12 * @NL80211_CMD_UNSPEC: unspecified command to catch errors
13 *
14 * @NL80211_CMD_GET_WIPHY: request information about a wiphy or dump request
15 * to get a list of all present wiphys.
16 * @NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY: set wiphy name, needs %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY and
17 * %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_NAME.
18 * @NL80211_CMD_NEW_WIPHY: Newly created wiphy, response to get request
19 * or rename notification. Has attributes %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY and
20 * %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_NAME.
21 * @NL80211_CMD_DEL_WIPHY: Wiphy deleted. Has attributes
22 * %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY and %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_NAME.
23 *
24 * @NL80211_CMD_GET_INTERFACE: Request an interface's configuration;
25 * either a dump request on a %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY or a specific get
26 * on an %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX is supported.
27 * @NL80211_CMD_SET_INTERFACE: Set type of a virtual interface, requires
28 * %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX and %NL80211_ATTR_IFTYPE.
29 * @NL80211_CMD_NEW_INTERFACE: Newly created virtual interface or response
30 * to %NL80211_CMD_GET_INTERFACE. Has %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX,
31 * %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY and %NL80211_ATTR_IFTYPE attributes. Can also
32 * be sent from userspace to request creation of a new virtual interface,
33 * then requires attributes %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY, %NL80211_ATTR_IFTYPE and
34 * %NL80211_ATTR_IFNAME.
35 * @NL80211_CMD_DEL_INTERFACE: Virtual interface was deleted, has attributes
36 * %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX and %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY. Can also be sent from
37 * userspace to request deletion of a virtual interface, then requires
38 * attribute %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX.
