Commit Message

Michael-CY Lee Dec. 22, 2023, 1:09 a.m. UTC
The new Wi-Fi Standard (IEEE Std 802.11-2020 9.4.2.160) specifies that
the Wide Bandwidth Channel Switch (WBCS) Element subfields have the same
definitions as VHT operation information if the operating band is not
S1G.

The problem comes when the BSS is in 6 GHz band, the STA parses the WBCS
Element by ieee80211_chandef_vht_oper(), which checks the capabilities for
HT/VHT mode, not HE/EHT mode.

This patch refactors STA CSA parsing flow so that the corresponding
capabilities can be checked. Also, it adds the way to use op_class in ECSA
Element to build a new chandef.

In summary, the new steps for STA to handle CSA event are:
1. build the new chandef from one of the CSA-related (Sub)Elements in
   following order,
   - Bandwidth Indication (Sub)Element
   - Wide Bandwidth Channel Switch (Sub)Element
   - Operating class in Extended Channel Switch Announcement Element
   - Channel Switch Announcement Element
2. convert the new chandef into operation information according to the
   operating band in order to check if the new chandef fits STA's
   capabilities.
3. downgrade the bandwidth until current bandwidth is not disabled.

Signed-off-by: Michael-CY Lee <michael-cy.lee@mediatek.com>
---
v4: The biggest difference in this version is that the WBCS Element has
higher priority than op_class when STA handling CSA event.
Other changes most come from your suggestions. (ex. coding style, static
allocation in functions)
About the 'strict mode' you mentioned, we agree to making it a future
work, and let this patch handle the original problem we faced.

Hi,

So ... I foolishly applied my other changes first, so I had to rebase
this - please do check.

Couple of questions/notes, if anything needs changing please send
another patch.

Shouldn't that have (had!) an 80 MHz handling case? Or maybe a loop a la
the one in ieee80211_config_bw():

        /*
         * Downgrade the new channel if we associated with restricted
         * bandwidth capabilities. For example, if we associated as a
         * 20 MHz STA to a 40 MHz AP (due to regulatory, capabilities
         * or config reasons) then switching to a 40 MHz channel now
         * won't do us any good -- we couldn't use it with the AP.
         */
        while (link->u.mgd.conn.bw_limit <
                        ieee80211_min_bw_limit_from_chandef(&chanreq.oper))
                ieee80211_chandef_downgrade(&chanreq.oper, NULL);


Feels like this should be the same here.

Also note how this uses ieee80211_chandef_downgrade() - we really need
to track the "chanreq.oper" vs. "chanreq.ap" in this code as well for
puncturing - can I ask you to take a brief look at that? I'll anyway
probably have to look at that soon though.

Oh, also: some tests for this in the hwsim tests in hostap would be
really nice, though I don't know if that would require extending
hostapd's implementation of CSA first ...

Hi Johannes,

The rebase seems good. We will conduct a full channel-switch test,
including hwsim tests in hostap. If there are any problems, we will
send another patch to fix them.

Yes, a loop to validate the operating bandwidth is necessary. We'll
send another patch that makes this change.

Of course.
In fact, we have plans to study and implement puncturing on our MT76
driver. We're currently working on the AP side, and we expect to start
the STA side maybe three months later.

OK, thanks for checking. The tests from hostap are passing, I make sure
of that anyway, but ... who knows what they miss :)

Sounds good, thanks!

OK, let's see. I probably have plans earlier than 3 months from now for
this, but not sure yet. Let me know when/if you start working on it so
we can sync up again then?

Hi again,

Unrelated to puncturing, but if you're working on the AP side now - also
perhaps on the AP side wrt. partner/other link on MLD, i.e. one link
doing CSA another advertising it in the MLE per-STA profile?

I'd really love to have your input on that in this thread:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless/3c550ae335a9762a9cbd0c8109b6dd99faeb8f6f.camel@sipsolutions.net/

But also - if you're working on AP side for this, I have some changes
I'm working on for mac80211 to parse the per-STA profile for CSA on the
other links, to e.g. track CSA on currently disabled links, or if one
link just didn't have beacons received for a few beacons, or so...

Would you be willing/interested in testing any of this code? I'm
currently not really able to test it, so not sure if I should push it
out.

We’re reading this discussion and will give our rely as soon as
possible.

Of course we’re willing to do the test.
But we’re still working on MLD AP right now, and the critical update
will be the next.
In other word, to test MLD STA’s behavior we need to first get the MLD
AP ready.
If it’s OK, could you give us your changes? Maybe we can test it during
the development.

Best,
Michael

I actually posted it to the list yesterday, but it's probably more
useful to have it in combined form, so I've now pushed this branch:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wireless/wireless-next.git/log/?h=crosslink-csa&cache=0
