72 * DOC: Time Events - what is it?
74 * Time Events are a fw feature that allows the driver to control the presence
75 * of the device on the channel. Since the fw supports multiple channels
76 * concurrently, the fw may choose to jump to another channel at any time.
77 * In order to make sure that the fw is on a specific channel at a certain time
78 * and for a certain duration, the driver needs to issue a time event.
80 * The simplest example is for BSS association. The driver issues a time event,
81 * waits for it to start, and only then tells mac80211 that we can start the
82 * association. This way, we make sure that the association will be done
83 * smoothly and won't be interrupted by channel switch decided within the fw.
86 /**
87 * DOC: The flow against the fw
89 * When the driver needs to make sure we are in a certain channel, at a certain
90 * time and for a certain duration, it sends a Time Event. The flow against the
91 * fw goes like this:
92 * 1) Driver sends a TIME_EVENT_CMD to the fw
93 * 2) Driver gets the response for that command. This response contains the
94 * Unique ID (UID) of the event.
95 * 3) The fw sends notification when the event starts.
97 * Of course the API provides various options that allow to cover parameters
98 * of the flow.
99 * What is the duration of the event?
100 * What is the start time of the event?
101 * Is there an end-time for the event?
102 * How much can the event be delayed?
103 * Can the event be split?
104 * If yes what is the maximal number of chunks?
105 * etc...
109 * DOC: Abstraction to the driver
111 * In order to simplify the use of time events to the rest of the driver,
112 * we abstract the use of time events. This component provides the functions
113 * needed by the driver.

117 #define IWL_MVM_TE_SESSION_PROTECTION_MIN_TIME_MS 400
120 * iwl_mvm_protect_session - start / extend the session protection.
121 * @mvm: the mvm component
122 * @vif: the virtual interface for which the session is issued
123 * @duration: the duration of the session in TU.
124 * @min_duration: will start a new session if the current session will end
125 * in less than min_duration.
127 * This function can be used to start a session protection which means that the
128 * fw will stay on the channel for %duration_ms milliseconds. This function
129 * will block (sleep) until the session starts. This function can also be used
130 * to extend a currently running session.
131 * This function is meant to be used for BSS association for example, where we
132 * want to make sure that the fw stays on the channel during the association.

139 * iwl_mvm_stop_session_protection - cancel the session protection.
140 * @mvm: the mvm component
141 * @vif: the virtual interface for which the session is issued
143 * This functions cancels the session protection which is an act of good
144 * citizenship. If it is not needed any more it should be cancelled because
145 * the other bindings wait for the medium during that time.
146 * This funtions doesn't sleep.

161 * @vif: the virtual interface for which the roc is requested. It is assumed
162 * that the vif type is NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_DEVICE
163 * @duration: the requested duration in millisecond for the fw to be on the
164 * channel that is bound to the vif.
165 * @type: the remain on channel request type
167 * This function can be used to issue a remain on channel session,
168 * which means that the fw will stay in the channel for the request %duration
169 * milliseconds. The function is async, meaning that it only issues the ROC
170 * request but does not wait for it to start. Once the FW is ready to serve the
171 * ROC request, it will issue a notification to the driver that it is on the
172 * requested channel. Once the FW completes the ROC request it will issue
173 * another notification to the driver.

179 * iwl_mvm_stop_p2p_roc - stop remain on channel for p2p device functionlity
180 * @mvm: the mvm component
182 * This function can be used to cancel an ongoing ROC session.
183 * The function is async, it will instruct the FW to stop serving the ROC
184 * session, but will not wait for the actual stopping of the session.
