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.

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.

77 * helpers for sanity checking. Drivers must ensure all work added onto the

464 * so consider using block ack request (BAR).
465 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_RATE_CTRL_PROBE: internal to mac80211, can be
466 * set by rate control algorithms to indicate probe rate, will
467 * be cleared for fragmented frames (except on the last fragment)
468 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_OFFCHAN_TX_OK: Internal to mac80211. Used to indicate
469 * that a frame can be transmitted while the queues are stopped for
470 * off-channel operation.
471 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NEED_TXPROCESSING: completely internal to mac80211,
472 * used to indicate that a pending frame requires TX processing before
473 * it can be sent out.
474 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRIED: completely internal to mac80211,
475 * used to indicate that a frame was already retried due to PS
476 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT: completely internal to mac80211,
477 * used to indicate frame should not be encrypted
478 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER: This frame is a response to a poll
479 * frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD) or a non-bufferable MMPDU and must
480 * be sent although the station is in powersave mode.
481 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES: More frames will be passed to the
482 * transmit function after the current frame, this can be used
483 * by drivers to kick the DMA queue only if unset or when the
484 * queue gets full.
485 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRANSMISSION: This frame is being retransmitted
486 * after TX status because the destination was asleep, it must not
487 * be modified again (no seqno assignment, crypto, etc.)
488 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_MLME_CONN_TX: This frame was transmitted by the MLME
489 * code for connection establishment, this indicates that its status
490 * should kick the MLME state machine.
491 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NL80211_FRAME_TX: Frame was requested through nl80211
492 * MLME command (internal to mac80211 to figure out whether to send TX
493 * status to user space)
494 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_LDPC: tells the driver to use LDPC for this frame
495 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_STBC: Enables Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) for this
496 * frame and selects the maximum number of streams that it can use.
497 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN: Marks this packet to be transmitted on
498 * the off-channel channel when a remain-on-channel offload is done
499 * in hardware -- normal packets still flow and are expected to be
500 * handled properly by the device.
501 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_TKIP_MIC_FAILURE: Marks this packet to be used for TKIP
502 * testing. It will be sent out with incorrect Michael MIC key to allow
503 * TKIP countermeasures to be tested.
504 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_CCK_RATE: This frame will be sent at non CCK rate.
505 * This flag is actually used for management frame especially for P2P
506 * frames not being sent at CCK rate in 2GHz band.
507 * @IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP: This packet marks the end of service period,
508 * when its status is reported the service period ends. For frames in
509 * an SP that mac80211 transmits, it is already set; for driver frames
510 * the driver may set this flag. It is also used to do the same for
511 * PS-Poll responses.
512 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_USE_MINRATE: This frame will be sent at lowest rate.
513 * This flag is used to send nullfunc frame at minimum rate when
514 * the nullfunc is used for connection monitoring purpose.
515 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_DONTFRAG: Don't fragment this packet even if it
516 * would be fragmented by size (this is optional, only used for
517 * monitor injection).
518 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_NOACK_TRANSMITTED: A frame that was marked with
519 * IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK has been successfully transmitted without
520 * any errors (like issues specific to the driver/HW).
521 * This flag must not be set for frames that don't request no-ack
522 * behaviour with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK.
523 *
524 * Note: If you have to add new flags to the enumeration, then don't
525 * forget to update %IEEE80211_TX_TEMPORARY_FLAGS when necessary.

1563 * The hardware or firmware includes rate control, and cannot be

1566 * will be taken from the TX status instead of the rate control

1580 * Some wireless LAN chipsets buffer broadcast/multicast frames
1581 * for power saving stations in the hardware/firmware and others
1582 * rely on the host system for such buffering. This option is used
1583 * to configure the IEEE 802.11 upper layer to buffer broadcast and

1644 * autonomously manages the PS status of connected stations. When

1656 * active interfaces.
1657 *
1658 * @IEEE80211_HW_NO_AUTO_VIF: The driver would like for no wlanX to
1659 * be created. It is expected user-space will create vifs as
1660 * desired (and thus have them named as desired).
1661 *
1662 * @IEEE80211_HW_SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL: The driver wants to control which of the
1663 * crypto algorithms can be done in software - so don't automatically
1664 * try to fall back to it if hardware crypto fails, but do so only if
1665 * the driver returns 1. This also forces the driver to advertise its
1666 * supported cipher suites.
1667 *
1668 * @IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL: The driver wants to control per-interface
1669 * queue mapping in order to use different queues (not just one per AC)
1670 * for different virtual interfaces. See the doc section on HW queue
1671 * control for more details.
1672 *
1673 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_RC_TABLE: The driver supports using a rate
1674 * selection table provided by the rate control algorithm.
1675 *
1676 * @IEEE80211_HW_P2P_DEV_ADDR_FOR_INTF: Use the P2P Device address for any
1677 * P2P Interface. This will be honoured even if more than one interface
1678 * is supported.
1679 *
1680 * @IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY: Use sync timing from beacon frames
1681 * only, to allow getting TBTT of a DTIM beacon.
1682 *
1683 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_HT_CCK_RATES: Hardware supports mixing HT/CCK rates
1684 * and can cope with CCK rates in an aggregation session (e.g. by not
1685 * using aggregation for such frames.)
1686 *
1687 * @IEEE80211_HW_CHANCTX_STA_CSA: Support 802.11h based channel-switch (CSA)
1688 * for a single active channel while using channel contexts. When support
1689 * is not enabled the default action is to disconnect when getting the
1690 * CSA frame.
1691 *
1692 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_CLONED_SKBS: The driver will never modify the payload
1693 * or tailroom of TX skbs without copying them first.

1972 *
1973 * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1974 * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
1975 * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1976 * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1977 * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
1978 * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1979 * VLANs are configured for an access point.
1980 *
1981 * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1982 * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1983 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1984 *
1985 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1986 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1987 * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
1988 * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
1989 *
1990 * Note that in the case that the @IEEE80211_HW_SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL flag is
1991 * set, mac80211 will not automatically fall back to software crypto if
1992 * enabling hardware crypto failed. The set_key() call may also return the
1993 * value 1 to permit this specific key/algorithm to be done in software.
1994 *
1995 * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
1996 *
1997 * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
1998 * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
1999 * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
2000 * based on the receive flags.
2001 *
2002 * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
2003 * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
2004 * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
2005 * keys.
2006 *
2007 * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
2008 * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
2009 * handler.
2010 * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
2011 * This happens every time the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The

2014 * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
2015 * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.

2023 * DOC: Powersave support
2024 *
2025 * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
2026 *
2027 * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
2028 * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
2029 * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
2030 * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
2031 * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
2032 * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
2033 * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
2034 * it finds traffic directed to it.
2035 *
2036 * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
2037 * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
2038 * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
2039 * up the hardware before issuing commands to the hardware and putting it
2040 * back to sleep at appropriate times.
2041 *
2042 * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
2043 * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
2044 * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
2045 *
2046 * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
2047 * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
2048 * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
2049 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
2050 * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
2051 * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
2052 * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
2053 *
2054 * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
2055 * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
2056 * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
2057 * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
2058 * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
2059 * periods.
2060 *
2061 * Dynamic powersave is simply supported by mac80211 enabling and disabling
2062 * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
2063 * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
2064 * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
2065 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
2066 * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
2067 * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
2068 * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
2069 * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
2070 * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
2071 *
2072 * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
2073 * %IEEE80211_VIF_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
2074 * uapsd parameter in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
2075 * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
2076 * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
2077 * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.
2078 *
2079 * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with
2080 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK.

2083 /**
2084 * DOC: Beacon filter support
2085 *
2086 * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
2087 * which will reduce system power consumption. It usually works so that
2088 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
2089 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
2090 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
2091 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
2092 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
2093 *
2094 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER
2095 * interface capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
2096 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
2097 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
2098 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
2099 *
2100 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
2101 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
2102 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
2103 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
2104 *
2105 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
2106 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
2107 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
2108 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
2109 * - a list of information element IDs
2110 * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
2111 *
2112 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
2113 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
2114 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
2115 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
2116 * vendor information elements.
2117 *
2118 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
2119 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
2120 *
2121 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
2122 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
2123 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
2124 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
2125 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
2126 * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
2127 *
2128 *
2129 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
2130 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
2131 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
2132 * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
2133 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
2134 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
2135 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
2136 * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
2137 *
2138 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
2139 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
2140 * signal strength threshold checking.

2169 * DOC: Frame filtering
2170 *
2171 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
2172 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
2173 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
2174 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
2175 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
2176 *
2177 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
2178 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
2179 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
2180 *
2181 * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
2182 * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
2183 * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
2184 * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
2185 * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
2186 * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
2187 * @total_flags with the new flag states.
2188 *
2189 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
2190 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
2191 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
2192 * or dropped.
2193 *

2198 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the

2209 * DOC: AP support for powersaving clients
2210 *
2211 * In order to implement AP and P2P GO modes, mac80211 has support for
2212 * client powersaving, both "legacy" PS (PS-Poll/null data) and uAPSD.
2213 * There currently is no support for sAPSD.
2214 *
2215 * There is one assumption that mac80211 makes, namely that a client
2216 * will not poll with PS-Poll and trigger with uAPSD at the same time.
2217 * Both are supported, and both can be used by the same client, but
2218 * they can't be used concurrently by the same client. This simplifies
2219 * the driver code.
2220 *
2221 * The first thing to keep in mind is that there is a flag for complete
2222 * driver implementation: %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS. If this flag is set,
2223 * mac80211 expects the driver to handle most of the state machine for
2224 * powersaving clients and will ignore the PM bit in incoming frames.
2225 * Drivers then use ieee80211_sta_ps_transition() to inform mac80211 of
2226 * stations' powersave transitions. In this mode, mac80211 also doesn't
2227 * handle PS-Poll/uAPSD.
2228 *
2229 * In the mode without %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS, mac80211 will check the
2230 * PM bit in incoming frames for client powersave transitions. When a
2231 * station goes to sleep, we will stop transmitting to it. There is,
2232 * however, a race condition: a station might go to sleep while there is
2233 * data buffered on hardware queues. If the device has support for this
2234 * it will reject frames, and the driver should give the frames back to
2235 * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED flag set which will
2236 * cause mac80211 to retry the frame when the station wakes up. The
2237 * driver is also notified of powersave transitions by calling its
2238 * @sta_notify callback.
2239 *
2240 * When the station is asleep, it has three choices: it can wake up,
2241 * it can PS-Poll, or it can possibly start a uAPSD service period.
2242 * Waking up is implemented by simply transmitting all buffered (and
2243 * filtered) frames to the station. This is the easiest case. When
2244 * the station sends a PS-Poll or a uAPSD trigger frame, mac80211
2245 * will inform the driver of this with the @allow_buffered_frames
2246 * callback; this callback is optional. mac80211 will then transmit
2247 * the frames as usual and set the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER
2248 * on each frame. The last frame in the service period (or the only
2249 * response to a PS-Poll) also has %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set to
2250 * indicate that it ends the service period; as this frame must have
2251 * TX status report it also sets %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS.
2252 * When TX status is reported for this frame, the service period is
2253 * marked has having ended and a new one can be started by the peer.
2254 *
2255 * Additionally, non-bufferable MMPDUs can also be transmitted by
2256 * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER set in them.
2257 *
2258 * Another race condition can happen on some devices like iwlwifi
2259 * when there are frames queued for the station and it wakes up
2260 * or polls; the frames that are already queued could end up being
2261 * transmitted first instead, causing reordering and/or wrong
2262 * processing of the EOSP. The cause is that allowing frames to be
2263 * transmitted to a certain station is out-of-band communication to
2264 * the device. To allow this problem to be solved, the driver can
2265 * call ieee80211_sta_block_awake() if frames are buffered when it
2266 * is notified that the station went to sleep. When all these frames
2267 * have been filtered (see above), it must call the function again
2268 * to indicate that the station is no longer blocked.
2269 *
2270 * If the driver buffers frames in the driver for aggregation in any
2271 * way, it must use the ieee80211_sta_set_buffered() call when it is
2272 * notified of the station going to sleep to inform mac80211 of any
2273 * TIDs that have frames buffered. Note that when a station wakes up
2274 * this information is reset (hence the requirement to call it when
2275 * informed of the station going to sleep). Then, when a service
2276 * period starts for any reason, @release_buffered_frames is called
2277 * with the number of frames to be released and which TIDs they are
2278 * to come from. In this case, the driver is responsible for setting
2279 * the EOSP (for uAPSD) and MORE_DATA bits in the released frames,
2280 * to help the @more_data parameter is passed to tell the driver if
2281 * there is more data on other TIDs -- the TIDs to release frames
2282 * from are ignored since mac80211 doesn't know how many frames the
2283 * buffers for those TIDs contain.
2284 *
2285 * If the driver also implement GO mode, where absence periods may
2286 * shorten service periods (or abort PS-Poll responses), it must
2287 * filter those response frames except in the case of frames that
2288 * are buffered in the driver -- those must remain buffered to avoid
2289 * reordering. Because it is possible that no frames are released
2290 * in this case, the driver must call ieee80211_sta_eosp()
2291 * to indicate to mac80211 that the service period ended anyway.
2292 *
2293 * Finally, if frames from multiple TIDs are released from mac80211
2294 * but the driver might reorder them, it must clear & set the flags
2295 * appropriately (only the last frame may have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP)
2296 * and also take care of the EOSP and MORE_DATA bits in the frame.
2297 * The driver may also use ieee80211_sta_eosp() in this case.
2298 *
2299 * Note that if the driver ever buffers frames other than QoS-data
2300 * frames, it must take care to never send a non-QoS-data frame as
2301 * the last frame in a service period, adding a QoS-nulldata frame
2302 * after a non-QoS-data frame if needed.

2305 /**
2306 * DOC: HW queue control
2307 *
2308 * Before HW queue control was introduced, mac80211 only had a single static
2309 * assignment of per-interface AC software queues to hardware queues. This
2310 * was problematic for a few reasons:
2311 * 1) off-channel transmissions might get stuck behind other frames
2312 * 2) multiple virtual interfaces couldn't be handled correctly
2313 * 3) after-DTIM frames could get stuck behind other frames
2314 *
2315 * To solve this, hardware typically uses multiple different queues for all
2316 * the different usages, and this needs to be propagated into mac80211 so it
2317 * won't have the same problem with the software queues.
2318 *
2319 * Therefore, mac80211 now offers the %IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL capability
2320 * flag that tells it that the driver implements its own queue control. To do
2321 * so, the driver will set up the various queues in each &struct ieee80211_vif
2322 * and the offchannel queue in &struct ieee80211_hw. In response, mac80211 will
2323 * use those queue IDs in the hw_queue field of &struct ieee80211_tx_info and
2324 * if necessary will queue the frame on the right software queue that mirrors
2325 * the hardware queue.
2326 * Additionally, the driver has to then use these HW queue IDs for the queue
2327 * management functions (ieee80211_stop_queue() et al.)
2328 *
2329 * The driver is free to set up the queue mappings as needed, multiple virtual
2330 * interfaces may map to the same hardware queues if needed. The setup has to
2331 * happen during add_interface or change_interface callbacks. For example, a
2332 * driver supporting station+station and station+AP modes might decide to have
2333 * 10 hardware queues to handle different scenarios:
2334 *
2335 * 4 AC HW queues for 1st vif: 0, 1, 2, 3
2336 * 4 AC HW queues for 2nd vif: 4, 5, 6, 7
2337 * after-DTIM queue for AP: 8
2338 * off-channel queue: 9
2339 *
2340 * It would then set up the hardware like this:
2341 * hw.offchannel_tx_hw_queue = 9
2342 *
2343 * and the first virtual interface that is added as follows:
2344 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VO] = 0
2345 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VI] = 1
2346 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BE] = 2
2347 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BK] = 3
2348 * vif.cab_queue = 8 // if AP mode, otherwise %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2349 * and the second virtual interface with 4-7.
2350 *
2351 * If queue 6 gets full, for example, mac80211 would only stop the second
2352 * virtual interface's BE queue since virtual interface queues are per AC.
2353 *
2354 * Note that the vif.cab_queue value should be set to %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2355 * whenever the queue is not used (i.e. the interface is not in AP mode) if the
2356 * queue could potentially be shared since mac80211 will look at cab_queue when
2357 * a queue is stopped/woken even if the interface is not in AP mode.

2518 * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
2519 *
2520 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
2521 * skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
2522 * The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
2523 * configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
2524 * preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately.
2525 * Must be atomic.
2526 *
2527 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
2528 * is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
2529 * frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
2530 * Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
2531 * or zero.
2532 * When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
2533 * to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
2534 * is added.
2535 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
2536 *
2537 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
2538 * is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
2539 * it must turn off frame reception.)
2540 * May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
2541 * an interface. If you added any work onto the mac80211 workqueue
2542 * you should ensure to cancel it on this callback.
2543 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
2544 *
2545 * @suspend: Suspend the device; mac80211 itself will quiesce before and
2546 * stop transmitting and doing any other configuration, and then
2547 * ask the device to suspend. This is only invoked when WoWLAN is
2548 * configured, otherwise the device is deconfigured completely and
2549 * reconfigured at resume time.
2550 * The driver may also impose special conditions under which it
2551 * wants to use the "normal" suspend (deconfigure), say if it only
2552 * supports WoWLAN when the device is associated. In this case, it
2553 * must return 1 from this function.
2554 *
2555 * @resume: If WoWLAN was configured, this indicates that mac80211 is
2556 * now resuming its operation, after this the device must be fully
2557 * functional again. If this returns an error, the only way out is
2558 * to also unregister the device. If it returns 1, then mac80211
2559 * will also go through the regular complete restart on resume.
2560 *
2561 * @set_wakeup: Enable or disable wakeup when WoWLAN configuration is
2562 * modified. The reason is that device_set_wakeup_enable() is
2563 * supposed to be called when the configuration changes, not only
2564 * in suspend().
2565 *
2566 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
2567 * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
2568 * and @stop must be implemented.
2569 * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
2570 * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
2571 * interface is given in the conf parameter.
2572 * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
2573 * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
2574 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
2575 *
2576 * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback
2577 * is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be
2578 * switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep.
2579 * Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be
2580 * found by the interface iteration callbacks.
2581 *
2582 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
2583 * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
2584 * and no monitor interfaces are present.
2585 * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
2586 * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
2587 * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
2588 * MAC address of the device going away.
2589 * Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.
2590 *
2591 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
2592 * function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
2593 * This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
2594 * if it does. The callback can sleep.
2595 *
2596 * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
2597 * parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
2598 * level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
2599 * This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
2600 * for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
2601 * of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback
2602 * can sleep.
2603 *
2604 * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration.
2605 * This callback is optional, and its return value is passed
2606 * to configure_filter(). This callback must be atomic.
2607 *
2608 * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
2609 * See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
2610 * This callback must be implemented and can sleep.
2611 *
2612 * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
2613 * must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
2614 *
2615 * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2616 * This callback is only called between add_interface and
2617 * remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
2618 * is enabled.
2619 * Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
2620 * The callback can sleep.
2621 *
2622 * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2623 * This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
2624 * which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
2625 * The callback must be atomic.
2626 *
2627 * @set_rekey_data: If the device supports GTK rekeying, for example while the
2628 * host is suspended, it can assign this callback to retrieve the data
2629 * necessary to do GTK rekeying, this is the KEK, KCK and replay counter.
2630 * After rekeying was done it should (for example during resume) notify
2631 * userspace of the new replay counter using ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify().
2632 *
2633 * @set_default_unicast_key: Set the default (unicast) key index, useful for
2634 * WEP when the device sends data packets autonomously, e.g. for ARP
2635 * offloading. The index can be 0-3, or -1 for unsetting it.
2636 *
2637 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
2638 * the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
2639 * configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
2640 * registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
2641 * that power save is disabled.
2642 * The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
2643 * entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
2644 * at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
2645 * (extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
2646 * When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
2647 * note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
2648 * any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
2649 * The callback can sleep.
2650 *
2651 * @cancel_hw_scan: Ask the low-level tp cancel the active hw scan.
2652 * The driver should ask the hardware to cancel the scan (if possible),
2653 * but the scan will be completed only after the driver will call
2654 * ieee80211_scan_completed().
2655 * This callback is needed for wowlan, to prevent enqueueing a new
2656 * scan_work after the low-level driver was already suspended.
2657 * The callback can sleep.
2658 *
2659 * @sched_scan_start: Ask the hardware to start scanning repeatedly at
2660 * specific intervals. The driver must call the
2661 * ieee80211_sched_scan_results() function whenever it finds results.
2662 * This process will continue until sched_scan_stop is called.
2663 *
2664 * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the hardware to stop an ongoing scheduled scan.
2665 * In this case, ieee80211_sched_scan_stopped() must not be called.
2666 *
2667 * @sw_scan_start: Notifier function that is called just before a software scan
2668 * is started. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
2669 * The mac_addr parameter allows supporting NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_RANDOM_ADDR,
2670 * the driver may set the NL80211_FEATURE_SCAN_RANDOM_MAC_ADDR flag if it
2671 * can use this parameter. The callback can sleep.
2672 *
2673 * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a
2674 * software scan finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need
2675 * this notification.
2676 * The callback can sleep.
2677 *
2678 * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
2679 * Returns zero if statistics are available.
2680 * The callback can sleep.
2681 *
2682 * @get_tkip_seq: If your device implements TKIP encryption in hardware this
2683 * callback should be provided to read the TKIP transmit IVs (both IV32
2684 * and IV16) for the given key from hardware.
2685 * The callback must be atomic.
2686 *
2687 * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this
2688 * if the device does fragmentation by itself; if this callback is
2689 * implemented then the stack will not do fragmentation.
2690 * The callback can sleep.
2691 *
2692 * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
2693 * The callback can sleep.
2694 *
2695 * @sta_add: Notifies low level driver about addition of an associated station,
2696 * AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
2697 *
2698 * @sta_remove: Notifies low level driver about removal of an associated
2699 * station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. Note that after the callback
2700 * returns it isn't safe to use the pointer, not even RCU protected;
2701 * no RCU grace period is guaranteed between returning here and freeing
2702 * the station. See @sta_pre_rcu_remove if needed.
2703 * This callback can sleep.
2704 *
2705 * @sta_add_debugfs: Drivers can use this callback to add debugfs files
2706 * when a station is added to mac80211's station list. This callback
2707 * and @sta_remove_debugfs should be within a CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS
2708 * conditional. This callback can sleep.
2709 *
2710 * @sta_remove_debugfs: Remove the debugfs files which were added using
2711 * @sta_add_debugfs. This callback can sleep.
2712 *
2713 * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about power state transition of an
2714 * associated station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. For a VIF operating
2715 * in AP mode, this callback will not be called when the flag
2716 * %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS is set. Must be atomic.
2717 *
2718 * @sta_state: Notifies low level driver about state transition of a
2719 * station (which can be the AP, a client, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc.)
2720 * This callback is mutually exclusive with @sta_add/@sta_remove.
2721 * It must not fail for down transitions but may fail for transitions
2722 * up the list of states. Also note that after the callback returns it
2723 * isn't safe to use the pointer, not even RCU protected - no RCU grace
2724 * period is guaranteed between returning here and freeing the station.
2725 * See @sta_pre_rcu_remove if needed.
2726 * The callback can sleep.
2727 *
2728 * @sta_pre_rcu_remove: Notify driver about station removal before RCU
2729 * synchronisation. This is useful if a driver needs to have station
2730 * pointers protected using RCU, it can then use this call to clear
2731 * the pointers instead of waiting for an RCU grace period to elapse
2732 * in @sta_state.
2733 * The callback can sleep.
2734 *
2735 * @sta_rc_update: Notifies the driver of changes to the bitrates that can be
2736 * used to transmit to the station. The changes are advertised with bits
2737 * from &enum ieee80211_rate_control_changed and the values are reflected
2738 * in the station data. This callback should only be used when the driver
2739 * uses hardware rate control (%IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL) since
2740 * otherwise the rate control algorithm is notified directly.
2741 * Must be atomic.
2742 * @sta_rate_tbl_update: Notifies the driver that the rate table changed. This
2743 * is only used if the configured rate control algorithm actually uses
2744 * the new rate table API, and is therefore optional. Must be atomic.
2745 *
2746 * @sta_statistics: Get statistics for this station. For example with beacon
2747 * filtering, the statistics kept by mac80211 might not be accurate, so
2748 * let the driver pre-fill the statistics. The driver can fill most of
2749 * the values (indicating which by setting the filled bitmap), but not
2750 * all of them make sense - see the source for which ones are possible.
2751 * Statistics that the driver doesn't fill will be filled by mac80211.
2752 * The callback can sleep.
2753 *
2754 * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
2755 * bursting) for a hardware TX queue.
2756 * Returns a negative error code on failure.
2757 * The callback can sleep.
2758 *
2759 * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
2760 * this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a
2761 * required function.
2762 * The callback can sleep.
2763 *
2764 * @set_tsf: Set the TSF timer to the specified value in the firmware/hardware.
2765 * Currently, this is only used for IBSS mode debugging. Is not a
2766 * required function.
2767 * The callback can sleep.
2768 *
2769 * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
2770 * with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
2771 * function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
2772 * TSF synchronization.
2773 * The callback can sleep.
2774 *
2775 * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
2776 * This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
2777 * used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
2778 * Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon.
2779 * The callback can sleep.
2780 *
2781 * @ampdu_action: Perform a certain A-MPDU action
2782 * The RA/TID combination determines the destination and TID we want
2783 * the ampdu action to be performed for. The action is defined through
2784 * ieee80211_ampdu_mlme_action. Starting sequence number (@ssn)
2785 * is the first frame we expect to perform the action on. Notice
2786 * that TX/RX_STOP can pass NULL for this parameter.
2787 * The @buf_size parameter is only valid when the action is set to
2788 * %IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL and indicates the peer's reorder
2789 * buffer size (number of subframes) for this session -- the driver
2790 * may neither send aggregates containing more subframes than this
2791 * nor send aggregates in a way that lost frames would exceed the
2792 * buffer size. If just limiting the aggregate size, this would be
2793 * possible with a buf_size of 8:
2794 * - TX: 1.....7
2795 * - RX: 2....7 (lost frame #1)
2796 * - TX: 8..1...
2797 * which is invalid since #1 was now re-transmitted well past the
2798 * buffer size of 8. Correct ways to retransmit #1 would be:
2799 * - TX: 1 or 18 or 81
2800 * Even "189" would be wrong since 1 could be lost again.
2801 *
2802 * Returns a negative error code on failure.
2803 * The callback can sleep.
2804 *
2805 * @get_survey: Return per-channel survey information
2806 *
2807 * @rfkill_poll: Poll rfkill hardware state. If you need this, you also
2808 * need to set wiphy->rfkill_poll to %true before registration,
2809 * and need to call wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state() in the callback.
2810 * The callback can sleep.
2811 *
2812 * @set_coverage_class: Set slot time for given coverage class as specified
2813 * in IEEE 802.11-2007 section 17.3.8.6 and modify ACK timeout
2814 * accordingly; coverage class equals to -1 to enable ACK timeout
2815 * estimation algorithm (dynack). To disable dynack set valid value for
2816 * coverage class. This callback is not required and may sleep.
2817 *
2818 * @testmode_cmd: Implement a cfg80211 test mode command. The passed @vif may
2819 * be %NULL. The callback can sleep.
2820 * @testmode_dump: Implement a cfg80211 test mode dump. The callback can sleep.
2821 *
2822 * @flush: Flush all pending frames from the hardware queue, making sure
2823 * that the hardware queues are empty. The @queues parameter is a bitmap
2824 * of queues to flush, which is useful if different virtual interfaces
2825 * use different hardware queues; it may also indicate all queues.
2826 * If the parameter @drop is set to %true, pending frames may be dropped.
2827 * Note that vif can be NULL.
2828 * The callback can sleep.
2829 *
2830 * @channel_switch: Drivers that need (or want) to offload the channel
2831 * switch operation for CSAs received from the AP may implement this
2832 * callback. They must then call ieee80211_chswitch_done() to indicate
2833 * completion of the channel switch.
2834 *
2835 * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device.
2836 * Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may
2837 * reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL
2838 * (also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX).
2839 *
2840 * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant).
2841 *
2842 * @remain_on_channel: Starts an off-channel period on the given channel, must
2843 * call back to ieee80211_ready_on_channel() when on that channel. Note
2844 * that normal channel traffic is not stopped as this is intended for hw
2845 * offload. Frames to transmit on the off-channel channel are transmitted
2846 * normally except for the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN flag. When the
2847 * duration (which will always be non-zero) expires, the driver must call
2848 * ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired().
2849 * Note that this callback may be called while the device is in IDLE and
2850 * must be accepted in this case.
2851 * This callback may sleep.
2852 * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Requests that an ongoing off-channel period is
2853 * aborted before it expires. This callback may sleep.
2854 *
2855 * @set_ringparam: Set tx and rx ring sizes.
2856 *
2857 * @get_ringparam: Get tx and rx ring current and maximum sizes.
2858 *
2859 * @tx_frames_pending: Check if there is any pending frame in the hardware
2860 * queues before entering power save.
2861 *
2862 * @set_bitrate_mask: Set a mask of rates to be used for rate control selection
2863 * when transmitting a frame. Currently only legacy rates are handled.
2864 * The callback can sleep.
2865 * @rssi_callback: Notify driver when the average RSSI goes above/below
2866 * thresholds that were registered previously. The callback can sleep.
2867 *
2868 * @release_buffered_frames: Release buffered frames according to the given
2869 * parameters. In the case where the driver buffers some frames for
2870 * sleeping stations mac80211 will use this callback to tell the driver
2871 * to release some frames, either for PS-poll or uAPSD.
2872 * Note that if the @more_data parameter is %false the driver must check
2873 * if there are more frames on the given TIDs, and if there are more than
2874 * the frames being released then it must still set the more-data bit in
2875 * the frame. If the @more_data parameter is %true, then of course the
2876 * more-data bit must always be set.
2877 * The @tids parameter tells the driver which TIDs to release frames
2878 * from, for PS-poll it will always have only a single bit set.
2879 * In the case this is used for a PS-poll initiated release, the
2880 * @num_frames parameter will always be 1 so code can be shared. In
2881 * this case the driver must also set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
2882 * on the TX status (and must report TX status) so that the PS-poll
2883 * period is properly ended. This is used to avoid sending multiple
2884 * responses for a retried PS-poll frame.
2885 * In the case this is used for uAPSD, the @num_frames parameter may be
2886 * bigger than one, but the driver may send fewer frames (it must send
2887 * at least one, however). In this case it is also responsible for
2888 * setting the EOSP flag in the QoS header of the frames. Also, when the
2889 * service period ends, the driver must set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP
2890 * on the last frame in the SP. Alternatively, it may call the function
2891 * ieee80211_sta_eosp() to inform mac80211 of the end of the SP.
2892 * This callback must be atomic.
2893 * @allow_buffered_frames: Prepare device to allow the given number of frames
2894 * to go out to the given station. The frames will be sent by mac80211
2895 * via the usual TX path after this call. The TX information for frames
2896 * released will also have the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER flag set
2897 * and the last one will also have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set. In case
2898 * frames from multiple TIDs are released and the driver might reorder
2899 * them between the TIDs, it must set the %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
2900 * on the last frame and clear it on all others and also handle the EOSP
2901 * bit in the QoS header correctly. Alternatively, it can also call the
2902 * ieee80211_sta_eosp() function.
2903 * The @tids parameter is a bitmap and tells the driver which TIDs the
2904 * frames will be on; it will at most have two bits set.
2905 * This callback must be atomic.
2906 *
2907 * @get_et_sset_count: Ethtool API to get string-set count.
2908 *
2909 * @get_et_stats: Ethtool API to get a set of u64 stats.
2910 *
2911 * @get_et_strings: Ethtool API to get a set of strings to describe stats
2912 * and perhaps other supported types of ethtool data-sets.
2913 *
2914 * @mgd_prepare_tx: Prepare for transmitting a management frame for association
2915 * before associated. In multi-channel scenarios, a virtual interface is
2916 * bound to a channel before it is associated, but as it isn't associated
2917 * yet it need not necessarily be given airtime, in particular since any
2918 * transmission to a P2P GO needs to be synchronized against the GO's
2919 * powersave state. mac80211 will call this function before transmitting a
2920 * management frame prior to having successfully associated to allow the
2921 * driver to give it channel time for the transmission, to get a response
2922 * and to be able to synchronize with the GO.
2923 * The callback will be called before each transmission and upon return
2924 * mac80211 will transmit the frame right away.
2925 * The callback is optional and can (should!) sleep.
2926 *
2927 * @mgd_protect_tdls_discover: Protect a TDLS discovery session. After sending
2928 * a TDLS discovery-request, we expect a reply to arrive on the AP's
2929 * channel. We must stay on the channel (no PSM, scan, etc.), since a TDLS
2930 * setup-response is a direct packet not buffered by the AP.
2931 * mac80211 will call this function just before the transmission of a TDLS
2932 * discovery-request. The recommended period of protection is at least
2933 * 2 * (DTIM period).
2934 * The callback is optional and can sleep.
2935 *
2936 * @add_chanctx: Notifies device driver about new channel context creation.
2937 * @remove_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context destruction.
2938 * @change_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context changes that
2939 * may happen when combining different virtual interfaces on the same
2940 * channel context with different settings
2941 * @assign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being bound
2942 * to vif. Possible use is for hw queue remapping.
2943 * @unassign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being
2944 * unbound from vif.
2945 * @switch_vif_chanctx: switch a number of vifs from one chanctx to
2946 * another, as specified in the list of
2947 * @ieee80211_vif_chanctx_switch passed to the driver, according
2948 * to the mode defined in &ieee80211_chanctx_switch_mode.
2949 *
2950 * @start_ap: Start operation on the AP interface, this is called after all the
2951 * information in bss_conf is set and beacon can be retrieved. A channel
2952 * context is bound before this is called. Note that if the driver uses
2953 * software scan or ROC, this (and @stop_ap) isn't called when the AP is
2954 * just "paused" for scanning/ROC, which is indicated by the beacon being
2955 * disabled/enabled via @bss_info_changed.
2956 * @stop_ap: Stop operation on the AP interface.
2957 *
2958 * @reconfig_complete: Called after a call to ieee80211_restart_hw() and
2959 * during resume, when the reconfiguration has completed.
2960 * This can help the driver implement the reconfiguration step (and
2961 * indicate mac80211 is ready to receive frames).
2962 * This callback may sleep.
2963 *
2964 * @ipv6_addr_change: IPv6 address assignment on the given interface changed.
2965 * Currently, this is only called for managed or P2P client interfaces.
2966 * This callback is optional; it must not sleep.
2967 *
2968 * @channel_switch_beacon: Starts a channel switch to a new channel.
2969 * Beacons are modified to include CSA or ECSA IEs before calling this
2970 * function. The corresponding count fields in these IEs must be
2971 * decremented, and when they reach 1 the driver must call
2972 * ieee80211_csa_finish(). Drivers which use ieee80211_beacon_get()
2973 * get the csa counter decremented by mac80211, but must check if it is
2974 * 1 using ieee80211_csa_is_complete() after the beacon has been
2975 * transmitted and then call ieee80211_csa_finish().
2976 * If the CSA count starts as zero or 1, this function will not be called,
2977 * since there won't be any time to beacon before the switch anyway.
2978 * @pre_channel_switch: This is an optional callback that is called
2979 * before a channel switch procedure is started (ie. when a STA
2980 * gets a CSA or an userspace initiated channel-switch), allowing
2981 * the driver to prepare for the channel switch.
2982 * @post_channel_switch: This is an optional callback that is called
2983 * after a channel switch procedure is completed, allowing the
2984 * driver to go back to a normal configuration.
2985 *
2986 * @join_ibss: Join an IBSS (on an IBSS interface); this is called after all
2987 * information in bss_conf is set up and the beacon can be retrieved. A
2988 * channel context is bound before this is called.
2989 * @leave_ibss: Leave the IBSS again.
2990 *
2991 * @get_expected_throughput: extract the expected throughput towards the
2992 * specified station. The returned value is expressed in Kbps. It returns 0
2993 * if the RC algorithm does not have proper data to provide.
2994 *
2995 * @get_txpower: get current maximum tx power (in dBm) based on configuration
2996 * and hardware limits.
2997 *
2998 * @tdls_channel_switch: Start channel-switching with a TDLS peer. The driver
2999 * is responsible for continually initiating channel-switching operations
3000 * and returning to the base channel for communication with the AP. The
3001 * driver receives a channel-switch request template and the location of
3002 * the switch-timing IE within the template as part of the invocation.
3003 * The template is valid only within the call, and the driver can
3004 * optionally copy the skb for further re-use.
3005 * @tdls_cancel_channel_switch: Stop channel-switching with a TDLS peer. Both
3006 * peers must be on the base channel when the call completes.
3007 * @tdls_recv_channel_switch: a TDLS channel-switch related frame (request or
3008 * response) has been received from a remote peer. The driver gets
3009 * parameters parsed from the incoming frame and may use them to continue
3010 * an ongoing channel-switch operation. In addition, a channel-switch
3011 * response template is provided, together with the location of the
3012 * switch-timing IE within the template. The skb can only be used within
3013 * the function call.
