Sending multiple action frames off channel, one after the other can create
a race that will result in a timeout:
1. Start sending action frame off channel.
2. Once the frame is sent or the time event is over, the flow will
eventually call ieee80211_start_next_roc to start the next roc frame &
iwl_mvm_roc_finished schedules to schedule a work to flush the queue.
3. Start sending new roc frame and write it to the queue before the
flush work has started.
4. The work is called and it flushes the new packet that was placed on the
on the queue so the packet is lost.
This causes the frame to be removed & not sent, that causes a timeout in
userspace.
Flush the work queue that flushes the roc/off channel queue before starting
to send a new frame off channel, in order to avoid a race between the new
frame that is transmitted off channel & the flushing of the queue.

This will expose in /sys whether the ifname of a device is set by
userspace or generated by the kernel. The latter kind (wlanX, etc)
is not deterministic, so userspace needs to rename these devices
to names that are guaranteed to stay the same between reboots. The
former, however should never be renamed, so userspace needs to be

If a peer or some local agent (rate control, ...) decides to start
an aggregation session but doesn't support HT (which also implies
QoS), reject it.
This is mostly a corner case as such peers normally won't try to
use block-ack sessions and rate control wouldn't start them, but
technically QoS stations could request it according to the spec.
However, since drivers don't really support such non-HT sessions
it's better to reject them.
Also, while at it, move the tracing for TX sessions earlier so it
captures the error cases as well.

The rate control locking caused a potential deadlock here due to the
locks being acquired in different orders, so that change cannot yet
be applied. However, there's no fundamental reason for this code to
hold the sta->lock while transmitting frames.
Clearly it's better not to hold the lock for longer periods of time,
which can happen here since we call all the way down to the driver.

Instead of looking up the destination station twice in the TX path

In ieee80211_build_hdr(), the station is looked up to build the

If there's no station on the 4-addr VLAN interface, then frames

Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
There's no need to look up the destination station twice while
building the 802.11 header for a given frame if the frame will
actually be transmitted to the station we initially looked up.
This happens for 4-addr VLAN interfaces and TDLS connections, which
both directly send the frame to the station they looked up, though
in the case of TDLS some station conditions need to be checked.
To avoid that, add a variable indicating that we've looked up the
station that the frame is going to be transmitted to, and avoid the
lookup/flag checking if it already has been done.
In the TDLS case, also move the authorized/wme_sta flag assignment
to the correct place, i.e. only when that station is really used.
Before this change, the new lookup should always have succeeded so
that the potentially erroneous data would be overwritten.

This warning is misleading. In many cases, for example P2P ROC time
events, this will happen if the time event is aborted, for example
due to a higher priority time event. This is entirely normal and not
worth warning about.
In other cases, where we actually do act upon this, for example when
trying to connect and this fails, we should instead warn as part of
the disconnect operation.
Change the code to do that, i.e. make the warning a debug message,
and make it more prominent (an error) when we actually disconnect
because of it.
This also fixes confusion in the logs - the warning was mistaken for
something that needed investigation, while in most cases it's just
expected behaviour that occasionally some lower-priority time events
would not complete fully.
