40 * This file declares the user/kernel protocol that is spoken over
41 * Generic Netlink, as well as any type declaration that is to be used
42 * by kernel and user space.
44 * It is intended for user space to clone it verbatim to use it as a
45 * primary reference for definitions.
47 * Stuff intended for kernel usage as well as full protocol and stack
48 * documentation is rooted in include/net/wimax.h.

136 * enum wimax_st - The different states of a WiMAX device
137 * @__WIMAX_ST_NULL: The device structure has been allocated and zeroed,
138 * but still wimax_dev_add() hasn't been called. There is no state.
140 * @WIMAX_ST_DOWN: The device has been registered with the WiMAX and
141 * networking stacks, but it is not initialized (normally that is
142 * done with 'ifconfig DEV up' [or equivalent], which can upload
143 * firmware and enable communications with the device).
144 * In this state, the device is powered down and using as less
145 * power as possible.
146 * This state is the default after a call to wimax_dev_add(). It
147 * is ok to have drivers move directly to %WIMAX_ST_UNINITIALIZED
148 * or %WIMAX_ST_RADIO_OFF in _probe() after the call to
149 * wimax_dev_add().
150 * It is recommended that the driver leaves this state when
151 * calling 'ifconfig DEV up' and enters it back on 'ifconfig DEV
152 * down'.
154 * @__WIMAX_ST_QUIESCING: The device is being torn down, so no API
155 * operations are allowed to proceed except the ones needed to
156 * complete the device clean up process.
158 * @WIMAX_ST_UNINITIALIZED: [optional] Communication with the device
159 * is setup, but the device still requires some configuration
160 * before being operational.
161 * Some WiMAX API calls might work.
163 * @WIMAX_ST_RADIO_OFF: The device is fully up; radio is off (wether
164 * by hardware or software switches).
165 * It is recommended to always leave the device in this state
166 * after initialization.
168 * @WIMAX_ST_READY: The device is fully up and radio is on.
170 * @WIMAX_ST_SCANNING: [optional] The device has been instructed to
171 * scan. In this state, the device cannot be actively connected to
172 * a network.
174 * @WIMAX_ST_CONNECTING: The device is connecting to a network. This
175 * state exists because in some devices, the connect process can
176 * include a number of negotiations between user space, kernel
177 * space and the device. User space needs to know what the device
178 * is doing. If the connect sequence in a device is atomic and
179 * fast, the device can transition directly to CONNECTED
181 * @WIMAX_ST_CONNECTED: The device is connected to a network.
183 * @__WIMAX_ST_INVALID: This is an invalid state used to mark the
184 * maximum numeric value of states.
186 * Description:
188 * Transitions from one state to another one are atomic and can only
189 * be caused in kernel space with wimax_state_change(). To read the
190 * state, use wimax_state_get().
192 * States starting with __ are internal and shall not be used or
193 * referred to by drivers or userspace. They look ugly, but that's the
194 * point -- if any use is made non-internal to the stack, it is easier
195 * to catch on review.
197 * All API operations [with well defined exceptions] will take the
198 * device mutex before starting and then check the state. If the state
199 * is %__WIMAX_ST_NULL, %WIMAX_ST_DOWN, %WIMAX_ST_UNINITIALIZED or
200 * %__WIMAX_ST_QUIESCING, it will drop the lock and quit with
201 * -%EINVAL, -%ENOMEDIUM, -%ENOTCONN or -%ESHUTDOWN.
203 * The order of the definitions is important, so we can do numerical
204 * comparisons (eg: < %WIMAX_ST_RADIO_OFF means the device is not ready
205 * to operate).
208 * The allowed state transitions are described in the table below
209 * (states in rows can go to states in columns where there is an X):
211 * UNINI RADIO READY SCAN CONNEC CONNEC
212 * NULL DOWN QUIESCING TIALIZED OFF NING TING TED
213 * NULL - x
214 * DOWN - x x x
215 * QUIESCING x -
216 * UNINITIALIZED x - x
217 * RADIO_OFF x - x
218 * READY x x - x x x
219 * SCANNING x x x - x x
220 * CONNECTING x x x x - x
221 * CONNECTED x x x -
223 * This table not available in kernel-doc because the formatting messes it up.
