on slow stations, with some questionable assumptions, as Dave pointed out in [0]. Quoting from there: But here are my pithy comments as to why this part of mac80211 is so wrong... static void sta_update_codel_params(struct sta_info *sta, u32 thr) { - if (thr && thr < STA_SLOW_THRESHOLD * sta->local->num_sta) { 1) sta->local->num_sta is the number of associated, rather than active, stations. "Active" stations in the last 50ms or so, might have been a better thing to use, but as most people have far more than that associated, we end up with really lousy codel parameters, all the time. Mistake numero uno! 2) The STA_SLOW_THRESHOLD was completely arbitrary in 2016. - sta->cparams.target = MS2TIME(50); This, by itself, was probably not too bad. 30ms might have been better, at the time, when we were battling powersave etc, but 20ms was enough, really, to cover most scenarios, even where we had low rate 2Ghz multicast to cope with. Even then, codel has a hard time finding any sane drop rate at all, with a target this high. - sta->cparams.interval = MS2TIME(300); But this was horrible, a total mistake, that is leading to codel being completely ineffective in almost any scenario on clients or APS. 100ms, even 80ms, here, would be vastly better than this insanity. I'm seeing 5+seconds of delay accumulated in a bunch of otherwise happily fq-ing APs.... 100ms of observed jitter during a flow is enough. Certainly (in 2016) there were interactions with powersave that I did not understand, and still don't, but if you are transmitting in the first place, powersave shouldn't be a problemmmm..... - sta->cparams.ecn = false; At the time we were pretty nervous about ecn, I'm kind of sanguine about it now, and reliably indicating ecn seems better than turning it off for any reason. [...] In production, on p2p wireless, I've had 8ms and 80ms for target and interval for years now, and it works great. I think Dave's arguments above are basically sound on the face of it, and various experimentation with tighter CoDel parameters in the OpenWrt community have show promising results[1]. So I don't think there's any reason to keep this parameter fiddling; hence this revert.

mac80211: Add airtime accounting and scheduling to TXQs This adds airtime accounting and scheduling to the mac80211 TXQ scheduler. A new callback, ieee80211_sta_register_airtime(), is added that drivers can call to report airtime usage for stations. When airtime information is present, mac80211 will schedule TXQs (through ieee80211_next_txq()) in a way that enforces airtime fairness between active stations. This scheduling works the same way as the ath9k in-driver airtime fairness scheduling. If no airtime usage is reported by the driver, the scheduler will default to round-robin scheduling. For drivers that don't control TXQ scheduling in software, a new API function, ieee80211_txq_may_transmit(), is added which the driver can use to check if the TXQ is eligible for transmission, or should be throttled to enforce fairness. Calls to this function must also be enclosed in ieee80211_txq_schedule_{start,end}() calls to ensure proper locking. The API ieee80211_txq_may_transmit() also ensures that TXQ list will be aligned aginst driver's own round-robin scheduler list. i.e it rotates the TXQ list till it makes the requested node becomes the first entry in TXQ list. Thus both the TXQ list and driver's list are in sync.

mac80211: prevent skb/txq mismatch Station structure is considered as not uploaded (to driver) until drv_sta_state() finishes. This call is however done after the structure is attached to mac80211 internal lists and hashes. This means mac80211 can lookup (and use) station structure before it is uploaded to a driver. If this happens (structure exists, but sta->uploaded is false) fast_tx path can still be taken. Deep in the fastpath call the sta->uploaded is checked against to derive "pubsta" argument for ieee80211_get_txq(). If sta->uploaded is false (and sta is actually non-NULL) ieee80211_get_txq() effectively downgraded to vif->txq. At first glance this may look innocent but coerces mac80211 into a state that is almost guaranteed (codel may drop offending skb) to crash because a station-oriented skb gets queued up on vif-oriented txq. The ieee80211_tx_dequeue() ends up looking at info->control.flags and tries to use txq->sta which in the fail case is NULL. It's probably pointless to pretend one can downgrade skb from sta-txq to vif-txq. Since downgrading unicast traffic to vif->txq must not be done there's no txq to put a frame on if sta->uploaded is false. Therefore the code is made to fall back to regular tx() op path if the described condition is hit. Only drivers using wake_tx_queue were affected.

mac80211: do not calc frame duration when using HW rate-control When rate-control is performed in HW, we cannot calculate frame duration as we do not have the skb transmission rate in SW. ieee80211_tx_h_calculate_duration() should only be called when ieee80211_tx_h_rate_ctrl() has been called before to initialize data in skb->cb.

mac80211: mesh power save basics Add routines to - maintain a PS mode for each peer and a non-peer PS mode - indicate own PS mode in transmitted frames - track neighbor STAs power modes - buffer frames when neighbors are in PS mode - add TIM and Awake Window IE to beacons - release frames in Mesh Peer Service Periods Add local_pm to sta_info to represent the link-specific power mode at this station towards the remote station. When a peer link is established, use the default power mode stored in mesh config. Update the PS status if the peering status of a neighbor changes. Maintain a mesh power mode for non-peer mesh STAs. Set the non-peer power mode to active mode during peering. Authenticated mesh peering is currently not working when either node is configured to be in power save mode. Indicate the current power mode in transmitted frames. Use QoS Nulls to indicate mesh power mode transitions. For performance reasons, calls to the function setting the frame flags are placed in HWMP routing routines, as there the STA pointer is already available. Add peer_pm to sta_info to represent the peer's link-specific power mode towards the local station. Add nonpeer_pm to represent the peer's power mode towards all non-peer stations. Track power modes based on received frames. Add the ps_data structure to ieee80211_if_mesh (for TIM map, PS neighbor counter and group-addressed frame buffer). Set WLAN_STA_PS flag for STA in PS mode to use the unicast frame buffering routines in the tx path. Update num_sta_ps to buffer and release group-addressed frames after DTIM beacons. Announce the awake window duration in beacons if in light or deep sleep mode towards any peer or non-peer. Create a TIM IE similarly to AP mode and add it to mesh beacons. Parse received Awake Window IEs and check TIM IEs for buffered frames. Release frames towards peers in mesh Peer Service Periods. Use the corresponding trigger frames and monitor the MPSP status. Append a QoS Null as trigger frame if neccessary to properly end the MPSP. Currently, in HT channels MPSPs behave imperfectly and show large delay spikes and frame losses.

mac80211: Fix NULL ptr deref for injected rate info The commit cb17ed29a7a5 ("mac80211: parse radiotap header when selecting Tx queue") moved the code to validate the radiotap header from ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit to ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap. This made is possible to share more code with the new Tx queue selection code for injected frames. But at the same time, it now required the call of ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap at the beginning of functions which wanted to handle the radiotap header. And this broke the rate parser for radiotap header parser. The radiotap parser for rates is operating most of the time only on the data in the actual radiotap header. But for the 802.11a/b/g rates, it must also know the selected band from the chandef information. But this information is only written to the ieee80211_tx_info at the end of the ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit - long after ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap was already called. The info->band information was therefore always 0 (NL80211_BAND_2GHZ) when the parser code tried to access it. For a 5GHz only device, injecting a frame with 802.11a rates would cause a NULL pointer dereference because local->hw.wiphy->bands[NL80211_BAND_2GHZ] would most likely have been NULL when the radiotap parser searched for the correct rate index of the driver.

mac80211: Fix NULL ptr deref for injected rate info The commit cb17ed29a7a5 ("mac80211: parse radiotap header when selecting Tx queue") moved the code to validate the radiotap header from ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit to ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap. This made is possible to share more code with the new Tx queue selection code for injected frames. But at the same time, it now required the call of ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap at the beginning of functions which wanted to handle the radiotap header. And this broke the rate parser for radiotap header parser. The radiotap parser for rates is operating most of the time only on the data in the actual radiotap header. But for the 802.11a/b/g rates, it must also know the selected band from the chandef information. But this information is only written to the ieee80211_tx_info at the end of the ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit - long after ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap was already called. The info->band information was therefore always 0 (NL80211_BAND_2GHZ) when the parser code tried to access it. For a 5GHz only device, injecting a frame with 802.11a rates would cause a NULL pointer dereference because local->hw.wiphy->bands[NL80211_BAND_2GHZ] would most likely have been NULL when the radiotap parser searched for the correct rate index of the driver.

mac80211: debugfs option to force TX status frames At Technical University of Munich we use MAC 802.11 TX status frames to perform several measurements in MAC 802.11 setups. With ath based drivers this was possible until commit d94a461d7a7df6 ("ath9k: use ieee80211_tx_status_noskb where possible") as the driver ignored the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS flag and always delivered tx_status frames. Since that commit, this behavior was changed and the driver now adheres to IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS. Due to performance reasons, IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS is not set for data frames from interfaces in managed mode. Hence, frames that are sent from a managed mode interface do never deliver tx_status frames. This remains true even if a monitor mode interface (the measurement interface) is added to the same ieee80211 physical device. Thus, there is no possibility for receiving tx_status frames for frames sent on an interface in managed mode, if the driver adheres to IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS. In order to force delivery of tx_status frames for research and debugging purposes, implement a debugfs option force_tx_status for ieee80211 physical devices. When this option is set for a physical device, IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS is enabled in all packets sent from that device. This option can be set via /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/<dev>/force_tx_status. The default is disabled.

mac80211: Fix PTK rekey freezes and clear text leak Rekeying PTK keys without "Extended Key ID for Individually Addressed Frames" did use a procedure not suitable to replace in-use keys and could caused the following issues: 1) Freeze caused by incoming frames: If the local STA installed the key prior to the remote STA we still had the old key active in the hardware when mac80211 switched over to the new key. Therefore there was a window where the card could hand over frames decoded with the old key to mac80211 and bump the new PN (IV) value to an incorrect high number. When it happened the local replay detection silently started to drop all frames sent with the new key. 2) Freeze caused by outgoing frames: If mac80211 was providing the PN (IV) and handed over a clear text frame for encryption to the hardware prior to a key change the driver/card could have processed the queued frame after switching to the new key. This bumped the PN value on the remote STA to an incorrect high number, tricking the remote STA to discard all frames we sent later. 3) Freeze caused by RX aggregation reorder buffer: An aggregation session started with the old key and ending after the switch to the new key also bumped the PN to an incorrect high number, freezing the connection quite similar to 1). 4) Freeze caused by repeating lost frames in an aggregation session: A driver could repeat a lost frame and encrypt it with the new key while in a TX aggregation session without updating the PN for the new key. This also could freeze connections similar to 2). 5) Clear text leak: Removing encryption offload from the card cleared the encryption offload flag only after the card had deleted the key and we did not stop TX during the rekey. The driver/card could therefore get unencrypted frames from mac80211 while no longer be instructed to encrypt them. To prevent those issues the key install logic has been changed: - Mac80211 divers known to be able to rekey PTK0 keys have to set @NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CAN_REPLACE_PTK0, - mac80211 stops queuing frames depending on the key during the replace - the key is first replaced in the hardware and after that in mac80211 - and mac80211 stops/blocks new aggregation sessions during the rekey. For drivers not setting @NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CAN_REPLACE_PTK0 the user space must avoid PTK rekeys if "Extended Key ID for Individually Addressed Frames" is not being used. Rekeys for mac80211 drivers without this flag will generate a warning and use an extra call to ieee80211_flush_queues() to both highlight and try to prevent the issues with not updated drivers. The core of the fix changes the key install procedure from: - atomic switch over to the new key in mac80211 - remove the old key in the hardware (stops encryption offloading, fall back to software encryption with a potential clear text packet leak in between) - delete the inactive old key in mac80211 - enable hardware encryption offloading for the new key to: - if it's a PTK mark the old key as tainted to drop TX frames with the outgoing key - replace the key in hardware with the new one - atomic switch over to the new (not marked as tainted) key in mac80211 (which also resumes TX) - delete the inactive old key in mac80211 With the new sequence the hardware will be unable to decrypt frames encrypted with the old key prior to switching to the new key in mac80211 and thus prevent PNs from packets decrypted with the old key to be accounted against the new key. For that to work the drivers have to provide a clear boundary. Mac80211 drivers setting @NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CAN_REPLACE_PTK0 confirm to provide it and mac80211 will then be able to correctly rekey in-use PTK keys with those drivers. The mac80211 requirements for drivers to set the flag have been added to the "Hardware crypto acceleration" documentation section. It drills down to: The drivers must not hand over frames decrypted with the old key to mac80211 once the call to set_key() with %DISABLE_KEY has been completed. It's allowed to either drop or continue to use the old key for any outgoing frames which are already in the queues, but it must not send out any of them unencrypted or encrypted with the new key. Even with the new boundary in place aggregation sessions with the reorder buffer are problematic: RX aggregation session started prior and completed after the rekey could still dump frames received with the old key at mac80211 after it switched over to the new key. This is side stepped by stopping all (RX and TX) aggregation sessions when replacing a PTK key and hardware key offloading. Stopping TX aggregation sessions avoids the need to get the PNs (IVs) updated in frames prepared for the old key and (re)transmitted after the switch to the new key. As a bonus it improves the compatibility when the remote STA is not handling rekeys as it should. When using software crypto aggregation sessions are not stopped. Mac80211 won't be able to decode the dangerous frames and discard them without special handling.

mac80211: prepare sta handling for MLO support Currently in mac80211 each STA object is represented using sta_info datastructure with the associated STA specific information and drivers access ieee80211_sta part of it. With MLO (Multi Link Operation) support being added in 802.11be standard, though the association is logically with a single Multi Link capable STA, at the physical level communication can happen via different advertised links (uniquely identified by Channel, operating class, BSSID) and hence the need to handle multiple link STA parameters within a composite sta_info object called the MLD STA. The different link STA part of MLD STA are identified using the link address which can be same or different as the MLD STA address and unique link id based on the link vif. To support extension of such a model, the sta_info datastructure is modified to hold multiple link STA objects with link specific params currently within sta_info moved to this new structure. Similarly this is done for ieee80211_sta as well which will be accessed within mac80211 as well as by drivers, hence trivial driver changes are expected to support this. For current non MLO supported drivers, only one link STA is present and link information is accessed via 'deflink' member. For MLO drivers, we still need to define the APIs etc. to get the correct link ID and access the correct part of the station info. Currently in mac80211, all link STA info are accessed directly via deflink.

mac80211: add stop/start logic for software TXQs Sometimes, it is required to stop the transmissions momentarily and resume it later; stopping the txqs becomes very critical in scenarios where the packet transmission has to be ceased completely. For example, during the hardware restart, during off channel operations, when initiating CSA(upon detecting a radar on the DFS channel), etc. The TX queue stop/start logic in mac80211 works well in stopping the TX when drivers make use of netdev queues, i.e, when Qdiscs in network layer take care of traffic scheduling. Since the devices implementing wake_tx_queue can run without Qdiscs, packets will be handed to mac80211 directly without queueing them in the netdev queues. Also, mac80211 does not invoke any of the netif_stop_*/netif_wake_* APIs if wake_tx_queue is implemented. Since the queues are not stopped in this case, transmissions can continue and this will impact negatively on the operation of the wireless device. For example, During hardware restart, we stop the netdev queues so that packets are not sent to the driver. Since ath10k implements wake_tx_queue, TX queues will not be stopped and packets might reach the hardware while it is restarting; this can make hardware unresponsive and the only possible option for recovery is to reboot the entire system. There is another problem to this, it is observed that the packets were sent on the DFS channel for a prolonged duration after radar detection impacting the channel closing time. We can still invoke netif stop/wake APIs when wake_tx_queue is implemented but this could lead to packet drops in network layer; adding stop/start logic for software TXQs in mac80211 instead makes more sense; the change proposed adds the same in mac80211.

wifi: mac80211: fortify the spinlock against deadlock by interrupt In the function ieee80211_tx_dequeue() there is a particular locking sequence: begin: spin_lock(&local->queue_stop_reason_lock); q_stopped = local->queue_stop_reasons[q]; spin_unlock(&local->queue_stop_reason_lock); However small the chance (increased by ftracetest), an asynchronous interrupt can occur in between of spin_lock() and spin_unlock(), and the interrupt routine will attempt to lock the same &local->queue_stop_reason_lock again.

mac80211: add stop/start logic for software TXQs Sometimes, it is required to stop the transmissions momentarily and resume it later; stopping the txqs becomes very critical in scenarios where the packet transmission has to be ceased completely. For example, during the hardware restart, during off channel operations, when initiating CSA(upon detecting a radar on the DFS channel), etc. The TX queue stop/start logic in mac80211 works well in stopping the TX when drivers make use of netdev queues, i.e, when Qdiscs in network layer take care of traffic scheduling. Since the devices implementing wake_tx_queue can run without Qdiscs, packets will be handed to mac80211 directly without queueing them in the netdev queues. Also, mac80211 does not invoke any of the netif_stop_*/netif_wake_* APIs if wake_tx_queue is implemented. Since the queues are not stopped in this case, transmissions can continue and this will impact negatively on the operation of the wireless device. For example, During hardware restart, we stop the netdev queues so that packets are not sent to the driver. Since ath10k implements wake_tx_queue, TX queues will not be stopped and packets might reach the hardware while it is restarting; this can make hardware unresponsive and the only possible option for recovery is to reboot the entire system. There is another problem to this, it is observed that the packets were sent on the DFS channel for a prolonged duration after radar detection impacting the channel closing time. We can still invoke netif stop/wake APIs when wake_tx_queue is implemented but this could lead to packet drops in network layer; adding stop/start logic for software TXQs in mac80211 instead makes more sense; the change proposed adds the same in mac80211.

mac80211: Switch to a virtual time-based airtime scheduler This switches the airtime scheduler in mac80211 to use a virtual time-based scheduler instead of the round-robin scheduler used before. This has a couple of advantages: - No need to sync up the round-robin scheduler in firmware/hardware with the round-robin airtime scheduler. - If several stations are eligible for transmission we can schedule both of them; no need to hard-block the scheduling rotation until the head of the queue has used up its quantum. - The check of whether a station is eligible for transmission becomes simpler (in ieee80211_txq_may_transmit()). The drawback is that scheduling becomes slightly more expensive, as we need to maintain an rbtree of TXQs sorted by virtual time. This means that ieee80211_register_airtime() becomes O(logN) in the number of currently scheduled TXQs because it can change the order of the scheduled stations. We mitigate this overhead by only resorting when a station changes position in the tree, and hopefully N rarely grows too big (it's only TXQs currently backlogged, not all associated stations), so it shouldn't be too big of an issue. To prevent divisions in the fast path, we maintain both station sums and pre-computed reciprocals of the sums. This turns the fast-path operation into a multiplication, with divisions only happening as the number of active stations change (to re-compute the current sum of all active station weights). To prevent this re-computation of the reciprocal from happening too frequently, we use a time-based notion of station activity, instead of updating the weight every time a station gets scheduled or de-scheduled. As queues can oscillate between empty and occupied quite frequently, this can significantly cut down on the number of re-computations. It also has the added benefit of making the station airtime calculation independent on whether the queue happened to have drained at the time an airtime value was accounted.

mac80211: Implement Airtime-based Queue Limit (AQL) In order for the Fq_CoDel algorithm integrated in mac80211 layer to operate effectively to control excessive queueing latency, the CoDel algorithm requires an accurate measure of how long packets stays in the queue, AKA sojourn time. The sojourn time measured at the mac80211 layer doesn't include queueing latency in the lower layer (firmware/hardware) and CoDel expects lower layer to have a short queue. However, most 802.11ac chipsets offload tasks such TX aggregation to firmware or hardware, thus have a deep lower layer queue. Without a mechanism to control the lower layer queue size, packets only stay in mac80211 layer transiently before being sent to firmware queue. As a result, the sojourn time measured by CoDel in the mac80211 layer is almost always lower than the CoDel latency target, hence CoDel does little to control the latency, even when the lower layer queue causes excessive latency. The Byte Queue Limits (BQL) mechanism is commonly used to address the similar issue with wired network interface. However, this method cannot be applied directly to the wireless network interface. "Bytes" is not a suitable measure of queue depth in the wireless network, as the data rate can vary dramatically from station to station in the same network, from a few Mbps to over Gbps. This patch implements an Airtime-based Queue Limit (AQL) to make CoDel work effectively with wireless drivers that utilized firmware/hardware offloading. AQL allows each txq to release just enough packets to the lower layer to form 1-2 large aggregations to keep hardware fully utilized and retains the rest of the frames in mac80211 layer to be controlled by the CoDel algorithm.

A new callback, ieee80211_sta_register_airtime(), is added that drivers can call to report airtime usage for stations. When airtime information is present, mac80211 will schedule TXQs (through ieee80211_next_txq()) in a way that enforces airtime fairness between active stations. This scheduling works the same way as the ath9k in-driver airtime fairness scheduling. If no airtime usage is reported by the driver, the scheduler will default to round-robin scheduling. For drivers that don't control TXQ scheduling in software, a new API function, ieee80211_txq_may_transmit(), is added which the driver can use to check if the TXQ is eligible for transmission, or should be throttled to enforce fairness. Calls to this function must also be enclosed in ieee80211_txq_schedule_{start,end}() calls to ensure proper locking. The API ieee80211_txq_may_transmit() also ensures that TXQ list will be aligned aginst driver's own round-robin scheduler list. i.e it rotates the TXQ list till it makes the requested node becomes the first entry in TXQ list. Thus both the TXQ list and driver's list are in sync.

mac80211: mesh power save basics Add routines to - maintain a PS mode for each peer and a non-peer PS mode - indicate own PS mode in transmitted frames - track neighbor STAs power modes - buffer frames when neighbors are in PS mode - add TIM and Awake Window IE to beacons - release frames in Mesh Peer Service Periods Add local_pm to sta_info to represent the link-specific power mode at this station towards the remote station. When a peer link is established, use the default power mode stored in mesh config. Update the PS status if the peering status of a neighbor changes. Maintain a mesh power mode for non-peer mesh STAs. Set the non-peer power mode to active mode during peering. Authenticated mesh peering is currently not working when either node is configured to be in power save mode. Indicate the current power mode in transmitted frames. Use QoS Nulls to indicate mesh power mode transitions. For performance reasons, calls to the function setting the frame flags are placed in HWMP routing routines, as there the STA pointer is already available. Add peer_pm to sta_info to represent the peer's link-specific power mode towards the local station. Add nonpeer_pm to represent the peer's power mode towards all non-peer stations. Track power modes based on received frames. Add the ps_data structure to ieee80211_if_mesh (for TIM map, PS neighbor counter and group-addressed frame buffer). Set WLAN_STA_PS flag for STA in PS mode to use the unicast frame buffering routines in the tx path. Update num_sta_ps to buffer and release group-addressed frames after DTIM beacons. Announce the awake window duration in beacons if in light or deep sleep mode towards any peer or non-peer. Create a TIM IE similarly to AP mode and add it to mesh beacons. Parse received Awake Window IEs and check TIM IEs for buffered frames. Release frames towards peers in mesh Peer Service Periods. Use the corresponding trigger frames and monitor the MPSP status. Append a QoS Null as trigger frame if neccessary to properly end the MPSP. Currently, in HT channels MPSPs behave imperfectly and show large delay spikes and frame losses.
