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!

48  * DOC: Warning

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.

76  * DOC: mac80211 workqueue

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.

428  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES: More frames will be passed to the
429  *	transmit function after the current frame, this can be used
430  *	by drivers to kick the DMA queue only if unset or when the
431  *	queue gets full.
432  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRANSMISSION: This frame is being retransmitted
433  *	after TX status because the destination was asleep, it must not
434  *	be modified again (no seqno assignment, crypto, etc.)
435  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_MLME_CONN_TX: This frame was transmitted by the MLME
436  *	code for connection establishment, this indicates that its status
437  *	should kick the MLME state machine.
438  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NL80211_FRAME_TX: Frame was requested through nl80211
439  *	MLME command (internal to mac80211 to figure out whether to send TX
440  *	status to user space)
441  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_LDPC: tells the driver to use LDPC for this frame
442  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_STBC: Enables Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) for this
443  *	frame and selects the maximum number of streams that it can use.
444  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN: Marks this packet to be transmitted on
445  *	the off-channel channel when a remain-on-channel offload is done
446  *	in hardware -- normal packets still flow and are expected to be
447  *	handled properly by the device.
448  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_TKIP_MIC_FAILURE: Marks this packet to be used for TKIP
449  *	testing. It will be sent out with incorrect Michael MIC key to allow
450  *	TKIP countermeasures to be tested.
451  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_CCK_RATE: This frame will be sent at non CCK rate.
452  *	This flag is actually used for management frame especially for P2P
453  *	frames not being sent at CCK rate in 2GHz band.
454  * @IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP: This packet marks the end of service period,
455  *	when its status is reported the service period ends. For frames in
456  *	an SP that mac80211 transmits, it is already set; for driver frames
457  *	the driver may set this flag. It is also used to do the same for
458  *	PS-Poll responses.
459  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_USE_MINRATE: This frame will be sent at lowest rate.
460  *	This flag is used to send nullfunc frame at minimum rate when
461  *	the nullfunc is used for connection monitoring purpose.
462  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_DONTFRAG: Don't fragment this packet even if it
463  *	would be fragmented by size (this is optional, only used for
464  *	monitor injection).
465  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_PS_RESPONSE: This frame is a response to a poll
466  *	frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD).
467  *
468  * Note: If you have to add new flags to the enumeration, then don't
469  *	 forget to update %IEEE80211_TX_TEMPORARY_FLAGS when necessary.

1342  * done in a way that the simplest hardware doesn't need setting
1343  * any particular flags. There are some exceptions to this rule,
1344  * however, so you are advised to review these flags carefully.
1345  *
1346  * @IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL:
1347  *	The hardware or firmware includes rate control, and cannot be
1348  *	controlled by the stack. As such, no rate control algorithm
1349  *	should be instantiated, and the TX rate reported to userspace
1350  *	will be taken from the TX status instead of the rate control
1351  *	algorithm.
1352  *	Note that this requires that the driver implement a number of
1353  *	callbacks so it has the correct information, it needs to have
1354  *	the @set_rts_threshold callback and must look at the BSS config
1355  *	@use_cts_prot for G/N protection, @use_short_slot for slot
1356  *	timing in 2.4 GHz and @use_short_preamble for preambles for
1357  *	CCK frames.
1358  *
1359  * @IEEE80211_HW_RX_INCLUDES_FCS:
1360  *	Indicates that received frames passed to the stack include
1361  *	the FCS at the end.
1362  *
1363  * @IEEE80211_HW_HOST_BROADCAST_PS_BUFFERING:
1364  *	Some wireless LAN chipsets buffer broadcast/multicast frames
1365  *	for power saving stations in the hardware/firmware and others
1366  *	rely on the host system for such buffering. This option is used
1367  *	to configure the IEEE 802.11 upper layer to buffer broadcast and
1368  *	multicast frames when there are power saving stations so that
1369  *	the driver can fetch them with ieee80211_get_buffered_bc().
1370  *
1371  * @IEEE80211_HW_2GHZ_SHORT_SLOT_INCAPABLE:
1372  *	Hardware is not capable of short slot operation on the 2.4 GHz band.

1376  *	the 2.4 GHz band.
1377  *
1378  * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC:
1379  *	Hardware can provide signal values but we don't know its units. We
1380  *	expect values between 0 and @max_signal.
1381  *	If possible please provide dB or dBm instead.
1382  *
1383  * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM:
1384  *	Hardware gives signal values in dBm, decibel difference from
1385  *	one milliwatt. This is the preferred method since it is standardized
1386  *	between different devices. @max_signal does not need to be set.
1387  *
1388  * @IEEE80211_HW_SPECTRUM_MGMT:
1389  * 	Hardware supports spectrum management defined in 802.11h
1390  * 	Measurement, Channel Switch, Quieting, TPC
1391  *
1392  * @IEEE80211_HW_AMPDU_AGGREGATION:

1394  *
1395  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS:
1396  *	Hardware has power save support (i.e. can go to sleep).
1397  *
1398  * @IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK:
1399  *	Hardware requires nullfunc frame handling in stack, implies
1400  *	stack support for dynamic PS.

1403  *	Hardware has support for dynamic PS.

1408  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_STATIC_SMPS:
1409  *	Hardware supports static spatial multiplexing powersave,

1411  *	that should be using more chains.
1412  *
1413  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_SMPS:
1414  *	Hardware supports dynamic spatial multiplexing powersave,
1415  *	ie. can turn off all but one chain and then wake the rest
1416  *	up as required after, for example, rts/cts handshake.
1417  *
1418  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD:
1419  *	Hardware supports Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery
1420  *	(U-APSD) in managed mode. The mode is configured with
1421  *	conf_tx() operation.
1422  *
1423  * @IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS:
1424  *	Hardware can provide ack status reports of Tx frames to
1425  *	the stack.
1426  *
1427  * @IEEE80211_HW_CONNECTION_MONITOR:
1428  *      The hardware performs its own connection monitoring, including
1429  *      periodic keep-alives to the AP and probing the AP on beacon loss.
1430  *      When this flag is set, signaling beacon-loss will cause an immediate
1431  *      change to disassociated state.
1432  *
1433  * @IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_BEFORE_ASSOC:
1434  *	This device needs to get data from beacon before association (i.e.
1435  *	dtim_period).
1436  *
1437  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PER_STA_GTK: The device's crypto engine supports
1438  *	per-station GTKs as used by IBSS RSN or during fast transition. If
1439  *	the device doesn't support per-station GTKs, but can be asked not
1440  *	to decrypt group addressed frames, then IBSS RSN support is still
1441  *	possible but software crypto will be used. Advertise the wiphy flag
1442  *	only in that case.
1443  *
1444  * @IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS: When operating in AP mode the device
1445  *	autonomously manages the PS status of connected stations. When
1446  *	this flag is set mac80211 will not trigger PS mode for connected
1447  *	stations based on the PM bit of incoming frames.
1448  *	Use ieee80211_start_ps()/ieee8021_end_ps() to manually configure
1449  *	the PS mode of connected stations.
1450  *
1451  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_AMPDU_SETUP_IN_HW: The device handles TX A-MPDU session
1452  *	setup strictly in HW. mac80211 should not attempt to do this in
1453  *	software.
1454  *
1455  * @IEEE80211_HW_WANT_MONITOR_VIF: The driver would like to be informed of
1456  *	a virtual monitor interface when monitor interfaces are the only
1457  *	active interfaces.
1458  *
1459  * @IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL: The driver wants to control per-interface
1460  *	queue mapping in order to use different queues (not just one per AC)
1461  *	for different virtual interfaces. See the doc section on HW queue
1462  *	control for more details.
1463  *
1464  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_RC_TABLE: The driver supports using a rate
1465  *	selection table provided by the rate control algorithm.
1466  *
1467  * @IEEE80211_HW_P2P_DEV_ADDR_FOR_INTF: Use the P2P Device address for any
1468  *	P2P Interface. This will be honoured even if more than one interface
1469  *	is supported.
1470  *
1471  * @IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY: Use sync timing from beacon frames
1472  *	only, to allow getting TBTT of a DTIM beacon.

1700  * DOC: Hardware crypto acceleration
1701  *
1702  * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware
1703  * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.
1704  *
1705  * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1706  * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
1707  * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1708  * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1709  * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
1710  * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1711  * VLANs are configured for an access point.
1712  *
1713  * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1714  * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1715  * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1716  *
1717  * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1718  * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1719  * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
1720  * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
1721  *
1722  * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
1723  *
1724  * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
1725  * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
1726  * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
1727  * based on the receive flags.
1728  *
1729  * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
1730  * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
1731  * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
1732  * keys.
1733  *
1734  * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
1735  * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
1736  * handler.
1737  * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
1738  * This happens every time the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
1739  * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
1740  * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
1741  * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
1742  * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.
1743  *
1744  * The set_default_unicast_key() call updates the default WEP key index
1745  * configured to the hardware for WEP encryption type. This is required
1746  * for devices that support offload of data packets (e.g. ARP responses).

1749 /**
1750  * DOC: Powersave support
1751  *
1752  * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
1753  *
1754  * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
1755  * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
1756  * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
1757  * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
1758  * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
1759  * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
1760  * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
1761  * it finds traffic directed to it.
1762  *
1763  * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
1764  * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
1765  * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
1766  * up the hardware before issuing commands to the hardware and putting it
1767  * back to sleep at appropriate times.
1768  *
1769  * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
1770  * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
1771  * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
1772  *
1773  * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1774  * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1775  * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1776  * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
1777  * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
1778  * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
1779  * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
1780  *
1781  * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
1782  * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
1783  * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
1784  * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
1785  * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
1786  * periods.
1787  *
1788  * Dynamic powersave is simply supported by mac80211 enabling and disabling
1789  * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1790  * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
1791  * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
1792  * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
1793  * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
1794  * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
1795  * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
1796  * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
1797  * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
1798  *
1799  * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
1800  * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
1801  * uapsd paramater in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
1802  * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
1803  * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
1804  * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.
1805  *
1806  * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with
1807  * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK.

1810 /**
1811  * DOC: Beacon filter support
1812  *
1813  * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1814  * which will reduce system power consumption. It usually works so that
1815  * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1816  * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
1817  * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
1818  * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1819  * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1820  *
1821  * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER
1822  * interface capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
1823  * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
1824  * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
1825  * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
1826  *
1827  * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
1828  * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
1829  * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
1830  * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
1831  *
1832  * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
1833  * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
1834  * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
1835  * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
1836  *  - a list of information element IDs
1837  *  - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
1838  *
1839  * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
1840  * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
1841  * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
1842  * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
1843  * vendor information elements.
1844  *
1845  * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
1846  * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
1847  *
1848  * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
1849  * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
1850  * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
1851  * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
1852  * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
1853  * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
1854  *
1855  *
1856  * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
1857  * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
1858  * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
1859  * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
1860  * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
1861  * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
1862  * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
1863  * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
1864  *
1865  * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
1866  * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
1867  * signal strength threshold checking.

1877  *
1878  * The mac80211 implementation is capable of sending action frames
1879  * to update the AP about the station's SMPS mode, and will instruct
1880  * the driver to enter the specific mode. It will also announce the

1895 /**
1896  * DOC: Frame filtering
1897  *
1898  * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
1899  * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
1900  * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
1901  * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1902  * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1903  *
1904  * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
1905  * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
1906  * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
1907  *
1908  * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
1909  * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
1910  * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
1911  * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
1912  * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
1913  * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
1914  * @total_flags with the new flag states.
1915  *
1916  * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
1917  * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
1918  * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
1919  * or dropped.
1920  *
1921  * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
1922  * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
1923  * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
1924  * the flag, but not clear it.
1925  * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
1926  * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
1927  * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
1928  * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1929  * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1930  * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1931  * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
1932  * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.

1934 
1935 /**
1936  * DOC: AP support for powersaving clients
1937  *
1938  * In order to implement AP and P2P GO modes, mac80211 has support for
1939  * client powersaving, both "legacy" PS (PS-Poll/null data) and uAPSD.
1940  * There currently is no support for sAPSD.
1941  *
1942  * There is one assumption that mac80211 makes, namely that a client
1943  * will not poll with PS-Poll and trigger with uAPSD at the same time.
1944  * Both are supported, and both can be used by the same client, but
1945  * they can't be used concurrently by the same client. This simplifies
1946  * the driver code.
1947  *
1948  * The first thing to keep in mind is that there is a flag for complete
1949  * driver implementation: %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS. If this flag is set,
1950  * mac80211 expects the driver to handle most of the state machine for
1951  * powersaving clients and will ignore the PM bit in incoming frames.
1952  * Drivers then use ieee80211_sta_ps_transition() to inform mac80211 of
1953  * stations' powersave transitions. In this mode, mac80211 also doesn't
1954  * handle PS-Poll/uAPSD.
1955  *
1956  * In the mode without %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS, mac80211 will check the
1957  * PM bit in incoming frames for client powersave transitions. When a
1958  * station goes to sleep, we will stop transmitting to it. There is,
1959  * however, a race condition: a station might go to sleep while there is
1960  * data buffered on hardware queues. If the device has support for this
1961  * it will reject frames, and the driver should give the frames back to
1962  * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED flag set which will
1963  * cause mac80211 to retry the frame when the station wakes up. The
1964  * driver is also notified of powersave transitions by calling its
1965  * @sta_notify callback.
1966  *
1967  * When the station is asleep, it has three choices: it can wake up,
1968  * it can PS-Poll, or it can possibly start a uAPSD service period.
1969  * Waking up is implemented by simply transmitting all buffered (and
1970  * filtered) frames to the station. This is the easiest case. When
1971  * the station sends a PS-Poll or a uAPSD trigger frame, mac80211
1972  * will inform the driver of this with the @allow_buffered_frames
1973  * callback; this callback is optional. mac80211 will then transmit
1974  * the frames as usual and set the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER
1975  * on each frame. The last frame in the service period (or the only
1976  * response to a PS-Poll) also has %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set to
1977  * indicate that it ends the service period; as this frame must have
1978  * TX status report it also sets %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS.
1979  * When TX status is reported for this frame, the service period is
1980  * marked has having ended and a new one can be started by the peer.
1981  *
1982  * Additionally, non-bufferable MMPDUs can also be transmitted by
1983  * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER set in them.
1984  *
1985  * Another race condition can happen on some devices like iwlwifi
1986  * when there are frames queued for the station and it wakes up
1987  * or polls; the frames that are already queued could end up being
1988  * transmitted first instead, causing reordering and/or wrong
1989  * processing of the EOSP. The cause is that allowing frames to be
1990  * transmitted to a certain station is out-of-band communication to
1991  * the device. To allow this problem to be solved, the driver can
1992  * call ieee80211_sta_block_awake() if frames are buffered when it
1993  * is notified that the station went to sleep. When all these frames
1994  * have been filtered (see above), it must call the function again
1995  * to indicate that the station is no longer blocked.
1996  *
1997  * If the driver buffers frames in the driver for aggregation in any
1998  * way, it must use the ieee80211_sta_set_buffered() call when it is
1999  * notified of the station going to sleep to inform mac80211 of any
2000  * TIDs that have frames buffered. Note that when a station wakes up
2001  * this information is reset (hence the requirement to call it when
2002  * informed of the station going to sleep). Then, when a service
2003  * period starts for any reason, @release_buffered_frames is called
2004  * with the number of frames to be released and which TIDs they are
2005  * to come from. In this case, the driver is responsible for setting
2006  * the EOSP (for uAPSD) and MORE_DATA bits in the released frames,
2007  * to help the @more_data paramter is passed to tell the driver if
2008  * there is more data on other TIDs -- the TIDs to release frames
2009  * from are ignored since mac80211 doesn't know how many frames the
2010  * buffers for those TIDs contain.
2011  *
2012  * If the driver also implement GO mode, where absence periods may
2013  * shorten service periods (or abort PS-Poll responses), it must
2014  * filter those response frames except in the case of frames that
2015  * are buffered in the driver -- those must remain buffered to avoid
2016  * reordering. Because it is possible that no frames are released
2017  * in this case, the driver must call ieee80211_sta_eosp()
2018  * to indicate to mac80211 that the service period ended anyway.
2019  *
2020  * Finally, if frames from multiple TIDs are released from mac80211
2021  * but the driver might reorder them, it must clear & set the flags

2028  * DOC: HW queue control
2029  *
2030  * Before HW queue control was introduced, mac80211 only had a single static
2031  * assignment of per-interface AC software queues to hardware queues. This
2032  * was problematic for a few reasons:
2033  * 1) off-channel transmissions might get stuck behind other frames
2034  * 2) multiple virtual interfaces couldn't be handled correctly
2035  * 3) after-DTIM frames could get stuck behind other frames
2036  *
2037  * To solve this, hardware typically uses multiple different queues for all
2038  * the different usages, and this needs to be propagated into mac80211 so it
2039  * won't have the same problem with the software queues.
2040  *
2041  * Therefore, mac80211 now offers the %IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL capability
2042  * flag that tells it that the driver implements its own queue control. To do
2043  * so, the driver will set up the various queues in each &struct ieee80211_vif
2044  * and the offchannel queue in &struct ieee80211_hw. In response, mac80211 will
2045  * use those queue IDs in the hw_queue field of &struct ieee80211_tx_info and
2046  * if necessary will queue the frame on the right software queue that mirrors
2047  * the hardware queue.
2048  * Additionally, the driver has to then use these HW queue IDs for the queue
2049  * management functions (ieee80211_stop_queue() et al.)
2050  *
2051  * The driver is free to set up the queue mappings as needed, multiple virtual
2052  * interfaces may map to the same hardware queues if needed. The setup has to
2053  * happen during add_interface or change_interface callbacks. For example, a
2054  * driver supporting station+station and station+AP modes might decide to have
2055  * 10 hardware queues to handle different scenarios:
2056  *
2057  * 4 AC HW queues for 1st vif: 0, 1, 2, 3
2058  * 4 AC HW queues for 2nd vif: 4, 5, 6, 7
2059  * after-DTIM queue for AP:   8
2060  * off-channel queue:         9
2061  *
2062  * It would then set up the hardware like this:
2063  *   hw.offchannel_tx_hw_queue = 9
2064  *
2065  * and the first virtual interface that is added as follows:
2066  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VO] = 0
2067  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VI] = 1
2068  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BE] = 2
2069  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BK] = 3
2070  *   vif.cab_queue = 8 // if AP mode, otherwise %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2071  * and the second virtual interface with 4-7.
2072  *
2073  * If queue 6 gets full, for example, mac80211 would only stop the second
2074  * virtual interface's BE queue since virtual interface queues are per AC.
2075  *
2076  * Note that the vif.cab_queue value should be set to %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2077  * whenever the queue is not used (i.e. the interface is not in AP mode) if the
2078  * queue could potentially be shared since mac80211 will look at cab_queue when
2079  * a queue is stopped/woken even if the interface is not in AP mode.

2222  * This structure contains various callbacks that the driver may
2223  * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
2224  * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
2225  *
2226  * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
2227  *	skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
2228  *	The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
2229  *	configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
2230  *	preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately.
2231  *	Must be atomic.
2232  *
2233  * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
2234  *	is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
2235  *	frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
2236  *	Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
2237  *	or zero.
2238  *	When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
2239  *	to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
2240  *	is added.
2241  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
2242  *
2243  * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
2244  *	is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
2245  *	it must turn off frame reception.)
2246  *	May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
2247  *	an interface. If you added any work onto the mac80211 workqueue
2248  *	you should ensure to cancel it on this callback.
2249  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
2250  *
2251  * @suspend: Suspend the device; mac80211 itself will quiesce before and
2252  *	stop transmitting and doing any other configuration, and then
2253  *	ask the device to suspend. This is only invoked when WoWLAN is
2254  *	configured, otherwise the device is deconfigured completely and
2255  *	reconfigured at resume time.
2256  *	The driver may also impose special conditions under which it
2257  *	wants to use the "normal" suspend (deconfigure), say if it only
2258  *	supports WoWLAN when the device is associated. In this case, it
2259  *	must return 1 from this function.
2260  *
2261  * @resume: If WoWLAN was configured, this indicates that mac80211 is
2262  *	now resuming its operation, after this the device must be fully
2263  *	functional again. If this returns an error, the only way out is
2264  *	to also unregister the device. If it returns 1, then mac80211
2265  *	will also go through the regular complete restart on resume.
2266  *
2267  * @set_wakeup: Enable or disable wakeup when WoWLAN configuration is
2268  *	modified. The reason is that device_set_wakeup_enable() is
2269  *	supposed to be called when the configuration changes, not only
2270  *	in suspend().
2271  *
2272  * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
2273  *	enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
2274  *	and @stop must be implemented.
2275  *	The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
2276  *	the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
2277  *	interface is given in the conf parameter.
2278  *	The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
2279  *	negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
2280  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
2281  *
2282  * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback
2283  *	is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be
2284  *	switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep.
2285  *	Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be
2286  *	found by the interface iteration callbacks.
2287  *
2288  * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
2289  *	The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
2290  *	and no monitor interfaces are present.
2291  *	When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
2292  *	must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
2293  *	the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
2294  *	MAC address of the device going away.
2295  *	Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.
2296  *
2297  * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
2298  *	function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
2299  *	This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
2300  *	if it does. The callback can sleep.
2301  *
2302  * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
2303  *	parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
2304  *	level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
2305  *	This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
2306  *	for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
2307  *	of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback
2308  *	can sleep.
2309  *
2310  * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration.
2311  *	This callback is optional, and its return value is passed
2312  *	to configure_filter(). This callback must be atomic.
2313  *
2314  * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
2315  *	See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
2316  *	This callback must be implemented and can sleep.
2317  *
2318  * @set_multicast_list: Configure the device's interface specific RX multicast
2319  *	filter. This callback is optional. This callback must be atomic.
2320  *
2321  * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
2322  * 	must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
2323  *
2324  * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2325  *	This callback is only called between add_interface and
2326  *	remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
2327  *	is enabled.
2328  *	Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
2329  *	The callback can sleep.
2330  *
2331  * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2332  * 	This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
2333  * 	which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
2334  *	The callback must be atomic.
2335  *
2336  * @set_rekey_data: If the device supports GTK rekeying, for example while the
2337  *	host is suspended, it can assign this callback to retrieve the data
2338  *	necessary to do GTK rekeying, this is the KEK, KCK and replay counter.
2339  *	After rekeying was done it should (for example during resume) notify
2340  *	userspace of the new replay counter using ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify().
2341  *
2342  * @set_default_unicast_key: Set the default (unicast) key index, useful for
2343  *	WEP when the device sends data packets autonomously, e.g. for ARP
2344  *	offloading. The index can be 0-3, or -1 for unsetting it.
2345  *
2346  * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
2347  *	the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
2348  *	configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
2349  *	registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
2350  *	that power save is disabled.
2351  *	The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
2352  *	entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
2353  *	at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
2354  *	(extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
2355  *	When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
2356  *	note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
2357  *	any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
2358  *	The callback can sleep.
2359  *
2360  * @cancel_hw_scan: Ask the low-level tp cancel the active hw scan.
2361  *	The driver should ask the hardware to cancel the scan (if possible),
2362  *	but the scan will be completed only after the driver will call
2363  *	ieee80211_scan_completed().
2364  *	This callback is needed for wowlan, to prevent enqueueing a new
2365  *	scan_work after the low-level driver was already suspended.
2366  *	The callback can sleep.
2367  *
2368  * @sched_scan_start: Ask the hardware to start scanning repeatedly at
2369  *	specific intervals.  The driver must call the
2370  *	ieee80211_sched_scan_results() function whenever it finds results.
2371  *	This process will continue until sched_scan_stop is called.
2372  *
2373  * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the hardware to stop an ongoing scheduled scan.
2374  *
2375  * @sw_scan_start: Notifier function that is called just before a software scan
2376  *	is started. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
2377  *	The callback can sleep.
2378  *
2379  * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a
2380  *	software scan finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need
2381  *	this notification.
2382  *	The callback can sleep.
2383  *
2384  * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
2385  * 	Returns zero if statistics are available.
2386  *	The callback can sleep.
2387  *
2388  * @get_tkip_seq: If your device implements TKIP encryption in hardware this
2389  *	callback should be provided to read the TKIP transmit IVs (both IV32
2390  *	and IV16) for the given key from hardware.
2391  *	The callback must be atomic.
2392  *
2393  * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this
2394  *	if the device does fragmentation by itself; if this callback is
2395  *	implemented then the stack will not do fragmentation.
2396  *	The callback can sleep.
2397  *
2398  * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
2399  *	The callback can sleep.
2400  *
2401  * @sta_add: Notifies low level driver about addition of an associated station,
2402  *	AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
2403  *
2404  * @sta_remove: Notifies low level driver about removal of an associated
2405  *	station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
2406  *
2407  * @sta_add_debugfs: Drivers can use this callback to add debugfs files
2408  *	when a station is added to mac80211's station list. This callback
2409  *	and @sta_remove_debugfs should be within a CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS
2410  *	conditional. This callback can sleep.
2411  *
2412  * @sta_remove_debugfs: Remove the debugfs files which were added using
2413  *	@sta_add_debugfs. This callback can sleep.
2414  *
2415  * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about power state transition of an
2416  *	associated station, AP,  IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. For a VIF operating
2417  *	in AP mode, this callback will not be called when the flag
2418  *	%IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS is set. Must be atomic.
2419  *
2420  * @sta_state: Notifies low level driver about state transition of a
2421  *	station (which can be the AP, a client, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc.)
2422  *	This callback is mutually exclusive with @sta_add/@sta_remove.
2423  *	It must not fail for down transitions but may fail for transitions
2424  *	up the list of states.
2425  *	The callback can sleep.
2426  *
2427  * @sta_rc_update: Notifies the driver of changes to the bitrates that can be
2428  *	used to transmit to the station. The changes are advertised with bits
2429  *	from &enum ieee80211_rate_control_changed and the values are reflected
2430  *	in the station data. This callback should only be used when the driver
2431  *	uses hardware rate control (%IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL) since
2432  *	otherwise the rate control algorithm is notified directly.
2433  *	Must be atomic.
2434  *
2435  * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
2436  *	bursting) for a hardware TX queue.
2437  *	Returns a negative error code on failure.
2438  *	The callback can sleep.
2439  *
2440  * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
2441  *	this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a
2442  *	required function.
2443  *	The callback can sleep.
2444  *
2445  * @set_tsf: Set the TSF timer to the specified value in the firmware/hardware.
2446  *      Currently, this is only used for IBSS mode debugging. Is not a
2447  *	required function.
2448  *	The callback can sleep.
2449  *
2450  * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
2451  *	with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
2452  *	function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
2453  *	TSF synchronization.
2454  *	The callback can sleep.
2455  *
2456  * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
2457  *	This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
2458  *	used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
2459  *	Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon.
2460  *	The callback can sleep.
2461  *
2462  * @ampdu_action: Perform a certain A-MPDU action
2463  * 	The RA/TID combination determines the destination and TID we want
2464  * 	the ampdu action to be performed for. The action is defined through
2465  * 	ieee80211_ampdu_mlme_action. Starting sequence number (@ssn)
2466  * 	is the first frame we expect to perform the action on. Notice
2467  * 	that TX/RX_STOP can pass NULL for this parameter.
2468  *	The @buf_size parameter is only valid when the action is set to
2469  *	%IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL and indicates the peer's reorder
2470  *	buffer size (number of subframes) for this session -- the driver
2471  *	may neither send aggregates containing more subframes than this
2472  *	nor send aggregates in a way that lost frames would exceed the
2473  *	buffer size. If just limiting the aggregate size, this would be
2474  *	possible with a buf_size of 8:
2475  *	 - TX: 1.....7
2476  *	 - RX:  2....7 (lost frame #1)
2477  *	 - TX:        8..1...
2478  *	which is invalid since #1 was now re-transmitted well past the
2479  *	buffer size of 8. Correct ways to retransmit #1 would be:
2480  *	 - TX:       1 or 18 or 81
2481  *	Even "189" would be wrong since 1 could be lost again.
2482  *
2483  *	Returns a negative error code on failure.
2484  *	The callback can sleep.
2485  *
2486  * @get_survey: Return per-channel survey information
2487  *
2488  * @rfkill_poll: Poll rfkill hardware state. If you need this, you also
2489  *	need to set wiphy->rfkill_poll to %true before registration,
2490  *	and need to call wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state() in the callback.
2491  *	The callback can sleep.
2492  *
2493  * @set_coverage_class: Set slot time for given coverage class as specified
2494  *	in IEEE 802.11-2007 section 17.3.8.6 and modify ACK timeout
2495  *	accordingly. This callback is not required and may sleep.
2496  *
2497  * @testmode_cmd: Implement a cfg80211 test mode command.
2498  *	The callback can sleep.
2499  * @testmode_dump: Implement a cfg80211 test mode dump. The callback can sleep.
2500  *
2501  * @flush: Flush all pending frames from the hardware queue, making sure
2502  *	that the hardware queues are empty. The @queues parameter is a bitmap
2503  *	of queues to flush, which is useful if different virtual interfaces
2504  *	use different hardware queues; it may also indicate all queues.
2505  *	If the parameter @drop is set to %true, pending frames may be dropped.
2506  *	The callback can sleep.
2507  *
2508  * @channel_switch: Drivers that need (or want) to offload the channel
2509  *	switch operation for CSAs received from the AP may implement this
2510  *	callback. They must then call ieee80211_chswitch_done() to indicate
2511  *	completion of the channel switch.
2512  *
2513  * @napi_poll: Poll Rx queue for incoming data frames.
2514  *
2515  * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device.
2516  *	Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may
2517  *	reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL
2518  *	(also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX).
2519  *
2520  * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant).
2521  *
2522  * @remain_on_channel: Starts an off-channel period on the given channel, must
2523  *	call back to ieee80211_ready_on_channel() when on that channel. Note
2524  *	that normal channel traffic is not stopped as this is intended for hw
2525  *	offload. Frames to transmit on the off-channel channel are transmitted
2526  *	normally except for the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN flag. When the
2527  *	duration (which will always be non-zero) expires, the driver must call
2528  *	ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired().
2529  *	Note that this callback may be called while the device is in IDLE and
2530  *	must be accepted in this case.
2531  *	This callback may sleep.
2532  * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Requests that an ongoing off-channel period is
2533  *	aborted before it expires. This callback may sleep.
2534  *
2535  * @set_ringparam: Set tx and rx ring sizes.
2536  *
2537  * @get_ringparam: Get tx and rx ring current and maximum sizes.
2538  *
2539  * @tx_frames_pending: Check if there is any pending frame in the hardware
2540  *	queues before entering power save.
2541  *
2542  * @set_bitrate_mask: Set a mask of rates to be used for rate control selection
2543  *	when transmitting a frame. Currently only legacy rates are handled.
2544  *	The callback can sleep.
2545  * @rssi_callback: Notify driver when the average RSSI goes above/below
2546  *	thresholds that were registered previously. The callback can sleep.
2547  *
2548  * @release_buffered_frames: Release buffered frames according to the given
2549  *	parameters. In the case where the driver buffers some frames for
2550  *	sleeping stations mac80211 will use this callback to tell the driver
2551  *	to release some frames, either for PS-poll or uAPSD.
2552  *	Note that if the @more_data paramter is %false the driver must check
2553  *	if there are more frames on the given TIDs, and if there are more than
2554  *	the frames being released then it must still set the more-data bit in
2555  *	the frame. If the @more_data parameter is %true, then of course the
2556  *	more-data bit must always be set.
2557  *	The @tids parameter tells the driver which TIDs to release frames
2558  *	from, for PS-poll it will always have only a single bit set.
2559  *	In the case this is used for a PS-poll initiated release, the
2560  *	@num_frames parameter will always be 1 so code can be shared. In
2561  *	this case the driver must also set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
2562  *	on the TX status (and must report TX status) so that the PS-poll
2563  *	period is properly ended. This is used to avoid sending multiple
2564  *	responses for a retried PS-poll frame.
2565  *	In the case this is used for uAPSD, the @num_frames parameter may be
2566  *	bigger than one, but the driver may send fewer frames (it must send
2567  *	at least one, however). In this case it is also responsible for
2568  *	setting the EOSP flag in the QoS header of the frames. Also, when the
2569  *	service period ends, the driver must set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP
2570  *	on the last frame in the SP. Alternatively, it may call the function
2571  *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() to inform mac80211 of the end of the SP.
2572  *	This callback must be atomic.
2573  * @allow_buffered_frames: Prepare device to allow the given number of frames
2574  *	to go out to the given station. The frames will be sent by mac80211
2575  *	via the usual TX path after this call. The TX information for frames
2576  *	released will also have the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER flag set
2577  *	and the last one will also have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set. In case
2578  *	frames from multiple TIDs are released and the driver might reorder
2579  *	them between the TIDs, it must set the %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
2580  *	on the last frame and clear it on all others and also handle the EOSP
2581  *	bit in the QoS header correctly. Alternatively, it can also call the
2582  *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() function.
2583  *	The @tids parameter is a bitmap and tells the driver which TIDs the
2584  *	frames will be on; it will at most have two bits set.
2585  *	This callback must be atomic.
2586  *
2587  * @get_et_sset_count:  Ethtool API to get string-set count.
2588  *
2589  * @get_et_stats:  Ethtool API to get a set of u64 stats.
2590  *
2591  * @get_et_strings:  Ethtool API to get a set of strings to describe stats
2592  *	and perhaps other supported types of ethtool data-sets.
2593  *
2594  * @get_rssi: Get current signal strength in dBm, the function is optional
2595  *	and can sleep.
2596  *
2597  * @mgd_prepare_tx: Prepare for transmitting a management frame for association
2598  *	before associated. In multi-channel scenarios, a virtual interface is
2599  *	bound to a channel before it is associated, but as it isn't associated
2600  *	yet it need not necessarily be given airtime, in particular since any
2601  *	transmission to a P2P GO needs to be synchronized against the GO's
2602  *	powersave state. mac80211 will call this function before transmitting a
2603  *	management frame prior to having successfully associated to allow the
2604  *	driver to give it channel time for the transmission, to get a response
2605  *	and to be able to synchronize with the GO.
2606  *	The callback will be called before each transmission and upon return
2607  *	mac80211 will transmit the frame right away.
2608  *	The callback is optional and can (should!) sleep.
2609  *
2610  * @add_chanctx: Notifies device driver about new channel context creation.
2611  * @remove_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context destruction.
2612  * @change_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context changes that
2613  *	may happen when combining different virtual interfaces on the same
2614  *	channel context with different settings
2615  * @assign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being bound
2616  *	to vif. Possible use is for hw queue remapping.
2617  * @unassign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being
2618  *	unbound from vif.
2619  * @start_ap: Start operation on the AP interface, this is called after all the
2620  *	information in bss_conf is set and beacon can be retrieved. A channel
2621  *	context is bound before this is called. Note that if the driver uses
2622  *	software scan or ROC, this (and @stop_ap) isn't called when the AP is
2623  *	just "paused" for scanning/ROC, which is indicated by the beacon being
2624  *	disabled/enabled via @bss_info_changed.
2625  * @stop_ap: Stop operation on the AP interface.
2626  *
2627  * @restart_complete: Called after a call to ieee80211_restart_hw(), when the
2628  *	reconfiguration has completed. This can help the driver implement the
2629  *	reconfiguration step. Also called when reconfiguring because the
2630  *	driver's resume function returned 1, as this is just like an "inline"
2631  *	hardware restart. This callback may sleep.
2632  *
2633  * @ipv6_addr_change: IPv6 address assignment on the given interface changed.
2634  *	Currently, this is only called for managed or P2P client interfaces.
2635  *	This callback is optional; it must not sleep.
