Okay, here is v6 of my patch... feel free to rip it apart. ;) (forgot to put the patch inline too... sorry) Changes since v1: - removed noise and quality from station info in NL80211 - added bandwith to station info in NL80211 - changed name of patch file to nl80211ext_v2.patch Changes since v2: - added kernel comment lines for new fields/enums - changed name of "bandwith" field to tx_bitrate Changes since v3: - added rx_bitrate to station info and sta_info - remember bitrate of last received unicast packet to this station - decode 802.11n MCS index for nl80211 (maybe this should be ported to WEXT too ?) Changes since v4: - added tx_bitrate_flags adn tx_bitrate_mcs field to station info - added flags for 40Mhz and small guard interval to NL80211 station info - added mcs field to NL80211 station info Changes since v5: - remove rx_bitrate from patch until we get a sane way to learn the details of received 802.11n packages -replace 802.11n bitrate arrays with calculation based on basic rates - pushed txrate nl80211 stationinfo into nested attribute - created station_info_rate_flags enum to save bitrate flags in station_info - cleanup of kerneldoc TODO: - push magic numbers of sta_get_80211n_bitrate (65/135) into constants - coding style cleanup Henning ----------------------- diff --git a/include/linux/nl80211.h b/include/linux/nl80211.h index 04d4516..e14caa9 100644 --- a/include/linux/nl80211.h +++ b/include/linux/nl80211.h @@ -425,6 +425,30 @@ enum nl80211_sta_flags { }; /** + * enum nl80211_sta_info_rate - station information about bitrate + * + * These attribute types are used with %NL80211_STA_INFO_TXRATE + * when getting information about the bitrate of a station. + * + * @__NL80211_STA_INFO_RATE_INVALID: attribute number 0 is reserved + * @NL80211_STA_INFO_RATE_TOTAL: total bitrate (u16, 100kbit/s) + * @NL80211_STA_INFO_RATE_MCS: mcs index for 802.11n (u8) + * @NL80211_STA_INFO_RATE_40_MHZ_WIDTH: 40 Mhz dualchannel bitrate + * @NL80211_STA_INFO_RATE_SHORT_GI: 400ns guard interval + */ +enum nl80211_sta_info_rate { + __NL80211_STA_INFO_RATE_INVALID, + NL80211_STA_INFO_RATE_TOTAL, + NL80211_STA_INFO_RATE_MCS, + NL80211_STA_INFO_RATE_40_MHZ_WIDTH, + NL80211_STA_INFO_RATE_SHORT_GI, + + /* keep last */ + __NL80211_STA_INFO_RATE_AFTER_LAST, + NL80211_STA_INFO_RATE_MAX = __NL80211_STA_INFO_RATE_AFTER_LAST - 1 +}; + +/** * enum nl80211_sta_info - station information * * These attribute types are used with %NL80211_ATTR_STA_INFO @@ -436,6 +460,9 @@ enum nl80211_sta_flags { * @NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_BYTES: total transmitted bytes (u32, to this station) * @__NL80211_STA_INFO_AFTER_LAST: internal * @NL80211_STA_INFO_MAX: highest possible station info attribute + * @NL80211_STA_INFO_SIGNAL: signal strength of last received package (u8, dBm) + * @NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_BITRATE: current unicast tx rate, nested attribute + * containing info as possible, see &enum nl80211_sta_info_txrate. */ enum nl80211_sta_info { __NL80211_STA_INFO_INVALID, @@ -445,6 +472,8 @@ enum nl80211_sta_info { NL80211_STA_INFO_LLID, NL80211_STA_INFO_PLID, NL80211_STA_INFO_PLINK_STATE, + NL80211_STA_INFO_SIGNAL, + NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_BITRATE, /* keep last */ __NL80211_STA_INFO_AFTER_LAST, diff --git a/include/net/cfg80211.h b/include/net/cfg80211.h index a0c0bf1..9ebcb11 100644 --- a/include/net/cfg80211.h +++ b/include/net/cfg80211.h @@ -169,6 +169,10 @@ struct station_parameters { * @STATION_INFO_LLID: @llid filled * @STATION_INFO_PLID: @plid filled * @STATION_INFO_PLINK_STATE: @plink_state filled + * @STATION_INFO_SIGNAL: @signal filled + * @STATION_INFO_RX_BITRATE: @rx_bitrate filled + * @STATION_INFO_TX_BITRATE: @tx_bitrate fields are filled + * (tx_bitrate, tx_bitrate_flags and tx_bitrate_mcs) */ enum station_info_flags { STATION_INFO_INACTIVE_TIME = 1<<0, @@ -177,6 +181,25 @@ enum station_info_flags { STATION_INFO_LLID = 1<<3, STATION_INFO_PLID = 1<<4, STATION_INFO_PLINK_STATE = 1<<5, + STATION_INFO_SIGNAL = 1<<6, + STATION_INFO_RX_BITRATE = 1<<7, + STATION_INFO_TX_BITRATE = 1<<8, +}; + +/** + * enum station_info_rate_flags - station transmission rate flags + * + * Used by the driver to indicate the specific rate transmission + * type for 802.11n transmissions. + * + * @STATION_INFO_BITRATE_MCS: @tx_bitrate_mcs filled + * @STATION_INFO_BITRATE_40_MHZ_WIDTH: 40 Mhz width transmission + * @STATION_INFO_BITRATE_SHORT_GI: 400ns guard interval + */ +enum station_info_rate_flags { + STATION_INFO_BITRATE_MCS = 1<<0, + STATION_INFO_BITRATE_40_MHZ_WIDTH = 1<<1, + STATION_INFO_BITRATE_SHORT_GI = 1<<2, }; /** @@ -191,6 +214,11 @@ enum station_info_flags { * @llid: mesh local link id * @plid: mesh peer link id * @plink_state: mesh peer link state + * @signal: signal strength of last received package in dBm + * @txrate_total: current unicast bitrate to this station in 100 kbit/sec + * @txrate_flags: bitflag of flags from &enum station_info_bitrate_flags + * @txrate_mcs: MCS index of a 802.11n transmission, see + * &enum station_info_bitrate_flags */ struct station_info { u32 filled; @@ -200,6 +228,10 @@ struct station_info { u16 llid; u16 plid; u8 plink_state; + u8 signal; + u16 txrate_total; + u8 txrate_flags; + u8 txrate_mcs; }; /** diff --git a/net/mac80211/cfg.c b/net/mac80211/cfg.c index 7a7a6c1..3567cd9 100644 --- a/net/mac80211/cfg.c +++ b/net/mac80211/cfg.c @@ -304,18 +304,65 @@ static int ieee80211_config_default_key(struct wiphy *wiphy, return 0; } +static u16 sta_get_80211n_bitrate(struct ieee80211_tx_rate *rate) +{ + int modulation = rate->idx & 7; + int streams = rate->idx >> 3; + + int bitrate = (rate->flags & IEEE80211_TX_RC_40_MHZ_WIDTH) ?
