Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix TXQ AC confusion
|
|
|
|
Normally, TXQs have
|
|
|
|
txq->tid = tid;
|
|
txq->ac = ieee80211_ac_from_tid(tid);
|
|
|
|
However, the special management TXQ actually has
|
|
|
|
txq->tid = IEEE80211_NUM_TIDS; // 16
|
|
txq->ac = IEEE80211_AC_VO;
|
|
|
|
This makes sense, but ieee80211_ac_from_tid(16) is the same
|
|
as ieee80211_ac_from_tid(0) which is just IEEE80211_AC_BE.
|
|
|
|
Now, normally this is fine. However, if the netdev queues
|
|
were stopped, then the code in ieee80211_tx_dequeue() will
|
|
propagate the stop from the interface (vif->txqs_stopped[])
|
|
if the AC 2 (ieee80211_ac_from_tid(txq->tid)) is marked as
|
|
stopped. On wake, however, __ieee80211_wake_txqs() will wake
|
|
the TXQ if AC 0 (txq->ac) is woken up.
|
|
|
|
If a driver stops all queues with ieee80211_stop_tx_queues()
|
|
and then wakes them again with ieee80211_wake_tx_queues(),
|
|
the ieee80211_wake_txqs() tasklet will run to resync queue
|
|
and TXQ state. If all queues were woken, then what'll happen
|
|
is that _ieee80211_wake_txqs() will run in order of HW queues
|
|
0-3, typically (and certainly for iwlwifi) corresponding to
|
|
ACs 0-3, so it'll call __ieee80211_wake_txqs() for each AC in
|
|
order 0-3.
|
|
|
|
When __ieee80211_wake_txqs() is called for AC 0 (VO) that'll
|
|
wake up the management TXQ (remember its tid is 16), and the
|
|
driver's wake_tx_queue() will be called. That tries to get a
|
|
frame, which will immediately *stop* the TXQ again, because
|
|
now we check against AC 2, and AC 2 hasn't yet been marked as
|
|
woken up again in sdata->vif.txqs_stopped[] since we're only
|
|
in the __ieee80211_wake_txqs() call for AC 0.
|
|
|
|
Thus, the management TXQ will never be started again.
|
|
|
|
Fix this by checking txq->ac directly instead of calculating
|
|
the AC as ieee80211_ac_from_tid(txq->tid).
|
|
|
