Basically it\nmeans enabling power save mode after an idle period. Implementing it\ndynamically gives a good compromise of low power consumption and low\nlatency. Some hardware have support for this in firmware, but some\nrequire the host to do it.\n\nThe dynamic power save is implemented by adding an timeout to\nieee80211_subif_start_xmit(). The timeout can be enabled from userspace\nwith Wireless Extensions. For example, the command below enables the\ndynamic power save and sets the time timeout to 500 ms:\n\niwconfig wlan0 power timeout 500m\n\nPower save now only works with devices which handle power save in firmware.\nIt\u0027s also disabled by default and the heuristics when and how to enable is\nconsidered as a policy decision and will be left for the userspace to handle.\nIn case the firmware has support for this, drivers can disable this feature\nwith IEEE80211_HW_NO_STACK_DYNAMIC_PS.\n\nBig thanks to Johannes Berg for the help with the design and code.\n\nSigned-off-by: Kalle Valo \u003ckalle.valo@nokia.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Johannes Berg \u003cjohannes@sipsolutions.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: John W.

It is also not used\nby any other drivers, so clearly it cannot be necessary for \"good\nenough\" suspend/resume.\n\nUnfortunately, the callback suffers from a severe problem: It only\nworks for station mode. If suspend/resume happens while in IBSS or\nany other mode (but station), then the callback is pointless.\n\nRecently, it has created a number of locking issues, first because\nit required rtnl locking rather than RCU due to calling sleeping\nfunctions within the critical section, and now because it\u0027s called\nby iwlwifi from the mac80211 workqueue that may not use the rtnl\nbecause it is flushed under rtnl.\n(cf. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id\u003d12046)\n\nI think, therefore, that we should take a step back, remove it\nentirely for now and add the small feature it provided properly.\nFor suspend and resume we will need to introduce new hooks, and for\nthe case where the firmware was reset the driver will probably\nsimply just pretend it has done a suspend/resume cycle to get\nmac80211 to reprogram the hardware completely, not just try to\nconnect to the current AP again in station mode. When doing so, we\nwill need to take into account locking issues and possibly defer\nto schedule_work from within mac80211 for the resume operation,\nwhile the suspend operation must be done directly.\n\nProper suspend/resume should also not necessarily try to reconnect\nto the current AP, the time spent in suspend may have been short\nenough to not be disconnected from the AP, mac80211 will detect\nthat the AP went out of range quickly if it did, and if the\nassociation is lost then the AP will disassoc as soon as a data\nframe is sent.

Instead of passing them, we should therefore\nindicate to the driver that there is no information; do that by\npassing a NULL value and adjust drivers to cope with it.\n\nAs a result, some mac80211 API functions also need to cope with\na NULL vif pointer so drivers can still call them unconditionally.\n\nAlso, when injecting frames we really don\u0027t want to pass NULL all\nthe time, if we know we are the source address of a frame and have\na local interface for that address, we can to use that interface.\nThis also helps with processing the frame correctly for that\ninterface which will help the 802.11w implementation. It\u0027s not\nentirely correct for VLANs or WDS interfaces because there the MAC\naddress isn\u0027t unique, but it\u0027s already a lot better than what we\ndo now.\n\nFinally, when injecting without a matching local interface, don\u0027t\nassign sequence numbers at all.\n\nSigned-off-by: Johannes Berg \u003cjohannes@sipsolutions.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: John W.
