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

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

57  * DOC: Frame format
58  *

60  * they start with the IEEE 802.11 header and include the same octets that are
61  * sent over the air except for the FCS which should be calculated by the
62  * hardware.
63  *
64  * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features:
65  *
66  * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload
67  * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware.
68  *
69  * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to
70  * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU.

80  *
81  * mac80211 will flushed the workqueue upon interface removal and during
82  * suspend.

88 /**
89  * DOC: mac80211 software tx queueing
90  *
91  * mac80211 provides an optional intermediate queueing implementation designed
92  * to allow the driver to keep hardware queues short and provide some fairness
93  * between different stations/interfaces.
94  * In this model, the driver pulls data frames from the mac80211 queue instead
95  * of letting mac80211 push them via drv_tx().
96  * Other frames (e.g. control or management) are still pushed using drv_tx().
97  *
98  * Drivers indicate that they use this model by implementing the .wake_tx_queue
99  * driver operation.
100  *
101  * Intermediate queues (struct ieee80211_txq) are kept per-sta per-tid, with
102  * another per-sta for non-data/non-mgmt and bufferable management frames, and
103  * a single per-vif queue for multicast data frames.
104  *
105  * The driver is expected to initialize its private per-queue data for stations
106  * and interfaces in the .add_interface and .sta_add ops.
107  *
108  * The driver can't access the queue directly. To dequeue a frame from a
109  * txq, it calls ieee80211_tx_dequeue(). Whenever mac80211 adds a new frame to a
110  * queue, it calls the .wake_tx_queue driver op.
111  *
112  * Drivers can optionally delegate responsibility for scheduling queues to
113  * mac80211, to take advantage of airtime fairness accounting. In this case, to
114  * obtain the next queue to pull frames from, the driver calls
115  * ieee80211_next_txq(). The driver is then expected to return the txq using
116  * ieee80211_return_txq().
117  *
118  * For AP powersave TIM handling, the driver only needs to indicate if it has
119  * buffered packets in the driver specific data structures by calling
120  * ieee80211_sta_set_buffered(). For frames buffered in the ieee80211_txq
121  * struct, mac80211 sets the appropriate TIM PVB bits and calls
122  * .release_buffered_frames().
123  * In that callback the driver is therefore expected to release its own
124  * buffered frames and afterwards also frames from the ieee80211_txq (obtained
125  * via the usual ieee80211_tx_dequeue).

496  *
497  * @bss_color: 6-bit value to mark inter-BSS frame, if BSS supports HE
498  * @htc_trig_based_pkt_ext: default PE in 4us units, if BSS supports HE

500  * @uora_exists: is the UORA element advertised by AP
501  * @ack_enabled: indicates support to receive a multi-TID that solicits either
502  *	ACK, BACK or both
503  * @uora_ocw_range: UORA element's OCW Range field
504  * @frame_time_rts_th: HE duration RTS threshold, in units of 32us
505  * @he_support: does this BSS support HE
506  * @twt_requester: does this BSS support TWT requester (relevant for managed
507  *	mode only, set if the AP advertises TWT responder role)
508  * @twt_responder: does this BSS support TWT requester (relevant for managed
509  *	mode only, set if the AP advertises TWT responder role)
510  * @assoc: association status
511  * @ibss_joined: indicates whether this station is part of an IBSS
512  *	or not
513  * @ibss_creator: indicates if a new IBSS network is being created
514  * @aid: association ID number, valid only when @assoc is true
515  * @use_cts_prot: use CTS protection
516  * @use_short_preamble: use 802.11b short preamble
517  * @use_short_slot: use short slot time (only relevant for ERP)
518  * @dtim_period: num of beacons before the next DTIM, for beaconing,
519  *	valid in station mode only if after the driver was notified
520  *	with the %BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_INFO flag, will be non-zero then.
521  * @sync_tsf: last beacon's/probe response's TSF timestamp (could be old
522  *	as it may have been received during scanning long ago). If the
523  *	HW flag %IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY is set, then this can
524  *	only come from a beacon, but might not become valid until after
525  *	association when a beacon is received (which is notified with the
526  *	%BSS_CHANGED_DTIM flag.). See also sync_dtim_count important notice.
527  * @sync_device_ts: the device timestamp corresponding to the sync_tsf,
528  *	the driver/device can use this to calculate synchronisation
529  *	(see @sync_tsf). See also sync_dtim_count important notice.
530  * @sync_dtim_count: Only valid when %IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY
531  *	is requested, see @sync_tsf/@sync_device_ts.
532  *	IMPORTANT: These three sync_* parameters would possibly be out of sync
533  *	by the time the driver will use them. The synchronized view is currently
534  *	guaranteed only in certain callbacks.
535  * @beacon_int: beacon interval
536  * @assoc_capability: capabilities taken from assoc resp
537  * @basic_rates: bitmap of basic rates, each bit stands for an
538  *	index into the rate table configured by the driver in
539  *	the current band.
540  * @beacon_rate: associated AP's beacon TX rate
541  * @mcast_rate: per-band multicast rate index + 1 (0: disabled)
542  * @bssid: The BSSID for this BSS
543  * @enable_beacon: whether beaconing should be enabled or not
544  * @chandef: Channel definition for this BSS -- the hardware might be
545  *	configured a higher bandwidth than this BSS uses, for example.
546  * @mu_group: VHT MU-MIMO group membership data
547  * @ht_operation_mode: HT operation mode like in &struct ieee80211_ht_operation.
548  *	This field is only valid when the channel is a wide HT/VHT channel.
549  *	Note that with TDLS this can be the case (channel is HT, protection must
550  *	be used from this field) even when the BSS association isn't using HT.
551  * @cqm_rssi_thold: Connection quality monitor RSSI threshold, a zero value
552  *	implies disabled. As with the cfg80211 callback, a change here should
553  *	cause an event to be sent indicating where the current value is in
554  *	relation to the newly configured threshold.
555  * @cqm_rssi_low: Connection quality monitor RSSI lower threshold, a zero value
556  *	implies disabled.  This is an alternative mechanism to the single
557  *	threshold event and can't be enabled simultaneously with it.
558  * @cqm_rssi_high: Connection quality monitor RSSI upper threshold.
559  * @cqm_rssi_hyst: Connection quality monitor RSSI hysteresis
560  * @arp_addr_list: List of IPv4 addresses for hardware ARP filtering. The
561  *	may filter ARP queries targeted for other addresses than listed here.
562  *	The driver must allow ARP queries targeted for all address listed here
563  *	to pass through. An empty list implies no ARP queries need to pass.
564  * @arp_addr_cnt: Number of addresses currently on the list. Note that this
565  *	may be larger than %IEEE80211_BSS_ARP_ADDR_LIST_LEN (the arp_addr_list
566  *	array size), it's up to the driver what to do in that case.
567  * @qos: This is a QoS-enabled BSS.
568  * @idle: This interface is idle. There's also a global idle flag in the
569  *	hardware config which may be more appropriate depending on what
570  *	your driver/device needs to do.
571  * @ps: power-save mode (STA only). This flag is NOT affected by
572  *	offchannel/dynamic_ps operations.
573  * @ssid: The SSID of the current vif. Valid in AP and IBSS mode.
574  * @ssid_len: Length of SSID given in @ssid.
575  * @hidden_ssid: The SSID of the current vif is hidden. Only valid in AP-mode.
576  * @txpower: TX power in dBm
577  * @txpower_type: TX power adjustment used to control per packet Transmit
578  *	Power Control (TPC) in lower driver for the current vif. In particular
579  *	TPC is enabled if value passed in %txpower_type is
580  *	NL80211_TX_POWER_LIMITED (allow using less than specified from
581  *	userspace), whereas TPC is disabled if %txpower_type is set to
582  *	NL80211_TX_POWER_FIXED (use value configured from userspace)
583  * @p2p_noa_attr: P2P NoA attribute for P2P powersave
584  * @allow_p2p_go_ps: indication for AP or P2P GO interface, whether it's allowed
585  *	to use P2P PS mechanism or not. AP/P2P GO is not allowed to use P2P PS
586  *	if it has associated clients without P2P PS support.
587  * @max_idle_period: the time period during which the station can refrain from
588  *	transmitting frames to its associated AP without being disassociated.
589  *	In units of 1000 TUs. Zero value indicates that the AP did not include
590  *	a (valid) BSS Max Idle Period Element.
591  * @protected_keep_alive: if set, indicates that the station should send an RSN
592  *	protected frame to the AP to reset the idle timer at the AP for the
593  *	station.
594  * @ftm_responder: whether to enable or disable fine timing measurement FTM
595  *	responder functionality.
596  * @ftmr_params: configurable lci/civic parameter when enabling FTM responder.
597  * @nontransmitted: this BSS is a nontransmitted BSS profile

601  * @ema_ap: AP supports enhancements of discovery and advertisement of
602  *	nontransmitted BSSIDs
603  * @profile_periodicity: the least number of beacon frames need to be received
604  *	in order to discover all the nontransmitted BSSIDs in the set.
605  * @he_operation: HE operation information of the AP we are connected to
606  * @he_obss_pd: OBSS Packet Detection parameters.

672 /**
673  * enum mac80211_tx_info_flags - flags to describe transmission information/status
674  *
675  * These flags are used with the @flags member of &ieee80211_tx_info.
676  *
677  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS: require TX status callback for this frame.
678  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ: The driver has to assign a sequence
679  *	number to this frame, taking care of not overwriting the fragment
680  *	number and increasing the sequence number only when the
681  *	IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT flag is set. mac80211 will properly
682  *	assign sequence numbers to QoS-data frames but cannot do so correctly
683  *	for non-QoS-data and management frames because beacons need them from
684  *	that counter as well and mac80211 cannot guarantee proper sequencing.
685  *	If this flag is set, the driver should instruct the hardware to
686  *	assign a sequence number to the frame or assign one itself. Cf. IEEE
687  *	802.11-2007 7.1.3.4.1 paragraph 3. This flag will always be set for
688  *	beacons and always be clear for frames without a sequence number field.
689  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK: tell the low level not to wait for an ack
690  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT: clear powersave filter for destination
691  *	station
692  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT: this is a first fragment of the frame
693  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_SEND_AFTER_DTIM: send this frame after DTIM beacon
694  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU: this frame should be sent as part of an A-MPDU
695  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_INJECTED: Frame was injected, internal to mac80211.
696  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED: The frame was not transmitted
697  *	because the destination STA was in powersave mode. Note that to
698  *	avoid race conditions, the filter must be set by the hardware or
699  *	firmware upon receiving a frame that indicates that the station
700  *	went to sleep (must be done on device to filter frames already on
701  *	the queue) and may only be unset after mac80211 gives the OK for
702  *	that by setting the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT (see above),
703  *	since only then is it guaranteed that no more frames are in the
704  *	hardware queue.
705  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK: Frame was acknowledged
706  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU: The frame was aggregated, so status
707  * 	is for the whole aggregation.
708  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU_NO_BACK: no block ack was returned,
709  * 	so consider using block ack request (BAR).
710  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_RATE_CTRL_PROBE: internal to mac80211, can be
711  *	set by rate control algorithms to indicate probe rate, will
712  *	be cleared for fragmented frames (except on the last fragment)
713  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_OFFCHAN_TX_OK: Internal to mac80211. Used to indicate
714  *	that a frame can be transmitted while the queues are stopped for
715  *	off-channel operation.
716  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NEED_TXPROCESSING: completely internal to mac80211,
717  *	used to indicate that a pending frame requires TX processing before
718  *	it can be sent out.
719  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRIED: completely internal to mac80211,
720  *	used to indicate that a frame was already retried due to PS
721  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT: completely internal to mac80211,
722  *	used to indicate frame should not be encrypted
723  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER: This frame is a response to a poll
724  *	frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD) or a non-bufferable MMPDU and must
725  *	be sent although the station is in powersave mode.
726  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES: More frames will be passed to the
727  *	transmit function after the current frame, this can be used
728  *	by drivers to kick the DMA queue only if unset or when the
729  *	queue gets full.
730  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRANSMISSION: This frame is being retransmitted
731  *	after TX status because the destination was asleep, it must not
732  *	be modified again (no seqno assignment, crypto, etc.)
733  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_MLME_CONN_TX: This frame was transmitted by the MLME
734  *	code for connection establishment, this indicates that its status
735  *	should kick the MLME state machine.
736  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NL80211_FRAME_TX: Frame was requested through nl80211
737  *	MLME command (internal to mac80211 to figure out whether to send TX
738  *	status to user space)
739  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_LDPC: tells the driver to use LDPC for this frame
740  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_STBC: Enables Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) for this
741  *	frame and selects the maximum number of streams that it can use.
742  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN: Marks this packet to be transmitted on
743  *	the off-channel channel when a remain-on-channel offload is done
744  *	in hardware -- normal packets still flow and are expected to be
745  *	handled properly by the device.
746  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_TKIP_MIC_FAILURE: Marks this packet to be used for TKIP
747  *	testing. It will be sent out with incorrect Michael MIC key to allow
748  *	TKIP countermeasures to be tested.
749  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_CCK_RATE: This frame will be sent at non CCK rate.
750  *	This flag is actually used for management frame especially for P2P
751  *	frames not being sent at CCK rate in 2GHz band.
752  * @IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP: This packet marks the end of service period,
753  *	when its status is reported the service period ends. For frames in
754  *	an SP that mac80211 transmits, it is already set; for driver frames
755  *	the driver may set this flag. It is also used to do the same for
756  *	PS-Poll responses.
757  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_USE_MINRATE: This frame will be sent at lowest rate.
758  *	This flag is used to send nullfunc frame at minimum rate when
759  *	the nullfunc is used for connection monitoring purpose.
760  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_DONTFRAG: Don't fragment this packet even if it
761  *	would be fragmented by size (this is optional, only used for
762  *	monitor injection).
763  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_NOACK_TRANSMITTED: A frame that was marked with
764  *	IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK has been successfully transmitted without
765  *	any errors (like issues specific to the driver/HW).
766  *	This flag must not be set for frames that don't request no-ack
767  *	behaviour with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK.
768  *
769  * Note: If you have to add new flags to the enumeration, then don't
770  *	 forget to update %IEEE80211_TX_TEMPORARY_FLAGS when necessary.

1151  * @RX_FLAG_MMIC_STRIPPED: the Michael MIC is stripped off this frame,

1153  * @RX_FLAG_IV_STRIPPED: The IV and ICV are stripped from this frame.
1154  *	If this flag is set, the stack cannot do any replay detection
1155  *	hence the driver or hardware will have to do that.
1156  * @RX_FLAG_PN_VALIDATED: Currently only valid for CCMP/GCMP frames, this
1157  *	flag indicates that the PN was verified for replay protection.
1158  *	Note that this flag is also currently only supported when a frame
1159  *	is also decrypted (ie. @RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED must be set)
1160  * @RX_FLAG_DUP_VALIDATED: The driver should set this flag if it did
1161  *	de-duplication by itself.
1162  * @RX_FLAG_FAILED_FCS_CRC: Set this flag if the FCS check failed on
1163  *	the frame.
1164  * @RX_FLAG_FAILED_PLCP_CRC: Set this flag if the PCLP check failed on
1165  *	the frame.
1166  * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_START: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
1167  *	field) is valid and contains the time the first symbol of the MPDU
1168  *	was received. This is useful in monitor mode and for proper IBSS
1169  *	merging.
1170  * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_END: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
1171  *	field) is valid and contains the time the last symbol of the MPDU
1172  *	(including FCS) was received.
1173  * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_PLCP_START: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
1174  *	field) is valid and contains the time the SYNC preamble was received.
1175  * @RX_FLAG_NO_SIGNAL_VAL: The signal strength value is not present.
1176  *	Valid only for data frames (mainly A-MPDU)
1177  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DETAILS: A-MPDU details are known, in particular the reference
1178  *	number (@ampdu_reference) must be populated and be a distinct number for
1179  *	each A-MPDU
1180  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_LAST_KNOWN: last subframe is known, should be set on all
1181  *	subframes of a single A-MPDU
1182  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_IS_LAST: this subframe is the last subframe of the A-MPDU
1183  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DELIM_CRC_ERROR: A delimiter CRC error has been detected
1184  *	on this subframe
1185  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DELIM_CRC_KNOWN: The delimiter CRC field is known (the CRC
1186  *	is stored in the @ampdu_delimiter_crc field)
1187  * @RX_FLAG_MIC_STRIPPED: The mic was stripped of this packet. Decryption was
1188  *	done by the hardware
1189  * @RX_FLAG_ONLY_MONITOR: Report frame only to monitor interfaces without
1190  *	processing it in any regular way.
1191  *	This is useful if drivers offload some frames but still want to report
1192  *	them for sniffing purposes.
1193  * @RX_FLAG_SKIP_MONITOR: Process and report frame to all interfaces except
1194  *	monitor interfaces.
1195  *	This is useful if drivers offload some frames but still want to report
1196  *	them for sniffing purposes.
1197  * @RX_FLAG_AMSDU_MORE: Some drivers may prefer to report separate A-MSDU
1198  *	subframes instead of a one huge frame for performance reasons.
1199  *	All, but the last MSDU from an A-MSDU should have this flag set. E.g.
1200  *	if an A-MSDU has 3 frames, the first 2 must have the flag set, while
1201  *	the 3rd (last) one must not have this flag set. The flag is used to
1202  *	deal with retransmission/duplication recovery properly since A-MSDU
1203  *	subframes share the same sequence number. Reported subframes can be
1204  *	either regular MSDU or singly A-MSDUs. Subframes must not be
1205  *	interleaved with other frames.
1206  * @RX_FLAG_RADIOTAP_VENDOR_DATA: This frame contains vendor-specific
1207  *	radiotap data in the skb->data (before the frame) as described by
1208  *	the &struct ieee80211_vendor_radiotap.
1209  * @RX_FLAG_ALLOW_SAME_PN: Allow the same PN as same packet before.
1210  *	This is used for AMSDU subframes which can have the same PN as
1211  *	the first subframe.
1212  * @RX_FLAG_ICV_STRIPPED: The ICV is stripped from this frame. CRC checking must
1213  *	be done in the hardware.
1214  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_EOF_BIT: Value of the EOF bit in the A-MPDU delimiter for this

1679  *
1680  * @IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_GENERATE_IV: This flag should be set by the

1685  *	the driver for a TKIP key if it requires Michael MIC
1686  *	generation in software.
1687  * @IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_PAIRWISE: Set by mac80211, this flag indicates
1688  *	that the key is pairwise rather then a shared key.
1689  * @IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_SW_MGMT_TX: This flag should be set by the driver for a
1690  *	CCMP/GCMP key if it requires CCMP/GCMP encryption of management frames
1691  *	(MFP) to be done in software.
1692  * @IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_PUT_IV_SPACE: This flag should be set by the driver
1693  *	if space should be prepared for the IV, but the IV
1694  *	itself should not be generated. Do not set together with
1695  *	@IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_GENERATE_IV on the same key. Setting this flag does
1696  *	not necessarily mean that SKBs will have sufficient tailroom for ICV or
1697  *	MIC.

1699  *	management frames. The flag can help drivers that have a hardware
1700  *	crypto implementation that doesn't deal with management frames

2070  *
2071  * These flags are used to indicate hardware capabilities to
2072  * the stack. Generally, flags here should have their meaning
2073  * done in a way that the simplest hardware doesn't need setting
2074  * any particular flags. There are some exceptions to this rule,
2075  * however, so you are advised to review these flags carefully.
2076  *
2077  * @IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL:
2078  *	The hardware or firmware includes rate control, and cannot be
2079  *	controlled by the stack. As such, no rate control algorithm
2080  *	should be instantiated, and the TX rate reported to userspace
2081  *	will be taken from the TX status instead of the rate control
2082  *	algorithm.
2083  *	Note that this requires that the driver implement a number of
2084  *	callbacks so it has the correct information, it needs to have
2085  *	the @set_rts_threshold callback and must look at the BSS config
2086  *	@use_cts_prot for G/N protection, @use_short_slot for slot
2087  *	timing in 2.4 GHz and @use_short_preamble for preambles for
2088  *	CCK frames.
2089  *
2090  * @IEEE80211_HW_RX_INCLUDES_FCS:
2091  *	Indicates that received frames passed to the stack include
2092  *	the FCS at the end.
2093  *
2094  * @IEEE80211_HW_HOST_BROADCAST_PS_BUFFERING:
2095  *	Some wireless LAN chipsets buffer broadcast/multicast frames
2096  *	for power saving stations in the hardware/firmware and others
2097  *	rely on the host system for such buffering. This option is used
2098  *	to configure the IEEE 802.11 upper layer to buffer broadcast and
2099  *	multicast frames when there are power saving stations so that
2100  *	the driver can fetch them with ieee80211_get_buffered_bc().
2101  *
2102  * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC:
2103  *	Hardware can provide signal values but we don't know its units. We
2104  *	expect values between 0 and @max_signal.
2105  *	If possible please provide dB or dBm instead.
2106  *
2107  * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM:
2108  *	Hardware gives signal values in dBm, decibel difference from
2109  *	one milliwatt. This is the preferred method since it is standardized
2110  *	between different devices. @max_signal does not need to be set.
2111  *
2112  * @IEEE80211_HW_SPECTRUM_MGMT:
2113  * 	Hardware supports spectrum management defined in 802.11h
2114  * 	Measurement, Channel Switch, Quieting, TPC
2115  *
2116  * @IEEE80211_HW_AMPDU_AGGREGATION:
2117  *	Hardware supports 11n A-MPDU aggregation.
2118  *
2119  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS:
2120  *	Hardware has power save support (i.e. can go to sleep).
2121  *
2122  * @IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK:
2123  *	Hardware requires nullfunc frame handling in stack, implies
2124  *	stack support for dynamic PS.
2125  *
2126  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS:
2127  *	Hardware has support for dynamic PS.
2128  *
2129  * @IEEE80211_HW_MFP_CAPABLE:
2130  *	Hardware supports management frame protection (MFP, IEEE 802.11w).
2131  *
2132  * @IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS:
2133  *	Hardware can provide ack status reports of Tx frames to
2134  *	the stack.
2135  *
2136  * @IEEE80211_HW_CONNECTION_MONITOR:
2137  *	The hardware performs its own connection monitoring, including
2138  *	periodic keep-alives to the AP and probing the AP on beacon loss.
2139  *
2140  * @IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_BEFORE_ASSOC:
2141  *	This device needs to get data from beacon before association (i.e.
2142  *	dtim_period).
2143  *
2144  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PER_STA_GTK: The device's crypto engine supports
2145  *	per-station GTKs as used by IBSS RSN or during fast transition. If
2146  *	the device doesn't support per-station GTKs, but can be asked not
2147  *	to decrypt group addressed frames, then IBSS RSN support is still
2148  *	possible but software crypto will be used. Advertise the wiphy flag
2149  *	only in that case.
2150  *
2151  * @IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS: When operating in AP mode the device
2152  *	autonomously manages the PS status of connected stations. When
2153  *	this flag is set mac80211 will not trigger PS mode for connected
2154  *	stations based on the PM bit of incoming frames.
2155  *	Use ieee80211_start_ps()/ieee8021_end_ps() to manually configure
2156  *	the PS mode of connected stations.
2157  *
2158  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_AMPDU_SETUP_IN_HW: The device handles TX A-MPDU session
2159  *	setup strictly in HW. mac80211 should not attempt to do this in
2160  *	software.
2161  *
2162  * @IEEE80211_HW_WANT_MONITOR_VIF: The driver would like to be informed of
2163  *	a virtual monitor interface when monitor interfaces are the only
2164  *	active interfaces.
2165  *
2166  * @IEEE80211_HW_NO_AUTO_VIF: The driver would like for no wlanX to
2167  *	be created.  It is expected user-space will create vifs as
2168  *	desired (and thus have them named as desired).
2169  *
2170  * @IEEE80211_HW_SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL: The driver wants to control which of the
2171  *	crypto algorithms can be done in software - so don't automatically
2172  *	try to fall back to it if hardware crypto fails, but do so only if
2173  *	the driver returns 1. This also forces the driver to advertise its
2174  *	supported cipher suites.
2175  *
2176  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORT_FAST_XMIT: The driver/hardware supports fast-xmit,
2177  *	this currently requires only the ability to calculate the duration
2178  *	for frames.
2179  *
2180  * @IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL: The driver wants to control per-interface
2181  *	queue mapping in order to use different queues (not just one per AC)
2182  *	for different virtual interfaces. See the doc section on HW queue
2183  *	control for more details.
2184  *
2185  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_RC_TABLE: The driver supports using a rate
2186  *	selection table provided by the rate control algorithm.
2187  *
2188  * @IEEE80211_HW_P2P_DEV_ADDR_FOR_INTF: Use the P2P Device address for any
2189  *	P2P Interface. This will be honoured even if more than one interface
2190  *	is supported.
2191  *
2192  * @IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY: Use sync timing from beacon frames
2193  *	only, to allow getting TBTT of a DTIM beacon.
2194  *
2195  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_HT_CCK_RATES: Hardware supports mixing HT/CCK rates
2196  *	and can cope with CCK rates in an aggregation session (e.g. by not
2197  *	using aggregation for such frames.)
2198  *
2199  * @IEEE80211_HW_CHANCTX_STA_CSA: Support 802.11h based channel-switch (CSA)
2200  *	for a single active channel while using channel contexts. When support
2201  *	is not enabled the default action is to disconnect when getting the
2202  *	CSA frame.
2203  *
2204  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_CLONED_SKBS: The driver will never modify the payload
2205  *	or tailroom of TX skbs without copying them first.
2206  *
2207  * @IEEE80211_HW_SINGLE_SCAN_ON_ALL_BANDS: The HW supports scanning on all bands
2208  *	in one command, mac80211 doesn't have to run separate scans per band.
2209  *
2210  * @IEEE80211_HW_TDLS_WIDER_BW: The device/driver supports wider bandwidth
2211  *	than then BSS bandwidth for a TDLS link on the base channel.
2212  *
2213  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_AMSDU_IN_AMPDU: The driver supports receiving A-MSDUs
2214  *	within A-MPDU.
2215  *
2216  * @IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_TX_STATUS: The device/driver provides TX status
2217  *	for sent beacons.
2218  *
2219  * @IEEE80211_HW_NEEDS_UNIQUE_STA_ADDR: Hardware (or driver) requires that each
2220  *	station has a unique address, i.e. each station entry can be identified
2221  *	by just its MAC address; this prevents, for example, the same station
2222  *	from connecting to two virtual AP interfaces at the same time.
2223  *
2224  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_REORDERING_BUFFER: Hardware (or driver) manages the
2225  *	reordering buffer internally, guaranteeing mac80211 receives frames in
2226  *	order and does not need to manage its own reorder buffer or BA session
2227  *	timeout.
2228  *
2229  * @IEEE80211_HW_USES_RSS: The device uses RSS and thus requires parallel RX,
2230  *	which implies using per-CPU station statistics.
2231  *
2232  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_AMSDU: Hardware (or driver) supports software aggregated
2233  *	A-MSDU frames. Requires software tx queueing and fast-xmit support.
2234  *	When not using minstrel/minstrel_ht rate control, the driver must
2235  *	limit the maximum A-MSDU size based on the current tx rate by setting
2236  *	max_rc_amsdu_len in struct ieee80211_sta.
2237  *
2238  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_FRAG_LIST: Hardware (or driver) supports sending frag_list
2239  *	skbs, needed for zero-copy software A-MSDU.
2240  *
2241  * @IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_LOW_ACK: The driver (or firmware) reports low ack event
2242  *	by ieee80211_report_low_ack() based on its own algorithm. For such
2243  *	drivers, mac80211 packet loss mechanism will not be triggered and driver
2244  *	is completely depending on firmware event for station kickout.
2245  *
2246  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_TX_FRAG: Hardware does fragmentation by itself.
2247  *	The stack will not do fragmentation.
2248  *	The callback for @set_frag_threshold should be set as well.
2249  *
2250  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_TDLS_BUFFER_STA: Hardware supports buffer STA on
2251  *	TDLS links.
2252  *
2253  * @IEEE80211_HW_DEAUTH_NEED_MGD_TX_PREP: The driver requires the
2254  *	mgd_prepare_tx() callback to be called before transmission of a
2255  *	deauthentication frame in case the association was completed but no
2256  *	beacon was heard. This is required in multi-channel scenarios, where the
2257  *	virtual interface might not be given air time for the transmission of
2258  *	the frame, as it is not synced with the AP/P2P GO yet, and thus the
2259  *	deauthentication frame might not be transmitted.
2260  *
2261  * @IEEE80211_HW_DOESNT_SUPPORT_QOS_NDP: The driver (or firmware) doesn't
2262  *	support QoS NDP for AP probing - that's most likely a driver bug.
2263  *
2264  * @IEEE80211_HW_BUFF_MMPDU_TXQ: use the TXQ for bufferable MMPDUs, this of
2265  *	course requires the driver to use TXQs to start with.
2266  *
2267  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_VHT_EXT_NSS_BW: (Hardware) rate control supports VHT
2268  *	extended NSS BW (dot11VHTExtendedNSSBWCapable). This flag will be set if
2269  *	the selected rate control algorithm sets %RATE_CTRL_CAPA_VHT_EXT_NSS_BW
2270  *	but if the rate control is built-in then it must be set by the driver.
2271  *	See also the documentation for that flag.
2272  *
2273  * @IEEE80211_HW_STA_MMPDU_TXQ: use the extra non-TID per-station TXQ for all
2274  *	MMPDUs on station interfaces. This of course requires the driver to use
2275  *	TXQs to start with.
2276  *
2277  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_STATUS_NO_AMPDU_LEN: Driver does not report accurate A-MPDU
2278  *	length in tx status information
2279  *
2280  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_MULTI_BSSID: Hardware supports multi BSSID
2281  *
2282  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_ONLY_HE_MULTI_BSSID: Hardware supports multi BSSID
2283  *	only for HE APs. Applies if @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_MULTI_BSSID is set.
2284  *
2285  * @IEEE80211_HW_AMPDU_KEYBORDER_SUPPORT: The card and driver is only
2286  *	aggregating MPDUs with the same keyid, allowing mac80211 to keep Tx
2287  *	A-MPDU sessions active while rekeying with Extended Key ID.
2288  *

2641  *
2642  * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
2643  * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
2644  * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
2645  * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
2646  * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
2647  * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
2648  * VLANs are configured for an access point.
2649  *
2650  * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
2651  * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
2652  * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
2653  *
2654  * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
2655  * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
2656  * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
2657  * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
2658  *
2659  * Note that in the case that the @IEEE80211_HW_SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL flag is
2660  * set, mac80211 will not automatically fall back to software crypto if
2661  * enabling hardware crypto failed. The set_key() call may also return the
2662  * value 1 to permit this specific key/algorithm to be done in software.
2663  *
2664  * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
2665  *
2666  * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
2667  * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
2668  * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
2669  * based on the receive flags.
2670  *
2671  * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
2672  * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
2673  * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
2674  * keys.
2675  *
2676  * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
2677  * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
2678  * handler.
2679  * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
2680  * This happens every time the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
2681  * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
2682  * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
2683  * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
2684  * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.
2685  *
2686  * The set_default_unicast_key() call updates the default WEP key index
2687  * configured to the hardware for WEP encryption type. This is required
2688  * for devices that support offload of data packets (e.g. ARP responses).
2689  *
2690  * Mac80211 drivers should set the @NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CAN_REPLACE_PTK0 flag
2691  * when they are able to replace in-use PTK keys according to to following
2692  * requirements:
2693  * 1) They do not hand over frames decrypted with the old key to
2694       mac80211 once the call to set_key() with command %DISABLE_KEY has been
2695       completed when also setting @IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_GENERATE_IV for any key,
2696    2) either drop or continue to use the old key for any outgoing frames queued
2697       at the time of the key deletion (including re-transmits),
2698    3) never send out a frame queued prior to the set_key() %SET_KEY command
2699       encrypted with the new key and

2704 /**
2705  * DOC: Powersave support
2706  *
2707  * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
2708  *
2709  * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
2710  * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
2711  * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
2712  * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
2713  * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
2714  * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
2715  * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
2716  * it finds traffic directed to it.
2717  *
2718  * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
2719  * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
2720  * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
2721  * up the hardware before issuing commands to the hardware and putting it
2722  * back to sleep at appropriate times.
2723  *
2724  * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
2725  * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
2726  * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
2727  *
2728  * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
2729  * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
2730  * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
2731  * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
2732  * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
2733  * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
2734  * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
2735  *
2736  * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
2737  * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
2738  * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
2739  * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
2740  * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
2741  * periods.
2742  *
2743  * Dynamic powersave is simply supported by mac80211 enabling and disabling
2744  * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
2745  * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
2746  * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
2747  * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
2748  * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
2749  * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
2750  * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
2751  * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
2752  * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
2753  *
2754  * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
2755  * %IEEE80211_VIF_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
2756  * uapsd parameter in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
2757  * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
2758  * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
2759  * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.
2760  *
2761  * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with
2762  * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK.

2764 
2765 /**
2766  * DOC: Beacon filter support
2767  *
2768  * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
2769  * which will reduce system power consumption. It usually works so that
2770  * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
2771  * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
2772  * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
2773  * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
2774  * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
2775  *
2776  * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER
2777  * interface capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
2778  * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
2779  * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
2780  * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
2781  *
2782  * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
2783  * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
2784  * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
2785  * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
2786  *
2787  * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
2788  * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
2789  * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
2790  * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
2791  *
2792  *  - a list of information element IDs
2793  *  - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
2794  *
2795  * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
2796  * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
2797  * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
2798  * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
2799  * vendor information elements.
2800  *
2801  * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
2802  * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
2803  *
2804  * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
2805  * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
2806  * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
2807  * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
2808  * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
2809  * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
2810  *
2811  *
2812  * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
2813  * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
2814  * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
2815  * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
2816  * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
2817  * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
2818  * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
2819  * them as the roaming algorithm requires.

2827  * DOC: Spatial multiplexing power save
2828  *
2829  * SMPS (Spatial multiplexing power save) is a mechanism to conserve
2830  * power in an 802.11n implementation. For details on the mechanism
2831  * and rationale, please refer to 802.11 (as amended by 802.11n-2009)
2832  * "11.2.3 SM power save".
2833  *
2834  * The mac80211 implementation is capable of sending action frames
2835  * to update the AP about the station's SMPS mode, and will instruct
2836  * the driver to enter the specific mode. It will also announce the
2837  * requested SMPS mode during the association handshake. Hardware
2838  * support for this feature is required, and can be indicated by
2839  * hardware flags.
2840  *
2841  * The default mode will be "automatic", which nl80211/cfg80211
2842  * defines to be dynamic SMPS in (regular) powersave, and SMPS
2843  * turned off otherwise.
2844  *
2845  * To support this feature, the driver must set the appropriate
2846  * hardware support flags, and handle the SMPS flag to the config()
2847  * operation. It will then with this mechanism be instructed to
2848  * enter the requested SMPS mode while associated to an HT AP.

2851 /**
2852  * DOC: Frame filtering
2853  *
2854  * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
2855  * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
2856  * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
2857  * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
2858  * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
2859  *
2860  * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
2861  * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
2862  * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
2863  *
2864  * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
2865  * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
2866  * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
2867  * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
2868  * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
2869  * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
2870  * @total_flags with the new flag states.
2871  *
2872  * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
2873  * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
2874  * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
2875  * or dropped.
2876  *
2877  * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
2878  * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
2879  * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
2880  * the flag, but not clear it.
2881  * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
2882  * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
2883  * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
2884  * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
2885  * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
2886  * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
2887  * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
2888  * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.

2891 /**
2892  * DOC: AP support for powersaving clients
2893  *
2894  * In order to implement AP and P2P GO modes, mac80211 has support for
2895  * client powersaving, both "legacy" PS (PS-Poll/null data) and uAPSD.
2896  * There currently is no support for sAPSD.
2897  *
2898  * There is one assumption that mac80211 makes, namely that a client
2899  * will not poll with PS-Poll and trigger with uAPSD at the same time.
2900  * Both are supported, and both can be used by the same client, but
2901  * they can't be used concurrently by the same client. This simplifies
2902  * the driver code.
2903  *
2904  * The first thing to keep in mind is that there is a flag for complete
2905  * driver implementation: %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS. If this flag is set,
2906  * mac80211 expects the driver to handle most of the state machine for
2907  * powersaving clients and will ignore the PM bit in incoming frames.
2908  * Drivers then use ieee80211_sta_ps_transition() to inform mac80211 of
2909  * stations' powersave transitions. In this mode, mac80211 also doesn't
2910  * handle PS-Poll/uAPSD.
2911  *
2912  * In the mode without %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS, mac80211 will check the
2913  * PM bit in incoming frames for client powersave transitions. When a
2914  * station goes to sleep, we will stop transmitting to it. There is,
2915  * however, a race condition: a station might go to sleep while there is
2916  * data buffered on hardware queues. If the device has support for this
2917  * it will reject frames, and the driver should give the frames back to
2918  * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED flag set which will
2919  * cause mac80211 to retry the frame when the station wakes up. The
2920  * driver is also notified of powersave transitions by calling its
2921  * @sta_notify callback.
2922  *
2923  * When the station is asleep, it has three choices: it can wake up,
2924  * it can PS-Poll, or it can possibly start a uAPSD service period.
2925  * Waking up is implemented by simply transmitting all buffered (and
2926  * filtered) frames to the station. This is the easiest case. When
2927  * the station sends a PS-Poll or a uAPSD trigger frame, mac80211
2928  * will inform the driver of this with the @allow_buffered_frames
2929  * callback; this callback is optional. mac80211 will then transmit
2930  * the frames as usual and set the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER
2931  * on each frame. The last frame in the service period (or the only
2932  * response to a PS-Poll) also has %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set to
2933  * indicate that it ends the service period; as this frame must have
2934  * TX status report it also sets %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS.
2935  * When TX status is reported for this frame, the service period is
2936  * marked has having ended and a new one can be started by the peer.
2937  *
2938  * Additionally, non-bufferable MMPDUs can also be transmitted by
2939  * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER set in them.
2940  *
2941  * Another race condition can happen on some devices like iwlwifi
2942  * when there are frames queued for the station and it wakes up
2943  * or polls; the frames that are already queued could end up being
2944  * transmitted first instead, causing reordering and/or wrong
2945  * processing of the EOSP. The cause is that allowing frames to be
2946  * transmitted to a certain station is out-of-band communication to
2947  * the device. To allow this problem to be solved, the driver can
2948  * call ieee80211_sta_block_awake() if frames are buffered when it
2949  * is notified that the station went to sleep. When all these frames
2950  * have been filtered (see above), it must call the function again
2951  * to indicate that the station is no longer blocked.
2952  *
2953  * If the driver buffers frames in the driver for aggregation in any
2954  * way, it must use the ieee80211_sta_set_buffered() call when it is
2955  * notified of the station going to sleep to inform mac80211 of any
2956  * TIDs that have frames buffered. Note that when a station wakes up
2957  * this information is reset (hence the requirement to call it when
2958  * informed of the station going to sleep). Then, when a service
2959  * period starts for any reason, @release_buffered_frames is called
2960  * with the number of frames to be released and which TIDs they are
2961  * to come from. In this case, the driver is responsible for setting
2962  * the EOSP (for uAPSD) and MORE_DATA bits in the released frames,
2963  * to help the @more_data parameter is passed to tell the driver if
2964  * there is more data on other TIDs -- the TIDs to release frames
2965  * from are ignored since mac80211 doesn't know how many frames the
2966  * buffers for those TIDs contain.
2967  *
2968  * If the driver also implement GO mode, where absence periods may
2969  * shorten service periods (or abort PS-Poll responses), it must
2970  * filter those response frames except in the case of frames that
2971  * are buffered in the driver -- those must remain buffered to avoid
2972  * reordering. Because it is possible that no frames are released
2973  * in this case, the driver must call ieee80211_sta_eosp()
2974  * to indicate to mac80211 that the service period ended anyway.
2975  *
2976  * Finally, if frames from multiple TIDs are released from mac80211
2977  * but the driver might reorder them, it must clear & set the flags
2978  * appropriately (only the last frame may have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP)
2979  * and also take care of the EOSP and MORE_DATA bits in the frame.
2980  * The driver may also use ieee80211_sta_eosp() in this case.
2981  *
2982  * Note that if the driver ever buffers frames other than QoS-data
2983  * frames, it must take care to never send a non-QoS-data frame as
2984  * the last frame in a service period, adding a QoS-nulldata frame
2985  * after a non-QoS-data frame if needed.

2987 
2988 /**
2989  * DOC: HW queue control
2990  *
2991  * Before HW queue control was introduced, mac80211 only had a single static
2992  * assignment of per-interface AC software queues to hardware queues. This
2993  * was problematic for a few reasons:
2994  * 1) off-channel transmissions might get stuck behind other frames
2995  * 2) multiple virtual interfaces couldn't be handled correctly
2996  * 3) after-DTIM frames could get stuck behind other frames
2997  *
2998  * To solve this, hardware typically uses multiple different queues for all
2999  * the different usages, and this needs to be propagated into mac80211 so it
3000  * won't have the same problem with the software queues.
3001  *
3002  * Therefore, mac80211 now offers the %IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL capability
3003  * flag that tells it that the driver implements its own queue control. To do
3004  * so, the driver will set up the various queues in each &struct ieee80211_vif
3005  * and the offchannel queue in &struct ieee80211_hw. In response, mac80211 will
3006  * use those queue IDs in the hw_queue field of &struct ieee80211_tx_info and
3007  * if necessary will queue the frame on the right software queue that mirrors
3008  * the hardware queue.
3009  * Additionally, the driver has to then use these HW queue IDs for the queue
3010  * management functions (ieee80211_stop_queue() et al.)
3011  *
3012  * The driver is free to set up the queue mappings as needed, multiple virtual
3013  * interfaces may map to the same hardware queues if needed. The setup has to
3014  * happen during add_interface or change_interface callbacks. For example, a
3015  * driver supporting station+station and station+AP modes might decide to have
3016  * 10 hardware queues to handle different scenarios:
3017  *
3018  * 4 AC HW queues for 1st vif: 0, 1, 2, 3
3019  * 4 AC HW queues for 2nd vif: 4, 5, 6, 7
3020  * after-DTIM queue for AP:   8
3021  * off-channel queue:         9
3022  *
3023  * It would then set up the hardware like this:
3024  *   hw.offchannel_tx_hw_queue = 9
3025  *
3026  * and the first virtual interface that is added as follows:
3027  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VO] = 0
3028  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VI] = 1
3029  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BE] = 2
3030  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BK] = 3
3031  *   vif.cab_queue = 8 // if AP mode, otherwise %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
3032  * and the second virtual interface with 4-7.
3033  *
3034  * If queue 6 gets full, for example, mac80211 would only stop the second
3035  * virtual interface's BE queue since virtual interface queues are per AC.
3036  *
3037  * Note that the vif.cab_queue value should be set to %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
3038  * whenever the queue is not used (i.e. the interface is not in AP mode) if the
3039  * queue could potentially be shared since mac80211 will look at cab_queue when
3040  * a queue is stopped/woken even if the interface is not in AP mode.

3221 /**
3222  * struct ieee80211_ops - callbacks from mac80211 to the driver
3223  *
3224  * This structure contains various callbacks that the driver may
3225  * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
3226  * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
3227  *
3228  * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
3229  *	skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
3230  *	The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
3231  *	configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
3232  *	preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately.
3233  *	Must be atomic.
3234  *
3235  * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
3236  *	is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
3237  *	frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
3238  *	Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
3239  *	or zero.
3240  *	When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
3241  *	to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
3242  *	is added.
3243  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
3244  *
3245  * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
3246  *	is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
3247  *	it must turn off frame reception.)
3248  *	May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
3249  *	an interface. If you added any work onto the mac80211 workqueue
3250  *	you should ensure to cancel it on this callback.
3251  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
3252  *
3253  * @suspend: Suspend the device; mac80211 itself will quiesce before and
3254  *	stop transmitting and doing any other configuration, and then
3255  *	ask the device to suspend. This is only invoked when WoWLAN is
3256  *	configured, otherwise the device is deconfigured completely and
3257  *	reconfigured at resume time.
3258  *	The driver may also impose special conditions under which it
3259  *	wants to use the "normal" suspend (deconfigure), say if it only
3260  *	supports WoWLAN when the device is associated. In this case, it
3261  *	must return 1 from this function.
3262  *
3263  * @resume: If WoWLAN was configured, this indicates that mac80211 is
3264  *	now resuming its operation, after this the device must be fully
3265  *	functional again. If this returns an error, the only way out is
3266  *	to also unregister the device. If it returns 1, then mac80211
3267  *	will also go through the regular complete restart on resume.
3268  *
3269  * @set_wakeup: Enable or disable wakeup when WoWLAN configuration is
3270  *	modified. The reason is that device_set_wakeup_enable() is
3271  *	supposed to be called when the configuration changes, not only
3272  *	in suspend().
3273  *
3274  * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
3275  *	enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
3276  *	and @stop must be implemented.
3277  *	The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
3278  *	the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
3279  *	interface is given in the conf parameter.
3280  *	The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
3281  *	negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
3282  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
3283  *
3284  * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback
3285  *	is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be
3286  *	switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep.
3287  *	Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be
3288  *	found by the interface iteration callbacks.
3289  *
3290  * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
3291  *	The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
3292  *	and no monitor interfaces are present.
3293  *	When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
3294  *	must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
3295  *	the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
3296  *	MAC address of the device going away.
3297  *	Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.
3298  *
3299  * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
3300  *	function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
3301  *	This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
3302  *	if it does. The callback can sleep.
3303  *
3304  * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
3305  *	parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
3306  *	level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
3307  *	This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
3308  *	for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
3309  *	of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback
3310  *	can sleep.
3311  *
3312  * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration.
3313  *	This callback is optional, and its return value is passed
3314  *	to configure_filter(). This callback must be atomic.
3315  *
3316  * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
3317  *	See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
3318  *	This callback must be implemented and can sleep.
3319  *
3320  * @config_iface_filter: Configure the interface's RX filter.
3321  *	This callback is optional and is used to configure which frames
3322  *	should be passed to mac80211. The filter_flags is the combination
3323  *	of FIF_* flags. The changed_flags is a bit mask that indicates
3324  *	which flags are changed.
3325  *	This callback can sleep.
3326  *
3327  * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
3328  * 	must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
3329  *
3330  * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
3331  *	This callback is only called between add_interface and
3332  *	remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
3333  *	is enabled.
3334  *	Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
3335  *	The callback can sleep.
3336  *
3337  * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
3338  * 	This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
3339  * 	which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
3340  *	The callback must be atomic.
3341  *
3342  * @set_rekey_data: If the device supports GTK rekeying, for example while the
3343  *	host is suspended, it can assign this callback to retrieve the data
3344  *	necessary to do GTK rekeying, this is the KEK, KCK and replay counter.
3345  *	After rekeying was done it should (for example during resume) notify
3346  *	userspace of the new replay counter using ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify().
3347  *
3348  * @set_default_unicast_key: Set the default (unicast) key index, useful for
3349  *	WEP when the device sends data packets autonomously, e.g. for ARP
3350  *	offloading. The index can be 0-3, or -1 for unsetting it.
3351  *
3352  * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
3353  *	the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
3354  *	configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
3355  *	registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
3356  *	that power save is disabled.
3357  *	The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
3358  *	entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
3359  *	at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
3360  *	(extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
3361  *	When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
3362  *	note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
3363  *	any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
3364  *	This callback is also allowed to return the special return value 1,
3365  *	this indicates that hardware scan isn't desirable right now and a
3366  *	software scan should be done instead. A driver wishing to use this
3367  *	capability must ensure its (hardware) scan capabilities aren't
3368  *	advertised as more capable than mac80211's software scan is.
3369  *	The callback can sleep.
3370  *
3371  * @cancel_hw_scan: Ask the low-level tp cancel the active hw scan.
3372  *	The driver should ask the hardware to cancel the scan (if possible),
3373  *	but the scan will be completed only after the driver will call
3374  *	ieee80211_scan_completed().
3375  *	This callback is needed for wowlan, to prevent enqueueing a new
3376  *	scan_work after the low-level driver was already suspended.
3377  *	The callback can sleep.
3378  *
3379  * @sched_scan_start: Ask the hardware to start scanning repeatedly at
3380  *	specific intervals.  The driver must call the
3381  *	ieee80211_sched_scan_results() function whenever it finds results.
3382  *	This process will continue until sched_scan_stop is called.
3383  *
3384  * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the hardware to stop an ongoing scheduled scan.
3385  *	In this case, ieee80211_sched_scan_stopped() must not be called.
3386  *
3387  * @sw_scan_start: Notifier function that is called just before a software scan
3388  *	is started. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
3389  *	The mac_addr parameter allows supporting NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_RANDOM_ADDR,
3390  *	the driver may set the NL80211_FEATURE_SCAN_RANDOM_MAC_ADDR flag if it
3391  *	can use this parameter. The callback can sleep.
3392  *
3393  * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a
3394  *	software scan finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need
3395  *	this notification.
3396  *	The callback can sleep.
3397  *
3398  * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
3399  * 	Returns zero if statistics are available.
3400  *	The callback can sleep.
3401  *
3402  * @get_key_seq: If your device implements encryption in hardware and does
3403  *	IV/PN assignment then this callback should be provided to read the
3404  *	IV/PN for the given key from hardware.
3405  *	The callback must be atomic.
3406  *
3407  * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this
3408  *	if the device does fragmentation by itself. Note that to prevent the
3409  *	stack from doing fragmentation IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_TX_FRAG
3410  *	should be set as well.
3411  *	The callback can sleep.
3412  *
3413  * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
3414  *	The callback can sleep.
3415  *
3416  * @sta_add: Notifies low level driver about addition of an associated station,
3417  *	AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
3418  *
3419  * @sta_remove: Notifies low level driver about removal of an associated
3420  *	station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. Note that after the callback
3421  *	returns it isn't safe to use the pointer, not even RCU protected;
3422  *	no RCU grace period is guaranteed between returning here and freeing
3423  *	the station. See @sta_pre_rcu_remove if needed.
3424  *	This callback can sleep.
3425  *
3426  * @sta_add_debugfs: Drivers can use this callback to add debugfs files
3427  *	when a station is added to mac80211's station list. This callback
3428  *	should be within a CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS conditional. This
3429  *	callback can sleep.
3430  *
3431  * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about power state transition of an
3432  *	associated station, AP,  IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. For a VIF operating
3433  *	in AP mode, this callback will not be called when the flag
3434  *	%IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS is set. Must be atomic.
3435  *
3436  * @sta_state: Notifies low level driver about state transition of a
3437  *	station (which can be the AP, a client, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc.)
3438  *	This callback is mutually exclusive with @sta_add/@sta_remove.
3439  *	It must not fail for down transitions but may fail for transitions
3440  *	up the list of states. Also note that after the callback returns it
3441  *	isn't safe to use the pointer, not even RCU protected - no RCU grace
3442  *	period is guaranteed between returning here and freeing the station.
3443  *	See @sta_pre_rcu_remove if needed.
3444  *	The callback can sleep.
3445  *
3446  * @sta_pre_rcu_remove: Notify driver about station removal before RCU
3447  *	synchronisation. This is useful if a driver needs to have station
3448  *	pointers protected using RCU, it can then use this call to clear
3449  *	the pointers instead of waiting for an RCU grace period to elapse
3450  *	in @sta_state.
3451  *	The callback can sleep.
3452  *
3453  * @sta_rc_update: Notifies the driver of changes to the bitrates that can be
3454  *	used to transmit to the station. The changes are advertised with bits
3455  *	from &enum ieee80211_rate_control_changed and the values are reflected
3456  *	in the station data. This callback should only be used when the driver
3457  *	uses hardware rate control (%IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL) since
3458  *	otherwise the rate control algorithm is notified directly.
3459  *	Must be atomic.
3460  * @sta_rate_tbl_update: Notifies the driver that the rate table changed. This
3461  *	is only used if the configured rate control algorithm actually uses
3462  *	the new rate table API, and is therefore optional. Must be atomic.
3463  *
3464  * @sta_statistics: Get statistics for this station. For example with beacon
3465  *	filtering, the statistics kept by mac80211 might not be accurate, so
3466  *	let the driver pre-fill the statistics. The driver can fill most of
3467  *	the values (indicating which by setting the filled bitmap), but not
3468  *	all of them make sense - see the source for which ones are possible.
3469  *	Statistics that the driver doesn't fill will be filled by mac80211.
3470  *	The callback can sleep.
3471  *
3472  * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
3473  *	bursting) for a hardware TX queue.
3474  *	Returns a negative error code on failure.
3475  *	The callback can sleep.
3476  *
3477  * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
3478  *	this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a
3479  *	required function.
3480  *	The callback can sleep.
3481  *
3482  * @set_tsf: Set the TSF timer to the specified value in the firmware/hardware.
3483  *	Currently, this is only used for IBSS mode debugging. Is not a
3484  *	required function.
3485  *	The callback can sleep.
3486  *
3487  * @offset_tsf: Offset the TSF timer by the specified value in the
3488  *	firmware/hardware.  Preferred to set_tsf as it avoids delay between
3489  *	calling set_tsf() and hardware getting programmed, which will show up
3490  *	as TSF delay. Is not a required function.
3491  *	The callback can sleep.
3492  *
3493  * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
3494  *	with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
3495  *	function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
3496  *	TSF synchronization.
3497  *	The callback can sleep.
3498  *
3499  * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
3500  *	This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
3501  *	used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
3502  *	Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon.
3503  *	The callback can sleep.
3504  *
3505  * @get_survey: Return per-channel survey information
3506  *
3507  * @rfkill_poll: Poll rfkill hardware state. If you need this, you also
3508  *	need to set wiphy->rfkill_poll to %true before registration,
3509  *	and need to call wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state() in the callback.
3510  *	The callback can sleep.
3511  *
3512  * @set_coverage_class: Set slot time for given coverage class as specified
3513  *	in IEEE 802.11-2007 section 17.3.8.6 and modify ACK timeout
3514  *	accordingly; coverage class equals to -1 to enable ACK timeout
3515  *	estimation algorithm (dynack). To disable dynack set valid value for
3516  *	coverage class. This callback is not required and may sleep.
3517  *
3518  * @testmode_cmd: Implement a cfg80211 test mode command. The passed @vif may
3519  *	be %NULL. The callback can sleep.
3520  * @testmode_dump: Implement a cfg80211 test mode dump. The callback can sleep.
3521  *
3522  * @flush: Flush all pending frames from the hardware queue, making sure
3523  *	that the hardware queues are empty. The @queues parameter is a bitmap
3524  *	of queues to flush, which is useful if different virtual interfaces
3525  *	use different hardware queues; it may also indicate all queues.
3526  *	If the parameter @drop is set to %true, pending frames may be dropped.
3527  *	Note that vif can be NULL.
3528  *	The callback can sleep.
3529  *
3530  * @channel_switch: Drivers that need (or want) to offload the channel
3531  *	switch operation for CSAs received from the AP may implement this
3532  *	callback. They must then call ieee80211_chswitch_done() to indicate
3533  *	completion of the channel switch.
3534  *
3535  * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device.
3536  *	Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may
3537  *	reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL
3538  *	(also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX).
3539  *
3540  * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant).
3541  *
3542  * @remain_on_channel: Starts an off-channel period on the given channel, must
3543  *	call back to ieee80211_ready_on_channel() when on that channel. Note
3544  *	that normal channel traffic is not stopped as this is intended for hw
3545  *	offload. Frames to transmit on the off-channel channel are transmitted
3546  *	normally except for the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN flag. When the
3547  *	duration (which will always be non-zero) expires, the driver must call
3548  *	ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired().
3549  *	Note that this callback may be called while the device is in IDLE and
3550  *	must be accepted in this case.
3551  *	This callback may sleep.
3552  * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Requests that an ongoing off-channel period is
3553  *	aborted before it expires. This callback may sleep.
3554  *
3555  * @set_ringparam: Set tx and rx ring sizes.
3556  *
3557  * @get_ringparam: Get tx and rx ring current and maximum sizes.
3558  *
3559  * @tx_frames_pending: Check if there is any pending frame in the hardware
3560  *	queues before entering power save.
3561  *
3562  * @set_bitrate_mask: Set a mask of rates to be used for rate control selection
3563  *	when transmitting a frame. Currently only legacy rates are handled.
3564  *	The callback can sleep.
3565  * @event_callback: Notify driver about any event in mac80211. See
3566  *	&enum ieee80211_event_type for the different types.
3567  *	The callback must be atomic.
3568  *
3569  * @release_buffered_frames: Release buffered frames according to the given
3570  *	parameters. In the case where the driver buffers some frames for
3571  *	sleeping stations mac80211 will use this callback to tell the driver
3572  *	to release some frames, either for PS-poll or uAPSD.
3573  *	Note that if the @more_data parameter is %false the driver must check
3574  *	if there are more frames on the given TIDs, and if there are more than
3575  *	the frames being released then it must still set the more-data bit in
3576  *	the frame. If the @more_data parameter is %true, then of course the
3577  *	more-data bit must always be set.
3578  *	The @tids parameter tells the driver which TIDs to release frames
3579  *	from, for PS-poll it will always have only a single bit set.
3580  *	In the case this is used for a PS-poll initiated release, the
3581  *	@num_frames parameter will always be 1 so code can be shared. In
3582  *	this case the driver must also set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
3583  *	on the TX status (and must report TX status) so that the PS-poll
3584  *	period is properly ended. This is used to avoid sending multiple
3585  *	responses for a retried PS-poll frame.
3586  *	In the case this is used for uAPSD, the @num_frames parameter may be
3587  *	bigger than one, but the driver may send fewer frames (it must send
3588  *	at least one, however). In this case it is also responsible for
3589  *	setting the EOSP flag in the QoS header of the frames. Also, when the
3590  *	service period ends, the driver must set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP
3591  *	on the last frame in the SP. Alternatively, it may call the function
3592  *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() to inform mac80211 of the end of the SP.
3593  *	This callback must be atomic.
3594  * @allow_buffered_frames: Prepare device to allow the given number of frames
3595  *	to go out to the given station. The frames will be sent by mac80211
3596  *	via the usual TX path after this call. The TX information for frames
3597  *	released will also have the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER flag set
3598  *	and the last one will also have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set. In case
3599  *	frames from multiple TIDs are released and the driver might reorder
3600  *	them between the TIDs, it must set the %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
3601  *	on the last frame and clear it on all others and also handle the EOSP
3602  *	bit in the QoS header correctly. Alternatively, it can also call the
3603  *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() function.
3604  *	The @tids parameter is a bitmap and tells the driver which TIDs the
3605  *	frames will be on; it will at most have two bits set.
3606  *	This callback must be atomic.
3607  *
3608  * @get_et_sset_count:  Ethtool API to get string-set count.
3609  *
3610  * @get_et_stats:  Ethtool API to get a set of u64 stats.
3611  *
3612  * @get_et_strings:  Ethtool API to get a set of strings to describe stats
3613  *	and perhaps other supported types of ethtool data-sets.
3614  *
3615  * @mgd_prepare_tx: Prepare for transmitting a management frame for association
3616  *	before associated. In multi-channel scenarios, a virtual interface is
3617  *	bound to a channel before it is associated, but as it isn't associated
3618  *	yet it need not necessarily be given airtime, in particular since any
3619  *	transmission to a P2P GO needs to be synchronized against the GO's
3620  *	powersave state. mac80211 will call this function before transmitting a
3621  *	management frame prior to having successfully associated to allow the
3622  *	driver to give it channel time for the transmission, to get a response
3623  *	and to be able to synchronize with the GO.
3624  *	For drivers that set %IEEE80211_HW_DEAUTH_NEED_MGD_TX_PREP, mac80211
3625  *	would also call this function before transmitting a deauthentication
3626  *	frame in case that no beacon was heard from the AP/P2P GO.
3627  *	The callback will be called before each transmission and upon return
3628  *	mac80211 will transmit the frame right away.
3629  *      If duration is greater than zero, mac80211 hints to the driver the
3630  *      duration for which the operation is requested.
3631  *	The callback is optional and can (should!) sleep.
3632  *
3633  * @mgd_protect_tdls_discover: Protect a TDLS discovery session. After sending
3634  *	a TDLS discovery-request, we expect a reply to arrive on the AP's
3635  *	channel. We must stay on the channel (no PSM, scan, etc.), since a TDLS
3636  *	setup-response is a direct packet not buffered by the AP.
3637  *	mac80211 will call this function just before the transmission of a TDLS
3638  *	discovery-request. The recommended period of protection is at least
3639  *	2 * (DTIM period).
3640  *	The callback is optional and can sleep.
3641  *
3642  * @add_chanctx: Notifies device driver about new channel context creation.
3643  *	This callback may sleep.
3644  * @remove_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context destruction.
3645  *	This callback may sleep.
3646  * @change_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context changes that
3647  *	may happen when combining different virtual interfaces on the same
3648  *	channel context with different settings
3649  *	This callback may sleep.
3650  * @assign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being bound
3651  *	to vif. Possible use is for hw queue remapping.
3652  *	This callback may sleep.
3653  * @unassign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being
3654  *	unbound from vif.
3655  *	This callback may sleep.
3656  * @switch_vif_chanctx: switch a number of vifs from one chanctx to
3657  *	another, as specified in the list of
3658  *	@ieee80211_vif_chanctx_switch passed to the driver, according
3659  *	to the mode defined in &ieee80211_chanctx_switch_mode.
3660  *	This callback may sleep.
3661  *
3662  * @start_ap: Start operation on the AP interface, this is called after all the
3663  *	information in bss_conf is set and beacon can be retrieved. A channel
3664  *	context is bound before this is called. Note that if the driver uses
3665  *	software scan or ROC, this (and @stop_ap) isn't called when the AP is
3666  *	just "paused" for scanning/ROC, which is indicated by the beacon being
3667  *	disabled/enabled via @bss_info_changed.
3668  * @stop_ap: Stop operation on the AP interface.
3669  *
3670  * @reconfig_complete: Called after a call to ieee80211_restart_hw() and
3671  *	during resume, when the reconfiguration has completed.
3672  *	This can help the driver implement the reconfiguration step (and
3673  *	indicate mac80211 is ready to receive frames).
3674  *	This callback may sleep.
3675  *
3676  * @ipv6_addr_change: IPv6 address assignment on the given interface changed.
3677  *	Currently, this is only called for managed or P2P client interfaces.
3678  *	This callback is optional; it must not sleep.
3679  *
3680  * @channel_switch_beacon: Starts a channel switch to a new channel.
3681  *	Beacons are modified to include CSA or ECSA IEs before calling this
3682  *	function. The corresponding count fields in these IEs must be
3683  *	decremented, and when they reach 1 the driver must call
3684  *	ieee80211_csa_finish(). Drivers which use ieee80211_beacon_get()
3685  *	get the csa counter decremented by mac80211, but must check if it is
3686  *	1 using ieee80211_csa_is_complete() after the beacon has been
3687  *	transmitted and then call ieee80211_csa_finish().
3688  *	If the CSA count starts as zero or 1, this function will not be called,
3689  *	since there won't be any time to beacon before the switch anyway.
3690  * @pre_channel_switch: This is an optional callback that is called
3691  *	before a channel switch procedure is started (ie. when a STA
3692  *	gets a CSA or a userspace initiated channel-switch), allowing
3693  *	the driver to prepare for the channel switch.
3694  * @post_channel_switch: This is an optional callback that is called
3695  *	after a channel switch procedure is completed, allowing the
3696  *	driver to go back to a normal configuration.
3697  * @abort_channel_switch: This is an optional callback that is called
3698  *	when channel switch procedure was completed, allowing the
3699  *	driver to go back to a normal configuration.
3700  * @channel_switch_rx_beacon: This is an optional callback that is called
3701  *	when channel switch procedure is in progress and additional beacon with
3702  *	CSA IE was received, allowing driver to track changes in count.
3703  * @join_ibss: Join an IBSS (on an IBSS interface); this is called after all
3704  *	information in bss_conf is set up and the beacon can be retrieved. A
3705  *	channel context is bound before this is called.
3706  * @leave_ibss: Leave the IBSS again.
3707  *
3708  * @get_expected_throughput: extract the expected throughput towards the
3709  *	specified station. The returned value is expressed in Kbps. It returns 0
3710  *	if the RC algorithm does not have proper data to provide.
3711  *
3712  * @get_txpower: get current maximum tx power (in dBm) based on configuration
3713  *	and hardware limits.
3714  *
3715  * @tdls_channel_switch: Start channel-switching with a TDLS peer. The driver
3716  *	is responsible for continually initiating channel-switching operations
3717  *	and returning to the base channel for communication with the AP. The
3718  *	driver receives a channel-switch request template and the location of
3719  *	the switch-timing IE within the template as part of the invocation.
3720  *	The template is valid only within the call, and the driver can
3721  *	optionally copy the skb for further re-use.
3722  * @tdls_cancel_channel_switch: Stop channel-switching with a TDLS peer. Both
3723  *	peers must be on the base channel when the call completes.
3724  * @tdls_recv_channel_switch: a TDLS channel-switch related frame (request or
3725  *	response) has been received from a remote peer. The driver gets
3726  *	parameters parsed from the incoming frame and may use them to continue
3727  *	an ongoing channel-switch operation. In addition, a channel-switch
3728  *	response template is provided, together with the location of the
3729  *	switch-timing IE within the template. The skb can only be used within
3730  *	the function call.
3731  *
3732  * @wake_tx_queue: Called when new packets have been added to the queue.
3733  * @sync_rx_queues: Process all pending frames in RSS queues. This is a
3734  *	synchronization which is needed in case driver has in its RSS queues
3735  *	pending frames that were received prior to the control path action
3736  *	currently taken (e.g. disassociation) but are not processed yet.
3737  *
3738  * @start_nan: join an existing NAN cluster, or create a new one.
3739  * @stop_nan: leave the NAN cluster.
3740  * @nan_change_conf: change NAN configuration. The data in cfg80211_nan_conf
3741  *	contains full new configuration and changes specify which parameters
3742  *	are changed with respect to the last NAN config.
3743  *	The driver gets both full configuration and the changed parameters since
3744  *	some devices may need the full configuration while others need only the
3745  *	changed parameters.
3746  * @add_nan_func: Add a NAN function. Returns 0 on success. The data in
3747  *	cfg80211_nan_func must not be referenced outside the scope of
3748  *	this call.
3749  * @del_nan_func: Remove a NAN function. The driver must call
3750  *	ieee80211_nan_func_terminated() with
3751  *	NL80211_NAN_FUNC_TERM_REASON_USER_REQUEST reason code upon removal.
3752  * @can_aggregate_in_amsdu: Called in order to determine if HW supports
3753  *	aggregating two specific frames in the same A-MSDU. The relation
3754  *	between the skbs should be symmetric and transitive. Note that while
3755  *	skb is always a real frame, head may or may not be an A-MSDU.
3756  * @get_ftm_responder_stats: Retrieve FTM responder statistics, if available.
3757  *	Statistics should be cumulative, currently no way to reset is provided.
3758  *
3759  * @start_pmsr: start peer measurement (e.g. FTM) (this call can sleep)
3760  * @abort_pmsr: abort peer measurement (this call can sleep)
