The more I am looking into this API the less I understand it or at least it raises a couple of questions. Looking into nl80211_set_cqm_rssi() [1] two behaviors are supported: 1) driver is provisioned with a threshold and hysteresis, or 2) driver is provisioned with high and low threshold. The second behavior is used when the driver advertises NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CQM_RSSI_LIST *and* user-space provides more than one RSSI threshold. In both cases the same driver callback is being used so I wonder what is expected from the driver. Seems to me the driver would need to be able to distinguish between the two behavioral scenarios. As there is no obvious way I assume the driver should behave the same for both cases, but again it is unclear to me what that expected/required behavior is. With behavior 2) some processing is done in cfg80211 itself by cfg80211_cqm_rssi_update() which is called from nl80211_set_cqm_rssi() upon NL80211_CMD_SET_CQM and cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify() called by driver. If I look at that it matches pretty close what our firmware is doing. The difference is that our firmware avoids RSSI oscillation with a time constraint between RSSI events whereas cfg80211 uses the hysteresis. So before moving forward, I hope Johannes can chime in and clarify things. Added the commit message introducing the extended feature below. It mentions backward compatibility, but it only considers the extended feature setting when user-space provides more than one threshold. However, when the drivers set the extended feature is expects (low, high) and (threshold, hysteresis) if not. So it seems the extended feature should have precedence over the number of thresholds provided by user-space.

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 in both cases. 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 for each time the range is reconfigured as there was with the current one-threshold API. This method doesn't have a hysteresis parameter because there's no benefit to the cfg80211 code from having the hysteresis be handled by hardware/driver in terms of the number of wakeups. At the same time it would likely be less consistent between drivers if offloaded or done in the drivers.

Or, when the driver doesn't implement set_cqm_rssi_config (the old method). So the driver can stop supporting set_cqm_rssi_config when it implements set_cqm_rssi_range_config. > In both cases the same driver callback is being used > so I wonder what is expected from the driver.

When the driver wants to implement both methods it may be because the hardware has a better method of handling the hysteresis than what is implemented nl80211.c. In that case, yes, it'd need to remember which method was used and the parameters. If set_cqm_rssi_range_config was used the driver is expected to report when a momentary rssi measurement goes out of the configured range. > > With behavior 2) some processing is done in cfg80211 itself by > cfg80211_cqm_rssi_update() which is called from nl80211_set_cqm_rssi() > upon NL80211_CMD_SET_CQM and cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify() called by > driver.

I guess the answer is that if the driver implements both methods it is expected to report threshold crossings according to the method that was called last. Best regards

It will only provision the driver according to behaviour (1) if 0 or 1 thresholds are being set AND the driver implements set_cqm_rssi_config(). But it says in the documentation for the set_cqm_rssi_range_config() callback[1] that it supersedes set_cqm_rssi_config() (or at least that there is no point in implementing _config if range_config is implemented). In that case, and if just one threshold is supplied (with a hysteresis), then a suitable range is computed by cfg80211_cqm_rssi_update() and provided to set_cqm_rssi_range_config(). I guess the implication here is that the two behaviours are functionally equivalent. I'm not sure I can argue for or against that because I don't really know what the semantics of the original API were supposed to be, but it seems reasonable. As a starting point - and since the firmware behaviour is very close already - I implemented only set_cqm_rssi_range(). I have been testing with iwd, which by default sets just a single threshold and hysteresis, and the driver was sending notifications as would be expected.

The difference is that our firmware avoids RSSI oscillation with > a time constraint between RSSI events whereas cfg80211 uses the hysteresis. From what I gathered, the set_cqm_rssi_range_config(low, high) API should configure the driver to send a LOW/HIGH event to cfg80211 whenever the RSSI is outside of the range [low, high]. cfg80211 seems to take care of how to deal with multiple thresholds then by calling back into _range_config from cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify() to readjust the range. I could be oversimplifying things though and I would be glad to get some clarification. Kind regards, Alvin > > So before moving forward, I hope Johannes can chime in and clarify > things.

In that case it is easy to determine what is being requested. Thanks, Arend

I overlooked that there were two different callbacks involved. So I will review the patch with that knowledge. What wifi chip did you test this with and more importantly which firmware version?

All testing was done with a PCIe Cypress CYW88359 (Murata Type 1VA). I tested with two firmwares: 1. A custom firmware from Cypress with some vendor-specific features: version 9.40.98.19 (r727154 CY) FWID 01-1ff1c30 2. The latest public firmware release from Murata[1] for this chip: version 9.40.130 (r724855 CY) FWID 01-9ae2cd6d Thanks for the review.

Add support for CQM RSSI measurement reporting and advertise the NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CQM_RSSI_LIST feature. This enables a userspace supplicant such as iwd to be notified of changes in the RSSI for roaming and signal monitoring purposes.
