26 * DOC: Introduction
27 *
28 * mac80211 is the Linux stack for 802.11 hardware that implements
29 * only partial functionality in hard- or firmware. This document
30 * defines the interface between mac80211 and low-level hardware
31 * drivers.

34/**
35 * DOC: Calling mac80211 from interrupts
36 *
37 * Only ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe() and ieee80211_rx_irqsafe() can be
Jiri Bencf0706e822007-05-05 11:45:53 -070038 * called in hardware interrupt context. The low-level driver must not call any
39 * other functions in hardware interrupt context. If there is a need for such
40 * call, the low-level driver should first ACK the interrupt and perform the
Johannes Berg2485f712008-02-25 16:27:41 +010041 * IEEE 802.11 code call after this, e.g. from a scheduled workqueue or even
42 * tasklet function.
43 *
44 * NOTE: If the driver opts to use the _irqsafe() functions, it may not also
Randy Dunlap6ef307b2008-07-03 13:52:18 -070045 * use the non-IRQ-safe functions!

56 * DOC: Frame format
Jiri Bencf0706e822007-05-05 11:45:53 -070057 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -040058 * As a general rule, when frames are passed between mac80211 and the driver,
59 * they start with the IEEE 802.11 header and include the same octets that are
60 * sent over the air except for the FCS which should be calculated by the
61 * hardware.
62 *
63 * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features:
64 *
65 * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload
66 * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware.
67 *
68 * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to
69 * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU.
70 *
71 * Finally, for received frames, the driver is able to indicate that it has
72 * filled a radiotap header and put that in front of the frame; if it does
73 * not do so then mac80211 may add this under certain circumstances.

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -0400910 * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware
911 * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.
912 *
913 * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
914 * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
915 * decryption. The callback takes an @address parameter that will be
916 * the broadcast address for default keys, the other station's hardware
917 * address for individual keys or the zero address for keys that will
918 * be used only for transmission.
919 * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
920 * VLANs are configured for an access point.
921 *
922 * The @local_address parameter will always be set to our own address,
923 * this is only relevant if you support multiple local addresses.
924 *
925 * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
926 * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
927 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
928 *
929 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
930 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
931 * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
932 * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
933 *
934 * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
935 *
936 * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
937 * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
938 * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
939 * based on the receive flags.
940 *
941 * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
942 * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
943 * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
944 * keys.
Emmanuel Grumbach9ae4fda2008-03-20 15:06:42 +0200945 *
946 * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
947 * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
948 * handler.
949 * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
950 * This happens everytime the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
951 * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
952 * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
953 * provided by udpate_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
954 * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.

958 * DOC: Frame filtering
959 *
960 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
961 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
962 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
963 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
964 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
965 *
966 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
967 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
968 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
969 *
970 * The configure_filter() callback is invoked with the parameters
971 * @mc_count and @mc_list for the combined multicast address list
972 * of all virtual interfaces, @changed_flags telling which flags
973 * were changed and @total_flags with the new flag states.
974 *
975 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
976 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
977 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
978 * or dropped.
979 *
Michael Bueschd0f5afb2008-02-12 20:12:45 +0100980 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
981 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
982 * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
983 * the flag, but not clear it.
984 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
985 * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
986 * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
987 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
988 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
989 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
990 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
991 * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.

997 * These flags determine what the filter in hardware should be

1008 * multicast address.

1055 * struct ieee80211_ops - callbacks from mac80211 to the driver
1056 *
1057 * This structure contains various callbacks that the driver may
1058 * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
1059 * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
1060 *
1061 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
1062 * skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
1063 * The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
Johannes Bergeefce912008-05-17 00:57:13 +02001064 * configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
1065 * preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately, more
1066 * importantly, however, it must never fail for A-MPDU-queues.
1067 * Must be implemented and atomic.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001068 *
1069 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
1070 * is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
1071 * frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
1072 * Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
1073 * or zero.
1074 * When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
1075 * to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
1076 * is added.
1077 * Must be implemented.
1078 *
1079 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
1080 * is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
1081 * it must turn off frame reception.)
1082 * May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
1083 * an interface.
1084 * Must be implemented.
1085 *
1086 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
1087 * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @open
1088 * and @stop must be implemented.
1089 * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
1090 * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
1091 * interface is given in the conf parameter.
1092 * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
1093 * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
1094 * Must be implemented.
1095 *
1096 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
1097 * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
1098 * and no monitor interfaces are present.
1099 * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
1100 * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
1101 * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
1102 * MAC address of the device going away.
1103 * Hence, this callback must be implemented.
1104 *
1105 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
1106 * function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
1107 *
1108 * @config_interface: Handler for configuration requests related to interfaces
1109 * (e.g. BSSID changes.)
1110 *
Johannes Berg471b3ef2007-12-28 14:32:58 +01001111 * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
1112 * parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
1113 * level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
1114 * This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
1115 * for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
Reinette Chatred18ef292008-04-09 16:56:15 -07001116 * of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made.

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001118 * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
1119 * See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
1120 * This callback must be implemented and atomic.
1121 *
Luis R. Rodriguez546c80c2008-08-14 11:43:20 -07001122 * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
Johannes Berg17741cd2008-09-11 00:02:02 +02001123 * must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.

1125 * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"

1133 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001134 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001166 *
1167 * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,

1169 * required function. Must be atomic.
1170 *
1171 * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
1172 * with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This

1174 * TSF synchronization.
1175 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001176 * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
