25  * DOC: Introduction
26  *
27  * mac80211 is the Linux stack for 802.11 hardware that implements
28  * only partial functionality in hard- or firmware. This document
29  * defines the interface between mac80211 and low-level hardware
30  * drivers.

34  * DOC: Calling mac80211 from interrupts
35  *
36  * Only ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe() and ieee80211_rx_irqsafe() can be
37  * called in hardware interrupt context. The low-level driver must not call any
38  * other functions in hardware interrupt context. If there is a need for such
39  * call, the low-level driver should first ACK the interrupt and perform the
40  * IEEE 802.11 code call after this, e.g. from a scheduled workqueue or even
41  * tasklet function.
42  *
43  * NOTE: If the driver opts to use the _irqsafe() functions, it may not also
44  *	 use the non-IRQ-safe functions!

54 /**
55  * DOC: Frame format
56  *
57  * As a general rule, when frames are passed between mac80211 and the driver,
58  * they start with the IEEE 802.11 header and include the same octets that are
59  * sent over the air except for the FCS which should be calculated by the
60  * hardware.
61  *
62  * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features:
63  *
64  * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload
65  * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware.
66  *
67  * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to
68  * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU.

437  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_INJECTED: Frame was injected, internal to mac80211.
438  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED: The frame was not transmitted
439  *	because the destination STA was in powersave mode. Note that to
440  *	avoid race conditions, the filter must be set by the hardware or
441  *	firmware upon receiving a frame that indicates that the station
442  *	went to sleep (must be done on device to filter frames already on
443  *	the queue) and may only be unset after mac80211 gives the OK for
444  *	that by setting the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT (see above),
445  *	since only then is it guaranteed that no more frames are in the
446  *	hardware queue.
447  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK: Frame was acknowledged
448  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU: The frame was aggregated, so status
449  * 	is for the whole aggregation.
450  * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU_NO_BACK: no block ack was returned,
451  * 	so consider using block ack request (BAR).
452  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_RATE_CTRL_PROBE: internal to mac80211, can be
453  *	set by rate control algorithms to indicate probe rate, will
454  *	be cleared for fragmented frames (except on the last fragment)
455  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_OFFCHAN_TX_OK: Internal to mac80211. Used to indicate
456  *	that a frame can be transmitted while the queues are stopped for
457  *	off-channel operation.
458  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NEED_TXPROCESSING: completely internal to mac80211,
459  *	used to indicate that a pending frame requires TX processing before
460  *	it can be sent out.
461  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRIED: completely internal to mac80211,
462  *	used to indicate that a frame was already retried due to PS
463  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT: completely internal to mac80211,
464  *	used to indicate frame should not be encrypted
465  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER: This frame is a response to a poll
466  *	frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD) or a non-bufferable MMPDU and must
467  *	be sent although the station is in powersave mode.
468  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES: More frames will be passed to the
469  *	transmit function after the current frame, this can be used
470  *	by drivers to kick the DMA queue only if unset or when the
471  *	queue gets full.
472  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRANSMISSION: This frame is being retransmitted
473  *	after TX status because the destination was asleep, it must not
474  *	be modified again (no seqno assignment, crypto, etc.)
475  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_MLME_CONN_TX: This frame was transmitted by the MLME
476  *	code for connection establishment, this indicates that its status
477  *	should kick the MLME state machine.
478  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NL80211_FRAME_TX: Frame was requested through nl80211
479  *	MLME command (internal to mac80211 to figure out whether to send TX
480  *	status to user space)
481  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_LDPC: tells the driver to use LDPC for this frame
482  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_STBC: Enables Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) for this
483  *	frame and selects the maximum number of streams that it can use.
484  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN: Marks this packet to be transmitted on
485  *	the off-channel channel when a remain-on-channel offload is done
486  *	in hardware -- normal packets still flow and are expected to be
487  *	handled properly by the device.
488  * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_TKIP_MIC_FAILURE: Marks this packet to be used for TKIP
489  *	testing. It will be sent out with incorrect Michael MIC key to allow
490  *	TKIP countermeasures to be tested.
491  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_CCK_RATE: This frame will be sent at non CCK rate.
492  *	This flag is actually used for management frame especially for P2P
493  *	frames not being sent at CCK rate in 2GHz band.
494  * @IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP: This packet marks the end of service period,
495  *	when its status is reported the service period ends. For frames in
496  *	an SP that mac80211 transmits, it is already set; for driver frames
497  *	the driver may set this flag. It is also used to do the same for
498  *	PS-Poll responses.
499  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_USE_MINRATE: This frame will be sent at lowest rate.
500  *	This flag is used to send nullfunc frame at minimum rate when
501  *	the nullfunc is used for connection monitoring purpose.
502  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_DONTFRAG: Don't fragment this packet even if it
503  *	would be fragmented by size (this is optional, only used for
504  *	monitor injection).
505  * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_PS_RESPONSE: This frame is a response to a poll
506  *	frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD).
507  *
508  * Note: If you have to add new flags to the enumeration, then don't
509  *	 forget to update %IEEE80211_TX_TEMPORARY_FLAGS when necessary.

820  * These flags are used with the @flag member of &struct ieee80211_rx_status.
821  * @RX_FLAG_MMIC_ERROR: Michael MIC error was reported on this frame.
822  *	Use together with %RX_FLAG_MMIC_STRIPPED.
823  * @RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED: This frame was decrypted in hardware.
824  * @RX_FLAG_MMIC_STRIPPED: the Michael MIC is stripped off this frame,
825  *	verification has been done by the hardware.
826  * @RX_FLAG_IV_STRIPPED: The IV/ICV are stripped from this frame.
827  *	If this flag is set, the stack cannot do any replay detection
828  *	hence the driver or hardware will have to do that.
829  * @RX_FLAG_FAILED_FCS_CRC: Set this flag if the FCS check failed on
830  *	the frame.
831  * @RX_FLAG_FAILED_PLCP_CRC: Set this flag if the PCLP check failed on
832  *	the frame.
833  * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_START: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
834  *	field) is valid and contains the time the first symbol of the MPDU
835  *	was received. This is useful in monitor mode and for proper IBSS
836  *	merging.
837  * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_END: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
838  *	field) is valid and contains the time the last symbol of the MPDU
839  *	(including FCS) was received.
840  * @RX_FLAG_SHORTPRE: Short preamble was used for this frame
841  * @RX_FLAG_HT: HT MCS was used and rate_idx is MCS index
842  * @RX_FLAG_VHT: VHT MCS was used and rate_index is MCS index
843  * @RX_FLAG_40MHZ: HT40 (40 MHz) was used
844  * @RX_FLAG_SHORT_GI: Short guard interval was used
845  * @RX_FLAG_NO_SIGNAL_VAL: The signal strength value is not present.
846  *	Valid only for data frames (mainly A-MPDU)
847  * @RX_FLAG_HT_GF: This frame was received in a HT-greenfield transmission, if
848  *	the driver fills this value it should add %IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_MCS_HAVE_FMT
849  *	to hw.radiotap_mcs_details to advertise that fact
850  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DETAILS: A-MPDU details are known, in particular the reference
851  *	number (@ampdu_reference) must be populated and be a distinct number for
852  *	each A-MPDU
853  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_REPORT_ZEROLEN: driver reports 0-length subframes
854  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_IS_ZEROLEN: This is a zero-length subframe, for
855  *	monitoring purposes only
856  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_LAST_KNOWN: last subframe is known, should be set on all
857  *	subframes of a single A-MPDU
858  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_IS_LAST: this subframe is the last subframe of the A-MPDU
859  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DELIM_CRC_ERROR: A delimiter CRC error has been detected
860  *	on this subframe
861  * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DELIM_CRC_KNOWN: The delimiter CRC field is known (the CRC
862  *	is stored in the @ampdu_delimiter_crc field)
863  * @RX_FLAG_LDPC: LDPC was used
864  * @RX_FLAG_STBC_MASK: STBC 2 bit bitmask. 1 - Nss=1, 2 - Nss=2, 3 - Nss=3
865  * @RX_FLAG_10MHZ: 10 MHz (half channel) was used
866  * @RX_FLAG_5MHZ: 5 MHz (quarter channel) was used
867  * @RX_FLAG_AMSDU_MORE: Some drivers may prefer to report separate A-MSDU
868  *	subframes instead of a one huge frame for performance reasons.
869  *	All, but the last MSDU from an A-MSDU should have this flag set. E.g.
870  *	if an A-MSDU has 3 frames, the first 2 must have the flag set, while
871  *	the 3rd (last) one must not have this flag set. The flag is used to
872  *	deal with retransmission/duplication recovery properly since A-MSDU
873  *	subframes share the same sequence number. Reported subframes can be
874  *	either regular MSDU or singly A-MSDUs. Subframes must not be
875  *	interleaved with other frames.

1469  * @IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL:
1470  *	The hardware or firmware includes rate control, and cannot be
1471  *	controlled by the stack. As such, no rate control algorithm
1472  *	should be instantiated, and the TX rate reported to userspace

1487  *	Some wireless LAN chipsets buffer broadcast/multicast frames
1488  *	for power saving stations in the hardware/firmware and others
1489  *	rely on the host system for such buffering. This option is used

1563  *	only in that case.
1564  *
1565  * @IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS: When operating in AP mode the device
1566  *	autonomously manages the PS status of connected stations. When
1567  *	this flag is set mac80211 will not trigger PS mode for connected
1568  *	stations based on the PM bit of incoming frames.

1571  *
1572  * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_AMPDU_SETUP_IN_HW: The device handles TX A-MPDU session
1573  *	setup strictly in HW. mac80211 should not attempt to do this in
1574  *	software.
1575  *
1576  * @IEEE80211_HW_WANT_MONITOR_VIF: The driver would like to be informed of
1577  *	a virtual monitor interface when monitor interfaces are the only
1578  *	active interfaces.
1579  *
1580  * @IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL: The driver wants to control per-interface
1581  *	queue mapping in order to use different queues (not just one per AC)

1583  *	control for more details.
1584  *
1585  * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_RC_TABLE: The driver supports using a rate
1586  *	selection table provided by the rate control algorithm.
1587  *
1588  * @IEEE80211_HW_P2P_DEV_ADDR_FOR_INTF: Use the P2P Device address for any

1599  * @IEEE80211_HW_CHANCTX_STA_CSA: Support 802.11h based channel-switch (CSA)

1603  *
1604  * @IEEE80211_HW_CHANGE_RUNNING_CHANCTX: The hardware can change a
1605  *	channel context on-the-fly.  This is needed for channel switch

1842  *
1843  * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware

1845  *
1846  * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1847  * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
1848  * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1849  * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1850  * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
1851  * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1852  * VLANs are configured for an access point.
1853  *
1854  * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1855  * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1856  * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1857  *
1858  * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1859  * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1860  * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
1861  * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
1862  *
1863  * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
1864  *
1865  * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
1866  * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
1867  * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
1868  * based on the receive flags.
1869  *
1870  * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
1871  * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
1872  * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
1873  * keys.
1874  *
1875  * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
1876  * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
1877  * handler.
1878  * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
1879  * This happens every time the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
1880  * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
1881  * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
1882  * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
1883  * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.
1884  *
1885  * The set_default_unicast_key() call updates the default WEP key index

1887  * for devices that support offload of data packets (e.g. ARP responses).

1890 /**
1891  * DOC: Powersave support
1892  *
1893  * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
1894  *
1895  * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
1896  * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
1897  * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
1898  * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
1899  * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
1900  * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
1901  * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
1902  * it finds traffic directed to it.
1903  *
1904  * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
1905  * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
1906  * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
1907  * up the hardware before issuing commands to the hardware and putting it
1908  * back to sleep at appropriate times.
1909  *
1910  * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
1911  * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
1912  * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
1913  *
1914  * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1915  * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1916  * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1917  * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
1918  * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
1919  * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
1920  * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
1921  *
1922  * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
1923  * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
1924  * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
1925  * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
1926  * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
1927  * periods.
1928  *
1929  * Dynamic powersave is simply supported by mac80211 enabling and disabling
1930  * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1931  * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
1932  * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
1933  * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
1934  * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
1935  * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
1936  * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
1937  * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
1938  * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
1939  *
1940  * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
1941  * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
1942  * uapsd parameter in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
1943  * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
1944  * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
1945  * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.
1946  *
1947  * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with
1948  * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK.

1951 /**
1952  * DOC: Beacon filter support
1953  *
1954  * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1955  * which will reduce system power consumption. It usually works so that
1956  * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1957  * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
1958  * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
1959  * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1960  * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1961  *
1962  * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER
1963  * interface capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
1964  * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
1965  * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
1966  * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
1967  *
1968  * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
1969  * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
1970  * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
1971  * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
1972  *
1973  * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
1974  * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
1975  * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
1976  * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
1977  *  - a list of information element IDs
1978  *  - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
1979  *
1980  * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
1981  * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
1982  * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
1983  * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
1984  * vendor information elements.
1985  *
1986  * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
1987  * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
1988  *
1989  * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
1990  * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
1991  * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
1992  * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
1993  * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
1994  * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
1995  *
1996  *
1997  * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
1998  * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
1999  * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
2000  * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
2001  * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
2002  * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
2003  * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
2004  * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
2005  *
2006  * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
2007  * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
2008  * signal strength threshold checking.

2037  * DOC: Frame filtering
2038  *
2039  * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
2040  * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
2041  * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
2042  * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
2043  * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
2044  *
2045  * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
2046  * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
2047  * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
2048  *
2049  * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
2050  * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
2051  * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
2052  * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
2053  * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
2054  * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
2055  * @total_flags with the new flag states.
2056  *
2057  * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
2058  * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
2059  * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
2060  * or dropped.
2061  *
2062  * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
2063  * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
2064  * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
2065  * the flag, but not clear it.
2066  * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
2067  * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
2068  * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
2069  * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
2070  * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
2071  * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
2072  * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
2073  * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.

2076 /**
2077  * DOC: AP support for powersaving clients
2078  *
2079  * In order to implement AP and P2P GO modes, mac80211 has support for
2080  * client powersaving, both "legacy" PS (PS-Poll/null data) and uAPSD.
2081  * There currently is no support for sAPSD.
2082  *
2083  * There is one assumption that mac80211 makes, namely that a client
2084  * will not poll with PS-Poll and trigger with uAPSD at the same time.
2085  * Both are supported, and both can be used by the same client, but
2086  * they can't be used concurrently by the same client. This simplifies
2087  * the driver code.
2088  *
2089  * The first thing to keep in mind is that there is a flag for complete
2090  * driver implementation: %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS. If this flag is set,
2091  * mac80211 expects the driver to handle most of the state machine for
2092  * powersaving clients and will ignore the PM bit in incoming frames.
2093  * Drivers then use ieee80211_sta_ps_transition() to inform mac80211 of
2094  * stations' powersave transitions. In this mode, mac80211 also doesn't
2095  * handle PS-Poll/uAPSD.
2096  *
2097  * In the mode without %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS, mac80211 will check the
2098  * PM bit in incoming frames for client powersave transitions. When a
2099  * station goes to sleep, we will stop transmitting to it. There is,
2100  * however, a race condition: a station might go to sleep while there is
2101  * data buffered on hardware queues. If the device has support for this
2102  * it will reject frames, and the driver should give the frames back to
2103  * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED flag set which will
2104  * cause mac80211 to retry the frame when the station wakes up. The
2105  * driver is also notified of powersave transitions by calling its
2106  * @sta_notify callback.
2107  *
2108  * When the station is asleep, it has three choices: it can wake up,
2109  * it can PS-Poll, or it can possibly start a uAPSD service period.
2110  * Waking up is implemented by simply transmitting all buffered (and
2111  * filtered) frames to the station. This is the easiest case. When
2112  * the station sends a PS-Poll or a uAPSD trigger frame, mac80211
2113  * will inform the driver of this with the @allow_buffered_frames
2114  * callback; this callback is optional. mac80211 will then transmit
2115  * the frames as usual and set the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER
2116  * on each frame. The last frame in the service period (or the only
2117  * response to a PS-Poll) also has %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set to
2118  * indicate that it ends the service period; as this frame must have
2119  * TX status report it also sets %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS.
2120  * When TX status is reported for this frame, the service period is
2121  * marked has having ended and a new one can be started by the peer.
2122  *
2123  * Additionally, non-bufferable MMPDUs can also be transmitted by
2124  * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER set in them.
2125  *
2126  * Another race condition can happen on some devices like iwlwifi
2127  * when there are frames queued for the station and it wakes up
2128  * or polls; the frames that are already queued could end up being
2129  * transmitted first instead, causing reordering and/or wrong
2130  * processing of the EOSP. The cause is that allowing frames to be
2131  * transmitted to a certain station is out-of-band communication to
2132  * the device. To allow this problem to be solved, the driver can
2133  * call ieee80211_sta_block_awake() if frames are buffered when it
2134  * is notified that the station went to sleep. When all these frames
2135  * have been filtered (see above), it must call the function again
2136  * to indicate that the station is no longer blocked.
2137  *
2138  * If the driver buffers frames in the driver for aggregation in any
2139  * way, it must use the ieee80211_sta_set_buffered() call when it is
2140  * notified of the station going to sleep to inform mac80211 of any
2141  * TIDs that have frames buffered. Note that when a station wakes up
2142  * this information is reset (hence the requirement to call it when
2143  * informed of the station going to sleep). Then, when a service
2144  * period starts for any reason, @release_buffered_frames is called
2145  * with the number of frames to be released and which TIDs they are
2146  * to come from. In this case, the driver is responsible for setting
2147  * the EOSP (for uAPSD) and MORE_DATA bits in the released frames,
2148  * to help the @more_data parameter is passed to tell the driver if
2149  * there is more data on other TIDs -- the TIDs to release frames
2150  * from are ignored since mac80211 doesn't know how many frames the
2151  * buffers for those TIDs contain.
2152  *
2153  * If the driver also implement GO mode, where absence periods may
2154  * shorten service periods (or abort PS-Poll responses), it must
2155  * filter those response frames except in the case of frames that
2156  * are buffered in the driver -- those must remain buffered to avoid
2157  * reordering. Because it is possible that no frames are released
2158  * in this case, the driver must call ieee80211_sta_eosp()
2159  * to indicate to mac80211 that the service period ended anyway.
2160  *
2161  * Finally, if frames from multiple TIDs are released from mac80211
2162  * but the driver might reorder them, it must clear & set the flags
2163  * appropriately (only the last frame may have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP)
2164  * and also take care of the EOSP and MORE_DATA bits in the frame.
2165  * The driver may also use ieee80211_sta_eosp() in this case.
2166  *
2167  * Note that if the driver ever buffers frames other than QoS-data
2168  * frames, it must take care to never send a non-QoS-data frame as
2169  * the last frame in a service period, adding a QoS-nulldata frame
2170  * after a non-QoS-data frame if needed.

2173 /**
2174  * DOC: HW queue control
2175  *
2176  * Before HW queue control was introduced, mac80211 only had a single static
2177  * assignment of per-interface AC software queues to hardware queues. This
2178  * was problematic for a few reasons:
2179  * 1) off-channel transmissions might get stuck behind other frames
2180  * 2) multiple virtual interfaces couldn't be handled correctly
2181  * 3) after-DTIM frames could get stuck behind other frames
2182  *
2183  * To solve this, hardware typically uses multiple different queues for all
2184  * the different usages, and this needs to be propagated into mac80211 so it
2185  * won't have the same problem with the software queues.
2186  *
2187  * Therefore, mac80211 now offers the %IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL capability
2188  * flag that tells it that the driver implements its own queue control. To do
2189  * so, the driver will set up the various queues in each &struct ieee80211_vif
2190  * and the offchannel queue in &struct ieee80211_hw. In response, mac80211 will
2191  * use those queue IDs in the hw_queue field of &struct ieee80211_tx_info and
2192  * if necessary will queue the frame on the right software queue that mirrors
2193  * the hardware queue.
2194  * Additionally, the driver has to then use these HW queue IDs for the queue
2195  * management functions (ieee80211_stop_queue() et al.)
2196  *
2197  * The driver is free to set up the queue mappings as needed, multiple virtual
2198  * interfaces may map to the same hardware queues if needed. The setup has to
2199  * happen during add_interface or change_interface callbacks. For example, a
2200  * driver supporting station+station and station+AP modes might decide to have
2201  * 10 hardware queues to handle different scenarios:
2202  *
2203  * 4 AC HW queues for 1st vif: 0, 1, 2, 3
2204  * 4 AC HW queues for 2nd vif: 4, 5, 6, 7
2205  * after-DTIM queue for AP:   8
2206  * off-channel queue:         9
2207  *
2208  * It would then set up the hardware like this:
2209  *   hw.offchannel_tx_hw_queue = 9
2210  *
2211  * and the first virtual interface that is added as follows:
2212  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VO] = 0
2213  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VI] = 1
2214  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BE] = 2
2215  *   vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BK] = 3
2216  *   vif.cab_queue = 8 // if AP mode, otherwise %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2217  * and the second virtual interface with 4-7.
2218  *
2219  * If queue 6 gets full, for example, mac80211 would only stop the second
2220  * virtual interface's BE queue since virtual interface queues are per AC.
2221  *
2222  * Note that the vif.cab_queue value should be set to %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2223  * whenever the queue is not used (i.e. the interface is not in AP mode) if the
2224  * queue could potentially be shared since mac80211 will look at cab_queue when
2225  * a queue is stopped/woken even if the interface is not in AP mode.

2392  *	May be called right after add_interface if that rejects

2422  *	the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
2423  *	interface is given in the conf parameter.
2424  *	The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
2425  *	negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
2426  *	Must be implemented and can sleep.
2427  *
2428  * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback
2429  *	is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be
2430  *	switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep.
2431  *	Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be
2432  *	found by the interface iteration callbacks.
2433  *
2434  * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
2435  *	The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
2436  *	and no monitor interfaces are present.
2437  *	When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
2438  *	must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
2439  *	the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
2440  *	MAC address of the device going away.
2441  *	Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.
2442  *
2443  * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
2444  *	function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
2445  *	This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
2446  *	if it does. The callback can sleep.
2447  *
2448  * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
2449  *	parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
2450  *	level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
2451  *	This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
2452  *	for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
2453  *	of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback
2454  *	can sleep.
2455  *
2456  * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration.
2457  *	This callback is optional, and its return value is passed
2458  *	to configure_filter(). This callback must be atomic.
2459  *
2460  * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
2461  *	See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
2462  *	This callback must be implemented and can sleep.
2463  *
2464  * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
2465  * 	must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
2466  *
2467  * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2468  *	This callback is only called between add_interface and
2469  *	remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
2470  *	is enabled.
2471  *	Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
2472  *	The callback can sleep.
2473  *
2474  * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2475  * 	This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
2476  * 	which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
2477  *	The callback must be atomic.
2478  *
2479  * @set_rekey_data: If the device supports GTK rekeying, for example while the
2480  *	host is suspended, it can assign this callback to retrieve the data
2481  *	necessary to do GTK rekeying, this is the KEK, KCK and replay counter.
2482  *	After rekeying was done it should (for example during resume) notify
2483  *	userspace of the new replay counter using ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify().
2484  *
2485  * @set_default_unicast_key: Set the default (unicast) key index, useful for
2486  *	WEP when the device sends data packets autonomously, e.g. for ARP
2487  *	offloading. The index can be 0-3, or -1 for unsetting it.
2488  *
2489  * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
2490  *	the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
2491  *	configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
2492  *	registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
2493  *	that power save is disabled.
2494  *	The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
2495  *	entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
2496  *	at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
2497  *	(extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
2498  *	When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
2499  *	note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
2500  *	any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
2501  *	The callback can sleep.
2502  *
2503  * @cancel_hw_scan: Ask the low-level tp cancel the active hw scan.
2504  *	The driver should ask the hardware to cancel the scan (if possible),
2505  *	but the scan will be completed only after the driver will call
2506  *	ieee80211_scan_completed().
2507  *	This callback is needed for wowlan, to prevent enqueueing a new
2508  *	scan_work after the low-level driver was already suspended.
2509  *	The callback can sleep.
2510  *
2511  * @sched_scan_start: Ask the hardware to start scanning repeatedly at
2512  *	specific intervals.  The driver must call the
2513  *	ieee80211_sched_scan_results() function whenever it finds results.
2514  *	This process will continue until sched_scan_stop is called.
2515  *
2516  * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the hardware to stop an ongoing scheduled scan.
2517  *	In this case, ieee80211_sched_scan_stopped() must not be called.
2518  *
2519  * @sw_scan_start: Notifier function that is called just before a software scan
2520  *	is started. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
2521  *	The callback can sleep.
2522  *
2523  * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a
2524  *	software scan finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need
2525  *	this notification.
2526  *	The callback can sleep.
2527  *
2528  * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
2529  * 	Returns zero if statistics are available.
2530  *	The callback can sleep.
2531  *
2532  * @get_tkip_seq: If your device implements TKIP encryption in hardware this
2533  *	callback should be provided to read the TKIP transmit IVs (both IV32
2534  *	and IV16) for the given key from hardware.
2535  *	The callback must be atomic.
2536  *
2537  * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this
2538  *	if the device does fragmentation by itself; if this callback is
2539  *	implemented then the stack will not do fragmentation.
2540  *	The callback can sleep.
2541  *
2542  * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
2543  *	The callback can sleep.
2544  *
2545  * @sta_add: Notifies low level driver about addition of an associated station,
2546  *	AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
2547  *
2548  * @sta_remove: Notifies low level driver about removal of an associated
2549  *	station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. Note that after the callback
2550  *	returns it isn't safe to use the pointer, not even RCU protected;
2551  *	no RCU grace period is guaranteed between returning here and freeing
2552  *	the station. See @sta_pre_rcu_remove if needed.
2553  *	This callback can sleep.
2554  *
2555  * @sta_add_debugfs: Drivers can use this callback to add debugfs files
2556  *	when a station is added to mac80211's station list. This callback
2557  *	and @sta_remove_debugfs should be within a CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS
2558  *	conditional. This callback can sleep.
2559  *
2560  * @sta_remove_debugfs: Remove the debugfs files which were added using
2561  *	@sta_add_debugfs. This callback can sleep.
2562  *
2563  * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about power state transition of an
2564  *	associated station, AP,  IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. For a VIF operating
2565  *	in AP mode, this callback will not be called when the flag
2566  *	%IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS is set. Must be atomic.
2567  *
2568  * @sta_state: Notifies low level driver about state transition of a
2569  *	station (which can be the AP, a client, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc.)
2570  *	This callback is mutually exclusive with @sta_add/@sta_remove.
2571  *	It must not fail for down transitions but may fail for transitions
2572  *	up the list of states. Also note that after the callback returns it
2573  *	isn't safe to use the pointer, not even RCU protected - no RCU grace
2574  *	period is guaranteed between returning here and freeing the station.
2575  *	See @sta_pre_rcu_remove if needed.
2576  *	The callback can sleep.
2577  *
2578  * @sta_pre_rcu_remove: Notify driver about station removal before RCU
2579  *	synchronisation. This is useful if a driver needs to have station
2580  *	pointers protected using RCU, it can then use this call to clear
2581  *	the pointers instead of waiting for an RCU grace period to elapse
2582  *	in @sta_state.
2583  *	The callback can sleep.
2584  *
2585  * @sta_rc_update: Notifies the driver of changes to the bitrates that can be
2586  *	used to transmit to the station. The changes are advertised with bits
2587  *	from &enum ieee80211_rate_control_changed and the values are reflected
2588  *	in the station data. This callback should only be used when the driver
2589  *	uses hardware rate control (%IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL) since
2590  *	otherwise the rate control algorithm is notified directly.
2591  *	Must be atomic.
2592  *
2593  * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
2594  *	bursting) for a hardware TX queue.
2595  *	Returns a negative error code on failure.
2596  *	The callback can sleep.
2597  *
2598  * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
2599  *	this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a
2600  *	required function.
2601  *	The callback can sleep.
2602  *
2603  * @set_tsf: Set the TSF timer to the specified value in the firmware/hardware.
2604  *	Currently, this is only used for IBSS mode debugging. Is not a
2605  *	required function.
2606  *	The callback can sleep.
2607  *
2608  * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
2609  *	with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
2610  *	function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
2611  *	TSF synchronization.
2612  *	The callback can sleep.
2613  *
2614  * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
2615  *	This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
2616  *	used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
2617  *	Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon.
2618  *	The callback can sleep.
2619  *
2620  * @ampdu_action: Perform a certain A-MPDU action
2621  * 	The RA/TID combination determines the destination and TID we want
2622  * 	the ampdu action to be performed for. The action is defined through
2623  * 	ieee80211_ampdu_mlme_action. Starting sequence number (@ssn)
2624  * 	is the first frame we expect to perform the action on. Notice
2625  * 	that TX/RX_STOP can pass NULL for this parameter.
2626  *	The @buf_size parameter is only valid when the action is set to
2627  *	%IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL and indicates the peer's reorder
2628  *	buffer size (number of subframes) for this session -- the driver
2629  *	may neither send aggregates containing more subframes than this
2630  *	nor send aggregates in a way that lost frames would exceed the
2631  *	buffer size. If just limiting the aggregate size, this would be
2632  *	possible with a buf_size of 8:
2633  *	 - TX: 1.....7
2634  *	 - RX:  2....7 (lost frame #1)
2635  *	 - TX:        8..1...
2636  *	which is invalid since #1 was now re-transmitted well past the
2637  *	buffer size of 8. Correct ways to retransmit #1 would be:
2638  *	 - TX:       1 or 18 or 81
2639  *	Even "189" would be wrong since 1 could be lost again.
2640  *
2641  *	Returns a negative error code on failure.
2642  *	The callback can sleep.
2643  *
2644  * @get_survey: Return per-channel survey information
2645  *
2646  * @rfkill_poll: Poll rfkill hardware state. If you need this, you also
2647  *	need to set wiphy->rfkill_poll to %true before registration,
2648  *	and need to call wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state() in the callback.
2649  *	The callback can sleep.
2650  *
2651  * @set_coverage_class: Set slot time for given coverage class as specified
2652  *	in IEEE 802.11-2007 section 17.3.8.6 and modify ACK timeout
2653  *	accordingly. This callback is not required and may sleep.
2654  *
2655  * @testmode_cmd: Implement a cfg80211 test mode command. The passed @vif may
2656  *	be %NULL. The callback can sleep.
2657  * @testmode_dump: Implement a cfg80211 test mode dump. The callback can sleep.
2658  *
2659  * @flush: Flush all pending frames from the hardware queue, making sure
2660  *	that the hardware queues are empty. The @queues parameter is a bitmap
2661  *	of queues to flush, which is useful if different virtual interfaces
2662  *	use different hardware queues; it may also indicate all queues.
2663  *	If the parameter @drop is set to %true, pending frames may be dropped.
2664  *	Note that vif can be NULL.
2665  *	The callback can sleep.
2666  *
2667  * @channel_switch: Drivers that need (or want) to offload the channel
2668  *	switch operation for CSAs received from the AP may implement this
2669  *	callback. They must then call ieee80211_chswitch_done() to indicate
2670  *	completion of the channel switch.
2671  *
2672  * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device.
2673  *	Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may
2674  *	reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL
2675  *	(also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX).
2676  *
2677  * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant).
2678  *
2679  * @remain_on_channel: Starts an off-channel period on the given channel, must
2680  *	call back to ieee80211_ready_on_channel() when on that channel. Note
2681  *	that normal channel traffic is not stopped as this is intended for hw
2682  *	offload. Frames to transmit on the off-channel channel are transmitted
2683  *	normally except for the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN flag. When the
2684  *	duration (which will always be non-zero) expires, the driver must call
2685  *	ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired().
2686  *	Note that this callback may be called while the device is in IDLE and
2687  *	must be accepted in this case.
2688  *	This callback may sleep.
2689  * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Requests that an ongoing off-channel period is
2690  *	aborted before it expires. This callback may sleep.
2691  *
2692  * @set_ringparam: Set tx and rx ring sizes.
2693  *
2694  * @get_ringparam: Get tx and rx ring current and maximum sizes.
2695  *
2696  * @tx_frames_pending: Check if there is any pending frame in the hardware
2697  *	queues before entering power save.
2698  *
2699  * @set_bitrate_mask: Set a mask of rates to be used for rate control selection
2700  *	when transmitting a frame. Currently only legacy rates are handled.
2701  *	The callback can sleep.
2702  * @rssi_callback: Notify driver when the average RSSI goes above/below
2703  *	thresholds that were registered previously. The callback can sleep.
2704  *
2705  * @release_buffered_frames: Release buffered frames according to the given
2706  *	parameters. In the case where the driver buffers some frames for
2707  *	sleeping stations mac80211 will use this callback to tell the driver
2708  *	to release some frames, either for PS-poll or uAPSD.
2709  *	Note that if the @more_data parameter is %false the driver must check
2710  *	if there are more frames on the given TIDs, and if there are more than
2711  *	the frames being released then it must still set the more-data bit in
2712  *	the frame. If the @more_data parameter is %true, then of course the
2713  *	more-data bit must always be set.
2714  *	The @tids parameter tells the driver which TIDs to release frames
2715  *	from, for PS-poll it will always have only a single bit set.
2716  *	In the case this is used for a PS-poll initiated release, the
2717  *	@num_frames parameter will always be 1 so code can be shared. In
2718  *	this case the driver must also set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
2719  *	on the TX status (and must report TX status) so that the PS-poll
2720  *	period is properly ended. This is used to avoid sending multiple
2721  *	responses for a retried PS-poll frame.
2722  *	In the case this is used for uAPSD, the @num_frames parameter may be
2723  *	bigger than one, but the driver may send fewer frames (it must send
2724  *	at least one, however). In this case it is also responsible for
2725  *	setting the EOSP flag in the QoS header of the frames. Also, when the
2726  *	service period ends, the driver must set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP
2727  *	on the last frame in the SP. Alternatively, it may call the function
2728  *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() to inform mac80211 of the end of the SP.
2729  *	This callback must be atomic.
2730  * @allow_buffered_frames: Prepare device to allow the given number of frames
2731  *	to go out to the given station. The frames will be sent by mac80211
2732  *	via the usual TX path after this call. The TX information for frames
2733  *	released will also have the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER flag set
2734  *	and the last one will also have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set. In case
2735  *	frames from multiple TIDs are released and the driver might reorder
2736  *	them between the TIDs, it must set the %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
2737  *	on the last frame and clear it on all others and also handle the EOSP
2738  *	bit in the QoS header correctly. Alternatively, it can also call the
2739  *	ieee80211_sta_eosp() function.
2740  *	The @tids parameter is a bitmap and tells the driver which TIDs the
2741  *	frames will be on; it will at most have two bits set.
2742  *	This callback must be atomic.
2743  *
2744  * @get_et_sset_count:  Ethtool API to get string-set count.
2745  *
2746  * @get_et_stats:  Ethtool API to get a set of u64 stats.
2747  *
2748  * @get_et_strings:  Ethtool API to get a set of strings to describe stats
2749  *	and perhaps other supported types of ethtool data-sets.
2750  *
2751  * @get_rssi: Get current signal strength in dBm, the function is optional
2752  *	and can sleep.
2753  *
2754  * @mgd_prepare_tx: Prepare for transmitting a management frame for association
2755  *	before associated. In multi-channel scenarios, a virtual interface is
2756  *	bound to a channel before it is associated, but as it isn't associated
2757  *	yet it need not necessarily be given airtime, in particular since any
2758  *	transmission to a P2P GO needs to be synchronized against the GO's
2759  *	powersave state. mac80211 will call this function before transmitting a
2760  *	management frame prior to having successfully associated to allow the
2761  *	driver to give it channel time for the transmission, to get a response
2762  *	and to be able to synchronize with the GO.
2763  *	The callback will be called before each transmission and upon return
2764  *	mac80211 will transmit the frame right away.
2765  *	The callback is optional and can (should!) sleep.
2766  *
2767  * @add_chanctx: Notifies device driver about new channel context creation.
2768  * @remove_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context destruction.
2769  * @change_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context changes that
2770  *	may happen when combining different virtual interfaces on the same
2771  *	channel context with different settings
2772  * @assign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being bound
2773  *	to vif. Possible use is for hw queue remapping.
2774  * @unassign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being
2775  *	unbound from vif.
2776  * @switch_vif_chanctx: switch a number of vifs from one chanctx to
2777  *	another, as specified in the list of
2778  *	@ieee80211_vif_chanctx_switch passed to the driver, according
2779  *	to the mode defined in &ieee80211_chanctx_switch_mode.
2780  *
2781  * @start_ap: Start operation on the AP interface, this is called after all the
2782  *	information in bss_conf is set and beacon can be retrieved. A channel
2783  *	context is bound before this is called. Note that if the driver uses
2784  *	software scan or ROC, this (and @stop_ap) isn't called when the AP is
2785  *	just "paused" for scanning/ROC, which is indicated by the beacon being
2786  *	disabled/enabled via @bss_info_changed.
2787  * @stop_ap: Stop operation on the AP interface.
2788  *
2789  * @restart_complete: Called after a call to ieee80211_restart_hw(), when the
2790  *	reconfiguration has completed. This can help the driver implement the
2791  *	reconfiguration step. Also called when reconfiguring because the
2792  *	driver's resume function returned 1, as this is just like an "inline"
2793  *	hardware restart. This callback may sleep.
2794  *
2795  * @ipv6_addr_change: IPv6 address assignment on the given interface changed.
2796  *	Currently, this is only called for managed or P2P client interfaces.
2797  *	This callback is optional; it must not sleep.
2798  *
2799  * @channel_switch_beacon: Starts a channel switch to a new channel.
2800  *	Beacons are modified to include CSA or ECSA IEs before calling this
2801  *	function. The corresponding count fields in these IEs must be
2802  *	decremented, and when they reach 1 the driver must call
2803  *	ieee80211_csa_finish(). Drivers which use ieee80211_beacon_get()
2804  *	get the csa counter decremented by mac80211, but must check if it is
2805  *	1 using ieee80211_csa_is_complete() after the beacon has been
2806  *	transmitted and then call ieee80211_csa_finish().
2807  *	If the CSA count starts as zero or 1, this function will not be called,
2808  *	since there won't be any time to beacon before the switch anyway.
2809  *
2810  * @join_ibss: Join an IBSS (on an IBSS interface); this is called after all
2811  *	information in bss_conf is set up and the beacon can be retrieved. A
2812  *	channel context is bound before this is called.
2813  * @leave_ibss: Leave the IBSS again.
2814  *
2815  * @get_expected_throughput: extract the expected throughput towards the
2816  *	specified station. The returned value is expressed in Kbps. It returns 0
2817  *	if the RC algorithm does not have proper data to provide.
