26 *
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
30 * drivers.

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.

79 * The workqueue is a single threaded workqueue and can only be accessed by

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001045 * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware
1046 * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.
1047 *
1048 * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1049 * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
Johannes Bergdc822b52008-12-29 12:55:09 +01001050 * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1051 * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1052 * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001053 * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1054 * VLANs are configured for an access point.
1055 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001056 * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1057 * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1058 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1059 *
1060 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1061 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1062 * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
1063 * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
1064 *
1065 * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
1066 *
1067 * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
1068 * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
1069 * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
1070 * based on the receive flags.
1071 *
1072 * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
1073 * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
1074 * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
1075 * keys.
Emmanuel Grumbach9ae4fda2008-03-20 15:06:42 +02001076 *
1077 * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
1078 * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
1079 * handler.
1080 * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
1081 * This happens everytime the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
1082 * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
1083 * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
Bob Copelande37d4df2008-10-20 21:20:27 -04001084 * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
Emmanuel Grumbach9ae4fda2008-03-20 15:06:42 +02001085 * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.

Johannes Berg4be8c382009-01-07 18:28:20 +01001089 * DOC: Powersave support
1090 *
1091 * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
1092 *
1093 * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by
1094 * itself, such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1095 * hardware flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired
1096 * powersave mode depending on the association status, and the driver
1097 * must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary, i.e. when
1098 * entering and leaving powersave mode. The driver is required to look at
1099 * the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when it finds
1100 * traffic directed to it. This mode supports dynamic PS by simply
1101 * enabling/disabling PS.
1102 *
1103 * Additionally, such hardware may set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS
1104 * flag to indicate that it can support dynamic PS mode itself (see below).
1105 *
1106 * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1107 * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1108 * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1109 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
Johannes Berg955394c2009-04-16 17:04:25 +02001110 * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
1111 * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
1112 * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow.
Johannes Berg4be8c382009-01-07 18:28:20 +01001113 *
1114 * Dynamic powersave mode is an extension to normal powersave mode in which
1115 * the hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending
1116 * a frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed
1117 * to the next wakeup. This can either be supported by hardware, in which case
1118 * the driver needs to look at the @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration
1119 * value, or by the stack if all nullfunc handling is in the stack.

Kalle Valo04de8382009-03-22 21:57:35 +02001123 * DOC: Beacon filter support
1124 *
1125 * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1126 * which will reduce system power consumption. It usuallly works so that
1127 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1128 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
1129 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
1130 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1131 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1132 *
Johannes Berg955394c2009-04-16 17:04:25 +02001133 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTER
1134 * hardware capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
1135 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
1136 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
1137 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
1138 *
1139 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
1140 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
1141 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
1142 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
1143 *
1144 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
1145 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
1146 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
1147 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
1148 * - a list of information element IDs
1149 * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
1150 *
1151 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
1152 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
1153 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
1154 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
1155 * vendor information elements.
1156 *
1157 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
1158 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
1159 *
1160 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
1161 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
1162 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
1163 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
1164 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
1165 * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
1166 *
1167 *
1168 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
1169 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
1170 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
1171 * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
1172 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
1173 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
1174 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
1175 * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
1176 *
1177 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
1178 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
1179 * signal strength threshold checking.

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001183 * DOC: Frame filtering
1184 *
1185 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
1186 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
1187 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
1188 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1189 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1190 *
1191 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
1192 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
1193 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
1194 *
1195 * The configure_filter() callback is invoked with the parameters
1196 * @mc_count and @mc_list for the combined multicast address list
1197 * of all virtual interfaces, @changed_flags telling which flags
1198 * were changed and @total_flags with the new flag states.
1199 *
1200 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
1201 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
1202 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
1203 * or dropped.
1204 *
Michael Bueschd0f5afb2008-02-12 20:12:45 +01001205 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
1206 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
1207 * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
1208 * the flag, but not clear it.
1209 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
1210 * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
1211 * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
1212 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1213 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1214 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1215 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
1216 * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.

1286 * struct ieee80211_ops - callbacks from mac80211 to the driver
1287 *
1288 * This structure contains various callbacks that the driver may
1289 * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
1290 * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
1291 *
1292 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
1293 * skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
1294 * The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
Johannes Bergeefce912008-05-17 00:57:13 +02001295 * configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
1296 * preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately, more
1297 * importantly, however, it must never fail for A-MPDU-queues.
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001298 * This function should return NETDEV_TX_OK except in very
1299 * limited cases.
Johannes Bergeefce912008-05-17 00:57:13 +02001300 * Must be implemented and atomic.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001301 *
1302 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
1303 * is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
1304 * frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
1305 * Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
1306 * or zero.
1307 * When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
1308 * to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
1309 * is added.
1310 * Must be implemented.
1311 *
1312 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
1313 * is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
1314 * it must turn off frame reception.)
1315 * May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
Luis R. Rodriguez42935ec2009-07-29 20:08:07 -04001316 * an interface. If you added any work onto the mac80211 workqueue
1317 * you should ensure to cancel it on this callback.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001318 * Must be implemented.
1319 *
1320 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
Bob Copelande37d4df2008-10-20 21:20:27 -04001321 * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001322 * and @stop must be implemented.
1323 * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
1324 * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
1325 * interface is given in the conf parameter.
1326 * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
1327 * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
1328 * Must be implemented.
1329 *
1330 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
1331 * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
1332 * and no monitor interfaces are present.
1333 * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
1334 * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
1335 * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
1336 * MAC address of the device going away.
1337 * Hence, this callback must be implemented.
1338 *
1339 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
1340 * function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001341 * This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
1342 * if it does.

Johannes Berg471b3ef2007-12-28 14:32:58 +01001344 * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
1345 * parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
1346 * level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
1347 * This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
1348 * for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
Reinette Chatred18ef292008-04-09 16:56:15 -07001349 * of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made.

1365 * This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
1366 * which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
1367 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001368 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
Johannes Berg8318d782008-01-24 19:38:38 +01001369 * the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
Kalle Valo9050bdd2009-03-22 21:57:21 +02001370 * configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
1371 * registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
Johannes Bergde95a542009-04-01 11:58:36 +02001372 * that power save is disabled.
1373 * The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
1374 * entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
1375 * at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
1376 * (extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
1377 * When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
1378 * note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
1379 * any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
