52 These books attempt to give a description of the
53 various subsystems that play a role in 802.11 wireless
54 networking in Linux. Since these books are for kernel
55 developers they attempts to document the structures
56 and functions used in the kernel as well as giving a
57 higher-level overview.
58 </para>
59 <para>
60 The reader is expected to be familiar with the 802.11
61 standard as published by the IEEE in 802.11-2007 (or
62 possibly later versions). References to this standard
63 will be given as "802.11-2007 8.1.5".

219 Generally, this document shall be ordered by increasing complexity.
220 It is important to note that readers should be able to read only
221 the first few sections to get a working driver and only advanced
222 usage should require reading the full document.

226 <title>The basic mac80211 driver interface</title>
227 <partintro>
228 <para>
229 You should read and understand the information contained
230 within this part of the book while implementing a driver.
231 In some chapters, advanced usage is noted, that may be
232 skipped at first.
233 </para>
234 <para>
235 This part of the book only covers station and monitor mode
236 functionality, additional information required to implement
237 the other modes is covered in the second part of the book.

249 Since it is required to allocate rates/modes before registering
250 a hw struct, this chapter shall also contain information on setting
251 up the rate/mode structs.

253 <para>
254 Additionally, some discussion about the callbacks and
255 the general programming model should be in here, including
256 the definition of ieee80211_ops which will be referred to
