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!

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.

1038 * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.
1039 *
1040 * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1041 * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
Johannes Bergdc822b52008-12-29 12:55:09 +01001042 * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1043 * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1044 * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001045 * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1046 * VLANs are configured for an access point.
1047 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001048 * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1049 * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1050 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1051 *
1052 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1053 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1054 * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
1055 * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
1056 *
1057 * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
1058 *
1059 * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
1060 * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
1061 * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
1062 * based on the receive flags.
1063 *
1064 * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
1065 * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
1066 * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
1067 * keys.

1069 * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption

1071 * handler.
1072 * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
1073 * This happens everytime the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
1074 * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did

Johannes Berg4be8c382009-01-07 18:28:20 +01001081 * DOC: Powersave support
1082 *
1083 * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
1084 *
1085 * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by
1086 * itself, such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1087 * hardware flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired
1088 * powersave mode depending on the association status, and the driver
1089 * must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary, i.e. when
1090 * entering and leaving powersave mode. The driver is required to look at
1091 * the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when it finds
1092 * traffic directed to it. This mode supports dynamic PS by simply
1093 * enabling/disabling PS.
1094 *
1095 * Additionally, such hardware may set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS
1096 * flag to indicate that it can support dynamic PS mode itself (see below).
1097 *
1098 * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1099 * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1100 * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1101 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
Johannes Berg955394c2009-04-16 17:04:25 +02001102 * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
1103 * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
1104 * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow.
Johannes Berg4be8c382009-01-07 18:28:20 +01001105 *
1106 * Dynamic powersave mode is an extension to normal powersave mode in which
1107 * the hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending
1108 * a frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed
1109 * to the next wakeup. This can either be supported by hardware, in which case
1110 * the driver needs to look at the @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration
1111 * value, or by the stack if all nullfunc handling is in the stack.

1114/**
Kalle Valo04de8382009-03-22 21:57:35 +02001115 * DOC: Beacon filter support
1116 *
1117 * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1118 * which will reduce system power consumption. It usuallly works so that
1119 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1120 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
1121 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
1122 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1123 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1124 *
Johannes Berg955394c2009-04-16 17:04:25 +02001125 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTER
1126 * hardware capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
1127 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
1128 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
1129 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
1130 *
1131 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
1132 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
1133 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
1134 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
1135 *
1136 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
1137 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
1138 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
1139 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
1140 * - a list of information element IDs
1141 * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
1142 *
1143 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
1144 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
1145 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
1146 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
1147 * vendor information elements.
1148 *
1149 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
1150 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
1151 *
1152 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
1153 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
1154 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
1155 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
1156 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
1157 * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
1158 *
1159 *
1160 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
1161 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
1162 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
1163 * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
1164 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
1165 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
1166 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
1167 * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
1168 *
1169 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
1170 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
1171 * signal strength threshold checking.

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001175 * DOC: Frame filtering
1176 *
1177 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
1178 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
1179 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
1180 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1181 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1182 *
1183 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
1184 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
1185 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
1186 *
1187 * The configure_filter() callback is invoked with the parameters
1188 * @mc_count and @mc_list for the combined multicast address list
1189 * of all virtual interfaces, @changed_flags telling which flags
1190 * were changed and @total_flags with the new flag states.
1191 *
1192 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
1193 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
1194 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
1195 * or dropped.
1196 *
Michael Bueschd0f5afb2008-02-12 20:12:45 +01001197 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
1198 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
1199 * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
1200 * the flag, but not clear it.
1201 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
1202 * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
1203 * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
1204 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1205 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1206 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1207 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
1208 * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.

1274 * struct ieee80211_ops - callbacks from mac80211 to the driver
1275 *
1276 * This structure contains various callbacks that the driver may
1277 * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
1278 * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
1279 *
1280 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
1281 * skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
1282 * The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
Johannes Bergeefce912008-05-17 00:57:13 +02001283 * configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
1284 * preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately, more
1285 * importantly, however, it must never fail for A-MPDU-queues.
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001286 * This function should return NETDEV_TX_OK except in very
1287 * limited cases.
Johannes Bergeefce912008-05-17 00:57:13 +02001288 * Must be implemented and atomic.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001289 *
1290 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
1291 * is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
1292 * frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
1293 * Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
1294 * or zero.
1295 * When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
1296 * to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
1297 * is added.
1298 * Must be implemented.
1299 *
1300 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
1301 * is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
1302 * it must turn off frame reception.)
1303 * May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
1304 * an interface.
1305 * Must be implemented.
1306 *
1307 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
Bob Copelande37d4df2008-10-20 21:20:27 -04001308 * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001309 * and @stop must be implemented.
1310 * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
1311 * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
1312 * interface is given in the conf parameter.
1313 * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
1314 * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
1315 * Must be implemented.
1316 *
1317 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
1318 * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
1319 * and no monitor interfaces are present.
1320 * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
1321 * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
1322 * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
1323 * MAC address of the device going away.
1324 * Hence, this callback must be implemented.
1325 *
1326 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
1327 * function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001328 * This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
1329 * if it does.

Johannes Berg471b3ef2007-12-28 14:32:58 +01001331 * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
1332 * parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
1333 * level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
1334 * This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
1335 * for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
Reinette Chatred18ef292008-04-09 16:56:15 -07001336 * of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made.

1345 * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
1346 * This callback can sleep, and is only called between add_interface
Johannes Bergdc822b52008-12-29 12:55:09 +01001347 * and remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
1348 * is enabled.

Emmanuel Grumbach9ae4fda2008-03-20 15:06:42 +02001351 * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
1352 * This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
1353 * which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
1354 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001355 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
Johannes Berg8318d782008-01-24 19:38:38 +01001356 * the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
Kalle Valo9050bdd2009-03-22 21:57:21 +02001357 * configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
1358 * registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
Johannes Bergde95a542009-04-01 11:58:36 +02001359 * that power save is disabled.
1360 * The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
1361 * entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
1362 * at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
1363 * (extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
1364 * When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
1365 * note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
1366 * any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.

1370 *
1371 * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a software scan
1372 * finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
1373 *
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001374 * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
1375 * Returns zero if statistics are available.

1379 * and IV16) for the given key from hardware.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001380 *

1391 * @get_tx_stats: Get statistics of the current TX queue status. This is used
1392 * to get number of currently queued packets (queue length), maximum queue
1393 * size (limit), and total number of packets sent using each TX queue
Johannes Berge4e72fb2009-03-23 17:28:42 +01001394 * (count). The 'stats' pointer points to an array that has hw->queues
