80b2fa4679 wifi: mac80211: add support to accumulate removed link statistics
Currently, if a link gets removed in between for a station then
directly accumulated data will fall down to sum of other active links.
This will bring inconsistency in station dump statistics.

For instance, let's take Tx packets
- at t=0-> link-0:2 link-1:3 Tx packets => accumulated = 5
- at t=1-> link-0:4 link-1:6 Tx packets => accumulated = 10
let say at t=2, link-0 went down => link-0:0 link-1:7 => accumulated = 7
Here, suddenly accumulated Tx packets will come down to 7 from 10.
This is showing inconsistency.

Therefore, store link-0 data when it went down and add to accumulated
Tx packet = 11.

Hence, store the removed link statistics data in sta structure and
add it in accumulated statistics for consistency.

e581b7fe62 wifi: mac80211: add support towards MLO handling of station statistics
Currently, in supporting API's to fill sinfo structure from sta
structure, is mapped to fill the fields from sta->deflink. However,
for multi-link (ML) station, sinfo structure should be filled from
corresponding link_id.

Therefore, add  link_id as an additional argument in supporting API's
for filling sinfo structure correctly. Link_id is set to -1 for non-ML
station and corresponding link_id for ML stations. In supporting API's
for filling sinfo structure, check for link_id, if link_id < 0, fill
the sinfo structure from sta->deflink, otherwise fill from
sta->link[link_id].

Current, changes are done at the deflink level i.e, pass -1 as link_id.
Actual link_id will be added in subsequent patches to support
station statistics for MLO.

4876376988 Revert "mac80211: Dynamically set CoDel parameters per station"
This reverts commit 484a54c2e5. 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.

da7f40c05c wifi: mac80211: add some support for RX OMI power saving
In order to save power, it can be desirable to change the
RX operating mode using OMI to reduce the bandwidth. As the
handshake must be done in the HTC+ field, it cannot be done
by mac80211 directly, so expose functions to the driver to
request and finalize the necessary updates.

Note that RX OMI really only changes what the peer (AP) will
transmit to us, but in order to use it to actually save some
power (by reducing the listen bandwidth) we also update rate
scaling and then the channel context's mindef accordingly.

The updates are split into two in order to sequence them
correctly, when reducing bandwidth first reduce the rate
scaling and thus TX, then send OMI, then reduce the listen
bandwidth (chandef); when increasing bandwidth this is the
other way around. This also requires tracking in different
variables which part is applicable already.

a8bca3e937 wifi: mac80211: track capability/opmode NSS separately
We're currently tracking rx_nss for each station, and that
is meant to be initialized to the capability NSS and later
reduced by the operating mode notification NSS.

However, we're mixing up capabilities and operating mode
NSS in the same variable. This forces us to recalculate
the NSS capability on operating mode notification RX,
which is a bit strange; due to the previous fix I had to
never keep rx_nss as zero, it also means that the capa is
never taken into account properly.

Fix all this by storing the capability value, that can be
recalculated unconditionally whenever needed, and storing
the operating mode notification NSS separately, taking it
into account when assigning the final rx_nss value.

ec67d6e0d4 wifi: mac80211: flush only stations using requests links
Whenever sta_flush() function is invoked, all STAs present in that
interface are flushed. In case of MLO, it is desirable to only flush such
STAs that are at least using a given link id as one of their links.

Add support for this by making change in the __sta_info_flush API argument
to accept a link ID. And then, only if the STA is using the given link as
one of its links, it would be flushed.

6e4c0d0460 wifi: mac80211: add a workaround for receiving non-standard mesh A-MSDU
At least ath10k and ath11k supported hardware (maybe more) does not implement
mesh A-MSDU aggregation in a standard compliant way.
802.11-2020 9.3.2.2.2 declares that the Mesh Control field is part of the
A-MSDU header (and little-endian).
As such, its length must not be included in the subframe length field.
Hardware affected by this bug treats the mesh control field as part of the
MSDU data and sets the length accordingly.
In order to avoid packet loss, keep track of which stations are affected
by this and take it into account when converting A-MSDU to 802.3 + mesh control
packets.

- on ath10k in push-pull mode, tx queues that the driver tries to pull from
  were starved, causing excessive latency
- delay between tx enqueue and reported airtime use were causing excessively
  bursty tx behavior

The bursty behavior may also be present on the round-robin scheduler, but there
it is much easier to fix without introducing additional regressions

refactor the link alloc/free a bit, splitting that so we
can do it without linking them, to handle failures better.

Note that a station entry must be created representing an
MLD or a non-MLD STA, it cannot change between the two.
When representing an MLD, the 'deflink' is used for the
first link, which might be removed later, in which case
the memory isn't reused.

046d2e7c50 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.

Except for couple of macro related changes, below spatch takes
care of updating mac80211 and driver code to access to the
link STA info via deflink.

2433647bc8 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.

3a11ce08c4 mac80211: add fragment cache to sta_info
Prior patches protected against fragmentation cache attacks
by coloring keys, but this shows that it can lead to issues
when multiple stations use the same sequence number. Add a
fragment cache to struct sta_info (in addition to the one in
the interface) to separate fragments for different stations
properly.

This then automatically clear most of the fragment cache when a
station disconnects (or reassociates) from an AP, or when client
interfaces disconnect from the network, etc.

On the way, also fix the comment there since this brings us in line
with the recommendation in 802.11-2016 ("An AP should support ...").
Additionally, remove a useless condition (since there's no problem
purging an already empty list).

80a915ec44 mac80211: add rx decapsulation offload support
This allows drivers to pass 802.3 frames to mac80211, with some restrictions:

- the skb must be passed with a valid sta
- fast-rx needs to be active for the sta
- monitor mode needs to be disabled

mac80211 will tell the driver when it is safe to enable rx decap offload for
a particular station.

In order to implement support, a driver must:

- call ieee80211_hw_set(hw, SUPPORTS_RX_DECAP_OFFLOAD)
- implement ops->sta_set_decap_offload
- mark 802.3 frames with RX_FLAG_8023

If it doesn't want to enable offload for some vif types, it can mask out
IEEE80211_OFFLOAD_DECAP_ENABLED in vif->offload_flags from within the
.add_interface or .update_vif_offload driver ops

47df8e059b mac80211: reduce packet loss event false positives
When running a large number of packets per second with a high data rate
and long A-MPDUs, the packet loss threshold can be reached very quickly
when the link conditions change. This frequently shows up as spurious
disconnects.
Mitigate false positives by using a similar logic for regular stations
as the one being used for TDLS, though with a more aggressive timeout.
