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 */ 46 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 */ 74 75/** 76 * struct ieee80211_ht_bss_info - describing BSS's HT characteristics 77 * 78 * This structure describes most essential parameters needed 79 * to describe 802.11n HT characteristics in a BSS. 80 * 81 * @primary_channel: channel number of primery channel 82 * @bss_cap: 802.11n's general BSS capabilities (e.g. channel width) 83 * @bss_op_mode: 802.11n's BSS operation modes (e.g. HT protection) 84 */ 85struct ieee80211_ht_bss_info { 86 u8 primary_channel; 87 u8 bss_cap; /* use IEEE80211_HT_IE_CHA_ */ 88 u8 bss_op_mode; /* use IEEE80211_HT_IE_ */ 89}; 90 91/** 92 * enum ieee80211_max_queues - maximum number of queues 93 * 94 * @IEEE80211_MAX_QUEUES: Maximum number of regular device queues. 95 */ 96enum ieee80211_max_queues { 97 IEEE80211_MAX_QUEUES = 4, 98}; 99 100/** 101 * struct ieee80211_tx_queue_params - transmit queue configuration 102 * 103 * The information provided in this structure is required for QoS 104 * transmit queue configuration.

It usuallly works so that 1133 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly 1134 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the 1135 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That 1136 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information 1137 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed. 1138 * 1139 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTER 1140 * hardware capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support 1141 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When 1142 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the 1143 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss(). 1144 * 1145 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the 1146 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call 1147 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled 1148 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future. 1149 * 1150 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing 1151 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211 1152 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense 1153 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include 1154 * - a list of information element IDs 1155 * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element 1156 * 1157 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the 1158 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense 1159 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device 1160 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all 1161 * vendor information elements. 1162 * 1163 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information 1164 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon. 1165 * 1166 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing 1167 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing 1168 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and 1169 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136, 1170 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility 1171 * it could also include some currently unused IDs. 1172 * 1173 * 1174 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the 1175 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming 1176 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of 1177 * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when 1178 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above 1179 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be 1180 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement 1181 * them as the roaming algorithm requires. 1182 * 1183 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to 1184 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the 1185 * signal strength threshold checking. 1186 */ 1187 1188/** 1189 * DOC: Frame filtering 1190 * 1191 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper 1192 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when 1193 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption, 1194 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is 1195 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible. 1196 * 1197 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell 1198 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be 1199 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out. 1200 * 1201 * The configure_filter() callback is invoked with the parameters 1202 * @mc_count and @mc_list for the combined multicast address list 1203 * of all virtual interfaces, @changed_flags telling which flags 1204 * were changed and @total_flags with the new flag states. 1205 * 1206 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will 1207 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count 1208 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted 1209 * or dropped. 1210 * 1211 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared. 1212 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_ 1213 * the frame to the stack.
