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".

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

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

248 Since it is required to allocate rates/modes before registering
249 a hw struct, this chapter shall also contain information on setting
250 up the rate/mode structs.
251 </para>
252 <para>
253 Additionally, some discussion about the callbacks and
254 the general programming model should be in here, including
255 the definition of ieee80211_ops which will be referred to
256 a lot.
257 </para>
258 <para>
259 Finally, a discussion of hardware capabilities should be done
