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
Jiri Bencf0706e82007-05-05 11:45:53 -070037 * 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
Johannes Berg2485f712008-02-25 16:27:41 +010040 * 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
Randy Dunlap6ef307b2008-07-03 13:52:18 -070044 * use the non-IRQ-safe functions!

Jiri Bencf0706e82007-05-05 11:45:53 -070056 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -040057 * As a general rule, when frames are passed between mac80211 and the driver,
58 * they start with the IEEE 802.11 header and include the same octets that are
59 * sent over the air except for the FCS which should be calculated by the
60 * hardware.
61 *
62 * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features:
63 *
64 * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload
65 * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware.
66 *
67 * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to
68 * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU.
69 *
70 * Finally, for received frames, the driver is able to indicate that it has
71 * filled a radiotap header and put that in front of the frame; if it does
72 * not do so then mac80211 may add this under certain circumstances.

78 * mac80211 provides its own workqueue for drivers and internal mac80211 use.
79 * The workqueue is a single threaded workqueue and can only be accessed by
80 * helpers for sanity checking. Drivers must ensure all work added onto the

Ron Rindjunsky11f4b1c2008-03-04 18:09:26 -0800296 *
Randy Dunlap6ef307b2008-07-03 13:52:18 -0700297 * These flags are used with the @flags member of &ieee80211_tx_info.
Ron Rindjunsky11f4b1c2008-03-04 18:09:26 -0800298 *
Johannes Berg7351c6b2009-11-19 01:08:30 +0100299 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS: require TX status callback for this frame.
Johannes Berge6a98542008-10-21 12:40:02 +0200300 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ: The driver has to assign a sequence
301 * number to this frame, taking care of not overwriting the fragment
302 * number and increasing the sequence number only when the
303 * IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT flag is set. mac80211 will properly
304 * assign sequence numbers to QoS-data frames but cannot do so correctly
305 * for non-QoS-data and management frames because beacons need them from
306 * that counter as well and mac80211 cannot guarantee proper sequencing.
307 * If this flag is set, the driver should instruct the hardware to
308 * assign a sequence number to the frame or assign one itself. Cf. IEEE
309 * 802.11-2007 7.1.3.4.1 paragraph 3. This flag will always be set for
310 * beacons and always be clear for frames without a sequence number field.
Johannes Berge039fa42008-05-15 12:55:29 +0200311 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK: tell the low level not to wait for an ack
Johannes Berge039fa42008-05-15 12:55:29 +0200312 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT: clear powersave filter for destination
313 * station
Johannes Berge039fa42008-05-15 12:55:29 +0200314 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT: this is a first fragment of the frame
Johannes Berge039fa42008-05-15 12:55:29 +0200315 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_SEND_AFTER_DTIM: send this frame after DTIM beacon
316 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU: this frame should be sent as part of an A-MPDU
Johannes Berge6a98542008-10-21 12:40:02 +0200317 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_INJECTED: Frame was injected, internal to mac80211.
Johannes Berge039fa42008-05-15 12:55:29 +0200318 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED: The frame was not transmitted
Johannes Bergab5b5342009-08-07 16:28:09 +0200319 * because the destination STA was in powersave mode. Note that to
320 * avoid race conditions, the filter must be set by the hardware or
321 * firmware upon receiving a frame that indicates that the station
322 * went to sleep (must be done on device to filter frames already on
323 * the queue) and may only be unset after mac80211 gives the OK for
324 * that by setting the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT (see above),
325 * since only then is it guaranteed that no more frames are in the
326 * hardware queue.
Johannes Berge039fa42008-05-15 12:55:29 +0200327 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK: Frame was acknowledged
328 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU: The frame was aggregated, so status
329 * is for the whole aggregation.
Ron Rindjunsky429a3802008-07-01 14:16:03 +0300330 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU_NO_BACK: no block ack was returned,
331 * so consider using block ack request (BAR).
Johannes Berge6a98542008-10-21 12:40:02 +0200332 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_RATE_CTRL_PROBE: internal to mac80211, can be
333 * set by rate control algorithms to indicate probe rate, will
334 * be cleared for fragmented frames (except on the last fragment)
Johannes Bergcd8ffc82009-03-23 17:28:41 +0100335 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NEED_TXPROCESSING: completely internal to mac80211,
336 * used to indicate that a pending frame requires TX processing before
337 * it can be sent out.
Johannes Berg8f77f382009-06-07 21:58:37 +0200338 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRIED: completely internal to mac80211,
339 * used to indicate that a frame was already retried due to PS
Johannes Berg3b8d81e02009-06-17 17:43:56 +0200340 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT: completely internal to mac80211,
341 * used to indicate frame should not be encrypted
Johannes Berg47086fc2011-09-29 16:04:33 +0200342 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_POLL_RESPONSE: This frame is a response to a poll
343 * frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD) and should be sent although the station
344 * is in powersave mode.
Johannes Bergad5351d2009-08-07 16:42:15 +0200345 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES: More frames will be passed to the
346 * transmit function after the current frame, this can be used
347 * by drivers to kick the DMA queue only if unset or when the
348 * queue gets full.
Johannes Bergc6fcf6b2010-01-17 01:47:59 +0100349 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRANSMISSION: This frame is being retransmitted
350 * after TX status because the destination was asleep, it must not
351 * be modified again (no seqno assignment, crypto, etc.)
Felix Fietkau17ad3532010-01-31 21:56:25 +0100352 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_HAS_RADIOTAP: This frame was injected and still
353 * has a radiotap header at skb->data.
Jouni Malinen026331c2010-02-15 12:53:10 +0200354 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NL80211_FRAME_TX: Frame was requested through nl80211
355 * MLME command (internal to mac80211 to figure out whether to send TX
356 * status to user space)
Luis R. Rodriguez0a56bd02010-04-15 17:39:37 -0400357 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_LDPC: tells the driver to use LDPC for this frame
Felix Fietkauf79d9ba2010-04-19 19:57:35 +0200358 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_STBC: Enables Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) for this
359 * frame and selects the maximum number of streams that it can use.
Johannes Berg610dbc92011-01-06 22:36:44 +0100360 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN: Marks this packet to be transmitted on
361 * the off-channel channel when a remain-on-channel offload is done
362 * in hardware -- normal packets still flow and are expected to be
363 * handled properly by the device.
Jouni Malinen681d1192011-02-03 18:35:19 +0200364 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_TKIP_MIC_FAILURE: Marks this packet to be used for TKIP
365 * testing. It will be sent out with incorrect Michael MIC key to allow
366 * TKIP countermeasures to be tested.
Rajkumar Manoharanaad14ce2011-09-25 14:53:31 +0530367 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_CCK_RATE: This frame will be sent at non CCK rate.
368 * This flag is actually used for management frame especially for P2P
369 * frames not being sent at CCK rate in 2GHz band.
Johannes Berg47086fc2011-09-29 16:04:33 +0200370 * @IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP: This packet marks the end of service period,
371 * when its status is reported the service period ends. For frames in
372 * an SP that mac80211 transmits, it is already set; for driver frames
Johannes Bergdeeaee192011-09-29 16:04:35 +0200373 * the driver may set this flag. It is also used to do the same for
374 * PS-Poll responses.
Christian Lampartereb7d3062010-09-21 21:36:18 +0200375 *
376 * Note: If you have to add new flags to the enumeration, then don't
377 * forget to update %IEEE80211_TX_TEMPORARY_FLAGS when necessary.

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001303 * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware
1304 * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.
1305 *
1306 * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1307 * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
Johannes Bergdc822b52008-12-29 12:55:09 +01001308 * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1309 * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1310 * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001311 * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1312 * VLANs are configured for an access point.
1313 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001314 * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1315 * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1316 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1317 *
1318 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1319 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1320 * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
1321 * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
1322 *
1323 * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
1324 *
1325 * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
1326 * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
1327 * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
1328 * based on the receive flags.
1329 *
1330 * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
1331 * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
1332 * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
1333 * keys.
Emmanuel Grumbach9ae4fda2008-03-20 15:06:42 +02001334 *
1335 * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
1336 * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
1337 * handler.
1338 * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
Lucas De Marchi25985ed2011-03-30 22:57:33 -03001339 * This happens every time the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
Emmanuel Grumbach9ae4fda2008-03-20 15:06:42 +02001340 * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
1341 * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
Bob Copelande37d4df2008-10-20 21:20:27 -04001342 * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
Emmanuel Grumbach9ae4fda2008-03-20 15:06:42 +02001343 * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.

1356 * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
1357 * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
1358 * it finds traffic directed to it.

1388 * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
1389 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support

Kalle Valo04de8382009-03-22 21:57:35 +02001417 * DOC: Beacon filter support
1418 *
1419 * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1420 * which will reduce system power consumption. It usuallly works so that
1421 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1422 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
1423 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
1424 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1425 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1426 *
Johannes Berg955394c2009-04-16 17:04:25 +02001427 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTER
1428 * hardware capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
1429 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
1430 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
1431 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
1432 *
1433 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
1434 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
1435 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
1436 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
1437 *
1438 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
1439 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
1440 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
1441 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
1442 * - a list of information element IDs
1443 * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
1444 *
1445 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
1446 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
1447 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
1448 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
1449 * vendor information elements.
1450 *
1451 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
1452 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
1453 *
1454 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
1455 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
1456 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
1457 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
1458 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
1459 * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
1460 *
1461 *
1462 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
1463 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
1464 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
1465 * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
1466 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
1467 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
1468 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
1469 * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
1470 *
1471 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
1472 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
1473 * signal strength threshold checking.

Johannes Berg0f782312009-12-01 13:37:02 +01001477 * DOC: Spatial multiplexing power save
1478 *
1479 * SMPS (Spatial multiplexing power save) is a mechanism to conserve
1480 * power in an 802.11n implementation. For details on the mechanism
1481 * and rationale, please refer to 802.11 (as amended by 802.11n-2009)
1482 * "11.2.3 SM power save".
1483 *
1484 * The mac80211 implementation is capable of sending action frames
1485 * to update the AP about the station's SMPS mode, and will instruct
1486 * the driver to enter the specific mode. It will also announce the
1487 * requested SMPS mode during the association handshake. Hardware
1488 * support for this feature is required, and can be indicated by
1489 * hardware flags.
1490 *
1491 * The default mode will be "automatic", which nl80211/cfg80211
1492 * defines to be dynamic SMPS in (regular) powersave, and SMPS
1493 * turned off otherwise.
1494 *
1495 * To support this feature, the driver must set the appropriate
1496 * hardware support flags, and handle the SMPS flag to the config()
1497 * operation. It will then with this mechanism be instructed to
1498 * enter the requested SMPS mode while associated to an HT AP.

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001502 * DOC: Frame filtering
1503 *
1504 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
1505 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
1506 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
1507 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1508 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1509 *
1510 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
1511 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
1512 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
1513 *
Johannes Berg3ac64be2009-08-17 16:16:53 +02001514 * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
1515 * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
1516 * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
1517 * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
1518 * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
1519 * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
1520 * @total_flags with the new flag states.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001521 *
1522 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
1523 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
1524 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
1525 * or dropped.
1526 *
Michael Bueschd0f5afb2008-02-12 20:12:45 +01001527 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
1528 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
1529 * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
1530 * the flag, but not clear it.
1531 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
1532 * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
1533 * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
1534 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1535 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1536 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1537 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
1538 * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001692 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
Bob Copelande37d4df2008-10-20 21:20:27 -04001693 * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001694 * and @stop must be implemented.
1695 * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
1696 * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
1697 * interface is given in the conf parameter.
1698 * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
1699 * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
Kalle Valoe1781ed2009-12-23 13:15:47 +01001700 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001701 *
Johannes Berg34d4bc42010-08-27 12:35:58 +02001702 * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback
1703 * is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be
1704 * switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep.
1705 * Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be
1706 * found by the interface iteration callbacks.
1707 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001708 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
1709 * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
1710 * and no monitor interfaces are present.
1711 * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
1712 * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
1713 * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
1714 * MAC address of the device going away.
Kalle Valoe1781ed2009-12-23 13:15:47 +01001715 * Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001716 *
1717 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
1718 * function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001719 * This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
Kalle Valoe1781ed2009-12-23 13:15:47 +01001720 * if it does. The callback can sleep.

Johannes Berg471b3ef2007-12-28 14:32:58 +01001722 * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
1723 * parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
1724 * level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
1725 * This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
1726 * for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
Kalle Valoe1781ed2009-12-23 13:15:47 +01001727 * of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback
1728 * can sleep.
Johannes Berg471b3ef2007-12-28 14:32:58 +01001729 *
Johannes Bergb2abb6e2011-07-19 10:39:53 +02001730 * @tx_sync: Called before a frame is sent to an AP/GO. In the GO case, the
1731 * driver should sync with the GO's powersaving so the device doesn't
1732 * transmit the frame while the GO is asleep. In the regular AP case
1733 * it may be used by drivers for devices implementing other restrictions
1734 * on talking to APs, e.g. due to regulatory enforcement or just HW
1735 * restrictions.
1736 * This function is called for every authentication, association and
1737 * action frame separately since applications might attempt to auth
1738 * with multiple APs before chosing one to associate to. If it returns
1739 * an error, the corresponding authentication, association or frame
1740 * transmission is aborted and reported as having failed. It is always
1741 * called after tuning to the correct channel.
1742 * The callback might be called multiple times before @finish_tx_sync
1743 * (but @finish_tx_sync will be called once for each) but in practice
1744 * this is unlikely to happen. It can also refuse in that case if the
1745 * driver cannot handle that situation.
1746 * This callback can sleep.
1747 * @finish_tx_sync: Called as a counterpart to @tx_sync, unless that returned
1748 * an error. This callback can sleep.
1749 *
Johannes Berg3ac64be2009-08-17 16:16:53 +02001750 * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration.
1751 * This callback is optional, and its return value is passed
1752 * to configure_filter(). This callback must be atomic.
1753 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001754 * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.

Luis R. Rodriguez546c80c92008-08-14 11:43:20 -07001758 * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
Johannes Berg17741cd2008-09-11 00:02:02 +02001759 * must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001760 *
1761 * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
Kalle Valoe1781ed2009-12-23 13:15:47 +01001762 * This callback is only called between add_interface and
1763 * remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
Johannes Bergdc822b52008-12-29 12:55:09 +01001764 * is enabled.
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001765 * Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
Kalle Valoe1781ed2009-12-23 13:15:47 +01001766 * The callback can sleep.

Emmanuel Grumbach9ae4fda2008-03-20 15:06:42 +02001768 * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
1769 * This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
1770 * which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
Kalle Valoeb807fb2010-01-24 14:55:12 +02001771 * The callback must be atomic.

Johannes Bergc68f4b82011-07-05 16:35:41 +02001773 * @set_rekey_data: If the device supports GTK rekeying, for example while the
1774 * host is suspended, it can assign this callback to retrieve the data
1775 * necessary to do GTK rekeying, this is the KEK, KCK and replay counter.
1776 * After rekeying was done it should (for example during resume) notify
1777 * userspace of the new replay counter using ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify().
1778 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001779 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
Johannes Berg8318d782008-01-24 19:38:38 +01001780 * the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
Kalle Valo9050bdd2009-03-22 21:57:21 +02001781 * configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
1782 * registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
Johannes Bergde95a542009-04-01 11:58:36 +02001783 * that power save is disabled.
1784 * The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
1785 * entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
1786 * at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
1787 * (extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
1788 * When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
1789 * note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
1790 * any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
Kalle Valoe1781ed2009-12-23 13:15:47 +01001791 * The callback can sleep.

Eliad Pellerb8564392011-06-13 12:47:30 +03001793 * @cancel_hw_scan: Ask the low-level tp cancel the active hw scan.
1794 * The driver should ask the hardware to cancel the scan (if possible),
1795 * but the scan will be completed only after the driver will call
1796 * ieee80211_scan_completed().
1797 * This callback is needed for wowlan, to prevent enqueueing a new
1798 * scan_work after the low-level driver was already suspended.

1800 *
Luciano Coelho79f460c2011-05-11 17:09:36 +03001801 * @sched_scan_start: Ask the hardware to start scanning repeatedly at
1802 * specific intervals. The driver must call the
1803 * ieee80211_sched_scan_results() function whenever it finds results.
1804 * This process will continue until sched_scan_stop is called.
1805 *
1806 * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the hardware to stop an ongoing scheduled scan.

Meenakshi Venkataraman615f7b92011-07-08 08:46:22 -07001949 * @rssi_callback: Notify driver when the average RSSI goes above/below
1950 * thresholds that were registered previously. The callback can sleep.
Johannes Berg4049e092011-09-29 16:04:32 +02001951 *
1952 * @release_buffered_frames: Release buffered frames according to the given
1953 * parameters. In the case where the driver buffers some frames for
1954 * sleeping stations mac80211 will use this callback to tell the driver
1955 * to release some frames, either for PS-poll or uAPSD.
1956 * Note that if the @more_data paramter is %false the driver must check
1957 * if there are more frames on the given TIDs, and if there are more than
1958 * the frames being released then it must still set the more-data bit in
1959 * the frame. If the @more_data parameter is %true, then of course the
1960 * more-data bit must always be set.
1961 * The @tids parameter tells the driver which TIDs to release frames
1962 * from, for PS-poll it will always have only a single bit set.
Johannes Bergdeeaee192011-09-29 16:04:35 +02001963 * In the case this is used for a PS-poll initiated release, the
1964 * @num_frames parameter will always be 1 so code can be shared. In
1965 * this case the driver must also set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
1966 * on the TX status (and must report TX status) so that the PS-poll
1967 * period is properly ended. This is used to avoid sending multiple
1968 * responses for a retried PS-poll frame.
Johannes Berg4049e092011-09-29 16:04:32 +02001969 * In the case this is used for uAPSD, the @num_frames parameter may be
1970 * bigger than one, but the driver may send fewer frames (it must send
1971 * at least one, however). In this case it is also responsible for
Johannes Berg47086fc2011-09-29 16:04:33 +02001972 * setting the EOSP flag in the QoS header of the frames. Also, when the
1973 * service period ends, the driver must set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP
Johannes Berg37fbd902011-09-29 16:04:39 +02001974 * on the last frame in the SP. Alternatively, it may call the function
1975 * ieee80211_sta_eosp_irqsafe() to inform mac80211 of the end of the SP.
Johannes Berg4049e092011-09-29 16:04:32 +02001976 * This callback must be atomic.
Johannes Berg40b96402011-09-29 16:04:38 +02001977 * @allow_buffered_frames: Prepare device to allow the given number of frames
1978 * to go out to the given station. The frames will be sent by mac80211
1979 * via the usual TX path after this call. The TX information for frames
1980 * released will also have the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_POLL_RESPONSE flag set
1981 * and the last one will also have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set. In case
1982 * frames from multiple TIDs are released and the driver might reorder
1983 * them between the TIDs, it must set the %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
1984 * on the last frame and clear it on all others and also handle the EOSP
Johannes Berg37fbd902011-09-29 16:04:39 +02001985 * bit in the QoS header correctly. Alternatively, it can also call the
1986 * ieee80211_sta_eosp_irqsafe() function.
Johannes Berg40b96402011-09-29 16:04:38 +02001987 * The @tids parameter is a bitmap and tells the driver which TIDs the
1988 * frames will be on; it will at most have two bits set.
1989 * This callback must be atomic.
