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.

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!

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

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.

429  *	frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD) or a non-bufferable MMPDU and must
430  *	be sent although the station is in powersave mode.
431  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES: More frames will be passed to the
432  *	transmit function after the current frame, this can be used
433  *	by drivers to kick the DMA queue only if unset or when the
434  *	queue gets full.
435  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRANSMISSION: This frame is being retransmitted
436  *	after TX status because the destination was asleep, it must not
437  *	be modified again (no seqno assignment, crypto, etc.)
438  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_MLME_CONN_TX: This frame was transmitted by the MLME
439  *	code for connection establishment, this indicates that its status
440  *	should kick the MLME state machine.
441  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NL80211_FRAME_TX: Frame was requested through nl80211
442  *	MLME command (internal to mac80211 to figure out whether to send TX
443  *	status to user space)
444  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_LDPC: tells the driver to use LDPC for this frame
445  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_STBC: Enables Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) for this
446  *	frame and selects the maximum number of streams that it can use.
447  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN: Marks this packet to be transmitted on
448  *	the off-channel channel when a remain-on-channel offload is done
449  *	in hardware -- normal packets still flow and are expected to be
450  *	handled properly by the device.
451  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_TKIP_MIC_FAILURE: Marks this packet to be used for TKIP
452  *	testing. It will be sent out with incorrect Michael MIC key to allow
453  *	TKIP countermeasures to be tested.
454  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_CCK_RATE: This frame will be sent at non CCK rate.
455  *	This flag is actually used for management frame especially for P2P
456  *	frames not being sent at CCK rate in 2GHz band.
457  * @IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP: This packet marks the end of service period,
458  *	when its status is reported the service period ends. For frames in
459  *	an SP that mac80211 transmits, it is already set; for driver frames
460  *	the driver may set this flag. It is also used to do the same for
461  *	PS-Poll responses.
462  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_USE_MINRATE: This frame will be sent at lowest rate.
463  *	This flag is used to send nullfunc frame at minimum rate when
464  *	the nullfunc is used for connection monitoring purpose.
465  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_DONTFRAG: Don't fragment this packet even if it
466  *	would be fragmented by size (this is optional, only used for
467  *	monitor injection).
468  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_PS_RESPONSE: This frame is a response to a poll
469  *	frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD).
470  *
471  * Note: If you have to add new flags to the enumeration, then don't
472  *	 forget to update %IEEE80211_TX_TEMPORARY_FLAGS when necessary.

824  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_IS_LAST: this subframe is the last subframe of the A-MPDU
825  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DELIM_CRC_ERROR: A delimiter CRC error has been detected

832  * @RX_FLAG_AMSDU_MORE: Some drivers may prefer to report separate A-MSDU
833  *	subframes instead of a one huge frame for performance reasons.
834  *	All, but the last MSDU from an A-MSDU should have this flag set. E.g.
835  *	if an A-MSDU has 3 frames, the first 2 must have the flag set, while
836  *	the 3rd (last) one must not have this flag set. The flag is used to
837  *	deal with retransmission/duplication recovery properly since A-MSDU
838  *	subframes share the same sequence number. Reported subframes can be
839  *	either regular MSDU or singly A-MSDUs. Subframes must not be
840  *	interleaved with other frames.

1374  * done in a way that the simplest hardware doesn't need setting
1375  * any particular flags. There are some exceptions to this rule,
1376  * however, so you are advised to review these flags carefully.
1377  *
1378  * @IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL:
1379  *	The hardware or firmware includes rate control, and cannot be
1380  *	controlled by the stack. As such, no rate control algorithm
1381  *	should be instantiated, and the TX rate reported to userspace
1382  *	will be taken from the TX status instead of the rate control
1383  *	algorithm.
1384  *	Note that this requires that the driver implement a number of
1385  *	callbacks so it has the correct information, it needs to have
1386  *	the @set_rts_threshold callback and must look at the BSS config
1387  *	@use_cts_prot for G/N protection, @use_short_slot for slot
1388  *	timing in 2.4 GHz and @use_short_preamble for preambles for

1390  *
1391  * @IEEE80211_HW_RX_INCLUDES_FCS:
1392  *	Indicates that received frames passed to the stack include
1393  *	the FCS at the end.
1394  *
1395  * @IEEE80211_HW_HOST_BROADCAST_PS_BUFFERING:
1396  *	Some wireless LAN chipsets buffer broadcast/multicast frames
1397  *	for power saving stations in the hardware/firmware and others
1398  *	rely on the host system for such buffering. This option is used
1399  *	to configure the IEEE 802.11 upper layer to buffer broadcast and
1400  *	multicast frames when there are power saving stations so that
1401  *	the driver can fetch them with ieee80211_get_buffered_bc().
1402  *
1403  * @IEEE80211_HW_2GHZ_SHORT_SLOT_INCAPABLE:

1409  *
1410  * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC:
1411  *	Hardware can provide signal values but we don't know its units. We

1413  *	If possible please provide dB or dBm instead.
1414  *
1415  * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM:
1416  *	Hardware gives signal values in dBm, decibel difference from
1417  *	one milliwatt. This is the preferred method since it is standardized
1418  *	between different devices. @max_signal does not need to be set.
1419  *
1420  * @IEEE80211_HW_SPECTRUM_MGMT:
1421  * 	Hardware supports spectrum management defined in 802.11h

1427  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS:
1428  *	Hardware has power save support (i.e. can go to sleep).
1429  *
1430  * @IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK:
1431  *	Hardware requires nullfunc frame handling in stack, implies

1443  *	that should be using more chains.
1444  *
1445  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_SMPS:

1448  *	up as required after, for example, rts/cts handshake.
1449  *
1450  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD:
1451  *	Hardware supports Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery

1454  *
1455  * @IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS:
1456  *	Hardware can provide ack status reports of Tx frames to
1457  *	the stack.
1458  *
1459  * @IEEE80211_HW_CONNECTION_MONITOR:
1460  *	The hardware performs its own connection monitoring, including
1461  *	periodic keep-alives to the AP and probing the AP on beacon loss.
1462  *	When this flag is set, signaling beacon-loss will cause an immediate
1463  *	change to disassociated state.
1464  *
1465  * @IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_BEFORE_ASSOC:
1466  *	This device needs to get data from beacon before association (i.e.
1467  *	dtim_period).
1468  *
1469  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PER_STA_GTK: The device's crypto engine supports
1470  *	per-station GTKs as used by IBSS RSN or during fast transition. If
1471  *	the device doesn't support per-station GTKs, but can be asked not
1472  *	to decrypt group addressed frames, then IBSS RSN support is still
1473  *	possible but software crypto will be used. Advertise the wiphy flag
1474  *	only in that case.
1475  *
1476  * @IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS: When operating in AP mode the device
1477  *	autonomously manages the PS status of connected stations. When
1478  *	this flag is set mac80211 will not trigger PS mode for connected
1479  *	stations based on the PM bit of incoming frames.
1480  *	Use ieee80211_start_ps()/ieee8021_end_ps() to manually configure
1481  *	the PS mode of connected stations.
1482  *
1483  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_AMPDU_SETUP_IN_HW: The device handles TX A-MPDU session
1484  *	setup strictly in HW. mac80211 should not attempt to do this in
1485  *	software.
1486  *
1487  * @IEEE80211_HW_WANT_MONITOR_VIF: The driver would like to be informed of
1488  *	a virtual monitor interface when monitor interfaces are the only
1489  *	active interfaces.
1490  *
1491  * @IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL: The driver wants to control per-interface
1492  *	queue mapping in order to use different queues (not just one per AC)
1493  *	for different virtual interfaces. See the doc section on HW queue
1494  *	control for more details.
1495  *
1496  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_RC_TABLE: The driver supports using a rate
1497  *	selection table provided by the rate control algorithm.
1498  *
1499  * @IEEE80211_HW_P2P_DEV_ADDR_FOR_INTF: Use the P2P Device address for any
1500  *	P2P Interface. This will be honoured even if more than one interface
1501  *	is supported.
1502  *
1503  * @IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY: Use sync timing from beacon frames
1504  *	only, to allow getting TBTT of a DTIM beacon.
1505  *
1506  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_HT_CCK_RATES: Hardware supports mixing HT/CCK rates
1507  *	and can cope with CCK rates in an aggregation session (e.g. by not
1508  *	using aggregation for such frames.)
1509  *
1510  * @IEEE80211_HW_CHANCTX_STA_CSA: Support 802.11h based channel-switch (CSA)
1511  *	for a single active channel while using channel contexts. When support
1512  *	is not enabled the default action is to disconnect when getting the
1513  *	CSA frame.

1747  *
1748  * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1749  * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
1750  * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1751  * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1752  * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
1753  * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1754  * VLANs are configured for an access point.
1755  *
1756  * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1757  * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1758  * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1759  *
1760  * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1761  * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1762  * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
1763  * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
1764  *
1765  * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
1766  *
1767  * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
1768  * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
1769  * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
1770  * based on the receive flags.
1771  *
1772  * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
1773  * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
1774  * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate

1777  * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
1778  * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key

1781  * This happens every time the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
1782  * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
1783  * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
1784  * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this

1792 /**
1793  * DOC: Powersave support
1794  *
1795  * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
1796  *
1797  * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
1798  * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
1799  * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
1800  * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
1801  * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
1802  * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
1803  * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
1804  * it finds traffic directed to it.
1805  *
1806  * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
1807  * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
1808  * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
1809  * up the hardware before issuing commands to the hardware and putting it
1810  * back to sleep at appropriate times.
1811  *
1812  * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
1813  * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
1814  * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
1815  *
1816  * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1817  * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1818  * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1819  * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
1820  * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
1821  * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
1822  * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
1823  *
1824  * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
1825  * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
1826  * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
1827  * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
1828  * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
1829  * periods.
1830  *
1831  * Dynamic powersave is simply supported by mac80211 enabling and disabling
1832  * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1833  * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
1834  * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
1835  * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
1836  * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
1837  * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
1838  * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
1839  * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
1840  * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
1841  *
1842  * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
1843  * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
1844  * uapsd paramater in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
1845  * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
1846  * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
1847  * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.
1848  *
1849  * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with
1850  * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK.

1853 /**
1854  * DOC: Beacon filter support
1855  *
1856  * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1857  * which will reduce system power consumption. It usually works so that
1858  * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1859  * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
1860  * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
1861  * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1862  * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1863  *
1864  * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER
1865  * interface capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
1866  * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
1867  * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
1868  * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
1869  *
1870  * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
1871  * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
1872  * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
1873  * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
1874  *
1875  * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
1876  * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
1877  * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
1878  * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
1879  *  - a list of information element IDs
1880  *  - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
1881  *
1882  * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
1883  * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
1884  * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
1885  * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
1886  * vendor information elements.
1887  *
1888  * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
1889  * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
1890  *
1891  * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
1892  * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
1893  * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
1894  * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
1895  * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
1896  * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
1897  *
1898  *
1899  * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
1900  * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
1901  * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
1902  * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
1903  * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
1904  * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
1905  * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
1906  * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
1907  *
1908  * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
1909  * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
1910  * signal strength threshold checking.

1938 /**
1939  * DOC: Frame filtering
1940  *
1941  * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
1942  * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
1943  * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
1944  * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1945  * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1946  *
1947  * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
1948  * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
1949  * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
1950  *
1951  * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
1952  * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
1953  * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
1954  * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
1955  * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
1956  * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
1957  * @total_flags with the new flag states.
1958  *
1959  * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
1960  * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
1961  * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
1962  * or dropped.
1963  *
1964  * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
1965  * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
1966  * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
1967  * the flag, but not clear it.
1968  * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
1969  * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
1970  * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
1971  * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1972  * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1973  * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1974  * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
1975  * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.

1977 
1978 /**
1979  * DOC: AP support for powersaving clients
1980  *
1981  * In order to implement AP and P2P GO modes, mac80211 has support for
1982  * client powersaving, both "legacy" PS (PS-Poll/null data) and uAPSD.
1983  * There currently is no support for sAPSD.
1984  *
1985  * There is one assumption that mac80211 makes, namely that a client
1986  * will not poll with PS-Poll and trigger with uAPSD at the same time.
1987  * Both are supported, and both can be used by the same client, but
1988  * they can't be used concurrently by the same client. This simplifies
1989  * the driver code.
1990  *
1991  * The first thing to keep in mind is that there is a flag for complete
1992  * driver implementation: %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS. If this flag is set,
1993  * mac80211 expects the driver to handle most of the state machine for
1994  * powersaving clients and will ignore the PM bit in incoming frames.
1995  * Drivers then use ieee80211_sta_ps_transition() to inform mac80211 of
1996  * stations' powersave transitions. In this mode, mac80211 also doesn't
1997  * handle PS-Poll/uAPSD.
1998  *
1999  * In the mode without %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS, mac80211 will check the
2000  * PM bit in incoming frames for client powersave transitions. When a
2001  * station goes to sleep, we will stop transmitting to it. There is,
2002  * however, a race condition: a station might go to sleep while there is
2003  * data buffered on hardware queues. If the device has support for this
2004  * it will reject frames, and the driver should give the frames back to
2005  * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED flag set which will
2006  * cause mac80211 to retry the frame when the station wakes up. The
2007  * driver is also notified of powersave transitions by calling its
2008  * @sta_notify callback.
2009  *
2010  * When the station is asleep, it has three choices: it can wake up,
2011  * it can PS-Poll, or it can possibly start a uAPSD service period.
2012  * Waking up is implemented by simply transmitting all buffered (and
2013  * filtered) frames to the station. This is the easiest case. When
2014  * the station sends a PS-Poll or a uAPSD trigger frame, mac80211
2015  * will inform the driver of this with the @allow_buffered_frames
2016  * callback; this callback is optional. mac80211 will then transmit
2017  * the frames as usual and set the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER
2018  * on each frame. The last frame in the service period (or the only
2019  * response to a PS-Poll) also has %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set to
2020  * indicate that it ends the service period; as this frame must have
2021  * TX status report it also sets %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS.
2022  * When TX status is reported for this frame, the service period is
2023  * marked has having ended and a new one can be started by the peer.
2024  *
2025  * Additionally, non-bufferable MMPDUs can also be transmitted by
2026  * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER set in them.
2027  *
2028  * Another race condition can happen on some devices like iwlwifi
2029  * when there are frames queued for the station and it wakes up
2030  * or polls; the frames that are already queued could end up being
2031  * transmitted first instead, causing reordering and/or wrong
2032  * processing of the EOSP. The cause is that allowing frames to be
2033  * transmitted to a certain station is out-of-band communication to
2034  * the device. To allow this problem to be solved, the driver can
2035  * call ieee80211_sta_block_awake() if frames are buffered when it
2036  * is notified that the station went to sleep. When all these frames
2037  * have been filtered (see above), it must call the function again
2038  * to indicate that the station is no longer blocked.
2039  *
2040  * If the driver buffers frames in the driver for aggregation in any
2041  * way, it must use the ieee80211_sta_set_buffered() call when it is
2042  * notified of the station going to sleep to inform mac80211 of any
2043  * TIDs that have frames buffered. Note that when a station wakes up
2044  * this information is reset (hence the requirement to call it when
2045  * informed of the station going to sleep). Then, when a service
2046  * period starts for any reason, @release_buffered_frames is called
2047  * with the number of frames to be released and which TIDs they are
2048  * to come from. In this case, the driver is responsible for setting
2049  * the EOSP (for uAPSD) and MORE_DATA bits in the released frames,
2050  * to help the @more_data paramter is passed to tell the driver if
2051  * there is more data on other TIDs -- the TIDs to release frames
2052  * from are ignored since mac80211 doesn't know how many frames the
2053  * buffers for those TIDs contain.
2054  *
2055  * If the driver also implement GO mode, where absence periods may
2056  * shorten service periods (or abort PS-Poll responses), it must
2057  * filter those response frames except in the case of frames that
2058  * are buffered in the driver -- those must remain buffered to avoid
2059  * reordering. Because it is possible that no frames are released
2060  * in this case, the driver must call ieee80211_sta_eosp()
2061  * to indicate to mac80211 that the service period ended anyway.
2062  *
2063  * Finally, if frames from multiple TIDs are released from mac80211
2064  * but the driver might reorder them, it must clear & set the flags
2065  * appropriately (only the last frame may have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP)
2066  * and also take care of the EOSP and MORE_DATA bits in the frame.
2067  * The driver may also use ieee80211_sta_eosp() in this case.

2071  * DOC: HW queue control
2072  *
2073  * Before HW queue control was introduced, mac80211 only had a single static
2074  * assignment of per-interface AC software queues to hardware queues. This
2075  * was problematic for a few reasons:
2076  * 1) off-channel transmissions might get stuck behind other frames
2077  * 2) multiple virtual interfaces couldn't be handled correctly
2078  * 3) after-DTIM frames could get stuck behind other frames
2079  *
2080  * To solve this, hardware typically uses multiple different queues for all
2081  * the different usages, and this needs to be propagated into mac80211 so it
2082  * won't have the same problem with the software queues.
2083  *
2084  * Therefore, mac80211 now offers the %IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL capability
2085  * flag that tells it that the driver implements its own queue control. To do
2086  * so, the driver will set up the various queues in each &struct ieee80211_vif
2087  * and the offchannel queue in &struct ieee80211_hw. In response, mac80211 will
2088  * use those queue IDs in the hw_queue field of &struct ieee80211_tx_info and
2089  * if necessary will queue the frame on the right software queue that mirrors
2090  * the hardware queue.
2091  * Additionally, the driver has to then use these HW queue IDs for the queue
2092  * management functions (ieee80211_stop_queue() et al.)
2093  *
2094  * The driver is free to set up the queue mappings as needed, multiple virtual
2095  * interfaces may map to the same hardware queues if needed. The setup has to
2096  * happen during add_interface or change_interface callbacks. For example, a
2097  * driver supporting station+station and station+AP modes might decide to have
2098  * 10 hardware queues to handle different scenarios:
2099  *
2100  * 4 AC HW queues for 1st vif: 0, 1, 2, 3
2101  * 4 AC HW queues for 2nd vif: 4, 5, 6, 7
2102  * after-DTIM queue for AP:   8
2103  * off-channel queue:         9
2104  *
2105  * It would then set up the hardware like this:
2106  *   hw.offchannel_tx_hw_queue = 9
2107  *
2108  * and the first virtual interface that is added as follows:
2109  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VO] = 0
2110  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VI] = 1
2111  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BE] = 2
2112  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BK] = 3
2113  *   vif.cab_queue = 8 // if AP mode, otherwise %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2114  * and the second virtual interface with 4-7.
2115  *
2116  * If queue 6 gets full, for example, mac80211 would only stop the second
2117  * virtual interface's BE queue since virtual interface queues are per AC.
2118  *
2119  * Note that the vif.cab_queue value should be set to %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2120  * whenever the queue is not used (i.e. the interface is not in AP mode) if the
2121  * queue could potentially be shared since mac80211 will look at cab_queue when
2122  * a queue is stopped/woken even if the interface is not in AP mode.

2267  * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
2268  *
2269  * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
2270  *	skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
2271  *	The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
2272  *	configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
2273  *	preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately.
2274  *	Must be atomic.
2275  *
2276  * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
2277  *	is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
2278  *	frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
2279  *	Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
2280  *	or zero.
2281  *	When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
2282  *	to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
2283  *	is added.
2284  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
2285  *
2286  * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
2287  *	is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
2288  *	it must turn off frame reception.)
2289  *	May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
2290  *	an interface. If you added any work onto the mac80211 workqueue
2291  *	you should ensure to cancel it on this callback.
2292  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
2293  *
2294  * @suspend: Suspend the device; mac80211 itself will quiesce before and
2295  *	stop transmitting and doing any other configuration, and then
2296  *	ask the device to suspend. This is only invoked when WoWLAN is
2297  *	configured, otherwise the device is deconfigured completely and
2298  *	reconfigured at resume time.
2299  *	The driver may also impose special conditions under which it
2300  *	wants to use the "normal" suspend (deconfigure), say if it only
2301  *	supports WoWLAN when the device is associated. In this case, it
2302  *	must return 1 from this function.
2303  *
2304  * @resume: If WoWLAN was configured, this indicates that mac80211 is
2305  *	now resuming its operation, after this the device must be fully
2306  *	functional again. If this returns an error, the only way out is
2307  *	to also unregister the device. If it returns 1, then mac80211
2308  *	will also go through the regular complete restart on resume.
2309  *
2310  * @set_wakeup: Enable or disable wakeup when WoWLAN configuration is
2311  *	modified. The reason is that device_set_wakeup_enable() is
2312  *	supposed to be called when the configuration changes, not only
2313  *	in suspend().
2314  *
2315  * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
2316  *	enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
2317  *	and @stop must be implemented.
2318  *	The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
2319  *	the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
2320  *	interface is given in the conf parameter.
2321  *	The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
2322  *	negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
2323  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
2324  *
2325  * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback
2326  *	is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be
2327  *	switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep.
2328  *	Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be
2329  *	found by the interface iteration callbacks.
2330  *
2331  * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
2332  *	The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
2333  *	and no monitor interfaces are present.
2334  *	When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
2335  *	must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
2336  *	the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
2337  *	MAC address of the device going away.
2338  *	Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.
2339  *
2340  * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
2341  *	function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
2342  *	This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
2343  *	if it does. The callback can sleep.
2344  *
2345  * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
2346  *	parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
2347  *	level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
2348  *	This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
2349  *	for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
2350  *	of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback
2351  *	can sleep.
2352  *
2353  * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration.
2354  *	This callback is optional, and its return value is passed
2355  *	to configure_filter(). This callback must be atomic.
2356  *
2357  * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
2358  *	See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
2359  *	This callback must be implemented and can sleep.
2360  *
2361  * @set_multicast_list: Configure the device's interface specific RX multicast
2362  *	filter. This callback is optional. This callback must be atomic.
2363  *
2364  * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
2365  * 	must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
2366  *
2367  * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2368  *	This callback is only called between add_interface and
2369  *	remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
2370  *	is enabled.
2371  *	Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
2372  *	The callback can sleep.
2373  *
2374  * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2375  * 	This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
2376  * 	which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
2377  *	The callback must be atomic.
2378  *
2379  * @set_rekey_data: If the device supports GTK rekeying, for example while the
2380  *	host is suspended, it can assign this callback to retrieve the data
2381  *	necessary to do GTK rekeying, this is the KEK, KCK and replay counter.
2382  *	After rekeying was done it should (for example during resume) notify
2383  *	userspace of the new replay counter using ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify().
2384  *
2385  * @set_default_unicast_key: Set the default (unicast) key index, useful for
2386  *	WEP when the device sends data packets autonomously, e.g. for ARP
2387  *	offloading. The index can be 0-3, or -1 for unsetting it.
2388  *
2389  * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
2390  *	the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
2391  *	configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
2392  *	registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
2393  *	that power save is disabled.
2394  *	The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
2395  *	entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
2396  *	at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
2397  *	(extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
2398  *	When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
2399  *	note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
2400  *	any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
2401  *	The callback can sleep.
2402  *
2403  * @cancel_hw_scan: Ask the low-level tp cancel the active hw scan.
2404  *	The driver should ask the hardware to cancel the scan (if possible),
2405  *	but the scan will be completed only after the driver will call
2406  *	ieee80211_scan_completed().
2407  *	This callback is needed for wowlan, to prevent enqueueing a new
2408  *	scan_work after the low-level driver was already suspended.
2409  *	The callback can sleep.
2410  *
2411  * @sched_scan_start: Ask the hardware to start scanning repeatedly at
2412  *	specific intervals.  The driver must call the
2413  *	ieee80211_sched_scan_results() function whenever it finds results.
2414  *	This process will continue until sched_scan_stop is called.
2415  *
2416  * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the hardware to stop an ongoing scheduled scan.
2417  *
2418  * @sw_scan_start: Notifier function that is called just before a software scan
2419  *	is started. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
2420  *	The callback can sleep.
2421  *
2422  * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a
2423  *	software scan finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need
2424  *	this notification.
2425  *	The callback can sleep.
2426  *
2427  * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
2428  * 	Returns zero if statistics are available.
2429  *	The callback can sleep.
2430  *
2431  * @get_tkip_seq: If your device implements TKIP encryption in hardware this
2432  *	callback should be provided to read the TKIP transmit IVs (both IV32
2433  *	and IV16) for the given key from hardware.
2434  *	The callback must be atomic.
2435  *
2436  * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this
2437  *	if the device does fragmentation by itself; if this callback is
2438  *	implemented then the stack will not do fragmentation.
2439  *	The callback can sleep.
2440  *
2441  * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
2442  *	The callback can sleep.
2443  *
2444  * @sta_add: Notifies low level driver about addition of an associated station,
2445  *	AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
2446  *
2447  * @sta_remove: Notifies low level driver about removal of an associated
2448  *	station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
2449  *
2450  * @sta_add_debugfs: Drivers can use this callback to add debugfs files
2451  *	when a station is added to mac80211's station list. This callback
2452  *	and @sta_remove_debugfs should be within a CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS
2453  *	conditional. This callback can sleep.
2454  *
2455  * @sta_remove_debugfs: Remove the debugfs files which were added using
2456  *	@sta_add_debugfs. This callback can sleep.
2457  *
2458  * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about power state transition of an
2459  *	associated station, AP,  IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. For a VIF operating
2460  *	in AP mode, this callback will not be called when the flag
2461  *	%IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS is set. Must be atomic.
2462  *
2463  * @sta_state: Notifies low level driver about state transition of a
2464  *	station (which can be the AP, a client, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc.)
2465  *	This callback is mutually exclusive with @sta_add/@sta_remove.
2466  *	It must not fail for down transitions but may fail for transitions
2467  *	up the list of states.
2468  *	The callback can sleep.
2469  *
2470  * @sta_rc_update: Notifies the driver of changes to the bitrates that can be
2471  *	used to transmit to the station. The changes are advertised with bits
2472  *	from &enum ieee80211_rate_control_changed and the values are reflected
2473  *	in the station data. This callback should only be used when the driver
2474  *	uses hardware rate control (%IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL) since
2475  *	otherwise the rate control algorithm is notified directly.
2476  *	Must be atomic.
2477  *
2478  * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
2479  *	bursting) for a hardware TX queue.
2480  *	Returns a negative error code on failure.
2481  *	The callback can sleep.
2482  *
2483  * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
2484  *	this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a
2485  *	required function.
2486  *	The callback can sleep.
2487  *
2488  * @set_tsf: Set the TSF timer to the specified value in the firmware/hardware.
2489  *	Currently, this is only used for IBSS mode debugging. Is not a
2490  *	required function.
2491  *	The callback can sleep.
2492  *
2493  * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
2494  *	with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
2495  *	function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
2496  *	TSF synchronization.
2497  *	The callback can sleep.
2498  *
2499  * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
2500  *	This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
2501  *	used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
2502  *	Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon.
2503  *	The callback can sleep.
2504  *
2505  * @ampdu_action: Perform a certain A-MPDU action
2506  * 	The RA/TID combination determines the destination and TID we want
2507  * 	the ampdu action to be performed for. The action is defined through
2508  * 	ieee80211_ampdu_mlme_action. Starting sequence number (@ssn)
2509  * 	is the first frame we expect to perform the action on. Notice
2510  * 	that TX/RX_STOP can pass NULL for this parameter.
2511  *	The @buf_size parameter is only valid when the action is set to
2512  *	%IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL and indicates the peer's reorder
2513  *	buffer size (number of subframes) for this session -- the driver
2514  *	may neither send aggregates containing more subframes than this
2515  *	nor send aggregates in a way that lost frames would exceed the
2516  *	buffer size. If just limiting the aggregate size, this would be
2517  *	possible with a buf_size of 8:
2518  *	 - TX: 1.....7
2519  *	 - RX:  2....7 (lost frame #1)
2520  *	 - TX:        8..1...
2521  *	which is invalid since #1 was now re-transmitted well past the
2522  *	buffer size of 8. Correct ways to retransmit #1 would be:
2523  *	 - TX:       1 or 18 or 81
2524  *	Even "189" would be wrong since 1 could be lost again.
2525  *
2526  *	Returns a negative error code on failure.
2527  *	The callback can sleep.
2528  *
2529  * @get_survey: Return per-channel survey information
2530  *
2531  * @rfkill_poll: Poll rfkill hardware state. If you need this, you also
2532  *	need to set wiphy->rfkill_poll to %true before registration,
2533  *	and need to call wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state() in the callback.
2534  *	The callback can sleep.
2535  *
2536  * @set_coverage_class: Set slot time for given coverage class as specified
2537  *	in IEEE 802.11-2007 section 17.3.8.6 and modify ACK timeout
2538  *	accordingly. This callback is not required and may sleep.
2539  *
2540  * @testmode_cmd: Implement a cfg80211 test mode command. The passed @vif may
2541  *	be %NULL. The callback can sleep.
2542  * @testmode_dump: Implement a cfg80211 test mode dump. The callback can sleep.
2543  *
2544  * @flush: Flush all pending frames from the hardware queue, making sure
2545  *	that the hardware queues are empty. The @queues parameter is a bitmap
2546  *	of queues to flush, which is useful if different virtual interfaces
2547  *	use different hardware queues; it may also indicate all queues.
2548  *	If the parameter @drop is set to %true, pending frames may be dropped.
2549  *	The callback can sleep.
2550  *
2551  * @channel_switch: Drivers that need (or want) to offload the channel
2552  *	switch operation for CSAs received from the AP may implement this
2553  *	callback. They must then call ieee80211_chswitch_done() to indicate
2554  *	completion of the channel switch.
2555  *
2556  * @napi_poll: Poll Rx queue for incoming data frames.
2557  *
2558  * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device.
2559  *	Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may
2560  *	reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL
2561  *	(also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX).
2562  *
2563  * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant).
2564  *
2565  * @remain_on_channel: Starts an off-channel period on the given channel, must
2566  *	call back to ieee80211_ready_on_channel() when on that channel. Note
2567  *	that normal channel traffic is not stopped as this is intended for hw
2568  *	offload. Frames to transmit on the off-channel channel are transmitted
2569  *	normally except for the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN flag. When the
2570  *	duration (which will always be non-zero) expires, the driver must call
2571  *	ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired().
2572  *	Note that this callback may be called while the device is in IDLE and
2573  *	must be accepted in this case.
2574  *	This callback may sleep.
2575  * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Requests that an ongoing off-channel period is
2576  *	aborted before it expires. This callback may sleep.
2577  *
2578  * @set_ringparam: Set tx and rx ring sizes.
2579  *
2580  * @get_ringparam: Get tx and rx ring current and maximum sizes.
2581  *
2582  * @tx_frames_pending: Check if there is any pending frame in the hardware
2583  *	queues before entering power save.
2584  *
2585  * @set_bitrate_mask: Set a mask of rates to be used for rate control selection
2586  *	when transmitting a frame. Currently only legacy rates are handled.
2587  *	The callback can sleep.
2588  * @rssi_callback: Notify driver when the average RSSI goes above/below
2589  *	thresholds that were registered previously. The callback can sleep.
2590  *
2591  * @release_buffered_frames: Release buffered frames according to the given
2592  *	parameters. In the case where the driver buffers some frames for
2593  *	sleeping stations mac80211 will use this callback to tell the driver
2594  *	to release some frames, either for PS-poll or uAPSD.
2595  *	Note that if the @more_data paramter is %false the driver must check
2596  *	if there are more frames on the given TIDs, and if there are more than
2597  *	the frames being released then it must still set the more-data bit in
2598  *	the frame. If the @more_data parameter is %true, then of course the
2599  *	more-data bit must always be set.
2600  *	The @tids parameter tells the driver which TIDs to release frames
2601  *	from, for PS-poll it will always have only a single bit set.
2602  *	In the case this is used for a PS-poll initiated release, the
2603  *	@num_frames parameter will always be 1 so code can be shared. In
2604  *	this case the driver must also set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
2605  *	on the TX status (and must report TX status) so that the PS-poll
2606  *	period is properly ended. This is used to avoid sending multiple
2607  *	responses for a retried PS-poll frame.
2608  *	In the case this is used for uAPSD, the @num_frames parameter may be
2609  *	bigger than one, but the driver may send fewer frames (it must send
2610  *	at least one, however). In this case it is also responsible for
2611  *	setting the EOSP flag in the QoS header of the frames. Also, when the
2612  *	service period ends, the driver must set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP
2613  *	on the last frame in the SP. Alternatively, it may call the function
2614  *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() to inform mac80211 of the end of the SP.
2615  *	This callback must be atomic.
2616  * @allow_buffered_frames: Prepare device to allow the given number of frames
2617  *	to go out to the given station. The frames will be sent by mac80211
2618  *	via the usual TX path after this call. The TX information for frames
2619  *	released will also have the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER flag set
2620  *	and the last one will also have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set. In case
2621  *	frames from multiple TIDs are released and the driver might reorder
2622  *	them between the TIDs, it must set the %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
2623  *	on the last frame and clear it on all others and also handle the EOSP
2624  *	bit in the QoS header correctly. Alternatively, it can also call the
2625  *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() function.
2626  *	The @tids parameter is a bitmap and tells the driver which TIDs the
2627  *	frames will be on; it will at most have two bits set.
2628  *	This callback must be atomic.
2629  *
2630  * @get_et_sset_count:  Ethtool API to get string-set count.
2631  *
2632  * @get_et_stats:  Ethtool API to get a set of u64 stats.
2633  *
2634  * @get_et_strings:  Ethtool API to get a set of strings to describe stats
2635  *	and perhaps other supported types of ethtool data-sets.
2636  *
2637  * @get_rssi: Get current signal strength in dBm, the function is optional
2638  *	and can sleep.
2639  *
2640  * @mgd_prepare_tx: Prepare for transmitting a management frame for association
2641  *	before associated. In multi-channel scenarios, a virtual interface is
2642  *	bound to a channel before it is associated, but as it isn't associated
2643  *	yet it need not necessarily be given airtime, in particular since any
2644  *	transmission to a P2P GO needs to be synchronized against the GO's
2645  *	powersave state. mac80211 will call this function before transmitting a
2646  *	management frame prior to having successfully associated to allow the
2647  *	driver to give it channel time for the transmission, to get a response
2648  *	and to be able to synchronize with the GO.
2649  *	The callback will be called before each transmission and upon return
2650  *	mac80211 will transmit the frame right away.
2651  *	The callback is optional and can (should!) sleep.
2652  *
2653  * @add_chanctx: Notifies device driver about new channel context creation.
2654  * @remove_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context destruction.
2655  * @change_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context changes that
2656  *	may happen when combining different virtual interfaces on the same
2657  *	channel context with different settings
2658  * @assign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being bound
2659  *	to vif. Possible use is for hw queue remapping.
2660  * @unassign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being
2661  *	unbound from vif.
2662  * @start_ap: Start operation on the AP interface, this is called after all the
2663  *	information in bss_conf is set and beacon can be retrieved. A channel
2664  *	context is bound before this is called. Note that if the driver uses
2665  *	software scan or ROC, this (and @stop_ap) isn't called when the AP is
2666  *	just "paused" for scanning/ROC, which is indicated by the beacon being
2667  *	disabled/enabled via @bss_info_changed.
2668  * @stop_ap: Stop operation on the AP interface.
2669  *
2670  * @restart_complete: Called after a call to ieee80211_restart_hw(), when the
2671  *	reconfiguration has completed. This can help the driver implement the
2672  *	reconfiguration step. Also called when reconfiguring because the
2673  *	driver's resume function returned 1, as this is just like an "inline"
2674  *	hardware restart. This callback may sleep.
2675  *
2676  * @ipv6_addr_change: IPv6 address assignment on the given interface changed.
2677  *	Currently, this is only called for managed or P2P client interfaces.
2678  *	This callback is optional; it must not sleep.
2679  *
2680  * @channel_switch_beacon: Starts a channel switch to a new channel.
2681  *	Beacons are modified to include CSA or ECSA IEs before calling this
2682  *	function. The corresponding count fields in these IEs must be
2683  *	decremented, and when they reach zero the driver must call
2684  *	ieee80211_csa_finish(). Drivers which use ieee80211_beacon_get()
2685  *	get the csa counter decremented by mac80211, but must check if it is
2686  *	zero using ieee80211_csa_is_complete() after the beacon has been
2687  *	transmitted and then call ieee80211_csa_finish().
2688  *
2689  * @join_ibss: Join an IBSS (on an IBSS interface); this is called after all
2690  *	information in bss_conf is set up and the beacon can be retrieved. A
2691  *	channel context is bound before this is called.
2692  * @leave_ibss: Leave the IBSS again.
