  \brief vos_pkt_get_packet() - Get a voss Packet

  Gets a voss Packet from an internally managed packet pool.

  \param ppPacket - pointer to location where the voss Packet pointer is
                    returned.  If multiple packets are requested, they
                    will be chained onto this first packet.

  \param pktType - the packet type to be retreived.  Valid packet types are:
     <ul>
       <li> VOS_PKT_TYPE_TX_802_11_MGMT - voss packet is for Transmitting
            802.11 Management frames.

       <li> VOS_PKT_TYPE_RX_RAW - voss Packet contains a buffer for Receiving
            raw frames of unknown type.
     </ul>

  \param dataSize - the Data size needed in the voss Packet.

  \param numPackets - the number of packets requested.

  \param zeroBuffer - parameter that tells the API to zero the data buffer
                      in this voss Packet.
     <ul>
       <li> VOS_TRUE - the API will zero out the entire data buffer.

       <li> VOS_FALSE - the API will not zero out the data buffer.
     </ul>

  \note If enough room for headers to transmit or receive the packet is not
        available, this API will fail.

  \param callback - This callback function, if provided, is invoked in the
         case when resources are not available at the time of the call to
         get packets.  This callback function is invoked when packets are
         available.

  \param userData - This user data is passed back to the caller in the
         callback function, if the callback is invoked.

  \return VOS_STATUS_SUCCESS - the API was able to get a vos_packet for the
          requested type.  *ppPacket contains a pointer to the packet.

          VOS_STATUS_E_INVAL - pktType is not a valid packet type.  This
          API only supports getting vos packets for 802_11_MGMT and
          RX_RAW packet types.  This status is also returned if the
          numPackets or dataSize are invalid.

          VOS_STATUS_E_RESOURCES - unable to get resources needed to get
          a vos packet.  If a callback function is specified and this
          status is returned from the API, the callback will be called
          when resources are available to fulfill the original request.

          Note that the low resources condition is indicated to the caller
          by returning VOS_STATUS_E_RESOURCES.  This status is the only
          non-success status that indicates to the caller that the callback
          will be called when resources are available.  All other status
          indicate failures that are not recoverable and the 'callback'
          will not be called.

          VOS_STATUS_E_FAILURE - The API returns this status when unable
          to get a packet from the packet pool because the pool
          is depleted and the caller did not specify a low resource callback.

          VOS_STATUS_E_ALREADY - This status is returned when the VOS
          packet pool is in a 'low resource' condition and cannot
          accomodate any more calls to retrieve packets from that
          pool.   Note this is a FAILURE and the 'low resource' callback

  \brief vos_pkt_wrap_data_packets() - Wrap an OS provided data packet in a
         vos packet.

  Takes as input an OS provided data packet and 'wraps' that packet in a
  vos_packet, returning the vos_packet to the caller.

  This function is intended to be called from the HDD to wrap Tx data packets
  from the OS into vos_packets before sending them to TL for transmission.

  \param ppPacket - pointer to location where the voss Packet pointer is
                    returned.  If multiple packets are requested, they
                    will be chained onto this first packet.

  \param pktType - the packet type to be retreived.  Valid packet types are:
     <ul>
       <li> VOS_PKT_TYPE_802_3_DATA - voss packet is for Transmitting 802.3
            data frames.

       <li> VOS_PKT_TYPE_802_11_DATA - voss Packet is for Transmitting 802.11
            data frames.
     </ul>

  \param pOSPacket - a pointer to the Transmit packet provided by the OS.  This
         OS provided packet will be wrapped into a vos_packet_t.  Note this
         OS packet pointer can be NULL.  The OS packet pointer can be inserted
         into a VOS packet of type VOS_PKT_TYPE_802_3_DATA or
         VOS_PKT_TYPE_802_11_DATA through vos_pkt_set_os_packet().

  \note If enough room for headers to transmit or receive the packet is not
        available, this API will fail.

  \param callback - This callback function, if provided, is invoked in the
         case where packets are not available at the time of the call to
         return the packets to the caller (a 'low resource' condition).

         When packets become available, the callback callback function is
         invoked to return a VOS packet to the caller.  Note that the
         OS Packet is *not* inserted into the VOS packet when it is returned
         to the low resource callback.  It is up to the caller to insert
         the OS packet into the VOS packet by calling vos_pkt_set_os_packet()

  \param userData - This user data is passed back to the caller in the
         callback function, if the callback is invoked.

  \return VOS_STATUS_SUCCESS - the API was able to get a vos_packet for the
          requested type.  *ppPacket contains a pointer to the packet.

          VOS_STATUS_E_INVAL - pktType is not a valid packet type.  This
          API only supports getting vos packets for 802_11_MGMT and
          RX_RAW packet types.

          VOS_STATUS_E_RESOURCES - unable to get resources needed to get
          a vos packet.  If a callback function is specified and this
          status is returned from the API, the callback will be called
          when resources are available to fulfill the original request.

          Note that the low resources condition is indicated to the caller
          by returning VOS_STATUS_E_RESOURCES.  This status is the only
          non-success status that indicates to the caller that the callback
          will be called when resources are available.  All other status
          indicate failures that are not recoverable and the 'callback'
          will not be called.

          VOS_STATUS_E_FAILURE - The API returns this status when unable
          to get a packet from the packet pool because the pool
          is depleted and the caller did not specify a low resource callback.

          VOS_STATUS_E_ALREADY - This status is returned when the VOS
          packet pool is in a 'low resource' condition and cannot
          accomodate any more calls to retrieve packets from that
          pool.   Note this is a FAILURE and the 'low resource' callback
          will *not* be called.

          VOS_STATUS_E_FAULT - ppPacket or pOSPacket do not specify valid
          pointers.

  \brief vos_pkt_set_os_packet() - set the OS packet in a VOS data packet

  This API inserts an OS packet into a previously retreived VOS packet.
  This API only applies to VOS packets of type VOS_PKT_TYPE_802_3_DATA or
  VOS_PKT_TYPE_802_11_DATA.

  There are cases where a user will need to get a VOS data packet without
  having the OS packet to insert/wrap into the data packet. This could happen
  if the user calls vos_pkt_wrap_data_packet() without the OS packet.

  Also, when the user hit a 'low resource' situation for data packets, the
  low resource callback is going to return a VOS packet without an OS packet
  attached to it.  The caller who gets the packet through the low resource
  callback uses this API to insert an OS packet into the VOS packet that
  was returned through the low resource callback.

  \param pPacket - the voss Packet to insert the OS packet into.

  \param pOSPacket - a pointer to the Transmit packet provided by the OS.  This
         OS provided packet will be wrapped into a vos_packet_t.  Note this
         OS packet pointer can be NULL.  The OS packet pointer can be inserted
         into a VOS packet of type VOS_PKT_TYPE_802_3_DATA or

         Caller beware.  If there is a valid OS packet wrapped into this

         with the new one specified on this API call.  If you need to determine

  identified by a user "ID" and should only be accessed by the component
  specified.

  Note:  The size of the user data areas in the voss Packet are fixed.  The

  \param pPacket - the voss Packet to set the user pointer.

                  to set.

                  User IDs and user data areas in the voss Packet are
