The low-level driver must not call any 38 * other functions in hardware interrupt context.

This is not to be confused 1229 * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking 1230 * up the hardware before issueing commands to the hardware and putting it 1231 * back to sleep at approriate times. 1232 * 1233 * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the 1234 * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon.

The hardware is of course still 1241 * required to pass up beacons.

It usuallly works so that 1279 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly 1280 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the 1281 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That 1282 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information 1283 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed. 1284 * 1285 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTER 1286 * hardware capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support 1287 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When 1288 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the 1289 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss(). 1290 * 1291 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the 1292 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call 1293 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled 1294 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future. 1295 * 1296 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing 1297 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211 1298 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense 1299 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include 1300 * - a list of information element IDs 1301 * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element 1302 * 1303 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the 1304 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense 1305 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device 1306 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all 1307 * vendor information elements. 1308 * 1309 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information 1310 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon. 1311 * 1312 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing 1313 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing 1314 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and 1315 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136, 1316 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility 1317 * it could also include some currently unused IDs. 1318 * 1319 * 1320 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the 1321 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming 1322 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of 1323 * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when 1324 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above 1325 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be 1326 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement 1327 * them as the roaming algorithm requires. 1328 * 1329 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to 1330 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the 1331 * signal strength threshold checking. 1332 */ 1333 1334 /** 1335 * DOC: Spatial multiplexing power save 1336 * 1337 * SMPS (Spatial multiplexing power save) is a mechanism to conserve 1338 * power in an 802.11n implementation.

However, for best CPU usage and power consumption, 1365 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is 1366 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible. 1367 * 1368 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell 1369 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be 1370 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out. 1371 * 1372 * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast() 1373 * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list 1374 * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces. 1375 * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to 1376 * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the 1377 * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and 1378 * @total_flags with the new flag states. 1379 * 1380 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will 1381 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count 1382 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted 1383 * or dropped. 1384 * 1385 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared. 1386 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_ 1387 * the frame to the stack.
