From e993af2ed2882f5dade10474d7fd1e2403aa0ab7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miri Korenblit Date: Wed, 20 Dec 2023 13:41:45 +0200 Subject: wifi: mac80211: add a driver callback to check active_links During ieee80211_set_active_links() we do (among the others): 1. Call drv_change_vif_links() with both old_active and new_active 2. Unassign the chanctx for the removed link(s) (if any) 3. Assign chanctx to the added link(s) (if any) 4. Call drv_change_vif_links() with the new_active links bitmap The problem here is that during step #1 the driver doesn't know whether we will activate multiple links simultaneously or are just doing a link switch, so it can't check there if multiple links are supported/enabled. (Some of the drivers might enable/disable this option dynamically) And during step #3, in which the driver already knows that, returning an error code (for example when multiple links are not supported or disabled), will cause a warning, and we will still complete the transition to the new_active links. (It is hard to undo things in that stage, since we released channels etc.) Therefore add a driver callback to check if the desired new_active links will be supported by the driver or not. This callback will be called in the beginning of ieee80211_set_active_links() so we won't do anything before we are sure it is supported.
