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".

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

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

243 This chapter shall contain information on getting a hw

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

383 Mac80211 supports various ways of blinking LEDs. Wherever possible,
384 device LEDs should be exposed as LED class devices and hooked up to
385 the appropriate trigger, which will then be triggered appropriately
386 by mac80211.
