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.

84  * All work performed on the mac80211 workqueue must not acquire the RTNL lock.

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).

539  *	valid in station mode only if after the driver was notified
540  *	with the %BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_INFO flag, will be non-zero then.
541  * @sync_tsf: last beacon's/probe response's TSF timestamp (could be old
542  *	as it may have been received during scanning long ago). If the
543  *	HW flag %IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY is set, then this can
544  *	only come from a beacon, but might not become valid until after
545  *	association when a beacon is received (which is notified with the
546  *	%BSS_CHANGED_DTIM flag.). See also sync_dtim_count important notice.
547  * @sync_device_ts: the device timestamp corresponding to the sync_tsf,
548  *	the driver/device can use this to calculate synchronisation
549  *	(see @sync_tsf). See also sync_dtim_count important notice.
550  * @sync_dtim_count: Only valid when %IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY
551  *	is requested, see @sync_tsf/@sync_device_ts.
552  *	IMPORTANT: These three sync_* parameters would possibly be out of sync

565  *	configured a higher bandwidth than this BSS uses, for example.
566  * @mu_group: VHT MU-MIMO group membership data
567  * @ht_operation_mode: HT operation mode like in &struct ieee80211_ht_operation.
568  *	This field is only valid when the channel is a wide HT/VHT channel.
569  *	Note that with TDLS this can be the case (channel is HT, protection must
570  *	be used from this field) even when the BSS association isn't using HT.
571  * @cqm_rssi_thold: Connection quality monitor RSSI threshold, a zero value
572  *	implies disabled. As with the cfg80211 callback, a change here should
573  *	cause an event to be sent indicating where the current value is in
574  *	relation to the newly configured threshold.
575  * @cqm_rssi_low: Connection quality monitor RSSI lower threshold, a zero value
576  *	implies disabled.  This is an alternative mechanism to the single
577  *	threshold event and can't be enabled simultaneously with it.
578  * @cqm_rssi_high: Connection quality monitor RSSI upper threshold.
579  * @cqm_rssi_hyst: Connection quality monitor RSSI hysteresis
580  * @arp_addr_list: List of IPv4 addresses for hardware ARP filtering. The
581  *	may filter ARP queries targeted for other addresses than listed here.
582  *	The driver must allow ARP queries targeted for all address listed here
583  *	to pass through. An empty list implies no ARP queries need to pass.

585  *	may be larger than %IEEE80211_BSS_ARP_ADDR_LIST_LEN (the arp_addr_list
586  *	array size), it's up to the driver what to do in that case.
587  * @qos: This is a QoS-enabled BSS.
588  * @idle: This interface is idle. There's also a global idle flag in the
589  *	hardware config which may be more appropriate depending on what
590  *	your driver/device needs to do.
591  * @ps: power-save mode (STA only). This flag is NOT affected by
592  *	offchannel/dynamic_ps operations.
593  * @ssid: The SSID of the current vif. Valid in AP and IBSS mode.
594  * @ssid_len: Length of SSID given in @ssid.
595  * @hidden_ssid: The SSID of the current vif is hidden. Only valid in AP-mode.
596  * @txpower: TX power in dBm.  INT_MIN means not configured.
597  * @txpower_type: TX power adjustment used to control per packet Transmit
598  *	Power Control (TPC) in lower driver for the current vif. In particular
599  *	TPC is enabled if value passed in %txpower_type is
600  *	NL80211_TX_POWER_LIMITED (allow using less than specified from
601  *	userspace), whereas TPC is disabled if %txpower_type is set to
602  *	NL80211_TX_POWER_FIXED (use value configured from userspace)
603  * @p2p_noa_attr: P2P NoA attribute for P2P powersave
604  * @allow_p2p_go_ps: indication for AP or P2P GO interface, whether it's allowed
605  *	to use P2P PS mechanism or not. AP/P2P GO is not allowed to use P2P PS
606  *	if it has associated clients without P2P PS support.
607  * @max_idle_period: the time period during which the station can refrain from
608  *	transmitting frames to its associated AP without being disassociated.
609  *	In units of 1000 TUs. Zero value indicates that the AP did not include
610  *	a (valid) BSS Max Idle Period Element.
611  * @protected_keep_alive: if set, indicates that the station should send an RSN
612  *	protected frame to the AP to reset the idle timer at the AP for the
613  *	station.
614  * @ftm_responder: whether to enable or disable fine timing measurement FTM
615  *	responder functionality.

626  *	connected to (STA)
627  * @he_obss_pd: OBSS Packet Detection parameters.

707 /**
708  * enum mac80211_tx_info_flags - flags to describe transmission information/status
709  *
710  * These flags are used with the @flags member of &ieee80211_tx_info.
711  *
712  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS: require TX status callback for this frame.
713  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ: The driver has to assign a sequence
714  *	number to this frame, taking care of not overwriting the fragment
715  *	number and increasing the sequence number only when the
716  *	IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT flag is set. mac80211 will properly
717  *	assign sequence numbers to QoS-data frames but cannot do so correctly
718  *	for non-QoS-data and management frames because beacons need them from
719  *	that counter as well and mac80211 cannot guarantee proper sequencing.
720  *	If this flag is set, the driver should instruct the hardware to
721  *	assign a sequence number to the frame or assign one itself. Cf. IEEE
722  *	802.11-2007 7.1.3.4.1 paragraph 3. This flag will always be set for
723  *	beacons and always be clear for frames without a sequence number field.
724  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK: tell the low level not to wait for an ack
725  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT: clear powersave filter for destination
726  *	station
727  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT: this is a first fragment of the frame
728  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_SEND_AFTER_DTIM: send this frame after DTIM beacon
729  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU: this frame should be sent as part of an A-MPDU
730  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_INJECTED: Frame was injected, internal to mac80211.
731  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED: The frame was not transmitted
732  *	because the destination STA was in powersave mode. Note that to
733  *	avoid race conditions, the filter must be set by the hardware or
734  *	firmware upon receiving a frame that indicates that the station
735  *	went to sleep (must be done on device to filter frames already on
736  *	the queue) and may only be unset after mac80211 gives the OK for
737  *	that by setting the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT (see above),
738  *	since only then is it guaranteed that no more frames are in the
739  *	hardware queue.
740  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK: Frame was acknowledged
741  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU: The frame was aggregated, so status
742  * 	is for the whole aggregation.
743  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU_NO_BACK: no block ack was returned,
744  * 	so consider using block ack request (BAR).
745  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_RATE_CTRL_PROBE: internal to mac80211, can be
746  *	set by rate control algorithms to indicate probe rate, will
747  *	be cleared for fragmented frames (except on the last fragment)
748  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_OFFCHAN_TX_OK: Internal to mac80211. Used to indicate
749  *	that a frame can be transmitted while the queues are stopped for
750  *	off-channel operation.
751  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_HW_80211_ENCAP: This frame uses hardware encapsulation
752  *	(header conversion)
753  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRIED: completely internal to mac80211,
754  *	used to indicate that a frame was already retried due to PS
755  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT: completely internal to mac80211,
756  *	used to indicate frame should not be encrypted
757  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER: This frame is a response to a poll
758  *	frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD) or a non-bufferable MMPDU and must
759  *	be sent although the station is in powersave mode.
760  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES: More frames will be passed to the
761  *	transmit function after the current frame, this can be used
762  *	by drivers to kick the DMA queue only if unset or when the
763  *	queue gets full.
764  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRANSMISSION: This frame is being retransmitted
765  *	after TX status because the destination was asleep, it must not
766  *	be modified again (no seqno assignment, crypto, etc.)
767  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_MLME_CONN_TX: This frame was transmitted by the MLME
768  *	code for connection establishment, this indicates that its status
769  *	should kick the MLME state machine.
770  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NL80211_FRAME_TX: Frame was requested through nl80211
771  *	MLME command (internal to mac80211 to figure out whether to send TX
772  *	status to user space)
773  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_LDPC: tells the driver to use LDPC for this frame
774  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_STBC: Enables Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) for this
775  *	frame and selects the maximum number of streams that it can use.
776  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN: Marks this packet to be transmitted on
777  *	the off-channel channel when a remain-on-channel offload is done
778  *	in hardware -- normal packets still flow and are expected to be
779  *	handled properly by the device.
780  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_TKIP_MIC_FAILURE: Marks this packet to be used for TKIP
781  *	testing. It will be sent out with incorrect Michael MIC key to allow
782  *	TKIP countermeasures to be tested.
783  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_CCK_RATE: This frame will be sent at non CCK rate.
784  *	This flag is actually used for management frame especially for P2P
785  *	frames not being sent at CCK rate in 2GHz band.
786  * @IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP: This packet marks the end of service period,
787  *	when its status is reported the service period ends. For frames in
788  *	an SP that mac80211 transmits, it is already set; for driver frames
789  *	the driver may set this flag. It is also used to do the same for
790  *	PS-Poll responses.
791  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_USE_MINRATE: This frame will be sent at lowest rate.
792  *	This flag is used to send nullfunc frame at minimum rate when
793  *	the nullfunc is used for connection monitoring purpose.
794  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_DONTFRAG: Don't fragment this packet even if it
795  *	would be fragmented by size (this is optional, only used for
796  *	monitor injection).
797  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_NOACK_TRANSMITTED: A frame that was marked with
798  *	IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK has been successfully transmitted without
799  *	any errors (like issues specific to the driver/HW).
800  *	This flag must not be set for frames that don't request no-ack
801  *	behaviour with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK.
802  *
803  * Note: If you have to add new flags to the enumeration, then don't
804  *	 forget to update %IEEE80211_TX_TEMPORARY_FLAGS when necessary.

1223  *	Note that this flag is also currently only supported when a frame
1224  *	is also decrypted (ie. @RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED must be set)
1225  * @RX_FLAG_DUP_VALIDATED: The driver should set this flag if it did
1226  *	de-duplication by itself.
1227  * @RX_FLAG_FAILED_FCS_CRC: Set this flag if the FCS check failed on
1228  *	the frame.
1229  * @RX_FLAG_FAILED_PLCP_CRC: Set this flag if the PCLP check failed on
1230  *	the frame.
1231  * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_START: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
1232  *	field) is valid and contains the time the first symbol of the MPDU
1233  *	was received. This is useful in monitor mode and for proper IBSS
1234  *	merging.
1235  * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_END: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
1236  *	field) is valid and contains the time the last symbol of the MPDU
1237  *	(including FCS) was received.
1238  * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_PLCP_START: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
1239  *	field) is valid and contains the time the SYNC preamble was received.
1240  * @RX_FLAG_NO_SIGNAL_VAL: The signal strength value is not present.
1241  *	Valid only for data frames (mainly A-MPDU)
1242  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DETAILS: A-MPDU details are known, in particular the reference
1243  *	number (@ampdu_reference) must be populated and be a distinct number for
1244  *	each A-MPDU
1245  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_LAST_KNOWN: last subframe is known, should be set on all
1246  *	subframes of a single A-MPDU
1247  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_IS_LAST: this subframe is the last subframe of the A-MPDU
1248  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DELIM_CRC_ERROR: A delimiter CRC error has been detected
1249  *	on this subframe
1250  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DELIM_CRC_KNOWN: The delimiter CRC field is known (the CRC
1251  *	is stored in the @ampdu_delimiter_crc field)
1252  * @RX_FLAG_MIC_STRIPPED: The mic was stripped of this packet. Decryption was
1253  *	done by the hardware
1254  * @RX_FLAG_ONLY_MONITOR: Report frame only to monitor interfaces without
1255  *	processing it in any regular way.
1256  *	This is useful if drivers offload some frames but still want to report
1257  *	them for sniffing purposes.
1258  * @RX_FLAG_SKIP_MONITOR: Process and report frame to all interfaces except
1259  *	monitor interfaces.
1260  *	This is useful if drivers offload some frames but still want to report
1261  *	them for sniffing purposes.
1262  * @RX_FLAG_AMSDU_MORE: Some drivers may prefer to report separate A-MSDU
1263  *	subframes instead of a one huge frame for performance reasons.
1264  *	All, but the last MSDU from an A-MSDU should have this flag set. E.g.
1265  *	if an A-MSDU has 3 frames, the first 2 must have the flag set, while
1266  *	the 3rd (last) one must not have this flag set. The flag is used to
1267  *	deal with retransmission/duplication recovery properly since A-MSDU
1268  *	subframes share the same sequence number. Reported subframes can be
1269  *	either regular MSDU or singly A-MSDUs. Subframes must not be
1270  *	interleaved with other frames.
1271  * @RX_FLAG_RADIOTAP_VENDOR_DATA: This frame contains vendor-specific
1272  *	radiotap data in the skb->data (before the frame) as described by
1273  *	the &struct ieee80211_vendor_radiotap.
1274  * @RX_FLAG_ALLOW_SAME_PN: Allow the same PN as same packet before.
1275  *	This is used for AMSDU subframes which can have the same PN as
1276  *	the first subframe.
1277  * @RX_FLAG_ICV_STRIPPED: The ICV is stripped from this frame. CRC checking must
1278  *	be done in the hardware.
1279  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_EOF_BIT: Value of the EOF bit in the A-MPDU delimiter for this
1280  *	frame
1281  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_EOF_BIT_KNOWN: The EOF value is known
1282  * @RX_FLAG_RADIOTAP_HE: HE radiotap data is present

2033  *
2034  * A station table entry represents a station we are possibly
2035  * communicating with. Since stations are RCU-managed in

2037  * either be protected by rcu_read_lock() explicitly or implicitly,
2038  * or you must take good care to not use such a pointer after a
2039  * call to your sta_remove callback that removed it.

2052  *	otherwise always false)
2053  * @drv_priv: data area for driver use, will always be aligned to
2054  *	sizeof(void \*), size is determined in hw information.
2055  * @uapsd_queues: bitmap of queues configured for uapsd. Only valid

2065  * @rates: rate control selection table
2066  * @tdls: indicates whether the STA is a TDLS peer

2179  * done in a way that the simplest hardware doesn't need setting
2180  * any particular flags. There are some exceptions to this rule,
2181  * however, so you are advised to review these flags carefully.
2182  *
2183  * @IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL:
2184  *	The hardware or firmware includes rate control, and cannot be
2185  *	controlled by the stack. As such, no rate control algorithm
2186  *	should be instantiated, and the TX rate reported to userspace
2187  *	will be taken from the TX status instead of the rate control
2188  *	algorithm.
2189  *	Note that this requires that the driver implement a number of
2190  *	callbacks so it has the correct information, it needs to have
2191  *	the @set_rts_threshold callback and must look at the BSS config
2192  *	@use_cts_prot for G/N protection, @use_short_slot for slot
2193  *	timing in 2.4 GHz and @use_short_preamble for preambles for

2195  *
2196  * @IEEE80211_HW_RX_INCLUDES_FCS:
2197  *	Indicates that received frames passed to the stack include
2198  *	the FCS at the end.
2199  *
2200  * @IEEE80211_HW_HOST_BROADCAST_PS_BUFFERING:
2201  *	Some wireless LAN chipsets buffer broadcast/multicast frames
2202  *	for power saving stations in the hardware/firmware and others
2203  *	rely on the host system for such buffering. This option is used
2204  *	to configure the IEEE 802.11 upper layer to buffer broadcast and
2205  *	multicast frames when there are power saving stations so that
2206  *	the driver can fetch them with ieee80211_get_buffered_bc().
2207  *
2208  * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC:
2209  *	Hardware can provide signal values but we don't know its units. We
2210  *	expect values between 0 and @max_signal.
2211  *	If possible please provide dB or dBm instead.
2212  *
2213  * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM:
2214  *	Hardware gives signal values in dBm, decibel difference from
2215  *	one milliwatt. This is the preferred method since it is standardized
2216  *	between different devices. @max_signal does not need to be set.
2217  *
2218  * @IEEE80211_HW_SPECTRUM_MGMT:
2219  * 	Hardware supports spectrum management defined in 802.11h
2220  * 	Measurement, Channel Switch, Quieting, TPC
2221  *
2222  * @IEEE80211_HW_AMPDU_AGGREGATION:
2223  *	Hardware supports 11n A-MPDU aggregation.
2224  *
2225  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS:
2226  *	Hardware has power save support (i.e. can go to sleep).
2227  *
2228  * @IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK:
2229  *	Hardware requires nullfunc frame handling in stack, implies
2230  *	stack support for dynamic PS.
2231  *
2232  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS:
2233  *	Hardware has support for dynamic PS.
2234  *
2235  * @IEEE80211_HW_MFP_CAPABLE:
2236  *	Hardware supports management frame protection (MFP, IEEE 802.11w).
2237  *
2238  * @IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS:
2239  *	Hardware can provide ack status reports of Tx frames to
2240  *	the stack.
2241  *
2242  * @IEEE80211_HW_CONNECTION_MONITOR:
2243  *	The hardware performs its own connection monitoring, including
2244  *	periodic keep-alives to the AP and probing the AP on beacon loss.
2245  *
2246  * @IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_BEFORE_ASSOC:

2249  *
2250  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PER_STA_GTK: The device's crypto engine supports
2251  *	per-station GTKs as used by IBSS RSN or during fast transition. If
2252  *	the device doesn't support per-station GTKs, but can be asked not
2253  *	to decrypt group addressed frames, then IBSS RSN support is still
2254  *	possible but software crypto will be used. Advertise the wiphy flag
2255  *	only in that case.
2256  *
2257  * @IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS: When operating in AP mode the device
2258  *	autonomously manages the PS status of connected stations. When
2259  *	this flag is set mac80211 will not trigger PS mode for connected
2260  *	stations based on the PM bit of incoming frames.
2261  *	Use ieee80211_start_ps()/ieee8021_end_ps() to manually configure
2262  *	the PS mode of connected stations.
2263  *
2264  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_AMPDU_SETUP_IN_HW: The device handles TX A-MPDU session
2265  *	setup strictly in HW. mac80211 should not attempt to do this in
2266  *	software.
2267  *
2268  * @IEEE80211_HW_WANT_MONITOR_VIF: The driver would like to be informed of
2269  *	a virtual monitor interface when monitor interfaces are the only
2270  *	active interfaces.
2271  *
2272  * @IEEE80211_HW_NO_AUTO_VIF: The driver would like for no wlanX to
2273  *	be created.  It is expected user-space will create vifs as
2274  *	desired (and thus have them named as desired).
2275  *
2276  * @IEEE80211_HW_SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL: The driver wants to control which of the
2277  *	crypto algorithms can be done in software - so don't automatically
2278  *	try to fall back to it if hardware crypto fails, but do so only if
2279  *	the driver returns 1. This also forces the driver to advertise its
2280  *	supported cipher suites.
2281  *
2282  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORT_FAST_XMIT: The driver/hardware supports fast-xmit,
2283  *	this currently requires only the ability to calculate the duration
2284  *	for frames.
2285  *
2286  * @IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL: The driver wants to control per-interface
2287  *	queue mapping in order to use different queues (not just one per AC)
2288  *	for different virtual interfaces. See the doc section on HW queue
2289  *	control for more details.
2290  *
2291  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_RC_TABLE: The driver supports using a rate
2292  *	selection table provided by the rate control algorithm.
2293  *
2294  * @IEEE80211_HW_P2P_DEV_ADDR_FOR_INTF: Use the P2P Device address for any
2295  *	P2P Interface. This will be honoured even if more than one interface
2296  *	is supported.
2297  *
2298  * @IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY: Use sync timing from beacon frames
2299  *	only, to allow getting TBTT of a DTIM beacon.
2300  *
2301  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_HT_CCK_RATES: Hardware supports mixing HT/CCK rates
2302  *	and can cope with CCK rates in an aggregation session (e.g. by not
2303  *	using aggregation for such frames.)
2304  *
2305  * @IEEE80211_HW_CHANCTX_STA_CSA: Support 802.11h based channel-switch (CSA)
2306  *	for a single active channel while using channel contexts. When support
2307  *	is not enabled the default action is to disconnect when getting the
2308  *	CSA frame.
2309  *
2310  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_CLONED_SKBS: The driver will never modify the payload
2311  *	or tailroom of TX skbs without copying them first.
2312  *
2313  * @IEEE80211_HW_SINGLE_SCAN_ON_ALL_BANDS: The HW supports scanning on all bands
2314  *	in one command, mac80211 doesn't have to run separate scans per band.
2315  *
2316  * @IEEE80211_HW_TDLS_WIDER_BW: The device/driver supports wider bandwidth
2317  *	than then BSS bandwidth for a TDLS link on the base channel.
2318  *
2319  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_AMSDU_IN_AMPDU: The driver supports receiving A-MSDUs
2320  *	within A-MPDU.
2321  *
2322  * @IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_TX_STATUS: The device/driver provides TX status
2323  *	for sent beacons.
2324  *
2325  * @IEEE80211_HW_NEEDS_UNIQUE_STA_ADDR: Hardware (or driver) requires that each
2326  *	station has a unique address, i.e. each station entry can be identified
2327  *	by just its MAC address; this prevents, for example, the same station
2328  *	from connecting to two virtual AP interfaces at the same time.
2329  *
2330  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_REORDERING_BUFFER: Hardware (or driver) manages the
2331  *	reordering buffer internally, guaranteeing mac80211 receives frames in
2332  *	order and does not need to manage its own reorder buffer or BA session
2333  *	timeout.
2334  *
2335  * @IEEE80211_HW_USES_RSS: The device uses RSS and thus requires parallel RX,
2336  *	which implies using per-CPU station statistics.
2337  *
2338  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_AMSDU: Hardware (or driver) supports software aggregated
2339  *	A-MSDU frames. Requires software tx queueing and fast-xmit support.
2340  *	When not using minstrel/minstrel_ht rate control, the driver must
2341  *	limit the maximum A-MSDU size based on the current tx rate by setting
2342  *	max_rc_amsdu_len in struct ieee80211_sta.
2343  *
2344  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_FRAG_LIST: Hardware (or driver) supports sending frag_list
2345  *	skbs, needed for zero-copy software A-MSDU.
2346  *
2347  * @IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_LOW_ACK: The driver (or firmware) reports low ack event
2348  *	by ieee80211_report_low_ack() based on its own algorithm. For such
2349  *	drivers, mac80211 packet loss mechanism will not be triggered and driver
2350  *	is completely depending on firmware event for station kickout.
2351  *
2352  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_TX_FRAG: Hardware does fragmentation by itself.
2353  *	The stack will not do fragmentation.
2354  *	The callback for @set_frag_threshold should be set as well.
2355  *
2356  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_TDLS_BUFFER_STA: Hardware supports buffer STA on
2357  *	TDLS links.
2358  *
2359  * @IEEE80211_HW_DEAUTH_NEED_MGD_TX_PREP: The driver requires the
2360  *	mgd_prepare_tx() callback to be called before transmission of a
2361  *	deauthentication frame in case the association was completed but no
2362  *	beacon was heard. This is required in multi-channel scenarios, where the
2363  *	virtual interface might not be given air time for the transmission of
2364  *	the frame, as it is not synced with the AP/P2P GO yet, and thus the
2365  *	deauthentication frame might not be transmitted.
2366  *
2367  * @IEEE80211_HW_DOESNT_SUPPORT_QOS_NDP: The driver (or firmware) doesn't
2368  *	support QoS NDP for AP probing - that's most likely a driver bug.
2369  *
2370  * @IEEE80211_HW_BUFF_MMPDU_TXQ: use the TXQ for bufferable MMPDUs, this of
2371  *	course requires the driver to use TXQs to start with.
2372  *
2373  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_VHT_EXT_NSS_BW: (Hardware) rate control supports VHT
2374  *	extended NSS BW (dot11VHTExtendedNSSBWCapable). This flag will be set if
2375  *	the selected rate control algorithm sets %RATE_CTRL_CAPA_VHT_EXT_NSS_BW
2376  *	but if the rate control is built-in then it must be set by the driver.
2377  *	See also the documentation for that flag.
2378  *
2379  * @IEEE80211_HW_STA_MMPDU_TXQ: use the extra non-TID per-station TXQ for all
2380  *	MMPDUs on station interfaces. This of course requires the driver to use
2381  *	TXQs to start with.
2382  *
2383  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_STATUS_NO_AMPDU_LEN: Driver does not report accurate A-MPDU
2384  *	length in tx status information
2385  *
2386  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_MULTI_BSSID: Hardware supports multi BSSID
2387  *
2388  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_ONLY_HE_MULTI_BSSID: Hardware supports multi BSSID

2390  *
2391  * @IEEE80211_HW_AMPDU_KEYBORDER_SUPPORT: The card and driver is only
2392  *	aggregating MPDUs with the same keyid, allowing mac80211 to keep Tx
2393  *	A-MPDU sessions active while rekeying with Extended Key ID.
2394  *

2472  *
2473  * @wiphy: This points to the &struct wiphy allocated for this

2475  *	members of this structure using SET_IEEE80211_DEV()
2476  *	and SET_IEEE80211_PERM_ADDR(). Additionally, all supported
2477  *	bands (with channels, bitrates) are registered here.

2487  *	for use by the driver (e.g. for transmit headers.)
2488  *
2489  * @extra_beacon_tailroom: tailroom to reserve in each beacon tx skb.

2493  *	only when @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC or @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB
2494  *
2495  * @max_listen_interval: max listen interval in units of beacon interval
2496  *	that HW supports
2497  *
2498  * @queues: number of available hardware transmit queues for

2500  *	queues need to have configurable access parameters.
2501  *
2502  * @rate_control_algorithm: rate control algorithm for this hardware.
2503  *	If unset (NULL), the default algorithm will be used. Must be
2504  *	set before calling ieee80211_register_hw().
2505  *

2522  *	sub-frames) to be used for A-MPDU block ack receiver
2523  *	aggregation.
2524  *	This is only relevant if the device has restrictions on the
2525  *	number of subframes, if it relies on mac80211 to do reordering
2526  *	it shouldn't be set.
2527  *
2528  * @max_tx_aggregation_subframes: maximum number of subframes in an
2529  *	aggregate an HT/HE device will transmit. In HT AddBA we'll
2530  *	advertise a constant value of 64 as some older APs crash if

2542  *	reports, by default it is set to _MCS, _GI and _BW but doesn't
2543  *	include _FMT. Use %IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_MCS_HAVE_\* values, only
2544  *	adding _BW is supported today.
2545  *
2546  * @radiotap_vht_details: lists which VHT MCS information the HW reports,
2547  *	the default is _GI | _BANDWIDTH.

2549  *
2550  * @radiotap_he: HE radiotap validity flags
2551  *
2552  * @radiotap_timestamp: Information for the radiotap timestamp field; if the
2553  *	@units_pos member is set to a non-negative value then the timestamp
2554  *	field will be added and populated from the &struct ieee80211_rx_status
2555  *	device_timestamp.
2556  * @radiotap_timestamp.units_pos: Must be set to a combination of a
2557  *	IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_TIMESTAMP_UNIT_* and a

2566  * @uapsd_queues: This bitmap is included in (re)association frame to indicate
2567  *	for each access category if it is uAPSD trigger-enabled and delivery-
2568  *	enabled. Use IEEE80211_WMM_IE_STA_QOSINFO_AC_* to set this bitmap.
2569  *	Each bit corresponds to different AC. Value '1' in specific bit means
2570  *	that corresponding AC is both trigger- and delivery-enabled. '0' means
2571  *	neither enabled.
2572  *
2573  * @uapsd_max_sp_len: maximum number of total buffered frames the WMM AP may
2574  *	deliver to a WMM STA during any Service Period triggered by the WMM STA.
2575  *	Use IEEE80211_WMM_IE_STA_QOSINFO_SP_* for correct values.

2585  *	unless the driver has good reasons for needing more buffers.
2586  *
2587  * @weight_multiplier: Driver specific airtime weight multiplier used while
2588  *	refilling deficit of each TXQ.
2589  *
2590  * @max_mtu: the max mtu could be set.

2758  * DOC: Hardware crypto acceleration
2759  *
2760  * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware
2761  * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.
2762  *
2763  * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
2764  * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
2765  * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
2766  * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
2767  * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
2768  * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
2769  * VLANs are configured for an access point.
2770  *
2771  * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
2772  * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
2773  * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
2774  *
2775  * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
2776  * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
2777  * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
2778  * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
2779  *
2780  * Note that in the case that the @IEEE80211_HW_SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL flag is
2781  * set, mac80211 will not automatically fall back to software crypto if
2782  * enabling hardware crypto failed. The set_key() call may also return the
2783  * value 1 to permit this specific key/algorithm to be done in software.
2784  *
2785  * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
2786  *
2787  * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
2788  * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
2789  * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
2790  * based on the receive flags.
2791  *
2792  * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
2793  * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
2794  * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
2795  * keys.
2796  *
2797  * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
2798  * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
2799  * handler.
2800  * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
2801  * This happens every time the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
2802  * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
2803  * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
2804  * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
2805  * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.
2806  *
2807  * The set_default_unicast_key() call updates the default WEP key index
2808  * configured to the hardware for WEP encryption type. This is required

2814  * 1) They do not hand over frames decrypted with the old key to

2816       completed when also setting @IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_GENERATE_IV for any key,
2817    2) either drop or continue to use the old key for any outgoing frames queued
2818       at the time of the key deletion (including re-transmits),
2819    3) never send out a frame queued prior to the set_key() %SET_KEY command
2820       encrypted with the new key and
2821    4) never send out a frame unencrypted when it should be encrypted.

2826  * DOC: Powersave support
2827  *
2828  * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
2829  *
2830  * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
2831  * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
2832  * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
2833  * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
2834  * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
2835  * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
2836  * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
2837  * it finds traffic directed to it.
2838  *
2839  * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
2840  * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
2841  * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
2842  * up the hardware before issuing commands to the hardware and putting it
2843  * back to sleep at appropriate times.
2844  *
2845  * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
2846  * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
2847  * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
2848  *
2849  * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
2850  * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
2851  * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
2852  * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
2853  * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
2854  * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
2855  * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
2856  *
2857  * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
2858  * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
2859  * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
2860  * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
2861  * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
2862  * periods.
2863  *
2864  * Dynamic powersave is simply supported by mac80211 enabling and disabling
2865  * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
2866  * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
2867  * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
2868  * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
2869  * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
2870  * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
2871  * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
2872  * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
2873  * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
2874  *
2875  * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
2876  * %IEEE80211_VIF_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
2877  * uapsd parameter in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
2878  * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
2879  * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
2880  * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.
2881  *
2882  * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with
2883  * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK.

2886 /**
2887  * DOC: Beacon filter support
2888  *
2889  * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
2890  * which will reduce system power consumption. It usually works so that
2891  * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
2892  * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
2893  * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
2894  * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
2895  * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
2896  *
2897  * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER
2898  * interface capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
2899  * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
2900  * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
2901  * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
2902  *
2903  * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
2904  * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
2905  * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
2906  * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
2907  *
2908  * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
2909  * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
2910  * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
2911  * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
2912  *
2913  *  - a list of information element IDs
2914  *  - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
2915  *
2916  * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
2917  * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
2918  * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
2919  * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
2920  * vendor information elements.
2921  *
2922  * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
2923  * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
2924  *
2925  * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
2926  * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
2927  * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
2928  * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
2929  * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
2930  * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
2931  *
2932  *
2933  * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
2934  * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
2935  * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
2936  * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
2937  * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
2938  * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
2939  * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
2940  * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
2941  *
2942  * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
2943  * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
2944  * signal strength threshold checking.

2948  * DOC: Spatial multiplexing power save
2949  *
2950  * SMPS (Spatial multiplexing power save) is a mechanism to conserve
2951  * power in an 802.11n implementation. For details on the mechanism
2952  * and rationale, please refer to 802.11 (as amended by 802.11n-2009)
2953  * "11.2.3 SM power save".
2954  *
2955  * The mac80211 implementation is capable of sending action frames
2956  * to update the AP about the station's SMPS mode, and will instruct
2957  * the driver to enter the specific mode. It will also announce the
2958  * requested SMPS mode during the association handshake. Hardware

2963  * defines to be dynamic SMPS in (regular) powersave, and SMPS
2964  * turned off otherwise.
2965  *
2966  * To support this feature, the driver must set the appropriate
2967  * hardware support flags, and handle the SMPS flag to the config()

2972 /**
2973  * DOC: Frame filtering
2974  *
2975  * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
2976  * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
2977  * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
2978  * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
2979  * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
2980  *
2981  * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
2982  * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
2983  * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
2984  *
2985  * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
2986  * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
2987  * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
2988  * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
2989  * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
2990  * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
2991  * @total_flags with the new flag states.
2992  *
2993  * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
2994  * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
2995  * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
2996  * or dropped.
2997  *
2998  * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
2999  * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
3000  * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
3001  * the flag, but not clear it.
3002  * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
3003  * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
3004  * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
3005  * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
3006  * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
3007  * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
3008  * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
3009  * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.

3011 
3012 /**
3013  * DOC: AP support for powersaving clients
3014  *
3015  * In order to implement AP and P2P GO modes, mac80211 has support for
3016  * client powersaving, both "legacy" PS (PS-Poll/null data) and uAPSD.
3017  * There currently is no support for sAPSD.
3018  *
3019  * There is one assumption that mac80211 makes, namely that a client
3020  * will not poll with PS-Poll and trigger with uAPSD at the same time.
3021  * Both are supported, and both can be used by the same client, but
3022  * they can't be used concurrently by the same client. This simplifies
3023  * the driver code.
3024  *
3025  * The first thing to keep in mind is that there is a flag for complete
3026  * driver implementation: %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS. If this flag is set,
3027  * mac80211 expects the driver to handle most of the state machine for
3028  * powersaving clients and will ignore the PM bit in incoming frames.
3029  * Drivers then use ieee80211_sta_ps_transition() to inform mac80211 of
3030  * stations' powersave transitions. In this mode, mac80211 also doesn't
3031  * handle PS-Poll/uAPSD.
3032  *
3033  * In the mode without %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS, mac80211 will check the
3034  * PM bit in incoming frames for client powersave transitions. When a
3035  * station goes to sleep, we will stop transmitting to it. There is,
3036  * however, a race condition: a station might go to sleep while there is
3037  * data buffered on hardware queues. If the device has support for this
3038  * it will reject frames, and the driver should give the frames back to
3039  * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED flag set which will
3040  * cause mac80211 to retry the frame when the station wakes up. The
3041  * driver is also notified of powersave transitions by calling its
3042  * @sta_notify callback.
3043  *
3044  * When the station is asleep, it has three choices: it can wake up,
3045  * it can PS-Poll, or it can possibly start a uAPSD service period.
3046  * Waking up is implemented by simply transmitting all buffered (and
3047  * filtered) frames to the station. This is the easiest case. When
3048  * the station sends a PS-Poll or a uAPSD trigger frame, mac80211
3049  * will inform the driver of this with the @allow_buffered_frames
3050  * callback; this callback is optional. mac80211 will then transmit
3051  * the frames as usual and set the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER
3052  * on each frame. The last frame in the service period (or the only
3053  * response to a PS-Poll) also has %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set to
3054  * indicate that it ends the service period; as this frame must have
3055  * TX status report it also sets %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS.
3056  * When TX status is reported for this frame, the service period is
3057  * marked has having ended and a new one can be started by the peer.
3058  *
3059  * Additionally, non-bufferable MMPDUs can also be transmitted by
3060  * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER set in them.
3061  *
3062  * Another race condition can happen on some devices like iwlwifi
3063  * when there are frames queued for the station and it wakes up
3064  * or polls; the frames that are already queued could end up being
3065  * transmitted first instead, causing reordering and/or wrong
3066  * processing of the EOSP. The cause is that allowing frames to be
3067  * transmitted to a certain station is out-of-band communication to
3068  * the device. To allow this problem to be solved, the driver can
3069  * call ieee80211_sta_block_awake() if frames are buffered when it
3070  * is notified that the station went to sleep. When all these frames
3071  * have been filtered (see above), it must call the function again
3072  * to indicate that the station is no longer blocked.
3073  *
3074  * If the driver buffers frames in the driver for aggregation in any
3075  * way, it must use the ieee80211_sta_set_buffered() call when it is
3076  * notified of the station going to sleep to inform mac80211 of any
3077  * TIDs that have frames buffered. Note that when a station wakes up
3078  * this information is reset (hence the requirement to call it when
3079  * informed of the station going to sleep). Then, when a service
3080  * period starts for any reason, @release_buffered_frames is called
3081  * with the number of frames to be released and which TIDs they are
3082  * to come from. In this case, the driver is responsible for setting
3083  * the EOSP (for uAPSD) and MORE_DATA bits in the released frames,
3084  * to help the @more_data parameter is passed to tell the driver if
3085  * there is more data on other TIDs -- the TIDs to release frames
3086  * from are ignored since mac80211 doesn't know how many frames the
3087  * buffers for those TIDs contain.
3088  *
3089  * If the driver also implement GO mode, where absence periods may
3090  * shorten service periods (or abort PS-Poll responses), it must
3091  * filter those response frames except in the case of frames that
3092  * are buffered in the driver -- those must remain buffered to avoid
3093  * reordering. Because it is possible that no frames are released
3094  * in this case, the driver must call ieee80211_sta_eosp()
3095  * to indicate to mac80211 that the service period ended anyway.
3096  *
3097  * Finally, if frames from multiple TIDs are released from mac80211
3098  * but the driver might reorder them, it must clear & set the flags
3099  * appropriately (only the last frame may have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP)
3100  * and also take care of the EOSP and MORE_DATA bits in the frame.
3101  * The driver may also use ieee80211_sta_eosp() in this case.
3102  *
3103  * Note that if the driver ever buffers frames other than QoS-data
3104  * frames, it must take care to never send a non-QoS-data frame as
3105  * the last frame in a service period, adding a QoS-nulldata frame
3106  * after a non-QoS-data frame if needed.

3109 /**
3110  * DOC: HW queue control
3111  *
3112  * Before HW queue control was introduced, mac80211 only had a single static
3113  * assignment of per-interface AC software queues to hardware queues. This
3114  * was problematic for a few reasons:
3115  * 1) off-channel transmissions might get stuck behind other frames
3116  * 2) multiple virtual interfaces couldn't be handled correctly
3117  * 3) after-DTIM frames could get stuck behind other frames
3118  *
3119  * To solve this, hardware typically uses multiple different queues for all
3120  * the different usages, and this needs to be propagated into mac80211 so it
3121  * won't have the same problem with the software queues.
3122  *
3123  * Therefore, mac80211 now offers the %IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL capability
3124  * flag that tells it that the driver implements its own queue control. To do
3125  * so, the driver will set up the various queues in each &struct ieee80211_vif
3126  * and the offchannel queue in &struct ieee80211_hw. In response, mac80211 will
3127  * use those queue IDs in the hw_queue field of &struct ieee80211_tx_info and
3128  * if necessary will queue the frame on the right software queue that mirrors
3129  * the hardware queue.
3130  * Additionally, the driver has to then use these HW queue IDs for the queue
3131  * management functions (ieee80211_stop_queue() et al.)
3132  *
3133  * The driver is free to set up the queue mappings as needed, multiple virtual
3134  * interfaces may map to the same hardware queues if needed. The setup has to
3135  * happen during add_interface or change_interface callbacks. For example, a
3136  * driver supporting station+station and station+AP modes might decide to have
3137  * 10 hardware queues to handle different scenarios:
3138  *
3139  * 4 AC HW queues for 1st vif: 0, 1, 2, 3
3140  * 4 AC HW queues for 2nd vif: 4, 5, 6, 7
3141  * after-DTIM queue for AP:   8
3142  * off-channel queue:         9
3143  *
3144  * It would then set up the hardware like this:
3145  *   hw.offchannel_tx_hw_queue = 9
3146  *
3147  * and the first virtual interface that is added as follows:
3148  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VO] = 0
3149  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VI] = 1
3150  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BE] = 2
3151  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BK] = 3
3152  *   vif.cab_queue = 8 // if AP mode, otherwise %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
3153  * and the second virtual interface with 4-7.
3154  *
3155  * If queue 6 gets full, for example, mac80211 would only stop the second
3156  * virtual interface's BE queue since virtual interface queues are per AC.
3157  *
3158  * Note that the vif.cab_queue value should be set to %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
3159  * whenever the queue is not used (i.e. the interface is not in AP mode) if the
3160  * queue could potentially be shared since mac80211 will look at cab_queue when
3161  * a queue is stopped/woken even if the interface is not in AP mode.

3366  *
3367  * This structure contains various callbacks that the driver may
3368  * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
3369  * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
3370  *
3371  * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
3372  *	skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
3373  *	The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
3374  *	configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
3375  *	preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately.
3376  *	Must be atomic.
3377  *
3378  * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
3379  *	is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
3380  *	frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
3381  *	Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
3382  *	or zero.
3383  *	When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
3384  *	to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
3385  *	is added.
3386  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
3387  *
3388  * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
3389  *	is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
3390  *	it must turn off frame reception.)
3391  *	May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
3392  *	an interface. If you added any work onto the mac80211 workqueue
3393  *	you should ensure to cancel it on this callback.
3394  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
3395  *
3396  * @suspend: Suspend the device; mac80211 itself will quiesce before and
3397  *	stop transmitting and doing any other configuration, and then
3398  *	ask the device to suspend. This is only invoked when WoWLAN is
3399  *	configured, otherwise the device is deconfigured completely and
3400  *	reconfigured at resume time.
3401  *	The driver may also impose special conditions under which it
3402  *	wants to use the "normal" suspend (deconfigure), say if it only
3403  *	supports WoWLAN when the device is associated. In this case, it
3404  *	must return 1 from this function.
3405  *
3406  * @resume: If WoWLAN was configured, this indicates that mac80211 is
3407  *	now resuming its operation, after this the device must be fully
3408  *	functional again. If this returns an error, the only way out is
3409  *	to also unregister the device. If it returns 1, then mac80211
3410  *	will also go through the regular complete restart on resume.
3411  *
3412  * @set_wakeup: Enable or disable wakeup when WoWLAN configuration is
3413  *	modified. The reason is that device_set_wakeup_enable() is
3414  *	supposed to be called when the configuration changes, not only
3415  *	in suspend().
3416  *
3417  * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
3418  *	enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
3419  *	and @stop must be implemented.
3420  *	The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
3421  *	the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
3422  *	interface is given in the conf parameter.
3423  *	The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
3424  *	negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
3425  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
3426  *
3427  * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback
3428  *	is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be
3429  *	switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep.
3430  *	Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be
3431  *	found by the interface iteration callbacks.
3432  *
3433  * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
3434  *	The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
3435  *	and no monitor interfaces are present.
3436  *	When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
3437  *	must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
3438  *	the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
3439  *	MAC address of the device going away.
3440  *	Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.
3441  *
3442  * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
3443  *	function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
3444  *	This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
3445  *	if it does. The callback can sleep.
3446  *
3447  * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
3448  *	parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
3449  *	level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
3450  *	This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
3451  *	for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
3452  *	of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback
3453  *	can sleep.
3454  *
3455  * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration.
3456  *	This callback is optional, and its return value is passed
3457  *	to configure_filter(). This callback must be atomic.
3458  *
3459  * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
3460  *	See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
3461  *	This callback must be implemented and can sleep.
3462  *
3463  * @config_iface_filter: Configure the interface's RX filter.
3464  *	This callback is optional and is used to configure which frames
3465  *	should be passed to mac80211. The filter_flags is the combination
3466  *	of FIF_* flags. The changed_flags is a bit mask that indicates
3467  *	which flags are changed.
3468  *	This callback can sleep.
3469  *
3470  * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
3471  * 	must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
3472  *
3473  * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
3474  *	This callback is only called between add_interface and
3475  *	remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
3476  *	is enabled.
3477  *	Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
3478  *	The callback can sleep.
3479  *
3480  * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
3481  * 	This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
3482  * 	which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
3483  *	The callback must be atomic.
3484  *
3485  * @set_rekey_data: If the device supports GTK rekeying, for example while the
3486  *	host is suspended, it can assign this callback to retrieve the data
3487  *	necessary to do GTK rekeying, this is the KEK, KCK and replay counter.
3488  *	After rekeying was done it should (for example during resume) notify
3489  *	userspace of the new replay counter using ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify().
3490  *
3491  * @set_default_unicast_key: Set the default (unicast) key index, useful for
3492  *	WEP when the device sends data packets autonomously, e.g. for ARP
3493  *	offloading. The index can be 0-3, or -1 for unsetting it.
3494  *
3495  * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
3496  *	the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
3497  *	configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
3498  *	registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
3499  *	that power save is disabled.
3500  *	The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
3501  *	entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
3502  *	at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
3503  *	(extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
3504  *	When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
3505  *	note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
3506  *	any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
3507  *	This callback is also allowed to return the special return value 1,
3508  *	this indicates that hardware scan isn't desirable right now and a
3509  *	software scan should be done instead. A driver wishing to use this
3510  *	capability must ensure its (hardware) scan capabilities aren't
3511  *	advertised as more capable than mac80211's software scan is.
3512  *	The callback can sleep.
3513  *
3514  * @cancel_hw_scan: Ask the low-level tp cancel the active hw scan.
3515  *	The driver should ask the hardware to cancel the scan (if possible),
3516  *	but the scan will be completed only after the driver will call
3517  *	ieee80211_scan_completed().
3518  *	This callback is needed for wowlan, to prevent enqueueing a new
3519  *	scan_work after the low-level driver was already suspended.
3520  *	The callback can sleep.
3521  *
3522  * @sched_scan_start: Ask the hardware to start scanning repeatedly at
3523  *	specific intervals.  The driver must call the
3524  *	ieee80211_sched_scan_results() function whenever it finds results.
3525  *	This process will continue until sched_scan_stop is called.
3526  *
3527  * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the hardware to stop an ongoing scheduled scan.
3528  *	In this case, ieee80211_sched_scan_stopped() must not be called.
3529  *
3530  * @sw_scan_start: Notifier function that is called just before a software scan
3531  *	is started. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
3532  *	The mac_addr parameter allows supporting NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_RANDOM_ADDR,
3533  *	the driver may set the NL80211_FEATURE_SCAN_RANDOM_MAC_ADDR flag if it
3534  *	can use this parameter. The callback can sleep.
3535  *
3536  * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a
3537  *	software scan finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need
3538  *	this notification.
3539  *	The callback can sleep.
3540  *
3541  * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
3542  * 	Returns zero if statistics are available.
3543  *	The callback can sleep.
3544  *
3545  * @get_key_seq: If your device implements encryption in hardware and does
3546  *	IV/PN assignment then this callback should be provided to read the
3547  *	IV/PN for the given key from hardware.
3548  *	The callback must be atomic.
3549  *
3550  * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this
3551  *	if the device does fragmentation by itself. Note that to prevent the
3552  *	stack from doing fragmentation IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_TX_FRAG
3553  *	should be set as well.
3554  *	The callback can sleep.
3555  *
3556  * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
3557  *	The callback can sleep.
3558  *
3559  * @sta_add: Notifies low level driver about addition of an associated station,
3560  *	AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
3561  *
3562  * @sta_remove: Notifies low level driver about removal of an associated
3563  *	station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. Note that after the callback
3564  *	returns it isn't safe to use the pointer, not even RCU protected;
3565  *	no RCU grace period is guaranteed between returning here and freeing
3566  *	the station. See @sta_pre_rcu_remove if needed.
3567  *	This callback can sleep.
3568  *
3569  * @sta_add_debugfs: Drivers can use this callback to add debugfs files
3570  *	when a station is added to mac80211's station list. This callback
3571  *	should be within a CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS conditional. This
3572  *	callback can sleep.
3573  *
3574  * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about power state transition of an
3575  *	associated station, AP,  IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. For a VIF operating
3576  *	in AP mode, this callback will not be called when the flag
3577  *	%IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS is set. Must be atomic.
3578  *
3579  * @sta_set_txpwr: Configure the station tx power. This callback set the tx
3580  *	power for the station.
3581  *	This callback can sleep.
3582  *
3583  * @sta_state: Notifies low level driver about state transition of a
3584  *	station (which can be the AP, a client, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc.)
3585  *	This callback is mutually exclusive with @sta_add/@sta_remove.
3586  *	It must not fail for down transitions but may fail for transitions
3587  *	up the list of states. Also note that after the callback returns it
3588  *	isn't safe to use the pointer, not even RCU protected - no RCU grace
3589  *	period is guaranteed between returning here and freeing the station.
3590  *	See @sta_pre_rcu_remove if needed.
3591  *	The callback can sleep.
3592  *
3593  * @sta_pre_rcu_remove: Notify driver about station removal before RCU
3594  *	synchronisation. This is useful if a driver needs to have station
3595  *	pointers protected using RCU, it can then use this call to clear
3596  *	the pointers instead of waiting for an RCU grace period to elapse
3597  *	in @sta_state.
3598  *	The callback can sleep.
3599  *
3600  * @sta_rc_update: Notifies the driver of changes to the bitrates that can be
3601  *	used to transmit to the station. The changes are advertised with bits
3602  *	from &enum ieee80211_rate_control_changed and the values are reflected
3603  *	in the station data. This callback should only be used when the driver
3604  *	uses hardware rate control (%IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL) since
3605  *	otherwise the rate control algorithm is notified directly.
3606  *	Must be atomic.
3607  * @sta_rate_tbl_update: Notifies the driver that the rate table changed. This
3608  *	is only used if the configured rate control algorithm actually uses
3609  *	the new rate table API, and is therefore optional. Must be atomic.
3610  *
3611  * @sta_statistics: Get statistics for this station. For example with beacon
3612  *	filtering, the statistics kept by mac80211 might not be accurate, so
3613  *	let the driver pre-fill the statistics. The driver can fill most of
3614  *	the values (indicating which by setting the filled bitmap), but not
3615  *	all of them make sense - see the source for which ones are possible.
3616  *	Statistics that the driver doesn't fill will be filled by mac80211.
3617  *	The callback can sleep.
3618  *
3619  * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
3620  *	bursting) for a hardware TX queue.
3621  *	Returns a negative error code on failure.
3622  *	The callback can sleep.
3623  *
3624  * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
3625  *	this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a
3626  *	required function.
3627  *	The callback can sleep.
3628  *
3629  * @set_tsf: Set the TSF timer to the specified value in the firmware/hardware.
3630  *	Currently, this is only used for IBSS mode debugging. Is not a
3631  *	required function.
3632  *	The callback can sleep.
3633  *
3634  * @offset_tsf: Offset the TSF timer by the specified value in the
3635  *	firmware/hardware.  Preferred to set_tsf as it avoids delay between
3636  *	calling set_tsf() and hardware getting programmed, which will show up
3637  *	as TSF delay. Is not a required function.
3638  *	The callback can sleep.
3639  *
3640  * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
3641  *	with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
3642  *	function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
3643  *	TSF synchronization.
3644  *	The callback can sleep.
3645  *
3646  * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
3647  *	This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
3648  *	used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
3649  *	Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon.
3650  *	The callback can sleep.
3651  *
3652  * @get_survey: Return per-channel survey information
3653  *
3654  * @rfkill_poll: Poll rfkill hardware state. If you need this, you also
3655  *	need to set wiphy->rfkill_poll to %true before registration,
3656  *	and need to call wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state() in the callback.
3657  *	The callback can sleep.
3658  *
3659  * @set_coverage_class: Set slot time for given coverage class as specified
3660  *	in IEEE 802.11-2007 section 17.3.8.6 and modify ACK timeout
3661  *	accordingly; coverage class equals to -1 to enable ACK timeout
3662  *	estimation algorithm (dynack). To disable dynack set valid value for
3663  *	coverage class. This callback is not required and may sleep.
3664  *
3665  * @testmode_cmd: Implement a cfg80211 test mode command. The passed @vif may
3666  *	be %NULL. The callback can sleep.
3667  * @testmode_dump: Implement a cfg80211 test mode dump. The callback can sleep.
3668  *
3669  * @flush: Flush all pending frames from the hardware queue, making sure
3670  *	that the hardware queues are empty. The @queues parameter is a bitmap
3671  *	of queues to flush, which is useful if different virtual interfaces
3672  *	use different hardware queues; it may also indicate all queues.
3673  *	If the parameter @drop is set to %true, pending frames may be dropped.
3674  *	Note that vif can be NULL.
3675  *	The callback can sleep.
3676  *
3677  * @channel_switch: Drivers that need (or want) to offload the channel
3678  *	switch operation for CSAs received from the AP may implement this
3679  *	callback. They must then call ieee80211_chswitch_done() to indicate
3680  *	completion of the channel switch.
3681  *
3682  * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device.
3683  *	Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may
3684  *	reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL
3685  *	(also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX).
3686  *
3687  * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant).
3688  *
3689  * @remain_on_channel: Starts an off-channel period on the given channel, must
3690  *	call back to ieee80211_ready_on_channel() when on that channel. Note
3691  *	that normal channel traffic is not stopped as this is intended for hw
3692  *	offload. Frames to transmit on the off-channel channel are transmitted
3693  *	normally except for the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN flag. When the
3694  *	duration (which will always be non-zero) expires, the driver must call
3695  *	ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired().
3696  *	Note that this callback may be called while the device is in IDLE and
3697  *	must be accepted in this case.
3698  *	This callback may sleep.
3699  * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Requests that an ongoing off-channel period is
3700  *	aborted before it expires. This callback may sleep.
3701  *
3702  * @set_ringparam: Set tx and rx ring sizes.
3703  *
3704  * @get_ringparam: Get tx and rx ring current and maximum sizes.
3705  *
3706  * @tx_frames_pending: Check if there is any pending frame in the hardware
3707  *	queues before entering power save.
3708  *
3709  * @set_bitrate_mask: Set a mask of rates to be used for rate control selection
3710  *	when transmitting a frame. Currently only legacy rates are handled.
3711  *	The callback can sleep.
3712  * @event_callback: Notify driver about any event in mac80211. See
3713  *	&enum ieee80211_event_type for the different types.
3714  *	The callback must be atomic.
3715  *
3716  * @release_buffered_frames: Release buffered frames according to the given
3717  *	parameters. In the case where the driver buffers some frames for
3718  *	sleeping stations mac80211 will use this callback to tell the driver
3719  *	to release some frames, either for PS-poll or uAPSD.
3720  *	Note that if the @more_data parameter is %false the driver must check
3721  *	if there are more frames on the given TIDs, and if there are more than
3722  *	the frames being released then it must still set the more-data bit in
3723  *	the frame. If the @more_data parameter is %true, then of course the
3724  *	more-data bit must always be set.
3725  *	The @tids parameter tells the driver which TIDs to release frames
3726  *	from, for PS-poll it will always have only a single bit set.
3727  *	In the case this is used for a PS-poll initiated release, the
3728  *	@num_frames parameter will always be 1 so code can be shared. In
3729  *	this case the driver must also set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
3730  *	on the TX status (and must report TX status) so that the PS-poll
3731  *	period is properly ended. This is used to avoid sending multiple
3732  *	responses for a retried PS-poll frame.
3733  *	In the case this is used for uAPSD, the @num_frames parameter may be
3734  *	bigger than one, but the driver may send fewer frames (it must send
3735  *	at least one, however). In this case it is also responsible for
3736  *	setting the EOSP flag in the QoS header of the frames. Also, when the
3737  *	service period ends, the driver must set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP
3738  *	on the last frame in the SP. Alternatively, it may call the function
3739  *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() to inform mac80211 of the end of the SP.
3740  *	This callback must be atomic.
3741  * @allow_buffered_frames: Prepare device to allow the given number of frames
3742  *	to go out to the given station. The frames will be sent by mac80211
3743  *	via the usual TX path after this call. The TX information for frames
3744  *	released will also have the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER flag set
3745  *	and the last one will also have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set. In case
3746  *	frames from multiple TIDs are released and the driver might reorder
3747  *	them between the TIDs, it must set the %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
3748  *	on the last frame and clear it on all others and also handle the EOSP
3749  *	bit in the QoS header correctly. Alternatively, it can also call the
3750  *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() function.
3751  *	The @tids parameter is a bitmap and tells the driver which TIDs the
3752  *	frames will be on; it will at most have two bits set.
3753  *	This callback must be atomic.
3754  *
3755  * @get_et_sset_count:  Ethtool API to get string-set count.
3756  *
3757  * @get_et_stats:  Ethtool API to get a set of u64 stats.
3758  *
3759  * @get_et_strings:  Ethtool API to get a set of strings to describe stats
3760  *	and perhaps other supported types of ethtool data-sets.
3761  *
3762  * @mgd_prepare_tx: Prepare for transmitting a management frame for association
3763  *	before associated. In multi-channel scenarios, a virtual interface is
3764  *	bound to a channel before it is associated, but as it isn't associated
3765  *	yet it need not necessarily be given airtime, in particular since any
3766  *	transmission to a P2P GO needs to be synchronized against the GO's
3767  *	powersave state. mac80211 will call this function before transmitting a
3768  *	management frame prior to having successfully associated to allow the
3769  *	driver to give it channel time for the transmission, to get a response
3770  *	and to be able to synchronize with the GO.
3771  *	For drivers that set %IEEE80211_HW_DEAUTH_NEED_MGD_TX_PREP, mac80211
3772  *	would also call this function before transmitting a deauthentication
3773  *	frame in case that no beacon was heard from the AP/P2P GO.
3774  *	The callback will be called before each transmission and upon return
3775  *	mac80211 will transmit the frame right away.
3776  *	Additional information is passed in the &struct ieee80211_prep_tx_info
3777  *	data. If duration there is greater than zero, mac80211 hints to the
3778  *	driver the duration for which the operation is requested.
3779  *	The callback is optional and can (should!) sleep.
3780  * @mgd_complete_tx: Notify the driver that the response frame for a previously
3781  *	transmitted frame announced with @mgd_prepare_tx was received, the data
3782  *	is filled similarly to @mgd_prepare_tx though the duration is not used.
3783  *
3784  * @mgd_protect_tdls_discover: Protect a TDLS discovery session. After sending
3785  *	a TDLS discovery-request, we expect a reply to arrive on the AP's
3786  *	channel. We must stay on the channel (no PSM, scan, etc.), since a TDLS
3787  *	setup-response is a direct packet not buffered by the AP.
3788  *	mac80211 will call this function just before the transmission of a TDLS
3789  *	discovery-request. The recommended period of protection is at least
3790  *	2 * (DTIM period).
3791  *	The callback is optional and can sleep.
3792  *
3793  * @add_chanctx: Notifies device driver about new channel context creation.
3794  *	This callback may sleep.
3795  * @remove_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context destruction.
3796  *	This callback may sleep.
3797  * @change_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context changes that
3798  *	may happen when combining different virtual interfaces on the same
3799  *	channel context with different settings
3800  *	This callback may sleep.
3801  * @assign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being bound
3802  *	to vif. Possible use is for hw queue remapping.
3803  *	This callback may sleep.
3804  * @unassign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being
3805  *	unbound from vif.
3806  *	This callback may sleep.
3807  * @switch_vif_chanctx: switch a number of vifs from one chanctx to
3808  *	another, as specified in the list of
3809  *	@ieee80211_vif_chanctx_switch passed to the driver, according
3810  *	to the mode defined in &ieee80211_chanctx_switch_mode.
3811  *	This callback may sleep.
3812  *
3813  * @start_ap: Start operation on the AP interface, this is called after all the
3814  *	information in bss_conf is set and beacon can be retrieved. A channel
3815  *	context is bound before this is called. Note that if the driver uses
3816  *	software scan or ROC, this (and @stop_ap) isn't called when the AP is
3817  *	just "paused" for scanning/ROC, which is indicated by the beacon being
3818  *	disabled/enabled via @bss_info_changed.
3819  * @stop_ap: Stop operation on the AP interface.
3820  *
3821  * @reconfig_complete: Called after a call to ieee80211_restart_hw() and
3822  *	during resume, when the reconfiguration has completed.
3823  *	This can help the driver implement the reconfiguration step (and
3824  *	indicate mac80211 is ready to receive frames).
3825  *	This callback may sleep.
3826  *
3827  * @ipv6_addr_change: IPv6 address assignment on the given interface changed.
3828  *	Currently, this is only called for managed or P2P client interfaces.
3829  *	This callback is optional; it must not sleep.
3830  *
3831  * @channel_switch_beacon: Starts a channel switch to a new channel.
3832  *	Beacons are modified to include CSA or ECSA IEs before calling this
3833  *	function. The corresponding count fields in these IEs must be
3834  *	decremented, and when they reach 1 the driver must call
3835  *	ieee80211_csa_finish(). Drivers which use ieee80211_beacon_get()
3836  *	get the csa counter decremented by mac80211, but must check if it is
3837  *	1 using ieee80211_beacon_counter_is_complete() after the beacon has been
3838  *	transmitted and then call ieee80211_csa_finish().
3839  *	If the CSA count starts as zero or 1, this function will not be called,
3840  *	since there won't be any time to beacon before the switch anyway.
3841  * @pre_channel_switch: This is an optional callback that is called
3842  *	before a channel switch procedure is started (ie. when a STA
3843  *	gets a CSA or a userspace initiated channel-switch), allowing
3844  *	the driver to prepare for the channel switch.
3845  * @post_channel_switch: This is an optional callback that is called
3846  *	after a channel switch procedure is completed, allowing the
3847  *	driver to go back to a normal configuration.
3848  * @abort_channel_switch: This is an optional callback that is called
3849  *	when channel switch procedure was completed, allowing the
3850  *	driver to go back to a normal configuration.
3851  * @channel_switch_rx_beacon: This is an optional callback that is called
3852  *	when channel switch procedure is in progress and additional beacon with
3853  *	CSA IE was received, allowing driver to track changes in count.
3854  * @join_ibss: Join an IBSS (on an IBSS interface); this is called after all
3855  *	information in bss_conf is set up and the beacon can be retrieved. A
3856  *	channel context is bound before this is called.
3857  * @leave_ibss: Leave the IBSS again.
3858  *
3859  * @get_expected_throughput: extract the expected throughput towards the
3860  *	specified station. The returned value is expressed in Kbps. It returns 0
3861  *	if the RC algorithm does not have proper data to provide.
3862  *
3863  * @get_txpower: get current maximum tx power (in dBm) based on configuration
3864  *	and hardware limits.
3865  *
3866  * @tdls_channel_switch: Start channel-switching with a TDLS peer. The driver
3867  *	is responsible for continually initiating channel-switching operations
3868  *	and returning to the base channel for communication with the AP. The
3869  *	driver receives a channel-switch request template and the location of
3870  *	the switch-timing IE within the template as part of the invocation.
3871  *	The template is valid only within the call, and the driver can
3872  *	optionally copy the skb for further re-use.
3873  * @tdls_cancel_channel_switch: Stop channel-switching with a TDLS peer. Both
3874  *	peers must be on the base channel when the call completes.
3875  * @tdls_recv_channel_switch: a TDLS channel-switch related frame (request or
3876  *	response) has been received from a remote peer. The driver gets
3877  *	parameters parsed from the incoming frame and may use them to continue
3878  *	an ongoing channel-switch operation. In addition, a channel-switch
3879  *	response template is provided, together with the location of the
3880  *	switch-timing IE within the template. The skb can only be used within
3881  *	the function call.
3882  *
3883  * @wake_tx_queue: Called when new packets have been added to the queue.
3884  * @sync_rx_queues: Process all pending frames in RSS queues. This is a
3885  *	synchronization which is needed in case driver has in its RSS queues
3886  *	pending frames that were received prior to the control path action
3887  *	currently taken (e.g. disassociation) but are not processed yet.
3888  *
3889  * @start_nan: join an existing NAN cluster, or create a new one.
3890  * @stop_nan: leave the NAN cluster.
3891  * @nan_change_conf: change NAN configuration. The data in cfg80211_nan_conf
3892  *	contains full new configuration and changes specify which parameters
3893  *	are changed with respect to the last NAN config.
3894  *	The driver gets both full configuration and the changed parameters since
3895  *	some devices may need the full configuration while others need only the
3896  *	changed parameters.
3897  * @add_nan_func: Add a NAN function. Returns 0 on success. The data in
3898  *	cfg80211_nan_func must not be referenced outside the scope of
3899  *	this call.
3900  * @del_nan_func: Remove a NAN function. The driver must call
3901  *	ieee80211_nan_func_terminated() with
3902  *	NL80211_NAN_FUNC_TERM_REASON_USER_REQUEST reason code upon removal.
3903  * @can_aggregate_in_amsdu: Called in order to determine if HW supports
3904  *	aggregating two specific frames in the same A-MSDU. The relation
3905  *	between the skbs should be symmetric and transitive. Note that while
3906  *	skb is always a real frame, head may or may not be an A-MSDU.
3907  * @get_ftm_responder_stats: Retrieve FTM responder statistics, if available.
3908  *	Statistics should be cumulative, currently no way to reset is provided.
3909  *
3910  * @start_pmsr: start peer measurement (e.g. FTM) (this call can sleep)
3911  * @abort_pmsr: abort peer measurement (this call can sleep)
3912  * @set_tid_config: Apply TID specific configurations. This callback may sleep.
3913  * @reset_tid_config: Reset TID specific configuration for the peer.
3914  *	This callback may sleep.
3915  * @update_vif_offload: Update virtual interface offload flags
3916  *	This callback may sleep.
3917  * @sta_set_4addr: Called to notify the driver when a station starts/stops using
3918  *	4-address mode
3919  * @set_sar_specs: Update the SAR (TX power) settings.
3920  * @sta_set_decap_offload: Called to notify the driver when a station is allowed
3921  *	to use rx decapsulation offload

4051 	 * possible with a buf_size of 8:
4052 	 *
4053 	 * - ``TX: 1.....7``
4054 	 * - ``RX:  2....7`` (lost frame #1)
4055 	 * - ``TX:        8..1...``
4056 	 *
4057 	 * which is invalid since #1 was now re-transmitted well past the
4058 	 * buffer size of 8. Correct ways to retransmit #1 would be:
4059 	 *
4060 	 * - ``TX:        1   or``
4061 	 * - ``TX:        18  or``
4062 	 * - ``TX:        81``
4063 	 *
4064 	 * Even ``189`` would be wrong since 1 could be lost again.
4065 	 *
4066 	 * Returns a negative error code on failure. The driver may return
