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

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

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

1027 * DOC: Hardware crypto acceleration
1028 *
1029 * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware
1030 * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.
1031 *
1032 * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1033 * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
1034 * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1035 * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1036 * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
1037 * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1038 * VLANs are configured for an access point.
1039 *
1040 * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1041 * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1042 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1043 *
1044 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1045 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1046 * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
1047 * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
1048 *
1049 * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
1050 *
1051 * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
1052 * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
1053 * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
1054 * based on the receive flags.
1055 *
1056 * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
1057 * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
1058 * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
1059 * keys.
1060 *
1061 * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
1062 * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
1063 * handler.
1064 * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
1065 * This happens everytime the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
1066 * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
1067 * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
1068 * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
1069 * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.

1073 * DOC: Powersave support
1074 *
1075 * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
1076 *
1077 * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by
1078 * itself, such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1079 * hardware flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired
1080 * powersave mode depending on the association status, and the driver
1081 * must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary, i.e. when
1082 * entering and leaving powersave mode. The driver is required to look at
1083 * the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when it finds
1084 * traffic directed to it. This mode supports dynamic PS by simply
1085 * enabling/disabling PS.
1086 *
1087 * Additionally, such hardware may set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS
1088 * flag to indicate that it can support dynamic PS mode itself (see below).
1089 *
1090 * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1091 * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1092 * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1093 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
1094 * required to pass up beacons. Additionally, in this case, mac80211 will
1095 * wake up the hardware when multicast traffic is announced in the beacon.
1096 *
1097 * FIXME: I don't think we can be fast enough in software when we want to
1098 * receive multicast traffic?
1099 *
1100 * Dynamic powersave mode is an extension to normal powersave mode in which
1101 * the hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending
1102 * a frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed
1103 * to the next wakeup. This can either be supported by hardware, in which case
1104 * the driver needs to look at the @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration
1105 * value, or by the stack if all nullfunc handling is in the stack.

1108 /**
1109 * DOC: Frame filtering
1110 *
1111 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
1112 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
1113 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
1114 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1115 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1116 *
1117 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
1118 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
1119 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
1120 *
1121 * The configure_filter() callback is invoked with the parameters
1122 * @mc_count and @mc_list for the combined multicast address list
1123 * of all virtual interfaces, @changed_flags telling which flags
1124 * were changed and @total_flags with the new flag states.
1125 *
1126 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
1127 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
1128 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
1129 * or dropped.
1130 *
1131 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
1132 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
1133 * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
1134 * the flag, but not clear it.
1135 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
1136 * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
1137 * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
1138 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1139 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1140 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1141 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
1142 * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.
1143 */

1212 * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
1213 *
1214 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
1215 * skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
1216 * The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
1217 * configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
1218 * preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately, more
1219 * importantly, however, it must never fail for A-MPDU-queues.
1220 * This function should return NETDEV_TX_OK except in very
1221 * limited cases.
1222 * Must be implemented and atomic.
1223 *
1224 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
1225 * is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
1226 * frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
1227 * Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
1228 * or zero.
1229 * When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
1230 * to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
1231 * is added.
1232 * Must be implemented.
1233 *
1234 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
1235 * is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
1236 * it must turn off frame reception.)
1237 * May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
1238 * an interface.
1239 * Must be implemented.
1240 *
1241 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
1242 * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
1243 * and @stop must be implemented.
1244 * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
1245 * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
1246 * interface is given in the conf parameter.
1247 * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
1248 * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
1249 * Must be implemented.
1250 *
1251 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
1252 * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
1253 * and no monitor interfaces are present.
1254 * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
1255 * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
1256 * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
1257 * MAC address of the device going away.
1258 * Hence, this callback must be implemented.
1259 *
1260 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
1261 * function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
1262 * This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
1263 * if it does.
1264 *
1265 * @config_interface: Handler for configuration requests related to interfaces
1266 * (e.g. BSSID changes.)
1267 * Returns a negative error code which will be seen in userspace.
1268 *
1269 * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
1270 * parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
1271 * level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
1272 * This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
1273 * for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
1274 * of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made.
1275 *
1276 * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
1277 * See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
1278 * This callback must be implemented and atomic.
1279 *
1280 * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
1281 * must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
1282 *
1283 * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
1284 * This callback can sleep, and is only called between add_interface
1285 * and remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
1286 * is enabled.
1287 * Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
1288 *
1289 * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
1290 * This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
1291 * which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
1292 *
1293 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
1294 * the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
1295 * configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's registered
1296 * bands. When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be
1297 * called; note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish
1298 * because the hardware is turned off! Anything else is a bug!
1299 * Returns a negative error code which will be seen in userspace.
1300 *
1301 * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
1302 * Returns zero if statistics are available.
1303 *
1304 * @get_tkip_seq: If your device implements TKIP encryption in hardware this
1305 * callback should be provided to read the TKIP transmit IVs (both IV32
1306 * and IV16) for the given key from hardware.
1307 *
1308 * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
1309 *
1310 * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about addition, removal or power
1311 * state transition of an associated station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc.
1312 * Must be atomic.
1313 *
1314 * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
1315 * bursting) for a hardware TX queue.
1316 * Returns a negative error code on failure.
1317 *
1318 * @get_tx_stats: Get statistics of the current TX queue status. This is used
1319 * to get number of currently queued packets (queue length), maximum queue
1320 * size (limit), and total number of packets sent using each TX queue
1321 * (count). The 'stats' pointer points to an array that has hw->queues +
1322 * hw->ampdu_queues items.
1323 *
1324 * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
1325 * this is only used for IBSS mode debugging and, as such, is not a
1326 * required function. Must be atomic.
1327 *
1328 * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
1329 * with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
1330 * function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
1331 * TSF synchronization.
1332 *
1333 * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
1334 * This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
1335 * used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
1336 * Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon.
1337 *
1338 * @ampdu_action: Perform a certain A-MPDU action
1339 * The RA/TID combination determines the destination and TID we want
1340 * the ampdu action to be performed for. The action is defined through
1341 * ieee80211_ampdu_mlme_action. Starting sequence number (@ssn)
1342 * is the first frame we expect to perform the action on. Notice
1343 * that TX/RX_STOP can pass NULL for this parameter.
1344 * Returns a negative error code on failure.
