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

34 * DOC: Calling mac80211 from interrupts
35 *
36 * Only ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe() and ieee80211_rx_irqsafe() can be
Jiri Bencf0706e822007-05-05 11:45:53 -070037 * called in hardware interrupt context. The low-level driver must not call any
38 * other functions in hardware interrupt context. If there is a need for such
39 * call, the low-level driver should first ACK the interrupt and perform the
Johannes Berg2485f712008-02-25 16:27:41 +010040 * IEEE 802.11 code call after this, e.g. from a scheduled workqueue or even
41 * tasklet function.
42 *
43 * NOTE: If the driver opts to use the _irqsafe() functions, it may not also
Randy Dunlap6ef307b2008-07-03 13:52:18 -070044 * use the non-IRQ-safe functions!

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -040057 * As a general rule, when frames are passed between mac80211 and the driver,
58 * they start with the IEEE 802.11 header and include the same octets that are
59 * sent over the air except for the FCS which should be calculated by the
60 * hardware.
61 *
62 * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features:
63 *
64 * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload
65 * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware.
66 *
67 * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to
68 * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU.
69 *
70 * Finally, for received frames, the driver is able to indicate that it has
71 * filled a radiotap header and put that in front of the frame; if it does
72 * not do so then mac80211 may add this under certain circumstances.

Johannes Berg1bc08262007-09-18 17:29:15 -0400856 * enum ieee80211_hw_flags - hardware flags
857 *
858 * These flags are used to indicate hardware capabilities to
859 * the stack. Generally, flags here should have their meaning
860 * done in a way that the simplest hardware doesn't need setting
861 * any particular flags. There are some exceptions to this rule,
862 * however, so you are advised to review these flags carefully.
863 *
Johannes Bergaf65cd92009-11-17 18:18:36 +0100864 * @IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL:
865 * The hardware or firmware includes rate control, and cannot be
866 * controlled by the stack. As such, no rate control algorithm
867 * should be instantiated, and the TX rate reported to userspace
868 * will be taken from the TX status instead of the rate control
869 * algorithm.
870 * Note that this requires that the driver implement a number of
871 * callbacks so it has the correct information, it needs to have
872 * the @set_rts_threshold callback and must look at the BSS config
873 * @use_cts_prot for G/N protection, @use_short_slot for slot
874 * timing in 2.4 GHz and @use_short_preamble for preambles for
875 * CCK frames.
876 *
Johannes Berg1bc08262007-09-18 17:29:15 -0400877 * @IEEE80211_HW_RX_INCLUDES_FCS:
878 * Indicates that received frames passed to the stack include
879 * the FCS at the end.
880 *
881 * @IEEE80211_HW_HOST_BROADCAST_PS_BUFFERING:
882 * Some wireless LAN chipsets buffer broadcast/multicast frames
883 * for power saving stations in the hardware/firmware and others
884 * rely on the host system for such buffering. This option is used
885 * to configure the IEEE 802.11 upper layer to buffer broadcast and
886 * multicast frames when there are power saving stations so that
Luis R. Rodriguez546c80c2008-08-14 11:43:20 -0700887 * the driver can fetch them with ieee80211_get_buffered_bc().

Bruno Randolf566bfe52008-05-08 19:15:40 +0200901 * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM:

Johannes Berg4150c572007-09-17 01:29:23 -04001103 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001104 * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware
1105 * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.
1106 *
1107 * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1108 * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
Johannes Bergdc822b52008-12-29 12:55:09 +01001109 * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1110 * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1111 * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001112 * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1113 * VLANs are configured for an access point.
1114 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001115 * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1116 * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1117 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1118 *
1119 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1120 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1121 * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the

Johannes Berg4be8c382009-01-07 18:28:20 +01001148 * DOC: Powersave support
1149 *
1150 * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
1151 *
Kalle Valoc99445b2010-01-14 13:09:21 +02001152 * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
1153 * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
1154 * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
1155 * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
1156 * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
1157 * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
1158 * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
1159 * it finds traffic directed to it.
Johannes Berg4be8c382009-01-07 18:28:20 +01001160 *
Kalle Valoc99445b2010-01-14 13:09:21 +02001161 * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
1162 * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
1163 * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
1164 * up the hardware before issueing commands to the hardware and putting it
1165 * back to sleep at approriate times.
1166 *
1167 * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
1168 * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
1169 * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
Johannes Berg4be8c382009-01-07 18:28:20 +01001170 *
1171 * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1172 * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1173 * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1174 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
Johannes Berg955394c2009-04-16 17:04:25 +02001175 * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
1176 * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
Kalle Valoc99445b2010-01-14 13:09:21 +02001177 * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
Johannes Berg4be8c382009-01-07 18:28:20 +01001178 *
Kalle Valoc99445b2010-01-14 13:09:21 +02001179 * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
1180 * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
1181 * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
1182 * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
1183 * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
1184 * periods.
1185 *
1186 * Dynamic powersave is supported by simply mac80211 enabling and disabling
1187 * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1188 * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
1189 * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
1190 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
1191 * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
1192 * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
1193 * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
1194 * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
1195 * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
1196 *
1197 * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
1198 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
1199 * uapsd paramater in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
1200 * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
1201 * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
1202 * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.
1203 *
1204 * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with
1205 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK.

Kalle Valo04de8382009-03-22 21:57:35 +02001209 * DOC: Beacon filter support
1210 *
1211 * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1212 * which will reduce system power consumption. It usuallly works so that
1213 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1214 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
1215 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
1216 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1217 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1218 *
Johannes Berg955394c2009-04-16 17:04:25 +02001219 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTER
1220 * hardware capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
1221 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
1222 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
1223 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
1224 *
1225 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
1226 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
1227 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
1228 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
1229 *
1230 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
1231 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
1232 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
1233 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
1234 * - a list of information element IDs
1235 * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
1236 *
1237 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
1238 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
1239 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
1240 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
1241 * vendor information elements.
1242 *
1243 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
1244 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
1245 *
1246 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
1247 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
1248 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
1249 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
1250 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
1251 * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
1252 *
1253 *
1254 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
1255 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
1256 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
1257 * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
1258 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
1259 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
1260 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
1261 * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
1262 *
1263 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
1264 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
1265 * signal strength threshold checking.

Johannes Berg0f782312009-12-01 13:37:02 +01001269 * DOC: Spatial multiplexing power save
1270 *
1271 * SMPS (Spatial multiplexing power save) is a mechanism to conserve
1272 * power in an 802.11n implementation. For details on the mechanism
1273 * and rationale, please refer to 802.11 (as amended by 802.11n-2009)
1274 * "11.2.3 SM power save".
1275 *
1276 * The mac80211 implementation is capable of sending action frames
1277 * to update the AP about the station's SMPS mode, and will instruct
1278 * the driver to enter the specific mode. It will also announce the
1279 * requested SMPS mode during the association handshake. Hardware
1280 * support for this feature is required, and can be indicated by
1281 * hardware flags.
1282 *
1283 * The default mode will be "automatic", which nl80211/cfg80211
1284 * defines to be dynamic SMPS in (regular) powersave, and SMPS
1285 * turned off otherwise.
1286 *
1287 * To support this feature, the driver must set the appropriate
1288 * hardware support flags, and handle the SMPS flag to the config()
1289 * operation. It will then with this mechanism be instructed to
1290 * enter the requested SMPS mode while associated to an HT AP.

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001294 * DOC: Frame filtering
1295 *
1296 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
1297 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
1298 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
1299 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1300 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1301 *
1302 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
1303 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
1304 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
1305 *
Johannes Berg3ac64be2009-08-17 16:16:53 +02001306 * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
1307 * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
1308 * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
1309 * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
1310 * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
1311 * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
1312 * @total_flags with the new flag states.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001313 *
1314 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
1315 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
1316 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
1317 * or dropped.
1318 *
Michael Bueschd0f5afb2008-02-12 20:12:45 +01001319 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
1320 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
1321 * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
1322 * the flag, but not clear it.
1323 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
1324 * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
1325 * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
1326 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1327 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1328 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1329 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
1330 * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.
