Subject: [PATCH 0/3][RESEND][RFC] CQM RSSI event with many thresholds

From: Andrew Zaborowski <[email protected]>

This is a first stab at a nl80211 API using multiple RSSI thresholds
discussed previously. It is similar to the current CQM RSSI event with
one threshold and a hysteresis parameter. I tried to avoid creating
new nl80211 commands and events so I extended the existing command.
There's still a NL80211_ATTR_CQM_RSSI_THOLD attribute and a hysteresis
attribute but multiple thresholds can be supplied as an array.

All this is a proposal and open to changes.

There are two different mechanisms for compatibility with the current
behavior in which events are generated every time the RSSI value is
more than $hysteresis dBm away from the last event's level, even if
$threshold wasn't crossed. For example with the rssi going up from 20dBm
and the threshold set at 40 and hysteresis at 5, there'll be events at
40, 45, 50 and so on. I assume this is intentional because most
drivers replicate this behavior. If 2 or more thresholds are supplied
in NL80211_ATTR_CQM_RSSI_THOLD (i.e. it is not 4 byte long) this will
enable the new mechanism and events are only generated when a threshold
is crossed.

My opinion is that the new mechanism is similar enough to the current
one that it would be best if each driver didn't have to implement both
mechanisms, and one could be a special case of the other. However I
can't update all drivers because I can't test them. So at the driver
level there have to be two methods until all drivers implement the
new method (set_cqm_rssi_range_config, which uses a low and a high
threshold) and the current behavior can be implemented on to of it.
So the next best thing is that at least the netlink API can present it
as a single interface. Also both mechanisms never have to be enabled
simultaneously, the driver doesn't have to support them both at the
same time.

Also it seems that the wl1271 (wlcore) driver can offload RSSI
monitoring to hardware using exactly the two parameters used today:
one threshold and a hysteresis value, and no other mechanism is
supported by the hardware, so it wouldn't make sense for it to drop
the current method.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3][RESEND][RFC] nl80211/mac80211: Accept multiple RSSI thresholds for CQM

Change the SET CQM command RSSI threshold attribute semantic to accept
any number of thresholds as a sorted array. The API should be backwards
compatible so that if one s32 threshold value is passed, the old
mechanism is enabled. The netlink event generated is the same too.

cfg80211 handles an arbitrary number of RSSI thresholds but drivers have
to provide a method (set_cqm_rssi_range_config) that configures a range
set by a high and a low value. Drivers have to call back when the RSSI
goes out of that range and there's no additional event every time the
range is reconfigured. There's no reason that the whole mechanism with
more than 2 thresholds couldn't be offloaded if the was hardware
available.

I added only a mac80211 implementation of the set_cqm_rssi_range_config
method as an illustration and because I can't run-time test any other
driver. In this patch there's also no API for mac80211-based drivers
that do beacon filtering to offload this but that would be the intended
use.

Subject: [PATCH 2/3][RESEND] cfg80211: Pass new RSSI level in CQM RSSI notification

Update the drivers to pass the RSSI level as a cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify
parameter and pass this value to userspace in a new nl80211 attribute.
This helps both userspace and also helps in the implementation of the
multiple RSSI thresholds CQM mechanism.

Note for marvell/mwifiexe I pass 0 for the RSSI value because the new
RSSI value is not available to the driver at the time of the
cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify call, but the driver queries the new value
immediately after that, so it is actually available just a moment later
if we wanted to defer caling cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify until that moment.
Without this, the new cfg80211 code (patch 3) will call .get_station
which will send a duplicate HostCmd_CMD_RSSI_INFO command to the hardware.
