28  *
29  * mac80211 is the Linux stack for 802.11 hardware that implements
30  * only partial functionality in hard- or firmware. This document
31  * defines the interface between mac80211 and low-level hardware
32  * drivers.

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

57  * DOC: Frame format
58  *
59  * As a general rule, when frames are passed between mac80211 and the driver,
60  * they start with the IEEE 802.11 header and include the same octets that are
61  * sent over the air except for the FCS which should be calculated by the
62  * hardware.
63  *
64  * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features:
65  *
66  * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload
67  * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware.
68  *
69  * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to
70  * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU.

77  * The workqueue is a single threaded workqueue and can only be accessed by
78  * helpers for sanity checking. Drivers must ensure all work added onto the
79  * mac80211 workqueue should be cancelled on the driver stop() callback.
80  *
81  * mac80211 will flushed the workqueue upon interface removal and during
82  * suspend.

88 /**
89  * DOC: mac80211 software tx queueing
90  *
91  * mac80211 provides an optional intermediate queueing implementation designed
92  * to allow the driver to keep hardware queues short and provide some fairness
93  * between different stations/interfaces.
94  * In this model, the driver pulls data frames from the mac80211 queue instead
95  * of letting mac80211 push them via drv_tx().
96  * Other frames (e.g. control or management) are still pushed using drv_tx().
97  *
98  * Drivers indicate that they use this model by implementing the .wake_tx_queue
99  * driver operation.
100  *
101  * Intermediate queues (struct ieee80211_txq) are kept per-sta per-tid, with a
102  * single per-vif queue for multicast data frames.
103  *
104  * The driver is expected to initialize its private per-queue data for stations
105  * and interfaces in the .add_interface and .sta_add ops.
106  *
107  * The driver can't access the queue directly. To dequeue a frame, it calls
108  * ieee80211_tx_dequeue(). Whenever mac80211 adds a new frame to a queue, it
109  * calls the .wake_tx_queue driver op.
110  *
111  * For AP powersave TIM handling, the driver only needs to indicate if it has
112  * buffered packets in the driver specific data structures by calling
113  * ieee80211_sta_set_buffered(). For frames buffered in the ieee80211_txq
114  * struct, mac80211 sets the appropriate TIM PVB bits and calls
115  * .release_buffered_frames().
116  * In that callback the driver is therefore expected to release its own
117  * buffered frames and afterwards also frames from the ieee80211_txq (obtained
118  * via the usual ieee80211_tx_dequeue).

464  * @use_cts_prot: use CTS protection
465  * @use_short_preamble: use 802.11b short preamble
466  * @use_short_slot: use short slot time (only relevant for ERP)
467  * @dtim_period: num of beacons before the next DTIM, for beaconing,
468  *	valid in station mode only if after the driver was notified
469  *	with the %BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_INFO flag, will be non-zero then.
470  * @sync_tsf: last beacon's/probe response's TSF timestamp (could be old
471  *	as it may have been received during scanning long ago). If the
472  *	HW flag %IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY is set, then this can
473  *	only come from a beacon, but might not become valid until after
474  *	association when a beacon is received (which is notified with the
475  *	%BSS_CHANGED_DTIM flag.). See also sync_dtim_count important notice.
476  * @sync_device_ts: the device timestamp corresponding to the sync_tsf,
477  *	the driver/device can use this to calculate synchronisation
478  *	(see @sync_tsf). See also sync_dtim_count important notice.
479  * @sync_dtim_count: Only valid when %IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY
480  *	is requested, see @sync_tsf/@sync_device_ts.
481  *	IMPORTANT: These three sync_* parameters would possibly be out of sync
482  *	by the time the driver will use them. The synchronized view is currently
483  *	guaranteed only in certain callbacks.
484  * @beacon_int: beacon interval
485  * @assoc_capability: capabilities taken from assoc resp
486  * @basic_rates: bitmap of basic rates, each bit stands for an
487  *	index into the rate table configured by the driver in
488  *	the current band.
489  * @beacon_rate: associated AP's beacon TX rate
490  * @mcast_rate: per-band multicast rate index + 1 (0: disabled)
491  * @bssid: The BSSID for this BSS
492  * @enable_beacon: whether beaconing should be enabled or not
493  * @chandef: Channel definition for this BSS -- the hardware might be
494  *	configured a higher bandwidth than this BSS uses, for example.
495  * @mu_group: VHT MU-MIMO group membership data
496  * @ht_operation_mode: HT operation mode like in &struct ieee80211_ht_operation.
497  *	This field is only valid when the channel is a wide HT/VHT channel.
498  *	Note that with TDLS this can be the case (channel is HT, protection must
499  *	be used from this field) even when the BSS association isn't using HT.
500  * @cqm_rssi_thold: Connection quality monitor RSSI threshold, a zero value
501  *	implies disabled. As with the cfg80211 callback, a change here should
502  *	cause an event to be sent indicating where the current value is in
503  *	relation to the newly configured threshold.
504  * @cqm_rssi_hyst: Connection quality monitor RSSI hysteresis
505  * @arp_addr_list: List of IPv4 addresses for hardware ARP filtering. The
506  *	may filter ARP queries targeted for other addresses than listed here.
507  *	The driver must allow ARP queries targeted for all address listed here
508  *	to pass through. An empty list implies no ARP queries need to pass.
509  * @arp_addr_cnt: Number of addresses currently on the list. Note that this
510  *	may be larger than %IEEE80211_BSS_ARP_ADDR_LIST_LEN (the arp_addr_list
511  *	array size), it's up to the driver what to do in that case.
512  * @qos: This is a QoS-enabled BSS.
513  * @idle: This interface is idle. There's also a global idle flag in the
514  *	hardware config which may be more appropriate depending on what
515  *	your driver/device needs to do.
516  * @ps: power-save mode (STA only). This flag is NOT affected by
517  *	offchannel/dynamic_ps operations.
518  * @ssid: The SSID of the current vif. Valid in AP and IBSS mode.
519  * @ssid_len: Length of SSID given in @ssid.
520  * @hidden_ssid: The SSID of the current vif is hidden. Only valid in AP-mode.
521  * @txpower: TX power in dBm
522  * @txpower_type: TX power adjustment used to control per packet Transmit
523  *	Power Control (TPC) in lower driver for the current vif. In particular
524  *	TPC is enabled if value passed in %txpower_type is
525  *	NL80211_TX_POWER_LIMITED (allow using less than specified from
526  *	userspace), whereas TPC is disabled if %txpower_type is set to
527  *	NL80211_TX_POWER_FIXED (use value configured from userspace)
528  * @p2p_noa_attr: P2P NoA attribute for P2P powersave
529  * @allow_p2p_go_ps: indication for AP or P2P GO interface, whether it's allowed
530  *	to use P2P PS mechanism or not. AP/P2P GO is not allowed to use P2P PS
531  *	if it has associated clients without P2P PS support.

572 /**
573  * enum mac80211_tx_info_flags - flags to describe transmission information/status
574  *
575  * These flags are used with the @flags member of &ieee80211_tx_info.
576  *
577  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS: require TX status callback for this frame.
578  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ: The driver has to assign a sequence
579  *	number to this frame, taking care of not overwriting the fragment
580  *	number and increasing the sequence number only when the
581  *	IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT flag is set. mac80211 will properly
582  *	assign sequence numbers to QoS-data frames but cannot do so correctly
583  *	for non-QoS-data and management frames because beacons need them from
584  *	that counter as well and mac80211 cannot guarantee proper sequencing.
585  *	If this flag is set, the driver should instruct the hardware to
586  *	assign a sequence number to the frame or assign one itself. Cf. IEEE
587  *	802.11-2007 7.1.3.4.1 paragraph 3. This flag will always be set for
588  *	beacons and always be clear for frames without a sequence number field.
589  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK: tell the low level not to wait for an ack
590  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT: clear powersave filter for destination
591  *	station
592  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT: this is a first fragment of the frame
593  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_SEND_AFTER_DTIM: send this frame after DTIM beacon
594  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU: this frame should be sent as part of an A-MPDU
595  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_INJECTED: Frame was injected, internal to mac80211.
596  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED: The frame was not transmitted
597  *	because the destination STA was in powersave mode. Note that to
598  *	avoid race conditions, the filter must be set by the hardware or
599  *	firmware upon receiving a frame that indicates that the station
600  *	went to sleep (must be done on device to filter frames already on
601  *	the queue) and may only be unset after mac80211 gives the OK for
602  *	that by setting the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT (see above),
603  *	since only then is it guaranteed that no more frames are in the
604  *	hardware queue.
605  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK: Frame was acknowledged
606  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU: The frame was aggregated, so status
607  * 	is for the whole aggregation.
608  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU_NO_BACK: no block ack was returned,
609  * 	so consider using block ack request (BAR).
610  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_RATE_CTRL_PROBE: internal to mac80211, can be
611  *	set by rate control algorithms to indicate probe rate, will
612  *	be cleared for fragmented frames (except on the last fragment)
613  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_OFFCHAN_TX_OK: Internal to mac80211. Used to indicate
614  *	that a frame can be transmitted while the queues are stopped for
615  *	off-channel operation.
616  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NEED_TXPROCESSING: completely internal to mac80211,
617  *	used to indicate that a pending frame requires TX processing before
618  *	it can be sent out.
619  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRIED: completely internal to mac80211,
620  *	used to indicate that a frame was already retried due to PS
621  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT: completely internal to mac80211,
622  *	used to indicate frame should not be encrypted
623  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER: This frame is a response to a poll
624  *	frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD) or a non-bufferable MMPDU and must
625  *	be sent although the station is in powersave mode.
626  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES: More frames will be passed to the
627  *	transmit function after the current frame, this can be used
628  *	by drivers to kick the DMA queue only if unset or when the
629  *	queue gets full.
630  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRANSMISSION: This frame is being retransmitted
631  *	after TX status because the destination was asleep, it must not
632  *	be modified again (no seqno assignment, crypto, etc.)
633  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_MLME_CONN_TX: This frame was transmitted by the MLME
634  *	code for connection establishment, this indicates that its status
635  *	should kick the MLME state machine.
636  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NL80211_FRAME_TX: Frame was requested through nl80211
637  *	MLME command (internal to mac80211 to figure out whether to send TX
638  *	status to user space)
639  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_LDPC: tells the driver to use LDPC for this frame
640  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_STBC: Enables Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) for this
641  *	frame and selects the maximum number of streams that it can use.
642  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN: Marks this packet to be transmitted on
643  *	the off-channel channel when a remain-on-channel offload is done
644  *	in hardware -- normal packets still flow and are expected to be
645  *	handled properly by the device.
646  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_TKIP_MIC_FAILURE: Marks this packet to be used for TKIP
647  *	testing. It will be sent out with incorrect Michael MIC key to allow
648  *	TKIP countermeasures to be tested.
649  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_CCK_RATE: This frame will be sent at non CCK rate.
650  *	This flag is actually used for management frame especially for P2P
651  *	frames not being sent at CCK rate in 2GHz band.
652  * @IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP: This packet marks the end of service period,
653  *	when its status is reported the service period ends. For frames in
654  *	an SP that mac80211 transmits, it is already set; for driver frames
655  *	the driver may set this flag. It is also used to do the same for
656  *	PS-Poll responses.
657  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_USE_MINRATE: This frame will be sent at lowest rate.
658  *	This flag is used to send nullfunc frame at minimum rate when
659  *	the nullfunc is used for connection monitoring purpose.
660  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_DONTFRAG: Don't fragment this packet even if it
661  *	would be fragmented by size (this is optional, only used for
662  *	monitor injection).
663  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_NOACK_TRANSMITTED: A frame that was marked with
664  *	IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK has been successfully transmitted without
665  *	any errors (like issues specific to the driver/HW).
666  *	This flag must not be set for frames that don't request no-ack
667  *	behaviour with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK.
668  *
669  * Note: If you have to add new flags to the enumeration, then don't
670  *	 forget to update %IEEE80211_TX_TEMPORARY_FLAGS when necessary.

812  *    { 3, 2 }, { 2, 2 }, { 1, 4 }, { -1, 0 }, { -1, 0 }

999  *	Use together with %RX_FLAG_MMIC_STRIPPED.
1000  * @RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED: This frame was decrypted in hardware.
1001  * @RX_FLAG_MMIC_STRIPPED: the Michael MIC is stripped off this frame,
1002  *	verification has been done by the hardware.
1003  * @RX_FLAG_IV_STRIPPED: The IV/ICV are stripped from this frame.
1004  *	If this flag is set, the stack cannot do any replay detection
1005  *	hence the driver or hardware will have to do that.
1006  * @RX_FLAG_PN_VALIDATED: Currently only valid for CCMP/GCMP frames, this
1007  *	flag indicates that the PN was verified for replay protection.
1008  *	Note that this flag is also currently only supported when a frame
1009  *	is also decrypted (ie. @RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED must be set)
1010  * @RX_FLAG_DUP_VALIDATED: The driver should set this flag if it did
1011  *	de-duplication by itself.
1012  * @RX_FLAG_FAILED_FCS_CRC: Set this flag if the FCS check failed on
1013  *	the frame.
1014  * @RX_FLAG_FAILED_PLCP_CRC: Set this flag if the PCLP check failed on
1015  *	the frame.
1016  * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_START: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
1017  *	field) is valid and contains the time the first symbol of the MPDU
1018  *	was received. This is useful in monitor mode and for proper IBSS
1019  *	merging.
1020  * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_END: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
1021  *	field) is valid and contains the time the last symbol of the MPDU
1022  *	(including FCS) was received.
1023  * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_PLCP_START: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
1024  *	field) is valid and contains the time the SYNC preamble was received.
1025  * @RX_FLAG_SHORTPRE: Short preamble was used for this frame
1026  * @RX_FLAG_HT: HT MCS was used and rate_idx is MCS index
1027  * @RX_FLAG_VHT: VHT MCS was used and rate_index is MCS index
1028  * @RX_FLAG_40MHZ: HT40 (40 MHz) was used
1029  * @RX_FLAG_SHORT_GI: Short guard interval was used
1030  * @RX_FLAG_NO_SIGNAL_VAL: The signal strength value is not present.
1031  *	Valid only for data frames (mainly A-MPDU)
1032  * @RX_FLAG_HT_GF: This frame was received in a HT-greenfield transmission, if
1033  *	the driver fills this value it should add %IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_MCS_HAVE_FMT
1034  *	to hw.radiotap_mcs_details to advertise that fact
1035  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DETAILS: A-MPDU details are known, in particular the reference
1036  *	number (@ampdu_reference) must be populated and be a distinct number for
1037  *	each A-MPDU
1038  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_LAST_KNOWN: last subframe is known, should be set on all
1039  *	subframes of a single A-MPDU
1040  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_IS_LAST: this subframe is the last subframe of the A-MPDU
1041  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DELIM_CRC_ERROR: A delimiter CRC error has been detected
1042  *	on this subframe
1043  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DELIM_CRC_KNOWN: The delimiter CRC field is known (the CRC
1044  *	is stored in the @ampdu_delimiter_crc field)
1045  * @RX_FLAG_MIC_STRIPPED: The mic was stripped of this packet. Decryption was
1046  *	done by the hardware
1047  * @RX_FLAG_LDPC: LDPC was used
1048  * @RX_FLAG_ONLY_MONITOR: Report frame only to monitor interfaces without
1049  *	processing it in any regular way.
1050  *	This is useful if drivers offload some frames but still want to report
1051  *	them for sniffing purposes.
1052  * @RX_FLAG_SKIP_MONITOR: Process and report frame to all interfaces except
1053  *	monitor interfaces.
1054  *	This is useful if drivers offload some frames but still want to report
1055  *	them for sniffing purposes.
1056  * @RX_FLAG_STBC_MASK: STBC 2 bit bitmask. 1 - Nss=1, 2 - Nss=2, 3 - Nss=3
1057  * @RX_FLAG_10MHZ: 10 MHz (half channel) was used
1058  * @RX_FLAG_5MHZ: 5 MHz (quarter channel) was used
1059  * @RX_FLAG_AMSDU_MORE: Some drivers may prefer to report separate A-MSDU
1060  *	subframes instead of a one huge frame for performance reasons.
1061  *	All, but the last MSDU from an A-MSDU should have this flag set. E.g.
1062  *	if an A-MSDU has 3 frames, the first 2 must have the flag set, while
1063  *	the 3rd (last) one must not have this flag set. The flag is used to
1064  *	deal with retransmission/duplication recovery properly since A-MSDU
1065  *	subframes share the same sequence number. Reported subframes can be
1066  *	either regular MSDU or singly A-MSDUs. Subframes must not be
1067  *	interleaved with other frames.
1068  * @RX_FLAG_RADIOTAP_VENDOR_DATA: This frame contains vendor-specific
1069  *	radiotap data in the skb->data (before the frame) as described by
1070  *	the &struct ieee80211_vendor_radiotap.

1833  * done in a way that the simplest hardware doesn't need setting
1834  * any particular flags. There are some exceptions to this rule,
1835  * however, so you are advised to review these flags carefully.
1836  *
1837  * @IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL:
1838  *	The hardware or firmware includes rate control, and cannot be
1839  *	controlled by the stack. As such, no rate control algorithm
1840  *	should be instantiated, and the TX rate reported to userspace
1841  *	will be taken from the TX status instead of the rate control
1842  *	algorithm.
1843  *	Note that this requires that the driver implement a number of
1844  *	callbacks so it has the correct information, it needs to have

1852  *	the FCS at the end.
1853  *
1854  * @IEEE80211_HW_HOST_BROADCAST_PS_BUFFERING:
1855  *	Some wireless LAN chipsets buffer broadcast/multicast frames
1856  *	for power saving stations in the hardware/firmware and others
1857  *	rely on the host system for such buffering. This option is used
1858  *	to configure the IEEE 802.11 upper layer to buffer broadcast and
1859  *	multicast frames when there are power saving stations so that
1860  *	the driver can fetch them with ieee80211_get_buffered_bc().
1861  *
1862  * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC:
1863  *	Hardware can provide signal values but we don't know its units. We

1865  *	If possible please provide dB or dBm instead.
1866  *
1867  * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM:
1868  *	Hardware gives signal values in dBm, decibel difference from
1869  *	one milliwatt. This is the preferred method since it is standardized
1870  *	between different devices. @max_signal does not need to be set.

1895  *
1896  * @IEEE80211_HW_CONNECTION_MONITOR:

1909  *	only in that case.
1910  *
1911  * @IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS: When operating in AP mode the device
1912  *	autonomously manages the PS status of connected stations. When
1913  *	this flag is set mac80211 will not trigger PS mode for connected
1914  *	stations based on the PM bit of incoming frames.
1915  *	Use ieee80211_start_ps()/ieee8021_end_ps() to manually configure
1916  *	the PS mode of connected stations.
1917  *
1918  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_AMPDU_SETUP_IN_HW: The device handles TX A-MPDU session
1919  *	setup strictly in HW. mac80211 should not attempt to do this in

1921  *
1922  * @IEEE80211_HW_WANT_MONITOR_VIF: The driver would like to be informed of
1923  *	a virtual monitor interface when monitor interfaces are the only
1924  *	active interfaces.
1925  *
1926  * @IEEE80211_HW_NO_AUTO_VIF: The driver would like for no wlanX to
1927  *	be created.  It is expected user-space will create vifs as
1928  *	desired (and thus have them named as desired).
1929  *
1930  * @IEEE80211_HW_SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL: The driver wants to control which of the
1931  *	crypto algorithms can be done in software - so don't automatically
1932  *	try to fall back to it if hardware crypto fails, but do so only if
1933  *	the driver returns 1. This also forces the driver to advertise its
1934  *	supported cipher suites.
1935  *
1936  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORT_FAST_XMIT: The driver/hardware supports fast-xmit,
1937  *	this currently requires only the ability to calculate the duration
1938  *	for frames.
1939  *
1940  * @IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL: The driver wants to control per-interface
1941  *	queue mapping in order to use different queues (not just one per AC)
1942  *	for different virtual interfaces. See the doc section on HW queue
1943  *	control for more details.
1944  *
1945  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_RC_TABLE: The driver supports using a rate
1946  *	selection table provided by the rate control algorithm.
1947  *
1948  * @IEEE80211_HW_P2P_DEV_ADDR_FOR_INTF: Use the P2P Device address for any
1949  *	P2P Interface. This will be honoured even if more than one interface
1950  *	is supported.
1951  *
1952  * @IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY: Use sync timing from beacon frames
1953  *	only, to allow getting TBTT of a DTIM beacon.
1954  *
1955  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_HT_CCK_RATES: Hardware supports mixing HT/CCK rates
1956  *	and can cope with CCK rates in an aggregation session (e.g. by not
1957  *	using aggregation for such frames.)
1958  *
1959  * @IEEE80211_HW_CHANCTX_STA_CSA: Support 802.11h based channel-switch (CSA)
1960  *	for a single active channel while using channel contexts. When support
1961  *	is not enabled the default action is to disconnect when getting the
1962  *	CSA frame.
1963  *
1964  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_CLONED_SKBS: The driver will never modify the payload
1965  *	or tailroom of TX skbs without copying them first.
1966  *
1967  * @IEEE80211_HW_SINGLE_SCAN_ON_ALL_BANDS: The HW supports scanning on all bands
1968  *	in one command, mac80211 doesn't have to run separate scans per band.
1969  *
1970  * @IEEE80211_HW_TDLS_WIDER_BW: The device/driver supports wider bandwidth
1971  *	than then BSS bandwidth for a TDLS link on the base channel.
1972  *
1973  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_AMSDU_IN_AMPDU: The driver supports receiving A-MSDUs
1974  *	within A-MPDU.
1975  *
1976  * @IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_TX_STATUS: The device/driver provides TX status
1977  *	for sent beacons.
1978  *
1979  * @IEEE80211_HW_NEEDS_UNIQUE_STA_ADDR: Hardware (or driver) requires that each
1980  *	station has a unique address, i.e. each station entry can be identified
1981  *	by just its MAC address; this prevents, for example, the same station
1982  *	from connecting to two virtual AP interfaces at the same time.
1983  *
1984  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_REORDERING_BUFFER: Hardware (or driver) manages the
1985  *	reordering buffer internally, guaranteeing mac80211 receives frames in
1986  *	order and does not need to manage its own reorder buffer or BA session
1987  *	timeout.
1988  *
1989  * @IEEE80211_HW_USES_RSS: The device uses RSS and thus requires parallel RX,
1990  *	which implies using per-CPU station statistics.
1991  *
1992  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_AMSDU: Hardware (or driver) supports software aggregated
1993  *	A-MSDU frames. Requires software tx queueing and fast-xmit support.
1994  *	When not using minstrel/minstrel_ht rate control, the driver must
1995  *	limit the maximum A-MSDU size based on the current tx rate by setting
1996  *	max_rc_amsdu_len in struct ieee80211_sta.
1997  *
1998  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_FRAG_LIST: Hardware (or driver) supports sending frag_list

2313  *
2314  * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
2315  * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
2316  * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
2317  * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
2318  * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
2319  * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
2320  * VLANs are configured for an access point.
2321  *
2322  * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
2323  * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
2324  * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
2325  *
2326  * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
2327  * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
2328  * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
2329  * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
2330  *
2331  * Note that in the case that the @IEEE80211_HW_SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL flag is
2332  * set, mac80211 will not automatically fall back to software crypto if
2333  * enabling hardware crypto failed. The set_key() call may also return the
2334  * value 1 to permit this specific key/algorithm to be done in software.
2335  *
2336  * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
2337  *
2338  * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
2339  * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
2340  * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
2341  * based on the receive flags.
2342  *
2343  * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
2344  * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
2345  * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
2346  * keys.
2347  *
2348  * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
2349  * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
2350  * handler.
2351  * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.

2354  * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
2355  * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
2356  * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.
2357  *
2358  * The set_default_unicast_key() call updates the default WEP key index

2363 /**
2364  * DOC: Powersave support
2365  *
2366  * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
2367  *
2368  * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
2369  * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
2370  * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
2371  * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
2372  * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
2373  * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
2374  * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
2375  * it finds traffic directed to it.
2376  *
2377  * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
2378  * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
2379  * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
2380  * up the hardware before issuing commands to the hardware and putting it
2381  * back to sleep at appropriate times.
2382  *
2383  * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
2384  * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
2385  * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
2386  *
2387  * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
2388  * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
2389  * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
2390  * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
2391  * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
2392  * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
2393  * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
2394  *
2395  * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
2396  * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
2397  * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
2398  * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
2399  * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
2400  * periods.
2401  *
2402  * Dynamic powersave is simply supported by mac80211 enabling and disabling
2403  * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
2404  * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
2405  * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
2406  * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
2407  * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
2408  * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
2409  * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
2410  * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
2411  * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
2412  *
2413  * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
2414  * %IEEE80211_VIF_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
2415  * uapsd parameter in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
2416  * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
2417  * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
2418  * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.
2419  *
2420  * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with
2421  * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK.

2424 /**
2425  * DOC: Beacon filter support
2426  *
2427  * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
2428  * which will reduce system power consumption. It usually works so that
2429  * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
2430  * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
2431  * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
2432  * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
2433  * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
2434  *
2435  * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER
2436  * interface capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
2437  * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
2438  * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
2439  * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
2440  *
2441  * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
2442  * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
2443  * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
2444  * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
2445  *
2446  * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
2447  * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
2448  * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
2449  * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
2450  *  - a list of information element IDs
2451  *  - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
2452  *
2453  * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
2454  * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
2455  * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
2456  * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
2457  * vendor information elements.
2458  *
2459  * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
2460  * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
2461  *
2462  * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
2463  * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
2464  * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
2465  * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
2466  * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
2467  * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
2468  *
2469  *
2470  * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
2471  * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
2472  * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
2473  * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
2474  * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
2475  * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
2476  * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
2477  * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
2478  *
2479  * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
2480  * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
2481  * signal strength threshold checking.

2485  * DOC: Spatial multiplexing power save
2486  *
2487  * SMPS (Spatial multiplexing power save) is a mechanism to conserve
2488  * power in an 802.11n implementation. For details on the mechanism
2489  * and rationale, please refer to 802.11 (as amended by 802.11n-2009)
2490  * "11.2.3 SM power save".
2491  *
2492  * The mac80211 implementation is capable of sending action frames
2493  * to update the AP about the station's SMPS mode, and will instruct
2494  * the driver to enter the specific mode. It will also announce the
2495  * requested SMPS mode during the association handshake. Hardware
2496  * support for this feature is required, and can be indicated by
2497  * hardware flags.
2498  *
2499  * The default mode will be "automatic", which nl80211/cfg80211
2500  * defines to be dynamic SMPS in (regular) powersave, and SMPS
2501  * turned off otherwise.
2502  *
2503  * To support this feature, the driver must set the appropriate
2504  * hardware support flags, and handle the SMPS flag to the config()
2505  * operation. It will then with this mechanism be instructed to
2506  * enter the requested SMPS mode while associated to an HT AP.

2509 /**
2510  * DOC: Frame filtering
2511  *
2512  * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
2513  * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
2514  * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
2515  * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
2516  * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
2517  *
2518  * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
2519  * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
2520  * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
2521  *
2522  * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
2523  * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
2524  * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
2525  * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
2526  * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
2527  * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
2528  * @total_flags with the new flag states.
2529  *
2530  * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
2531  * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
2532  * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
2533  * or dropped.
2534  *
2535  * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
2536  * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
2537  * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
2538  * the flag, but not clear it.
2539  * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
2540  * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
2541  * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
2542  * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
2543  * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
2544  * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
2545  * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
2546  * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.

2549 /**
2550  * DOC: AP support for powersaving clients
2551  *
2552  * In order to implement AP and P2P GO modes, mac80211 has support for
2553  * client powersaving, both "legacy" PS (PS-Poll/null data) and uAPSD.
2554  * There currently is no support for sAPSD.
2555  *
2556  * There is one assumption that mac80211 makes, namely that a client
2557  * will not poll with PS-Poll and trigger with uAPSD at the same time.
2558  * Both are supported, and both can be used by the same client, but
2559  * they can't be used concurrently by the same client. This simplifies
2560  * the driver code.
2561  *
2562  * The first thing to keep in mind is that there is a flag for complete
2563  * driver implementation: %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS. If this flag is set,
2564  * mac80211 expects the driver to handle most of the state machine for
2565  * powersaving clients and will ignore the PM bit in incoming frames.
2566  * Drivers then use ieee80211_sta_ps_transition() to inform mac80211 of
2567  * stations' powersave transitions. In this mode, mac80211 also doesn't
2568  * handle PS-Poll/uAPSD.
2569  *
2570  * In the mode without %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS, mac80211 will check the
2571  * PM bit in incoming frames for client powersave transitions. When a
2572  * station goes to sleep, we will stop transmitting to it. There is,
2573  * however, a race condition: a station might go to sleep while there is
2574  * data buffered on hardware queues. If the device has support for this
2575  * it will reject frames, and the driver should give the frames back to
2576  * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED flag set which will
2577  * cause mac80211 to retry the frame when the station wakes up. The
2578  * driver is also notified of powersave transitions by calling its
2579  * @sta_notify callback.
2580  *
2581  * When the station is asleep, it has three choices: it can wake up,
2582  * it can PS-Poll, or it can possibly start a uAPSD service period.
2583  * Waking up is implemented by simply transmitting all buffered (and
2584  * filtered) frames to the station. This is the easiest case. When
2585  * the station sends a PS-Poll or a uAPSD trigger frame, mac80211
2586  * will inform the driver of this with the @allow_buffered_frames
2587  * callback; this callback is optional. mac80211 will then transmit
2588  * the frames as usual and set the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER
2589  * on each frame. The last frame in the service period (or the only
2590  * response to a PS-Poll) also has %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set to
2591  * indicate that it ends the service period; as this frame must have
2592  * TX status report it also sets %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS.
2593  * When TX status is reported for this frame, the service period is
2594  * marked has having ended and a new one can be started by the peer.
2595  *
2596  * Additionally, non-bufferable MMPDUs can also be transmitted by
2597  * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER set in them.
2598  *
2599  * Another race condition can happen on some devices like iwlwifi
2600  * when there are frames queued for the station and it wakes up
2601  * or polls; the frames that are already queued could end up being
2602  * transmitted first instead, causing reordering and/or wrong
2603  * processing of the EOSP. The cause is that allowing frames to be
2604  * transmitted to a certain station is out-of-band communication to
2605  * the device. To allow this problem to be solved, the driver can
2606  * call ieee80211_sta_block_awake() if frames are buffered when it
2607  * is notified that the station went to sleep. When all these frames
2608  * have been filtered (see above), it must call the function again
2609  * to indicate that the station is no longer blocked.
2610  *
2611  * If the driver buffers frames in the driver for aggregation in any
2612  * way, it must use the ieee80211_sta_set_buffered() call when it is
2613  * notified of the station going to sleep to inform mac80211 of any
2614  * TIDs that have frames buffered. Note that when a station wakes up
2615  * this information is reset (hence the requirement to call it when
2616  * informed of the station going to sleep). Then, when a service
2617  * period starts for any reason, @release_buffered_frames is called
2618  * with the number of frames to be released and which TIDs they are
2619  * to come from. In this case, the driver is responsible for setting
2620  * the EOSP (for uAPSD) and MORE_DATA bits in the released frames,
2621  * to help the @more_data parameter is passed to tell the driver if
2622  * there is more data on other TIDs -- the TIDs to release frames
2623  * from are ignored since mac80211 doesn't know how many frames the
2624  * buffers for those TIDs contain.
2625  *
2626  * If the driver also implement GO mode, where absence periods may
2627  * shorten service periods (or abort PS-Poll responses), it must
2628  * filter those response frames except in the case of frames that
2629  * are buffered in the driver -- those must remain buffered to avoid
2630  * reordering. Because it is possible that no frames are released
2631  * in this case, the driver must call ieee80211_sta_eosp()
2632  * to indicate to mac80211 that the service period ended anyway.
2633  *
2634  * Finally, if frames from multiple TIDs are released from mac80211
2635  * but the driver might reorder them, it must clear & set the flags
2636  * appropriately (only the last frame may have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP)
2637  * and also take care of the EOSP and MORE_DATA bits in the frame.
2638  * The driver may also use ieee80211_sta_eosp() in this case.
2639  *
2640  * Note that if the driver ever buffers frames other than QoS-data
2641  * frames, it must take care to never send a non-QoS-data frame as
2642  * the last frame in a service period, adding a QoS-nulldata frame
2643  * after a non-QoS-data frame if needed.

2645 
2646 /**
2647  * DOC: HW queue control
2648  *
2649  * Before HW queue control was introduced, mac80211 only had a single static
2650  * assignment of per-interface AC software queues to hardware queues. This
2651  * was problematic for a few reasons:
2652  * 1) off-channel transmissions might get stuck behind other frames
2653  * 2) multiple virtual interfaces couldn't be handled correctly
2654  * 3) after-DTIM frames could get stuck behind other frames
2655  *
2656  * To solve this, hardware typically uses multiple different queues for all
2657  * the different usages, and this needs to be propagated into mac80211 so it
2658  * won't have the same problem with the software queues.
2659  *
2660  * Therefore, mac80211 now offers the %IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL capability
2661  * flag that tells it that the driver implements its own queue control. To do
2662  * so, the driver will set up the various queues in each &struct ieee80211_vif
2663  * and the offchannel queue in &struct ieee80211_hw. In response, mac80211 will
2664  * use those queue IDs in the hw_queue field of &struct ieee80211_tx_info and
2665  * if necessary will queue the frame on the right software queue that mirrors
2666  * the hardware queue.
2667  * Additionally, the driver has to then use these HW queue IDs for the queue
2668  * management functions (ieee80211_stop_queue() et al.)
2669  *
2670  * The driver is free to set up the queue mappings as needed, multiple virtual
2671  * interfaces may map to the same hardware queues if needed. The setup has to
2672  * happen during add_interface or change_interface callbacks. For example, a
2673  * driver supporting station+station and station+AP modes might decide to have
2674  * 10 hardware queues to handle different scenarios:
2675  *
2676  * 4 AC HW queues for 1st vif: 0, 1, 2, 3
2677  * 4 AC HW queues for 2nd vif: 4, 5, 6, 7
2678  * after-DTIM queue for AP:   8
2679  * off-channel queue:         9
2680  *
2681  * It would then set up the hardware like this:
2682  *   hw.offchannel_tx_hw_queue = 9
2683  *
2684  * and the first virtual interface that is added as follows:
2685  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VO] = 0
2686  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VI] = 1
2687  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BE] = 2
2688  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BK] = 3
2689  *   vif.cab_queue = 8 // if AP mode, otherwise %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2690  * and the second virtual interface with 4-7.
2691  *
2692  * If queue 6 gets full, for example, mac80211 would only stop the second
2693  * virtual interface's BE queue since virtual interface queues are per AC.
2694  *
2695  * Note that the vif.cab_queue value should be set to %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2696  * whenever the queue is not used (i.e. the interface is not in AP mode) if the
2697  * queue could potentially be shared since mac80211 will look at cab_queue when
2698  * a queue is stopped/woken even if the interface is not in AP mode.

2875 /**
2876  * struct ieee80211_ops - callbacks from mac80211 to the driver
2877  *
2878  * This structure contains various callbacks that the driver may
2879  * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
2880  * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
2881  *
2882  * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
2883  *	skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
2884  *	The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
2885  *	configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
2886  *	preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately.
2887  *	Must be atomic.
2888  *
2889  * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
2890  *	is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
2891  *	frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
2892  *	Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
2893  *	or zero.
2894  *	When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
2895  *	to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
2896  *	is added.
2897  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
2898  *
2899  * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
2900  *	is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
2901  *	it must turn off frame reception.)
2902  *	May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
2903  *	an interface. If you added any work onto the mac80211 workqueue
2904  *	you should ensure to cancel it on this callback.
2905  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
2906  *
2907  * @suspend: Suspend the device; mac80211 itself will quiesce before and
2908  *	stop transmitting and doing any other configuration, and then
2909  *	ask the device to suspend. This is only invoked when WoWLAN is
2910  *	configured, otherwise the device is deconfigured completely and
2911  *	reconfigured at resume time.
2912  *	The driver may also impose special conditions under which it
2913  *	wants to use the "normal" suspend (deconfigure), say if it only
2914  *	supports WoWLAN when the device is associated. In this case, it
2915  *	must return 1 from this function.
2916  *
2917  * @resume: If WoWLAN was configured, this indicates that mac80211 is
2918  *	now resuming its operation, after this the device must be fully
2919  *	functional again. If this returns an error, the only way out is
2920  *	to also unregister the device. If it returns 1, then mac80211
2921  *	will also go through the regular complete restart on resume.
2922  *
2923  * @set_wakeup: Enable or disable wakeup when WoWLAN configuration is
2924  *	modified. The reason is that device_set_wakeup_enable() is
2925  *	supposed to be called when the configuration changes, not only
2926  *	in suspend().
2927  *
2928  * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
2929  *	enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
2930  *	and @stop must be implemented.
2931  *	The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
2932  *	the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
2933  *	interface is given in the conf parameter.
2934  *	The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
2935  *	negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
2936  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
2937  *
2938  * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback
2939  *	is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be
2940  *	switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep.
2941  *	Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be
2942  *	found by the interface iteration callbacks.
2943  *
2944  * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
2945  *	The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
2946  *	and no monitor interfaces are present.
2947  *	When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
2948  *	must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
2949  *	the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
2950  *	MAC address of the device going away.
2951  *	Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.
2952  *
2953  * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
2954  *	function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
2955  *	This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
2956  *	if it does. The callback can sleep.
2957  *
2958  * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
2959  *	parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
2960  *	level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
2961  *	This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
2962  *	for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
2963  *	of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback
2964  *	can sleep.
2965  *
2966  * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration.
2967  *	This callback is optional, and its return value is passed
2968  *	to configure_filter(). This callback must be atomic.
2969  *
2970  * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
2971  *	See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
2972  *	This callback must be implemented and can sleep.
2973  *
2974  * @config_iface_filter: Configure the interface's RX filter.
2975  *	This callback is optional and is used to configure which frames
2976  *	should be passed to mac80211. The filter_flags is the combination
2977  *	of FIF_* flags. The changed_flags is a bit mask that indicates
2978  *	which flags are changed.
2979  *	This callback can sleep.
2980  *
2981  * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
2982  * 	must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
2983  *
2984  * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2985  *	This callback is only called between add_interface and
2986  *	remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
2987  *	is enabled.
2988  *	Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
2989  *	The callback can sleep.
2990  *
2991  * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2992  * 	This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
2993  * 	which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
2994  *	The callback must be atomic.
2995  *
2996  * @set_rekey_data: If the device supports GTK rekeying, for example while the
2997  *	host is suspended, it can assign this callback to retrieve the data
2998  *	necessary to do GTK rekeying, this is the KEK, KCK and replay counter.
2999  *	After rekeying was done it should (for example during resume) notify
3000  *	userspace of the new replay counter using ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify().
3001  *
3002  * @set_default_unicast_key: Set the default (unicast) key index, useful for
3003  *	WEP when the device sends data packets autonomously, e.g. for ARP
3004  *	offloading. The index can be 0-3, or -1 for unsetting it.
3005  *
3006  * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
3007  *	the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
3008  *	configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
3009  *	registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
3010  *	that power save is disabled.
3011  *	The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
3012  *	entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
3013  *	at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
3014  *	(extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
3015  *	When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
3016  *	note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
3017  *	any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
3018  *	The callback can sleep.
3019  *
3020  * @cancel_hw_scan: Ask the low-level tp cancel the active hw scan.
3021  *	The driver should ask the hardware to cancel the scan (if possible),
3022  *	but the scan will be completed only after the driver will call
3023  *	ieee80211_scan_completed().
3024  *	This callback is needed for wowlan, to prevent enqueueing a new
3025  *	scan_work after the low-level driver was already suspended.
3026  *	The callback can sleep.
3027  *
3028  * @sched_scan_start: Ask the hardware to start scanning repeatedly at
3029  *	specific intervals.  The driver must call the
3030  *	ieee80211_sched_scan_results() function whenever it finds results.
3031  *	This process will continue until sched_scan_stop is called.
3032  *
3033  * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the hardware to stop an ongoing scheduled scan.
3034  *	In this case, ieee80211_sched_scan_stopped() must not be called.
3035  *
3036  * @sw_scan_start: Notifier function that is called just before a software scan
3037  *	is started. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
3038  *	The mac_addr parameter allows supporting NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_RANDOM_ADDR,
3039  *	the driver may set the NL80211_FEATURE_SCAN_RANDOM_MAC_ADDR flag if it
3040  *	can use this parameter. The callback can sleep.
3041  *
3042  * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a
3043  *	software scan finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need
3044  *	this notification.
3045  *	The callback can sleep.
3046  *
3047  * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
3048  * 	Returns zero if statistics are available.
3049  *	The callback can sleep.
3050  *
3051  * @get_key_seq: If your device implements encryption in hardware and does
3052  *	IV/PN assignment then this callback should be provided to read the
3053  *	IV/PN for the given key from hardware.
3054  *	The callback must be atomic.
3055  *
3056  * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this
3057  *	if the device does fragmentation by itself; if this callback is
3058  *	implemented then the stack will not do fragmentation.
3059  *	The callback can sleep.
3060  *
3061  * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
3062  *	The callback can sleep.
3063  *
3064  * @sta_add: Notifies low level driver about addition of an associated station,
3065  *	AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
3066  *
3067  * @sta_remove: Notifies low level driver about removal of an associated
3068  *	station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. Note that after the callback
3069  *	returns it isn't safe to use the pointer, not even RCU protected;
3070  *	no RCU grace period is guaranteed between returning here and freeing
3071  *	the station. See @sta_pre_rcu_remove if needed.
3072  *	This callback can sleep.
3073  *
3074  * @sta_add_debugfs: Drivers can use this callback to add debugfs files
3075  *	when a station is added to mac80211's station list. This callback
3076  *	and @sta_remove_debugfs should be within a CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS
3077  *	conditional. This callback can sleep.
3078  *
3079  * @sta_remove_debugfs: Remove the debugfs files which were added using
3080  *	@sta_add_debugfs. This callback can sleep.
3081  *
3082  * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about power state transition of an
3083  *	associated station, AP,  IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. For a VIF operating
3084  *	in AP mode, this callback will not be called when the flag
3085  *	%IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS is set. Must be atomic.
3086  *
3087  * @sta_state: Notifies low level driver about state transition of a
3088  *	station (which can be the AP, a client, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc.)
3089  *	This callback is mutually exclusive with @sta_add/@sta_remove.
3090  *	It must not fail for down transitions but may fail for transitions
3091  *	up the list of states. Also note that after the callback returns it
3092  *	isn't safe to use the pointer, not even RCU protected - no RCU grace
3093  *	period is guaranteed between returning here and freeing the station.
3094  *	See @sta_pre_rcu_remove if needed.
3095  *	The callback can sleep.
3096  *
3097  * @sta_pre_rcu_remove: Notify driver about station removal before RCU
3098  *	synchronisation. This is useful if a driver needs to have station
3099  *	pointers protected using RCU, it can then use this call to clear
3100  *	the pointers instead of waiting for an RCU grace period to elapse
3101  *	in @sta_state.
3102  *	The callback can sleep.
3103  *
3104  * @sta_rc_update: Notifies the driver of changes to the bitrates that can be
3105  *	used to transmit to the station. The changes are advertised with bits
3106  *	from &enum ieee80211_rate_control_changed and the values are reflected
3107  *	in the station data. This callback should only be used when the driver
3108  *	uses hardware rate control (%IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL) since
3109  *	otherwise the rate control algorithm is notified directly.
3110  *	Must be atomic.
3111  * @sta_rate_tbl_update: Notifies the driver that the rate table changed. This
3112  *	is only used if the configured rate control algorithm actually uses
3113  *	the new rate table API, and is therefore optional. Must be atomic.
3114  *
3115  * @sta_statistics: Get statistics for this station. For example with beacon
3116  *	filtering, the statistics kept by mac80211 might not be accurate, so
3117  *	let the driver pre-fill the statistics. The driver can fill most of
3118  *	the values (indicating which by setting the filled bitmap), but not
3119  *	all of them make sense - see the source for which ones are possible.
3120  *	Statistics that the driver doesn't fill will be filled by mac80211.
3121  *	The callback can sleep.
3122  *
3123  * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
3124  *	bursting) for a hardware TX queue.
3125  *	Returns a negative error code on failure.
3126  *	The callback can sleep.
3127  *
3128  * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
3129  *	this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a
3130  *	required function.
3131  *	The callback can sleep.
3132  *
3133  * @set_tsf: Set the TSF timer to the specified value in the firmware/hardware.
3134  *	Currently, this is only used for IBSS mode debugging. Is not a
3135  *	required function.
3136  *	The callback can sleep.
3137  *
3138  * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
3139  *	with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
3140  *	function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
3141  *	TSF synchronization.
3142  *	The callback can sleep.
3143  *
3144  * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
3145  *	This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
3146  *	used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
3147  *	Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon.
3148  *	The callback can sleep.
3149  *
3150  * @ampdu_action: Perform a certain A-MPDU action
3151  * 	The RA/TID combination determines the destination and TID we want
3152  * 	the ampdu action to be performed for. The action is defined through
3153  *	ieee80211_ampdu_mlme_action.
3154  *	When the action is set to %IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL the driver
3155  *	may neither send aggregates containing more subframes than @buf_size
3156  *	nor send aggregates in a way that lost frames would exceed the
3157  *	buffer size. If just limiting the aggregate size, this would be
3158  *	possible with a buf_size of 8:
3159  *	 - TX: 1.....7
3160  *	 - RX:  2....7 (lost frame #1)
3161  *	 - TX:        8..1...
3162  *	which is invalid since #1 was now re-transmitted well past the
3163  *	buffer size of 8. Correct ways to retransmit #1 would be:
3164  *	 - TX:       1 or 18 or 81
3165  *	Even "189" would be wrong since 1 could be lost again.
3166  *
3167  *	Returns a negative error code on failure.
3168  *	The callback can sleep.
3169  *
3170  * @get_survey: Return per-channel survey information
3171  *
3172  * @rfkill_poll: Poll rfkill hardware state. If you need this, you also
3173  *	need to set wiphy->rfkill_poll to %true before registration,
3174  *	and need to call wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state() in the callback.
3175  *	The callback can sleep.
3176  *
3177  * @set_coverage_class: Set slot time for given coverage class as specified
3178  *	in IEEE 802.11-2007 section 17.3.8.6 and modify ACK timeout
3179  *	accordingly; coverage class equals to -1 to enable ACK timeout
3180  *	estimation algorithm (dynack). To disable dynack set valid value for
3181  *	coverage class. This callback is not required and may sleep.
3182  *
3183  * @testmode_cmd: Implement a cfg80211 test mode command. The passed @vif may
3184  *	be %NULL. The callback can sleep.
3185  * @testmode_dump: Implement a cfg80211 test mode dump. The callback can sleep.
3186  *
3187  * @flush: Flush all pending frames from the hardware queue, making sure
3188  *	that the hardware queues are empty. The @queues parameter is a bitmap
3189  *	of queues to flush, which is useful if different virtual interfaces
3190  *	use different hardware queues; it may also indicate all queues.
3191  *	If the parameter @drop is set to %true, pending frames may be dropped.
3192  *	Note that vif can be NULL.
3193  *	The callback can sleep.
3194  *
3195  * @channel_switch: Drivers that need (or want) to offload the channel
3196  *	switch operation for CSAs received from the AP may implement this
3197  *	callback. They must then call ieee80211_chswitch_done() to indicate
3198  *	completion of the channel switch.
3199  *
3200  * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device.
3201  *	Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may
3202  *	reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL
3203  *	(also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX).
3204  *
3205  * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant).
3206  *
3207  * @remain_on_channel: Starts an off-channel period on the given channel, must
3208  *	call back to ieee80211_ready_on_channel() when on that channel. Note
3209  *	that normal channel traffic is not stopped as this is intended for hw
3210  *	offload. Frames to transmit on the off-channel channel are transmitted
3211  *	normally except for the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN flag. When the
3212  *	duration (which will always be non-zero) expires, the driver must call
3213  *	ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired().
3214  *	Note that this callback may be called while the device is in IDLE and
3215  *	must be accepted in this case.
3216  *	This callback may sleep.
3217  * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Requests that an ongoing off-channel period is
3218  *	aborted before it expires. This callback may sleep.
3219  *
3220  * @set_ringparam: Set tx and rx ring sizes.
3221  *
3222  * @get_ringparam: Get tx and rx ring current and maximum sizes.
3223  *
3224  * @tx_frames_pending: Check if there is any pending frame in the hardware
3225  *	queues before entering power save.
3226  *
3227  * @set_bitrate_mask: Set a mask of rates to be used for rate control selection
3228  *	when transmitting a frame. Currently only legacy rates are handled.
3229  *	The callback can sleep.
3230  * @event_callback: Notify driver about any event in mac80211. See
3231  *	&enum ieee80211_event_type for the different types.
3232  *	The callback must be atomic.
3233  *
3234  * @release_buffered_frames: Release buffered frames according to the given
3235  *	parameters. In the case where the driver buffers some frames for
3236  *	sleeping stations mac80211 will use this callback to tell the driver
3237  *	to release some frames, either for PS-poll or uAPSD.
3238  *	Note that if the @more_data parameter is %false the driver must check
3239  *	if there are more frames on the given TIDs, and if there are more than
3240  *	the frames being released then it must still set the more-data bit in
3241  *	the frame. If the @more_data parameter is %true, then of course the
3242  *	more-data bit must always be set.
3243  *	The @tids parameter tells the driver which TIDs to release frames
3244  *	from, for PS-poll it will always have only a single bit set.
3245  *	In the case this is used for a PS-poll initiated release, the
3246  *	@num_frames parameter will always be 1 so code can be shared. In
3247  *	this case the driver must also set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
3248  *	on the TX status (and must report TX status) so that the PS-poll
3249  *	period is properly ended. This is used to avoid sending multiple
3250  *	responses for a retried PS-poll frame.
3251  *	In the case this is used for uAPSD, the @num_frames parameter may be
3252  *	bigger than one, but the driver may send fewer frames (it must send
3253  *	at least one, however). In this case it is also responsible for
3254  *	setting the EOSP flag in the QoS header of the frames. Also, when the
3255  *	service period ends, the driver must set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP
3256  *	on the last frame in the SP. Alternatively, it may call the function
3257  *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() to inform mac80211 of the end of the SP.
3258  *	This callback must be atomic.
3259  * @allow_buffered_frames: Prepare device to allow the given number of frames
3260  *	to go out to the given station. The frames will be sent by mac80211
3261  *	via the usual TX path after this call. The TX information for frames
3262  *	released will also have the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER flag set
3263  *	and the last one will also have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set. In case
3264  *	frames from multiple TIDs are released and the driver might reorder
3265  *	them between the TIDs, it must set the %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
3266  *	on the last frame and clear it on all others and also handle the EOSP
3267  *	bit in the QoS header correctly. Alternatively, it can also call the
3268  *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() function.
3269  *	The @tids parameter is a bitmap and tells the driver which TIDs the
3270  *	frames will be on; it will at most have two bits set.
3271  *	This callback must be atomic.
3272  *
3273  * @get_et_sset_count:  Ethtool API to get string-set count.
3274  *
3275  * @get_et_stats:  Ethtool API to get a set of u64 stats.
3276  *
3277  * @get_et_strings:  Ethtool API to get a set of strings to describe stats
3278  *	and perhaps other supported types of ethtool data-sets.
3279  *
3280  * @mgd_prepare_tx: Prepare for transmitting a management frame for association
3281  *	before associated. In multi-channel scenarios, a virtual interface is
3282  *	bound to a channel before it is associated, but as it isn't associated
3283  *	yet it need not necessarily be given airtime, in particular since any
3284  *	transmission to a P2P GO needs to be synchronized against the GO's
3285  *	powersave state. mac80211 will call this function before transmitting a
3286  *	management frame prior to having successfully associated to allow the
3287  *	driver to give it channel time for the transmission, to get a response
3288  *	and to be able to synchronize with the GO.
3289  *	The callback will be called before each transmission and upon return
3290  *	mac80211 will transmit the frame right away.
3291  *	The callback is optional and can (should!) sleep.
3292  *
3293  * @mgd_protect_tdls_discover: Protect a TDLS discovery session. After sending
3294  *	a TDLS discovery-request, we expect a reply to arrive on the AP's
3295  *	channel. We must stay on the channel (no PSM, scan, etc.), since a TDLS
3296  *	setup-response is a direct packet not buffered by the AP.
3297  *	mac80211 will call this function just before the transmission of a TDLS
3298  *	discovery-request. The recommended period of protection is at least
3299  *	2 * (DTIM period).
3300  *	The callback is optional and can sleep.
3301  *
3302  * @add_chanctx: Notifies device driver about new channel context creation.
3303  *	This callback may sleep.
3304  * @remove_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context destruction.
3305  *	This callback may sleep.
3306  * @change_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context changes that
3307  *	may happen when combining different virtual interfaces on the same
3308  *	channel context with different settings
3309  *	This callback may sleep.
3310  * @assign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being bound
3311  *	to vif. Possible use is for hw queue remapping.
3312  *	This callback may sleep.
3313  * @unassign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being
3314  *	unbound from vif.
3315  *	This callback may sleep.
3316  * @switch_vif_chanctx: switch a number of vifs from one chanctx to
3317  *	another, as specified in the list of
3318  *	@ieee80211_vif_chanctx_switch passed to the driver, according
3319  *	to the mode defined in &ieee80211_chanctx_switch_mode.
3320  *	This callback may sleep.
3321  *
3322  * @start_ap: Start operation on the AP interface, this is called after all the
3323  *	information in bss_conf is set and beacon can be retrieved. A channel
3324  *	context is bound before this is called. Note that if the driver uses
3325  *	software scan or ROC, this (and @stop_ap) isn't called when the AP is
3326  *	just "paused" for scanning/ROC, which is indicated by the beacon being
3327  *	disabled/enabled via @bss_info_changed.
3328  * @stop_ap: Stop operation on the AP interface.
3329  *
3330  * @reconfig_complete: Called after a call to ieee80211_restart_hw() and
3331  *	during resume, when the reconfiguration has completed.
3332  *	This can help the driver implement the reconfiguration step (and
3333  *	indicate mac80211 is ready to receive frames).
3334  *	This callback may sleep.
3335  *
3336  * @ipv6_addr_change: IPv6 address assignment on the given interface changed.
3337  *	Currently, this is only called for managed or P2P client interfaces.
3338  *	This callback is optional; it must not sleep.
3339  *
3340  * @channel_switch_beacon: Starts a channel switch to a new channel.
3341  *	Beacons are modified to include CSA or ECSA IEs before calling this
3342  *	function. The corresponding count fields in these IEs must be
3343  *	decremented, and when they reach 1 the driver must call
3344  *	ieee80211_csa_finish(). Drivers which use ieee80211_beacon_get()
3345  *	get the csa counter decremented by mac80211, but must check if it is
3346  *	1 using ieee80211_csa_is_complete() after the beacon has been
3347  *	transmitted and then call ieee80211_csa_finish().
3348  *	If the CSA count starts as zero or 1, this function will not be called,
3349  *	since there won't be any time to beacon before the switch anyway.
3350  * @pre_channel_switch: This is an optional callback that is called
3351  *	before a channel switch procedure is started (ie. when a STA
3352  *	gets a CSA or an userspace initiated channel-switch), allowing
3353  *	the driver to prepare for the channel switch.
3354  * @post_channel_switch: This is an optional callback that is called
3355  *	after a channel switch procedure is completed, allowing the
3356  *	driver to go back to a normal configuration.
3357  *
3358  * @join_ibss: Join an IBSS (on an IBSS interface); this is called after all
3359  *	information in bss_conf is set up and the beacon can be retrieved. A
3360  *	channel context is bound before this is called.
3361  * @leave_ibss: Leave the IBSS again.
3362  *
3363  * @get_expected_throughput: extract the expected throughput towards the
3364  *	specified station. The returned value is expressed in Kbps. It returns 0
3365  *	if the RC algorithm does not have proper data to provide.
3366  *
3367  * @get_txpower: get current maximum tx power (in dBm) based on configuration
3368  *	and hardware limits.
3369  *
3370  * @tdls_channel_switch: Start channel-switching with a TDLS peer. The driver
3371  *	is responsible for continually initiating channel-switching operations
3372  *	and returning to the base channel for communication with the AP. The
3373  *	driver receives a channel-switch request template and the location of
3374  *	the switch-timing IE within the template as part of the invocation.
3375  *	The template is valid only within the call, and the driver can
3376  *	optionally copy the skb for further re-use.
3377  * @tdls_cancel_channel_switch: Stop channel-switching with a TDLS peer. Both
3378  *	peers must be on the base channel when the call completes.
3379  * @tdls_recv_channel_switch: a TDLS channel-switch related frame (request or
3380  *	response) has been received from a remote peer. The driver gets
3381  *	parameters parsed from the incoming frame and may use them to continue
3382  *	an ongoing channel-switch operation. In addition, a channel-switch
3383  *	response template is provided, together with the location of the
3384  *	switch-timing IE within the template. The skb can only be used within
3385  *	the function call.
3386  *
3387  * @wake_tx_queue: Called when new packets have been added to the queue.
3388  * @sync_rx_queues: Process all pending frames in RSS queues. This is a
3389  *	synchronization which is needed in case driver has in its RSS queues
3390  *	pending frames that were received prior to the control path action
3391  *	currently taken (e.g. disassociation) but are not processed yet.
