24/**
25 * DOC: Introduction
26 *
27 * mac80211 is the Linux stack for 802.11 hardware that implements
28 * only partial functionality in hard- or firmware. This document
29 * defines the interface between mac80211 and low-level hardware
30 * drivers.
31 */

33/**
34 * DOC: Calling mac80211 from interrupts
35 *
36 * Only ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe() and ieee80211_rx_irqsafe() can be
37 * called in hardware interrupt context. The low-level driver must not call any
38 * other functions in hardware interrupt context. If there is a need for such
39 * call, the low-level driver should first ACK the interrupt and perform the
40 * IEEE 802.11 code call after this, e.g. from a scheduled workqueue or even
41 * tasklet function.
42 *
43 * NOTE: If the driver opts to use the _irqsafe() functions, it may not also
44 *	 use the non-IRQ-safe functions!
45 */

47/**
48 * DOC: Warning
49 *
50 * If you're reading this document and not the header file itself, it will
51 * be incomplete because not all documentation has been converted yet.
52 */
53
54/**
55 * DOC: Frame format
56 *
57 * As a general rule, when frames are passed between mac80211 and the driver,
58 * they start with the IEEE 802.11 header and include the same octets that are
59 * sent over the air except for the FCS which should be calculated by the
60 * hardware.
61 *
62 * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features:
63 *
64 * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload
65 * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware.
66 *
67 * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to
68 * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU.
69 *
70 * Finally, for received frames, the driver is able to indicate that it has
71 * filled a radiotap header and put that in front of the frame; if it does
72 * not do so then mac80211 may add this under certain circumstances.
73 */

75/**
76 * DOC: mac80211 workqueue
77 *
78 * mac80211 provides its own workqueue for drivers and internal mac80211 use.
79 * The workqueue is a single threaded workqueue and can only be accessed by
80 * helpers for sanity checking. Drivers must ensure all work added onto the
81 * mac80211 workqueue should be cancelled on the driver stop() callback.
82 *
83 * mac80211 will flushed the workqueue upon interface removal and during
84 * suspend.
85 *
86 * All work performed on the mac80211 workqueue must not acquire the RTNL lock.

381 *
382 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS: require TX status callback for this frame.
383 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ: The driver has to assign a sequence
384 *	number to this frame, taking care of not overwriting the fragment
385 *	number and increasing the sequence number only when the
386 *	IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT flag is set. mac80211 will properly
387 *	assign sequence numbers to QoS-data frames but cannot do so correctly
388 *	for non-QoS-data and management frames because beacons need them from
389 *	that counter as well and mac80211 cannot guarantee proper sequencing.
390 *	If this flag is set, the driver should instruct the hardware to
391 *	assign a sequence number to the frame or assign one itself. Cf. IEEE
392 *	802.11-2007 7.1.3.4.1 paragraph 3. This flag will always be set for

394 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK: tell the low level not to wait for an ack
395 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT: clear powersave filter for destination
396 *	station
397 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT: this is a first fragment of the frame
398 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_SEND_AFTER_DTIM: send this frame after DTIM beacon
399 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU: this frame should be sent as part of an A-MPDU
400 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_INJECTED: Frame was injected, internal to mac80211.
401 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED: The frame was not transmitted
402 *	because the destination STA was in powersave mode. Note that to
403 *	avoid race conditions, the filter must be set by the hardware or
404 *	firmware upon receiving a frame that indicates that the station
405 *	went to sleep (must be done on device to filter frames already on
406 *	the queue) and may only be unset after mac80211 gives the OK for
407 *	that by setting the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT (see above),
408 *	since only then is it guaranteed that no more frames are in the
409 *	hardware queue.
410 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK: Frame was acknowledged
411 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU: The frame was aggregated, so status
412 * 	is for the whole aggregation.
413 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU_NO_BACK: no block ack was returned,
414 * 	so consider using block ack request (BAR).
415 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_RATE_CTRL_PROBE: internal to mac80211, can be
416 *	set by rate control algorithms to indicate probe rate, will
417 *	be cleared for fragmented frames (except on the last fragment)
418 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_OFFCHAN_TX_OK: Internal to mac80211. Used to indicate
419 *	that a frame can be transmitted while the queues are stopped for
420 *	off-channel operation.
421 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NEED_TXPROCESSING: completely internal to mac80211,
422 *	used to indicate that a pending frame requires TX processing before
423 *	it can be sent out.
424 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRIED: completely internal to mac80211,
425 *	used to indicate that a frame was already retried due to PS
426 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT: completely internal to mac80211,
427 *	used to indicate frame should not be encrypted
428 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER: This frame is a response to a poll
429 *	frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD) or a non-bufferable MMPDU and must
430 *	be sent although the station is in powersave mode.
431 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES: More frames will be passed to the
432 *	transmit function after the current frame, this can be used
433 *	by drivers to kick the DMA queue only if unset or when the
434 *	queue gets full.
435 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRANSMISSION: This frame is being retransmitted
436 *	after TX status because the destination was asleep, it must not
437 *	be modified again (no seqno assignment, crypto, etc.)
438 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_MLME_CONN_TX: This frame was transmitted by the MLME
439 *	code for connection establishment, this indicates that its status
440 *	should kick the MLME state machine.
441 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NL80211_FRAME_TX: Frame was requested through nl80211
442 *	MLME command (internal to mac80211 to figure out whether to send TX
443 *	status to user space)
444 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_LDPC: tells the driver to use LDPC for this frame
445 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_STBC: Enables Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) for this
446 *	frame and selects the maximum number of streams that it can use.
447 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN: Marks this packet to be transmitted on
448 *	the off-channel channel when a remain-on-channel offload is done
449 *	in hardware -- normal packets still flow and are expected to be
450 *	handled properly by the device.
451 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_TKIP_MIC_FAILURE: Marks this packet to be used for TKIP
452 *	testing. It will be sent out with incorrect Michael MIC key to allow
453 *	TKIP countermeasures to be tested.
454 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_CCK_RATE: This frame will be sent at non CCK rate.
455 *	This flag is actually used for management frame especially for P2P
456 *	frames not being sent at CCK rate in 2GHz band.
457 * @IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP: This packet marks the end of service period,
458 *	when its status is reported the service period ends. For frames in
459 *	an SP that mac80211 transmits, it is already set; for driver frames
460 *	the driver may set this flag. It is also used to do the same for
461 *	PS-Poll responses.
462 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_USE_MINRATE: This frame will be sent at lowest rate.
463 *	This flag is used to send nullfunc frame at minimum rate when
464 *	the nullfunc is used for connection monitoring purpose.
465 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_DONTFRAG: Don't fragment this packet even if it
466 *	would be fragmented by size (this is optional, only used for
467 *	monitor injection).
468 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_PS_RESPONSE: This frame is a response to a poll
469 *	frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD).
470 *
471 * Note: If you have to add new flags to the enumeration, then don't
472 *	 forget to update %IEEE80211_TX_TEMPORARY_FLAGS when necessary.

829 * @RX_FLAG_STBC_MASK: STBC 2 bit bitmask. 1 - Nss=1, 2 - Nss=2, 3 - Nss=3
830 * @RX_FLAG_10MHZ: 10 MHz (half channel) was used
831 * @RX_FLAG_5MHZ: 5 MHz (quarter channel) was used
832 * @RX_FLAG_AMSDU_MORE: Some drivers may prefer to report separate A-MSDU
833 *	subframes instead of a one huge frame for performance reasons.
834 *	All, but the last MSDU from an A-MSDU should have this flag set. E.g.
835 *	if an A-MSDU has 3 frames, the first 2 must have the flag set, while
836 *	the 3rd (last) one must not have this flag set. The flag is used to

1300 * struct ieee80211_sta - station table entry
1301 *
1302 * A station table entry represents a station we are possibly
1303 * communicating with. Since stations are RCU-managed in
1304 * mac80211, any ieee80211_sta pointer you get access to must
1305 * either be protected by rcu_read_lock() explicitly or implicitly,
1306 * or you must take good care to not use such a pointer after a
1307 * call to your sta_remove callback that removed it.
1308 *
1309 * @addr: MAC address
1310 * @aid: AID we assigned to the station if we're an AP
1311 * @supp_rates: Bitmap of supported rates (per band)
1312 * @ht_cap: HT capabilities of this STA; restricted to our own capabilities
1313 * @vht_cap: VHT capabilities of this STA; restricted to our own capabilities
1314 * @wme: indicates whether the STA supports WME. Only valid during AP-mode.
1315 * @drv_priv: data area for driver use, will always be aligned to
1316 *	sizeof(void *), size is determined in hw information.
1317 * @uapsd_queues: bitmap of queues configured for uapsd. Only valid
1318 *	if wme is supported.
1319 * @max_sp: max Service Period. Only valid if wme is supported.
1320 * @bandwidth: current bandwidth the station can receive with
1321 * @rx_nss: in HT/VHT, the maximum number of spatial streams the
1322 *	station can receive at the moment, changed by operating mode
1323 *	notifications and capabilities. The value is only valid after
1324 *	the station moves to associated state.
1325 * @smps_mode: current SMPS mode (off, static or dynamic)
1326 * @rates: rate control selection table

1370 * enum ieee80211_hw_flags - hardware flags
1371 *
1372 * These flags are used to indicate hardware capabilities to
1373 * the stack. Generally, flags here should have their meaning
1374 * done in a way that the simplest hardware doesn't need setting
1375 * any particular flags. There are some exceptions to this rule,
1376 * however, so you are advised to review these flags carefully.
1377 *
1378 * @IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL:
1379 *	The hardware or firmware includes rate control, and cannot be
1380 *	controlled by the stack. As such, no rate control algorithm
1381 *	should be instantiated, and the TX rate reported to userspace
1382 *	will be taken from the TX status instead of the rate control
1383 *	algorithm.
1384 *	Note that this requires that the driver implement a number of
1385 *	callbacks so it has the correct information, it needs to have
1386 *	the @set_rts_threshold callback and must look at the BSS config
1387 *	@use_cts_prot for G/N protection, @use_short_slot for slot
1388 *	timing in 2.4 GHz and @use_short_preamble for preambles for
1389 *	CCK frames.
1390 *
1391 * @IEEE80211_HW_RX_INCLUDES_FCS:
1392 *	Indicates that received frames passed to the stack include
1393 *	the FCS at the end.
1394 *
1395 * @IEEE80211_HW_HOST_BROADCAST_PS_BUFFERING:
1396 *	Some wireless LAN chipsets buffer broadcast/multicast frames
1397 *	for power saving stations in the hardware/firmware and others
1398 *	rely on the host system for such buffering. This option is used
1399 *	to configure the IEEE 802.11 upper layer to buffer broadcast and
1400 *	multicast frames when there are power saving stations so that
1401 *	the driver can fetch them with ieee80211_get_buffered_bc().
1402 *
1403 * @IEEE80211_HW_2GHZ_SHORT_SLOT_INCAPABLE:
1404 *	Hardware is not capable of short slot operation on the 2.4 GHz band.
1405 *
1406 * @IEEE80211_HW_2GHZ_SHORT_PREAMBLE_INCAPABLE:
1407 *	Hardware is not capable of receiving frames with short preamble on
1408 *	the 2.4 GHz band.
1409 *
1410 * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC:
1411 *	Hardware can provide signal values but we don't know its units. We
1412 *	expect values between 0 and @max_signal.
1413 *	If possible please provide dB or dBm instead.
1414 *
1415 * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM:
1416 *	Hardware gives signal values in dBm, decibel difference from
1417 *	one milliwatt. This is the preferred method since it is standardized
1418 *	between different devices. @max_signal does not need to be set.
1419 *
1420 * @IEEE80211_HW_SPECTRUM_MGMT:
1421 * 	Hardware supports spectrum management defined in 802.11h
1422 * 	Measurement, Channel Switch, Quieting, TPC
1423 *
1424 * @IEEE80211_HW_AMPDU_AGGREGATION:
1425 *	Hardware supports 11n A-MPDU aggregation.
1426 *
1427 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS:
1428 *	Hardware has power save support (i.e. can go to sleep).
1429 *
1430 * @IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK:
1431 *	Hardware requires nullfunc frame handling in stack, implies
1432 *	stack support for dynamic PS.
1433 *
1434 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS:
1435 *	Hardware has support for dynamic PS.
1436 *
1437 * @IEEE80211_HW_MFP_CAPABLE:
1438 *	Hardware supports management frame protection (MFP, IEEE 802.11w).
1439 *
1440 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_STATIC_SMPS:
1441 *	Hardware supports static spatial multiplexing powersave,
1442 *	ie. can turn off all but one chain even on HT connections
1443 *	that should be using more chains.
1444 *
1445 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_SMPS:
1446 *	Hardware supports dynamic spatial multiplexing powersave,
1447 *	ie. can turn off all but one chain and then wake the rest
1448 *	up as required after, for example, rts/cts handshake.
1449 *
1450 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD:
1451 *	Hardware supports Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery
1452 *	(U-APSD) in managed mode. The mode is configured with
1453 *	conf_tx() operation.
1454 *
1455 * @IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS:
1456 *	Hardware can provide ack status reports of Tx frames to
1457 *	the stack.
1458 *
1459 * @IEEE80211_HW_CONNECTION_MONITOR:
1460 *	The hardware performs its own connection monitoring, including
1461 *	periodic keep-alives to the AP and probing the AP on beacon loss.
1462 *	When this flag is set, signaling beacon-loss will cause an immediate
1463 *	change to disassociated state.
1464 *
1465 * @IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_BEFORE_ASSOC:
1466 *	This device needs to get data from beacon before association (i.e.
1467 *	dtim_period).
1468 *
1469 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PER_STA_GTK: The device's crypto engine supports
1470 *	per-station GTKs as used by IBSS RSN or during fast transition. If
1471 *	the device doesn't support per-station GTKs, but can be asked not
1472 *	to decrypt group addressed frames, then IBSS RSN support is still
1473 *	possible but software crypto will be used. Advertise the wiphy flag
1474 *	only in that case.
1475 *
1476 * @IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS: When operating in AP mode the device
1477 *	autonomously manages the PS status of connected stations. When
1478 *	this flag is set mac80211 will not trigger PS mode for connected
1479 *	stations based on the PM bit of incoming frames.
1480 *	Use ieee80211_start_ps()/ieee8021_end_ps() to manually configure
1481 *	the PS mode of connected stations.
1482 *
1483 * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_AMPDU_SETUP_IN_HW: The device handles TX A-MPDU session
1484 *	setup strictly in HW. mac80211 should not attempt to do this in
1485 *	software.
1486 *
1487 * @IEEE80211_HW_WANT_MONITOR_VIF: The driver would like to be informed of
1488 *	a virtual monitor interface when monitor interfaces are the only
1489 *	active interfaces.
1490 *
1491 * @IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL: The driver wants to control per-interface
1492 *	queue mapping in order to use different queues (not just one per AC)
1493 *	for different virtual interfaces. See the doc section on HW queue
1494 *	control for more details.
1495 *
1496 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_RC_TABLE: The driver supports using a rate
1497 *	selection table provided by the rate control algorithm.
1498 *
1499 * @IEEE80211_HW_P2P_DEV_ADDR_FOR_INTF: Use the P2P Device address for any
1500 *	P2P Interface. This will be honoured even if more than one interface
1501 *	is supported.
1502 *
1503 * @IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY: Use sync timing from beacon frames
1504 *	only, to allow getting TBTT of a DTIM beacon.
1505 *
1506 * @IEEE80211_HW_CHANCTX_STA_CSA: Support 802.11h based channel-switch (CSA)
1507 *	for a single active channel while using channel contexts. When support
1508 *	is not enabled the default action is to disconnect when getting the
1509 *	CSA frame.

1599 *	sub-frames) to be used for A-MPDU block ack receiver
1600 *	aggregation.
1601 *	This is only relevant if the device has restrictions on the

1739 * DOC: Hardware crypto acceleration
1740 *
1741 * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware
1742 * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.
1743 *
1744 * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1745 * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
1746 * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1747 * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1748 * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
1749 * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1750 * VLANs are configured for an access point.
1751 *
1752 * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1753 * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1754 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1755 *
1756 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1757 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1758 * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
1759 * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
1760 *
1761 * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
1762 *
1763 * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
1764 * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
1765 * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
1766 * based on the receive flags.
1767 *
1768 * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
1769 * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
1770 * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
1771 * keys.
1772 *
1773 * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
1774 * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
1775 * handler.
1776 * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
1777 * This happens every time the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
1778 * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
1779 * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
1780 * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
1781 * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.
1782 *
1783 * The set_default_unicast_key() call updates the default WEP key index
1784 * configured to the hardware for WEP encryption type. This is required
1785 * for devices that support offload of data packets (e.g. ARP responses).

1788/**
1789 * DOC: Powersave support
1790 *
1791 * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
1792 *
1793 * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
1794 * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
1795 * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
1796 * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
1797 * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
1798 * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
1799 * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
1800 * it finds traffic directed to it.
1801 *
1802 * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
1803 * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
1804 * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
1805 * up the hardware before issuing commands to the hardware and putting it
1806 * back to sleep at appropriate times.
1807 *
1808 * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
1809 * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
1810 * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
1811 *
1812 * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1813 * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1814 * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1815 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
1816 * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
1817 * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
1818 * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
1819 *
1820 * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
1821 * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
1822 * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
1823 * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
1824 * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
1825 * periods.
1826 *
1827 * Dynamic powersave is simply supported by mac80211 enabling and disabling
1828 * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1829 * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
1830 * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
1831 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
1832 * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
1833 * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
1834 * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
1835 * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
1836 * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
1837 *
1838 * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
1839 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
1840 * uapsd paramater in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
1841 * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
1842 * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
1843 * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.
1844 *
1845 * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with
1846 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK.

1849/**
1850 * DOC: Beacon filter support
1851 *
1852 * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1853 * which will reduce system power consumption. It usually works so that
1854 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1855 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
1856 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
1857 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1858 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1859 *
1860 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER
1861 * interface capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
1862 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
1863 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
1864 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
1865 *
1866 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
1867 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
1868 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
1869 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
1870 *
1871 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
1872 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
1873 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
1874 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
1875 *  - a list of information element IDs
1876 *  - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
1877 *
1878 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
1879 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
1880 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
1881 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
1882 * vendor information elements.
1883 *
1884 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
1885 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
1886 *
1887 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
1888 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
1889 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
1890 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
1891 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
1892 * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
1893 *
1894 *
1895 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
1896 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
1897 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
1898 * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
1899 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
1900 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
1901 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
1902 * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
1903 *
1904 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
1905 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
1906 * signal strength threshold checking.

1910 * DOC: Spatial multiplexing power save
1911 *
1912 * SMPS (Spatial multiplexing power save) is a mechanism to conserve
1913 * power in an 802.11n implementation. For details on the mechanism
1914 * and rationale, please refer to 802.11 (as amended by 802.11n-2009)
1915 * "11.2.3 SM power save".
1916 *
1917 * The mac80211 implementation is capable of sending action frames
1918 * to update the AP about the station's SMPS mode, and will instruct
1919 * the driver to enter the specific mode. It will also announce the

1925 * defines to be dynamic SMPS in (regular) powersave, and SMPS
1926 * turned off otherwise.
1927 *
1928 * To support this feature, the driver must set the appropriate
1929 * hardware support flags, and handle the SMPS flag to the config()

1934/**
1935 * DOC: Frame filtering
1936 *
1937 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
1938 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
1939 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
1940 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1941 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1942 *
1943 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
1944 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
1945 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
1946 *
1947 * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
1948 * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
1949 * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
1950 * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
1951 * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
1952 * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
1953 * @total_flags with the new flag states.
1954 *
1955 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
1956 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
1957 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
1958 * or dropped.
1959 *
1960 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
1961 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
1962 * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
1963 * the flag, but not clear it.
1964 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
1965 * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
1966 * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
1967 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1968 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1969 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1970 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
1971 * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.

1974/**
1975 * DOC: AP support for powersaving clients
1976 *
1977 * In order to implement AP and P2P GO modes, mac80211 has support for
1978 * client powersaving, both "legacy" PS (PS-Poll/null data) and uAPSD.
1979 * There currently is no support for sAPSD.
1980 *
1981 * There is one assumption that mac80211 makes, namely that a client
1982 * will not poll with PS-Poll and trigger with uAPSD at the same time.
1983 * Both are supported, and both can be used by the same client, but
1984 * they can't be used concurrently by the same client. This simplifies
1985 * the driver code.
1986 *
1987 * The first thing to keep in mind is that there is a flag for complete
1988 * driver implementation: %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS. If this flag is set,
1989 * mac80211 expects the driver to handle most of the state machine for
1990 * powersaving clients and will ignore the PM bit in incoming frames.
1991 * Drivers then use ieee80211_sta_ps_transition() to inform mac80211 of
1992 * stations' powersave transitions. In this mode, mac80211 also doesn't
1993 * handle PS-Poll/uAPSD.
1994 *
1995 * In the mode without %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS, mac80211 will check the
1996 * PM bit in incoming frames for client powersave transitions. When a
1997 * station goes to sleep, we will stop transmitting to it. There is,
1998 * however, a race condition: a station might go to sleep while there is
1999 * data buffered on hardware queues. If the device has support for this
2000 * it will reject frames, and the driver should give the frames back to
2001 * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED flag set which will
2002 * cause mac80211 to retry the frame when the station wakes up. The
2003 * driver is also notified of powersave transitions by calling its
2004 * @sta_notify callback.
2005 *
2006 * When the station is asleep, it has three choices: it can wake up,
2007 * it can PS-Poll, or it can possibly start a uAPSD service period.
2008 * Waking up is implemented by simply transmitting all buffered (and
2009 * filtered) frames to the station. This is the easiest case. When
2010 * the station sends a PS-Poll or a uAPSD trigger frame, mac80211
2011 * will inform the driver of this with the @allow_buffered_frames
2012 * callback; this callback is optional. mac80211 will then transmit
2013 * the frames as usual and set the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER
2014 * on each frame. The last frame in the service period (or the only
2015 * response to a PS-Poll) also has %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set to
2016 * indicate that it ends the service period; as this frame must have
2017 * TX status report it also sets %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS.
2018 * When TX status is reported for this frame, the service period is
2019 * marked has having ended and a new one can be started by the peer.
2020 *
2021 * Additionally, non-bufferable MMPDUs can also be transmitted by
2022 * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER set in them.
2023 *
2024 * Another race condition can happen on some devices like iwlwifi
2025 * when there are frames queued for the station and it wakes up
2026 * or polls; the frames that are already queued could end up being
2027 * transmitted first instead, causing reordering and/or wrong
2028 * processing of the EOSP. The cause is that allowing frames to be
2029 * transmitted to a certain station is out-of-band communication to
2030 * the device. To allow this problem to be solved, the driver can
2031 * call ieee80211_sta_block_awake() if frames are buffered when it
2032 * is notified that the station went to sleep. When all these frames
2033 * have been filtered (see above), it must call the function again
2034 * to indicate that the station is no longer blocked.
2035 *
2036 * If the driver buffers frames in the driver for aggregation in any
2037 * way, it must use the ieee80211_sta_set_buffered() call when it is
2038 * notified of the station going to sleep to inform mac80211 of any
2039 * TIDs that have frames buffered. Note that when a station wakes up
2040 * this information is reset (hence the requirement to call it when
2041 * informed of the station going to sleep). Then, when a service
2042 * period starts for any reason, @release_buffered_frames is called
2043 * with the number of frames to be released and which TIDs they are
2044 * to come from. In this case, the driver is responsible for setting
2045 * the EOSP (for uAPSD) and MORE_DATA bits in the released frames,
2046 * to help the @more_data paramter is passed to tell the driver if
2047 * there is more data on other TIDs -- the TIDs to release frames
2048 * from are ignored since mac80211 doesn't know how many frames the
2049 * buffers for those TIDs contain.
2050 *
2051 * If the driver also implement GO mode, where absence periods may
2052 * shorten service periods (or abort PS-Poll responses), it must
2053 * filter those response frames except in the case of frames that
2054 * are buffered in the driver -- those must remain buffered to avoid
2055 * reordering. Because it is possible that no frames are released
2056 * in this case, the driver must call ieee80211_sta_eosp()
2057 * to indicate to mac80211 that the service period ended anyway.
2058 *
2059 * Finally, if frames from multiple TIDs are released from mac80211
2060 * but the driver might reorder them, it must clear & set the flags
2061 * appropriately (only the last frame may have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP)
2062 * and also take care of the EOSP and MORE_DATA bits in the frame.
2063 * The driver may also use ieee80211_sta_eosp() in this case.

2066/**
2067 * DOC: HW queue control
2068 *
2069 * Before HW queue control was introduced, mac80211 only had a single static
2070 * assignment of per-interface AC software queues to hardware queues. This
2071 * was problematic for a few reasons:
2072 * 1) off-channel transmissions might get stuck behind other frames
2073 * 2) multiple virtual interfaces couldn't be handled correctly
2074 * 3) after-DTIM frames could get stuck behind other frames
2075 *
2076 * To solve this, hardware typically uses multiple different queues for all
2077 * the different usages, and this needs to be propagated into mac80211 so it
2078 * won't have the same problem with the software queues.
2079 *
2080 * Therefore, mac80211 now offers the %IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL capability
2081 * flag that tells it that the driver implements its own queue control. To do
2082 * so, the driver will set up the various queues in each &struct ieee80211_vif
2083 * and the offchannel queue in &struct ieee80211_hw. In response, mac80211 will
2084 * use those queue IDs in the hw_queue field of &struct ieee80211_tx_info and
2085 * if necessary will queue the frame on the right software queue that mirrors
2086 * the hardware queue.
2087 * Additionally, the driver has to then use these HW queue IDs for the queue
2088 * management functions (ieee80211_stop_queue() et al.)
2089 *
2090 * The driver is free to set up the queue mappings as needed, multiple virtual
2091 * interfaces may map to the same hardware queues if needed. The setup has to
2092 * happen during add_interface or change_interface callbacks. For example, a
2093 * driver supporting station+station and station+AP modes might decide to have
2094 * 10 hardware queues to handle different scenarios:
2095 *
2096 * 4 AC HW queues for 1st vif: 0, 1, 2, 3
2097 * 4 AC HW queues for 2nd vif: 4, 5, 6, 7
2098 * after-DTIM queue for AP:   8
2099 * off-channel queue:         9
2100 *
2101 * It would then set up the hardware like this:
2102 *   hw.offchannel_tx_hw_queue = 9
2103 *
2104 * and the first virtual interface that is added as follows:
2105 *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VO] = 0
2106 *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VI] = 1
2107 *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BE] = 2
2108 *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BK] = 3
2109 *   vif.cab_queue = 8 // if AP mode, otherwise %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2110 * and the second virtual interface with 4-7.
2111 *
2112 * If queue 6 gets full, for example, mac80211 would only stop the second
2113 * virtual interface's BE queue since virtual interface queues are per AC.
2114 *
2115 * Note that the vif.cab_queue value should be set to %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2116 * whenever the queue is not used (i.e. the interface is not in AP mode) if the
2117 * queue could potentially be shared since mac80211 will look at cab_queue when
2118 * a queue is stopped/woken even if the interface is not in AP mode.

2127 * but this has negative impact on power consumption.
2128 *
2129 * @FIF_PROMISC_IN_BSS: promiscuous mode within your BSS,
2130 *	think of the BSS as your network segment and then this corresponds
2131 *	to the regular ethernet device promiscuous mode.
2132 *
2133 * @FIF_ALLMULTI: pass all multicast frames, this is used if requested
2134 *	by the user or if the hardware is not capable of filtering by
2135 *	multicast address.
2136 *
2137 * @FIF_FCSFAIL: pass frames with failed FCS (but you need to set the
2138 *	%RX_FLAG_FAILED_FCS_CRC for them)
2139 *
2140 * @FIF_PLCPFAIL: pass frames with failed PLCP CRC (but you need to set
2141 *	the %RX_FLAG_FAILED_PLCP_CRC for them
2142 *
2143 * @FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC: This flag is set during scanning to indicate
2144 *	to the hardware that it should not filter beacons or probe responses
2145 *	by BSSID. Filtering them can greatly reduce the amount of processing
2146 *	mac80211 needs to do and the amount of CPU wakeups, so you should
2147 *	honour this flag if possible.
2148 *
2149 * @FIF_CONTROL: pass control frames (except for PS Poll), if PROMISC_IN_BSS
2150 * 	is not set then only those addressed to this station.
2151 *
2152 * @FIF_OTHER_BSS: pass frames destined to other BSSes

2258/**
2259 * struct ieee80211_ops - callbacks from mac80211 to the driver
2260 *
2261 * This structure contains various callbacks that the driver may
2262 * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
2263 * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
2264 *
2265 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
2266 *	skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
2267 *	The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
2268 *	configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
2269 *	preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately.
2270 *	Must be atomic.
2271 *
2272 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
2273 *	is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
2274 *	frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
2275 *	Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
2276 *	or zero.
2277 *	When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
2278 *	to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
2279 *	is added.
2280 *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
2281 *
2282 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
2283 *	is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
2284 *	it must turn off frame reception.)
2285 *	May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
2286 *	an interface. If you added any work onto the mac80211 workqueue
2287 *	you should ensure to cancel it on this callback.
2288 *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
2289 *
2290 * @suspend: Suspend the device; mac80211 itself will quiesce before and
2291 *	stop transmitting and doing any other configuration, and then
2292 *	ask the device to suspend. This is only invoked when WoWLAN is
2293 *	configured, otherwise the device is deconfigured completely and
2294 *	reconfigured at resume time.
2295 *	The driver may also impose special conditions under which it
2296 *	wants to use the "normal" suspend (deconfigure), say if it only
2297 *	supports WoWLAN when the device is associated. In this case, it
2298 *	must return 1 from this function.
2299 *
2300 * @resume: If WoWLAN was configured, this indicates that mac80211 is
2301 *	now resuming its operation, after this the device must be fully
2302 *	functional again. If this returns an error, the only way out is
2303 *	to also unregister the device. If it returns 1, then mac80211
2304 *	will also go through the regular complete restart on resume.
2305 *
2306 * @set_wakeup: Enable or disable wakeup when WoWLAN configuration is
2307 *	modified. The reason is that device_set_wakeup_enable() is
2308 *	supposed to be called when the configuration changes, not only
2309 *	in suspend().
2310 *
2311 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
2312 *	enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
2313 *	and @stop must be implemented.
2314 *	The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
2315 *	the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
2316 *	interface is given in the conf parameter.
2317 *	The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
2318 *	negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
2319 *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
2320 *
2321 * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback
2322 *	is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be
2323 *	switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep.
2324 *	Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be
2325 *	found by the interface iteration callbacks.
2326 *
2327 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
2328 *	The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
2329 *	and no monitor interfaces are present.
2330 *	When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
2331 *	must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
2332 *	the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
2333 *	MAC address of the device going away.
2334 *	Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.
2335 *
2336 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
2337 *	function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
2338 *	This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
2339 *	if it does. The callback can sleep.
2340 *
2341 * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
2342 *	parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
2343 *	level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
2344 *	This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
2345 *	for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
2346 *	of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback
2347 *	can sleep.
2348 *
2349 * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration.
2350 *	This callback is optional, and its return value is passed
2351 *	to configure_filter(). This callback must be atomic.
2352 *
2353 * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
2354 *	See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
2355 *	This callback must be implemented and can sleep.
2356 *
2357 * @set_multicast_list: Configure the device's interface specific RX multicast
2358 *	filter. This callback is optional. This callback must be atomic.
2359 *
2360 * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
2361 * 	must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
2362 *
2363 * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2364 *	This callback is only called between add_interface and
2365 *	remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
2366 *	is enabled.
2367 *	Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
2368 *	The callback can sleep.
2369 *
2370 * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2371 * 	This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
2372 * 	which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
2373 *	The callback must be atomic.
2374 *
2375 * @set_rekey_data: If the device supports GTK rekeying, for example while the
2376 *	host is suspended, it can assign this callback to retrieve the data
2377 *	necessary to do GTK rekeying, this is the KEK, KCK and replay counter.
2378 *	After rekeying was done it should (for example during resume) notify
2379 *	userspace of the new replay counter using ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify().
2380 *
2381 * @set_default_unicast_key: Set the default (unicast) key index, useful for
2382 *	WEP when the device sends data packets autonomously, e.g. for ARP
2383 *	offloading. The index can be 0-3, or -1 for unsetting it.
2384 *
2385 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
2386 *	the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
2387 *	configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
2388 *	registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
2389 *	that power save is disabled.
2390 *	The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
2391 *	entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
2392 *	at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
2393 *	(extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
2394 *	When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
2395 *	note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
2396 *	any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
2397 *	The callback can sleep.
2398 *
2399 * @cancel_hw_scan: Ask the low-level tp cancel the active hw scan.
2400 *	The driver should ask the hardware to cancel the scan (if possible),
2401 *	but the scan will be completed only after the driver will call
2402 *	ieee80211_scan_completed().
2403 *	This callback is needed for wowlan, to prevent enqueueing a new
2404 *	scan_work after the low-level driver was already suspended.
2405 *	The callback can sleep.
2406 *
2407 * @sched_scan_start: Ask the hardware to start scanning repeatedly at
2408 *	specific intervals.  The driver must call the
2409 *	ieee80211_sched_scan_results() function whenever it finds results.
2410 *	This process will continue until sched_scan_stop is called.
2411 *
2412 * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the hardware to stop an ongoing scheduled scan.
2413 *
2414 * @sw_scan_start: Notifier function that is called just before a software scan
2415 *	is started. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
2416 *	The callback can sleep.
2417 *
2418 * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a
2419 *	software scan finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need
2420 *	this notification.
2421 *	The callback can sleep.
2422 *
2423 * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
2424 * 	Returns zero if statistics are available.
2425 *	The callback can sleep.
2426 *
2427 * @get_tkip_seq: If your device implements TKIP encryption in hardware this
2428 *	callback should be provided to read the TKIP transmit IVs (both IV32
2429 *	and IV16) for the given key from hardware.
2430 *	The callback must be atomic.
2431 *
2432 * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this
2433 *	if the device does fragmentation by itself; if this callback is
2434 *	implemented then the stack will not do fragmentation.
2435 *	The callback can sleep.
2436 *
2437 * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
2438 *	The callback can sleep.
2439 *
2440 * @sta_add: Notifies low level driver about addition of an associated station,
2441 *	AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
2442 *
2443 * @sta_remove: Notifies low level driver about removal of an associated
2444 *	station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
2445 *
2446 * @sta_add_debugfs: Drivers can use this callback to add debugfs files
2447 *	when a station is added to mac80211's station list. This callback
2448 *	and @sta_remove_debugfs should be within a CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS
2449 *	conditional. This callback can sleep.
2450 *
2451 * @sta_remove_debugfs: Remove the debugfs files which were added using
2452 *	@sta_add_debugfs. This callback can sleep.
2453 *
2454 * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about power state transition of an
2455 *	associated station, AP,  IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. For a VIF operating
2456 *	in AP mode, this callback will not be called when the flag
2457 *	%IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS is set. Must be atomic.
2458 *
2459 * @sta_state: Notifies low level driver about state transition of a
2460 *	station (which can be the AP, a client, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc.)
2461 *	This callback is mutually exclusive with @sta_add/@sta_remove.
2462 *	It must not fail for down transitions but may fail for transitions
2463 *	up the list of states.
2464 *	The callback can sleep.
2465 *
2466 * @sta_rc_update: Notifies the driver of changes to the bitrates that can be
2467 *	used to transmit to the station. The changes are advertised with bits
2468 *	from &enum ieee80211_rate_control_changed and the values are reflected
2469 *	in the station data. This callback should only be used when the driver
2470 *	uses hardware rate control (%IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL) since
2471 *	otherwise the rate control algorithm is notified directly.
2472 *	Must be atomic.
2473 *
2474 * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
2475 *	bursting) for a hardware TX queue.
2476 *	Returns a negative error code on failure.
2477 *	The callback can sleep.
2478 *
2479 * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
2480 *	this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a
2481 *	required function.
2482 *	The callback can sleep.
2483 *
2484 * @set_tsf: Set the TSF timer to the specified value in the firmware/hardware.
2485 *	Currently, this is only used for IBSS mode debugging. Is not a
2486 *	required function.
2487 *	The callback can sleep.
2488 *
2489 * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
2490 *	with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
2491 *	function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
2492 *	TSF synchronization.
2493 *	The callback can sleep.
2494 *
2495 * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
2496 *	This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
2497 *	used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
2498 *	Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon.
2499 *	The callback can sleep.
2500 *
2501 * @ampdu_action: Perform a certain A-MPDU action
2502 * 	The RA/TID combination determines the destination and TID we want
2503 * 	the ampdu action to be performed for. The action is defined through
2504 * 	ieee80211_ampdu_mlme_action. Starting sequence number (@ssn)
2505 * 	is the first frame we expect to perform the action on. Notice
2506 * 	that TX/RX_STOP can pass NULL for this parameter.
2507 *	The @buf_size parameter is only valid when the action is set to
2508 *	%IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL and indicates the peer's reorder
2509 *	buffer size (number of subframes) for this session -- the driver
2510 *	may neither send aggregates containing more subframes than this
2511 *	nor send aggregates in a way that lost frames would exceed the
2512 *	buffer size. If just limiting the aggregate size, this would be
2513 *	possible with a buf_size of 8:
2514 *	 - TX: 1.....7
2515 *	 - RX:  2....7 (lost frame #1)
2516 *	 - TX:        8..1...
2517 *	which is invalid since #1 was now re-transmitted well past the
2518 *	buffer size of 8. Correct ways to retransmit #1 would be:
2519 *	 - TX:       1 or 18 or 81
2520 *	Even "189" would be wrong since 1 could be lost again.
2521 *
2522 *	Returns a negative error code on failure.
2523 *	The callback can sleep.
2524 *
2525 * @get_survey: Return per-channel survey information
2526 *
2527 * @rfkill_poll: Poll rfkill hardware state. If you need this, you also
2528 *	need to set wiphy->rfkill_poll to %true before registration,
2529 *	and need to call wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state() in the callback.
2530 *	The callback can sleep.
2531 *
2532 * @set_coverage_class: Set slot time for given coverage class as specified
2533 *	in IEEE 802.11-2007 section 17.3.8.6 and modify ACK timeout
2534 *	accordingly. This callback is not required and may sleep.
2535 *
2536 * @testmode_cmd: Implement a cfg80211 test mode command. The passed @vif may
2537 *	be %NULL. The callback can sleep.
2538 * @testmode_dump: Implement a cfg80211 test mode dump. The callback can sleep.
2539 *
2540 * @flush: Flush all pending frames from the hardware queue, making sure
2541 *	that the hardware queues are empty. The @queues parameter is a bitmap
2542 *	of queues to flush, which is useful if different virtual interfaces
2543 *	use different hardware queues; it may also indicate all queues.
2544 *	If the parameter @drop is set to %true, pending frames may be dropped.
2545 *	The callback can sleep.
2546 *
2547 * @channel_switch: Drivers that need (or want) to offload the channel
2548 *	switch operation for CSAs received from the AP may implement this
2549 *	callback. They must then call ieee80211_chswitch_done() to indicate
2550 *	completion of the channel switch.
2551 *
2552 * @napi_poll: Poll Rx queue for incoming data frames.
2553 *
2554 * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device.
2555 *	Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may
2556 *	reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL
2557 *	(also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX).
2558 *
2559 * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant).
2560 *
2561 * @remain_on_channel: Starts an off-channel period on the given channel, must
2562 *	call back to ieee80211_ready_on_channel() when on that channel. Note
2563 *	that normal channel traffic is not stopped as this is intended for hw
2564 *	offload. Frames to transmit on the off-channel channel are transmitted
2565 *	normally except for the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN flag. When the
2566 *	duration (which will always be non-zero) expires, the driver must call
2567 *	ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired().
2568 *	Note that this callback may be called while the device is in IDLE and
2569 *	must be accepted in this case.
2570 *	This callback may sleep.
2571 * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Requests that an ongoing off-channel period is
2572 *	aborted before it expires. This callback may sleep.
2573 *
2574 * @set_ringparam: Set tx and rx ring sizes.
2575 *
2576 * @get_ringparam: Get tx and rx ring current and maximum sizes.
2577 *
2578 * @tx_frames_pending: Check if there is any pending frame in the hardware
2579 *	queues before entering power save.
2580 *
2581 * @set_bitrate_mask: Set a mask of rates to be used for rate control selection
2582 *	when transmitting a frame. Currently only legacy rates are handled.
2583 *	The callback can sleep.
2584 * @rssi_callback: Notify driver when the average RSSI goes above/below
2585 *	thresholds that were registered previously. The callback can sleep.
2586 *
2587 * @release_buffered_frames: Release buffered frames according to the given
2588 *	parameters. In the case where the driver buffers some frames for
2589 *	sleeping stations mac80211 will use this callback to tell the driver
2590 *	to release some frames, either for PS-poll or uAPSD.
2591 *	Note that if the @more_data paramter is %false the driver must check
2592 *	if there are more frames on the given TIDs, and if there are more than
2593 *	the frames being released then it must still set the more-data bit in
2594 *	the frame. If the @more_data parameter is %true, then of course the
2595 *	more-data bit must always be set.
2596 *	The @tids parameter tells the driver which TIDs to release frames
2597 *	from, for PS-poll it will always have only a single bit set.
2598 *	In the case this is used for a PS-poll initiated release, the
2599 *	@num_frames parameter will always be 1 so code can be shared. In
2600 *	this case the driver must also set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
2601 *	on the TX status (and must report TX status) so that the PS-poll
2602 *	period is properly ended. This is used to avoid sending multiple
2603 *	responses for a retried PS-poll frame.
2604 *	In the case this is used for uAPSD, the @num_frames parameter may be
2605 *	bigger than one, but the driver may send fewer frames (it must send
2606 *	at least one, however). In this case it is also responsible for
2607 *	setting the EOSP flag in the QoS header of the frames. Also, when the
2608 *	service period ends, the driver must set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP
2609 *	on the last frame in the SP. Alternatively, it may call the function
2610 *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() to inform mac80211 of the end of the SP.
2611 *	This callback must be atomic.
2612 * @allow_buffered_frames: Prepare device to allow the given number of frames
2613 *	to go out to the given station. The frames will be sent by mac80211
2614 *	via the usual TX path after this call. The TX information for frames
2615 *	released will also have the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER flag set
2616 *	and the last one will also have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set. In case
2617 *	frames from multiple TIDs are released and the driver might reorder
2618 *	them between the TIDs, it must set the %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
2619 *	on the last frame and clear it on all others and also handle the EOSP
2620 *	bit in the QoS header correctly. Alternatively, it can also call the
2621 *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() function.
2622 *	The @tids parameter is a bitmap and tells the driver which TIDs the
2623 *	frames will be on; it will at most have two bits set.
2624 *	This callback must be atomic.
2625 *
2626 * @get_et_sset_count:  Ethtool API to get string-set count.
2627 *
2628 * @get_et_stats:  Ethtool API to get a set of u64 stats.
2629 *
2630 * @get_et_strings:  Ethtool API to get a set of strings to describe stats
2631 *	and perhaps other supported types of ethtool data-sets.
2632 *
2633 * @get_rssi: Get current signal strength in dBm, the function is optional
2634 *	and can sleep.
2635 *
2636 * @mgd_prepare_tx: Prepare for transmitting a management frame for association
2637 *	before associated. In multi-channel scenarios, a virtual interface is
2638 *	bound to a channel before it is associated, but as it isn't associated
2639 *	yet it need not necessarily be given airtime, in particular since any
2640 *	transmission to a P2P GO needs to be synchronized against the GO's
2641 *	powersave state. mac80211 will call this function before transmitting a
2642 *	management frame prior to having successfully associated to allow the
2643 *	driver to give it channel time for the transmission, to get a response
2644 *	and to be able to synchronize with the GO.
2645 *	The callback will be called before each transmission and upon return
2646 *	mac80211 will transmit the frame right away.
2647 *	The callback is optional and can (should!) sleep.
2648 *
2649 * @add_chanctx: Notifies device driver about new channel context creation.
2650 * @remove_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context destruction.
2651 * @change_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context changes that
2652 *	may happen when combining different virtual interfaces on the same
2653 *	channel context with different settings
2654 * @assign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being bound
2655 *	to vif. Possible use is for hw queue remapping.
2656 * @unassign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being
2657 *	unbound from vif.
2658 * @start_ap: Start operation on the AP interface, this is called after all the
2659 *	information in bss_conf is set and beacon can be retrieved. A channel
2660 *	context is bound before this is called. Note that if the driver uses
2661 *	software scan or ROC, this (and @stop_ap) isn't called when the AP is
2662 *	just "paused" for scanning/ROC, which is indicated by the beacon being
2663 *	disabled/enabled via @bss_info_changed.
2664 * @stop_ap: Stop operation on the AP interface.
2665 *
2666 * @restart_complete: Called after a call to ieee80211_restart_hw(), when the
2667 *	reconfiguration has completed. This can help the driver implement the
2668 *	reconfiguration step. Also called when reconfiguring because the
2669 *	driver's resume function returned 1, as this is just like an "inline"
2670 *	hardware restart. This callback may sleep.
2671 *
2672 * @ipv6_addr_change: IPv6 address assignment on the given interface changed.
2673 *	Currently, this is only called for managed or P2P client interfaces.
2674 *	This callback is optional; it must not sleep.
2675 *
2676 * @channel_switch_beacon: Starts a channel switch to a new channel.
2677 *	Beacons are modified to include CSA or ECSA IEs before calling this
2678 *	function. The corresponding count fields in these IEs must be
2679 *	decremented, and when they reach zero the driver must call
2680 *	ieee80211_csa_finish(). Drivers which use ieee80211_beacon_get()
2681 *	get the csa counter decremented by mac80211, but must check if it is
2682 *	zero using ieee80211_csa_is_complete() after the beacon has been
2683 *	transmitted and then call ieee80211_csa_finish().
2684 *
2685 * @join_ibss: Join an IBSS (on an IBSS interface); this is called after all
2686 *	information in bss_conf is set up and the beacon can be retrieved. A
2687 *	channel context is bound before this is called.
2688 * @leave_ibss: Leave the IBSS again.
