28 * DOC: Introduction
30 * mac80211 is the Linux stack for 802.11 hardware that implements
31 * only partial functionality in hard- or firmware. This document
32 * defines the interface between mac80211 and low-level hardware
33 * drivers.
36 /**
37 * DOC: Calling mac80211 from interrupts
39 * Only ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe() and ieee80211_rx_irqsafe() can be
40 * called in hardware interrupt context. The low-level driver must not call any
41 * other functions in hardware interrupt context. If there is a need for such
42 * call, the low-level driver should first ACK the interrupt and perform the
43 * IEEE 802.11 code call after this, e.g. from a scheduled workqueue or even
44 * tasklet function.
46 * NOTE: If the driver opts to use the _irqsafe() functions, it may not also
47 * use the non-IRQ-safe functions!
50 /**
51 * DOC: Warning
53 * If you're reading this document and not the header file itself, it will
54 * be incomplete because not all documentation has been converted yet.
57 /**
58 * DOC: Frame format
60 * As a general rule, when frames are passed between mac80211 and the driver,
61 * they start with the IEEE 802.11 header and include the same octets that are
62 * sent over the air except for the FCS which should be calculated by the
63 * hardware.
65 * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features:
67 * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload
68 * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware.
70 * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to
71 * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU.
74 /**
75 * DOC: mac80211 workqueue
77 * mac80211 provides its own workqueue for drivers and internal mac80211 use.
78 * The workqueue is a single threaded workqueue and can only be accessed by
79 * helpers for sanity checking. Drivers must ensure all work added onto the
80 * mac80211 workqueue should be cancelled on the driver stop() callback.
82 * mac80211 will flush the workqueue upon interface removal and during
83 * suspend.
85 * All work performed on the mac80211 workqueue must not acquire the RTNL lock.
89 /**
90 * DOC: mac80211 software tx queueing
92 * mac80211 uses an intermediate queueing implementation, designed to allow the
93 * driver to keep hardware queues short and to provide some fairness between
94 * different stations/interfaces.
96 * Drivers must provide the .wake_tx_queue driver operation by either
97 * linking it to ieee80211_handle_wake_tx_queue() or implementing a custom
98 * handler.
100 * Intermediate queues (struct ieee80211_txq) are kept per-sta per-tid, with
101 * another per-sta for non-data/non-mgmt and bufferable management frames, and
102 * a single per-vif queue for multicast data frames.
104 * The driver is expected to initialize its private per-queue data for stations
105 * and interfaces in the .add_interface and .sta_add ops.
107 * The driver can't access the internal TX queues (iTXQs) directly.
108 * Whenever mac80211 adds a new frame to a queue, it calls the .wake_tx_queue
109 * driver op.
110 * Drivers implementing a custom .wake_tx_queue op can get them by calling
111 * ieee80211_tx_dequeue(). Drivers using ieee80211_handle_wake_tx_queue() will
112 * simply get the individual frames pushed via the .tx driver operation.
114 * Drivers can optionally delegate responsibility for scheduling queues to
115 * mac80211, to take advantage of airtime fairness accounting. In this case, to
116 * obtain the next queue to pull frames from, the driver calls
117 * ieee80211_next_txq(). The driver is then expected to return the txq using
118 * ieee80211_return_txq().
120 * For AP powersave TIM handling, the driver only needs to indicate if it has
121 * buffered packets in the driver specific data structures by calling
122 * ieee80211_sta_set_buffered(). For frames buffered in the ieee80211_txq
123 * struct, mac80211 sets the appropriate TIM PVB bits and calls
124 * .release_buffered_frames().
125 * In that callback the driver is therefore expected to release its own
126 * buffered frames and afterwards also frames from the ieee80211_txq (obtained
127 * via the usual ieee80211_tx_dequeue).
131 * DOC: HW timestamping
133 * Timing Measurement and Fine Timing Measurement require accurate timestamps
134 * of the action frames TX/RX and their respective acks.
136 * To report hardware timestamps for Timing Measurement or Fine Timing
137 * Measurement frame RX, the low level driver should set the SKB's hwtstamp
138 * field to the frame RX timestamp and report the ack TX timestamp in the
139 * ieee80211_rx_status struct.
141 * Similarly, to report hardware timestamps for Timing Measurement or Fine
142 * Timing Measurement frame TX, the driver should set the SKB's hwtstamp field
143 * to the frame TX timestamp and report the ack RX timestamp in the
144 * ieee80211_tx_status struct.

591 * struct ieee80211_bss_conf - holds the BSS's changing parameters
593 * This structure keeps information about a BSS (and an association
594 * to that BSS) that can change during the lifetime of the BSS.
596 * @vif: reference to owning VIF
597 * @bss: the cfg80211 bss descriptor. Valid only for a station, and only
598 * when associated. Note: This contains information which is not
599 * necessarily authenticated. For example, information coming from probe
600 * responses.
601 * @addr: (link) address used locally
602 * @link_id: link ID, or 0 for non-MLO
603 * @htc_trig_based_pkt_ext: default PE in 4us units, if BSS supports HE
604 * @uora_exists: is the UORA element advertised by AP
605 * @uora_ocw_range: UORA element's OCW Range field
606 * @frame_time_rts_th: HE duration RTS threshold, in units of 32us
607 * @he_support: does this BSS support HE
608 * @twt_requester: does this BSS support TWT requester (relevant for managed
609 * mode only, set if the AP advertises TWT responder role)
610 * @twt_responder: does this BSS support TWT requester (relevant for managed
611 * mode only, set if the AP advertises TWT responder role)

616 * @use_short_slot: use short slot time (only relevant for ERP)
617 * @dtim_period: num of beacons before the next DTIM, for beaconing,
618 * valid in station mode only if after the driver was notified
619 * with the %BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_INFO flag, will be non-zero then.
620 * @sync_tsf: last beacon's/probe response's TSF timestamp (could be old
621 * as it may have been received during scanning long ago). If the
622 * HW flag %IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY is set, then this can
623 * only come from a beacon, but might not become valid until after
624 * association when a beacon is received (which is notified with the
625 * %BSS_CHANGED_DTIM flag.). See also sync_dtim_count important notice.
626 * @sync_device_ts: the device timestamp corresponding to the sync_tsf,
627 * the driver/device can use this to calculate synchronisation
628 * (see @sync_tsf). See also sync_dtim_count important notice.
629 * @sync_dtim_count: Only valid when %IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY
630 * is requested, see @sync_tsf/@sync_device_ts.
631 * IMPORTANT: These three sync_* parameters would possibly be out of sync
632 * by the time the driver will use them. The synchronized view is currently
633 * guaranteed only in certain callbacks.
634 * Note also that this is not used with MLD associations, mac80211 doesn't
635 * know how to track beacons for all of the links for this.
636 * @beacon_int: beacon interval
637 * @assoc_capability: capabilities taken from assoc resp
638 * @basic_rates: bitmap of basic rates, each bit stands for an

647 * @mu_group: VHT MU-MIMO group membership data
648 * @ht_operation_mode: HT operation mode like in &struct ieee80211_ht_operation.
649 * This field is only valid when the channel is a wide HT/VHT channel.
650 * Note that with TDLS this can be the case (channel is HT, protection must
651 * be used from this field) even when the BSS association isn't using HT.
652 * @cqm_rssi_thold: Connection quality monitor RSSI threshold, a zero value
653 * implies disabled. As with the cfg80211 callback, a change here should
654 * cause an event to be sent indicating where the current value is in
655 * relation to the newly configured threshold.
656 * @cqm_rssi_low: Connection quality monitor RSSI lower threshold, a zero value
657 * implies disabled. This is an alternative mechanism to the single
658 * threshold event and can't be enabled simultaneously with it.
659 * @cqm_rssi_high: Connection quality monitor RSSI upper threshold.
660 * @cqm_rssi_hyst: Connection quality monitor RSSI hysteresis
661 * @qos: This is a QoS-enabled BSS.
662 * @hidden_ssid: The SSID of the current vif is hidden. Only valid in AP-mode.
663 * @txpower: TX power in dBm. INT_MIN means not configured.
664 * @txpower_type: TX power adjustment used to control per packet Transmit
665 * Power Control (TPC) in lower driver for the current vif. In particular

668 * userspace), whereas TPC is disabled if %txpower_type is set to
669 * NL80211_TX_POWER_FIXED (use value configured from userspace)
670 * @p2p_noa_attr: P2P NoA attribute for P2P powersave
671 * @allow_p2p_go_ps: indication for AP or P2P GO interface, whether it's allowed
672 * to use P2P PS mechanism or not. AP/P2P GO is not allowed to use P2P PS
673 * if it has associated clients without P2P PS support.
674 * @max_idle_period: the time period during which the station can refrain from
675 * transmitting frames to its associated AP without being disassociated.
676 * In units of 1000 TUs. Zero value indicates that the AP did not include
677 * a (valid) BSS Max Idle Period Element.
678 * @protected_keep_alive: if set, indicates that the station should send an RSN
679 * protected frame to the AP to reset the idle timer at the AP for the
680 * station.
681 * @ftm_responder: whether to enable or disable fine timing measurement FTM
682 * responder functionality.

689 * nontransmitted BSSIDs
690 * @profile_periodicity: the least number of beacon frames need to be received
691 * in order to discover all the nontransmitted BSSIDs in the set.
692 * @he_oper: HE operation information of the BSS (AP/Mesh) or of the AP we are
693 * connected to (STA)
694 * @he_obss_pd: OBSS Packet Detection parameters.
695 * @he_bss_color: BSS coloring settings, if BSS supports HE
696 * @fils_discovery: FILS discovery configuration
697 * @unsol_bcast_probe_resp_interval: Unsolicited broadcast probe response
698 * interval.
699 * @beacon_tx_rate: The configured beacon transmit rate that needs to be passed

707 * @chanctx_conf: The channel context this interface is assigned to, or %NULL
708 * when it is not assigned. This pointer is RCU-protected due to the TX
709 * path needing to access it; even though the netdev carrier will always
710 * be off when it is %NULL there can still be races and packets could be
711 * processed after it switches back to %NULL.
712 * @color_change_active: marks whether a color change is ongoing.
713 * @color_change_color: the bss color that will be used after the change.
714 * @ht_ldpc: in AP mode, indicates interface has HT LDPC capability.
715 * @vht_ldpc: in AP mode, indicates interface has VHT LDPC capability.
716 * @he_ldpc: in AP mode, indicates interface has HE LDPC capability.
717 * @vht_su_beamformer: in AP mode, does this BSS support operation as an VHT SU
718 * beamformer
719 * @vht_su_beamformee: in AP mode, does this BSS support operation as an VHT SU
720 * beamformee
721 * @vht_mu_beamformer: in AP mode, does this BSS support operation as an VHT MU
722 * beamformer

730 * beamformer
731 * @he_full_ul_mumimo: does this BSS support the reception (AP) or transmission
732 * (non-AP STA) of an HE TB PPDU on an RU that spans the entire PPDU
733 * bandwidth
734 * @eht_su_beamformer: in AP-mode, does this BSS enable operation as an EHT SU
735 * beamformer
736 * @eht_su_beamformee: in AP-mode, does this BSS enable operation as an EHT SU
737 * beamformee
738 * @eht_mu_beamformer: in AP-mode, does this BSS enable operation as an EHT MU

740 * @eht_80mhz_full_bw_ul_mumimo: in AP-mode, does this BSS support the
741 * reception of an EHT TB PPDU on an RU that spans the entire PPDU
742 * bandwidth
743 * @bss_param_ch_cnt: in BSS-mode, the BSS params change count. This
744 * information is the latest known value. It can come from this link's
745 * beacon or from a beacon sent by another link.
746 * @bss_param_ch_cnt_link_id: in BSS-mode, the link_id to which the beacon
747 * that updated &bss_param_ch_cnt belongs. E.g. if link 1 doesn't hear
748 * its beacons, and link 2 sent a beacon with an RNR element that updated
749 * link 1's BSS params change count, then, link 1's
750 * bss_param_ch_cnt_link_id will be 2. That means that link 1 knows that
751 * link 2 was the link that updated its bss_param_ch_cnt value.
752 * In case link 1 hears its beacon again, bss_param_ch_cnt_link_id will
753 * be updated to 1, even if bss_param_ch_cnt didn't change. This allows
754 * the link to know that it heard the latest value from its own beacon
755 * (as opposed to hearing its value from another link's beacon).

857 * These flags are used with the @flags member of &ieee80211_tx_info.
859 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS: require TX status callback for this frame.
860 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ: The driver has to assign a sequence
861 * number to this frame, taking care of not overwriting the fragment
862 * number and increasing the sequence number only when the
863 * IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT flag is set. mac80211 will properly
864 * assign sequence numbers to QoS-data frames but cannot do so correctly
865 * for non-QoS-data and management frames because beacons need them from
866 * that counter as well and mac80211 cannot guarantee proper sequencing.
867 * If this flag is set, the driver should instruct the hardware to
868 * assign a sequence number to the frame or assign one itself. Cf. IEEE
869 * 802.11-2007 7.1.3.4.1 paragraph 3. This flag will always be set for
870 * beacons and always be clear for frames without a sequence number field.
871 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK: tell the low level not to wait for an ack
872 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT: clear powersave filter for destination
873 * station
874 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT: this is a first fragment of the frame
875 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_SEND_AFTER_DTIM: send this frame after DTIM beacon
876 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU: this frame should be sent as part of an A-MPDU
877 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_INJECTED: Frame was injected, internal to mac80211.
878 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED: The frame was not transmitted
879 * because the destination STA was in powersave mode. Note that to
880 * avoid race conditions, the filter must be set by the hardware or
881 * firmware upon receiving a frame that indicates that the station
882 * went to sleep (must be done on device to filter frames already on
883 * the queue) and may only be unset after mac80211 gives the OK for
884 * that by setting the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT (see above),
885 * since only then is it guaranteed that no more frames are in the
886 * hardware queue.
887 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK: Frame was acknowledged
888 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU: The frame was aggregated, so status
889 * is for the whole aggregation.
890 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU_NO_BACK: no block ack was returned,
891 * so consider using block ack request (BAR).
892 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_RATE_CTRL_PROBE: internal to mac80211, can be
893 * set by rate control algorithms to indicate probe rate, will
894 * be cleared for fragmented frames (except on the last fragment)
895 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_OFFCHAN_TX_OK: Internal to mac80211. Used to indicate
896 * that a frame can be transmitted while the queues are stopped for
897 * off-channel operation.
898 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_HW_80211_ENCAP: This frame uses hardware encapsulation
899 * (header conversion)
900 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRIED: completely internal to mac80211,
901 * used to indicate that a frame was already retried due to PS
902 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT: completely internal to mac80211,
903 * used to indicate frame should not be encrypted
904 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER: This frame is a response to a poll
905 * frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD) or a non-bufferable MMPDU and must
906 * be sent although the station is in powersave mode.
907 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES: More frames will be passed to the
908 * transmit function after the current frame, this can be used
909 * by drivers to kick the DMA queue only if unset or when the
910 * queue gets full.
911 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRANSMISSION: This frame is being retransmitted
912 * after TX status because the destination was asleep, it must not
913 * be modified again (no seqno assignment, crypto, etc.)
914 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_MLME_CONN_TX: This frame was transmitted by the MLME
915 * code for connection establishment, this indicates that its status
916 * should kick the MLME state machine.
917 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NL80211_FRAME_TX: Frame was requested through nl80211
918 * MLME command (internal to mac80211 to figure out whether to send TX
919 * status to user space)
920 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_LDPC: tells the driver to use LDPC for this frame
921 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_STBC: Enables Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) for this
922 * frame and selects the maximum number of streams that it can use.
923 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN: Marks this packet to be transmitted on
924 * the off-channel channel when a remain-on-channel offload is done
925 * in hardware -- normal packets still flow and are expected to be
926 * handled properly by the device.
927 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_TKIP_MIC_FAILURE: Marks this packet to be used for TKIP
928 * testing. It will be sent out with incorrect Michael MIC key to allow
929 * TKIP countermeasures to be tested.
930 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_CCK_RATE: This frame will be sent at non CCK rate.
931 * This flag is actually used for management frame especially for P2P
932 * frames not being sent at CCK rate in 2GHz band.
933 * @IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP: This packet marks the end of service period,
934 * when its status is reported the service period ends. For frames in
935 * an SP that mac80211 transmits, it is already set; for driver frames
936 * the driver may set this flag. It is also used to do the same for
937 * PS-Poll responses.
938 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_USE_MINRATE: This frame will be sent at lowest rate.
939 * This flag is used to send nullfunc frame at minimum rate when
940 * the nullfunc is used for connection monitoring purpose.
941 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_DONTFRAG: Don't fragment this packet even if it
942 * would be fragmented by size (this is optional, only used for
943 * monitor injection).
944 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_NOACK_TRANSMITTED: A frame that was marked with
945 * IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK has been successfully transmitted without
946 * any errors (like issues specific to the driver/HW).
947 * This flag must not be set for frames that don't request no-ack
948 * behaviour with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK.
950 * Note: If you have to add new flags to the enumeration, then don't
951 * forget to update %IEEE80211_TX_TEMPORARY_FLAGS when necessary.

1423 * @RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED: This frame was decrypted in hardware.
1424 * @RX_FLAG_MMIC_STRIPPED: the Michael MIC is stripped off this frame,
1425 * verification has been done by the hardware.
1426 * @RX_FLAG_IV_STRIPPED: The IV and ICV are stripped from this frame.
1427 * If this flag is set, the stack cannot do any replay detection
1428 * hence the driver or hardware will have to do that.
1429 * @RX_FLAG_PN_VALIDATED: Currently only valid for CCMP/GCMP frames, this
1430 * flag indicates that the PN was verified for replay protection.
1431 * Note that this flag is also currently only supported when a frame
1432 * is also decrypted (ie. @RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED must be set)
1433 * @RX_FLAG_DUP_VALIDATED: The driver should set this flag if it did
1434 * de-duplication by itself.
1435 * @RX_FLAG_FAILED_FCS_CRC: Set this flag if the FCS check failed on
1436 * the frame.
1437 * @RX_FLAG_FAILED_PLCP_CRC: Set this flag if the PCLP check failed on
1438 * the frame.
1439 * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
1440 * field) is valid if this field is non-zero, and the position
1441 * where the timestamp was sampled depends on the value.
1442 * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_START: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
1443 * field) is valid and contains the time the first symbol of the MPDU
1444 * was received. This is useful in monitor mode and for proper IBSS
1445 * merging.
1446 * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_END: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
1447 * field) is valid and contains the time the last symbol of the MPDU
1448 * (including FCS) was received.
1449 * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_PLCP_START: The timestamp passed in the RX status (@mactime
1450 * field) is valid and contains the time the SYNC preamble was received.
1451 * @RX_FLAG_MACTIME_IS_RTAP_TS64: The timestamp passed in the RX status @mactime
1452 * is only for use in the radiotap timestamp header, not otherwise a valid
1453 * @mactime value. Note this is a separate flag so that we continue to see
1454 * %RX_FLAG_MACTIME as unset. Also note that in this case the timestamp is
1455 * reported to be 64 bits wide, not just 32.
1456 * @RX_FLAG_NO_SIGNAL_VAL: The signal strength value is not present.
1457 * Valid only for data frames (mainly A-MPDU)
1458 * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DETAILS: A-MPDU details are known, in particular the reference
1459 * number (@ampdu_reference) must be populated and be a distinct number for
1460 * each A-MPDU
1461 * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_LAST_KNOWN: last subframe is known, should be set on all
1462 * subframes of a single A-MPDU
1463 * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_IS_LAST: this subframe is the last subframe of the A-MPDU
1464 * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_DELIM_CRC_ERROR: A delimiter CRC error has been detected
1465 * on this subframe
1466 * @RX_FLAG_MIC_STRIPPED: The mic was stripped of this packet. Decryption was
1467 * done by the hardware
1468 * @RX_FLAG_ONLY_MONITOR: Report frame only to monitor interfaces without
1469 * processing it in any regular way.
1470 * This is useful if drivers offload some frames but still want to report
1471 * them for sniffing purposes.
1472 * @RX_FLAG_SKIP_MONITOR: Process and report frame to all interfaces except
1473 * monitor interfaces.
1474 * This is useful if drivers offload some frames but still want to report
1475 * them for sniffing purposes.
1476 * @RX_FLAG_AMSDU_MORE: Some drivers may prefer to report separate A-MSDU
1477 * subframes instead of a one huge frame for performance reasons.
1478 * All, but the last MSDU from an A-MSDU should have this flag set. E.g.
1479 * if an A-MSDU has 3 frames, the first 2 must have the flag set, while
1480 * the 3rd (last) one must not have this flag set. The flag is used to
1481 * deal with retransmission/duplication recovery properly since A-MSDU
1482 * subframes share the same sequence number. Reported subframes can be
1483 * either regular MSDU or singly A-MSDUs. Subframes must not be
1484 * interleaved with other frames.
1485 * @RX_FLAG_RADIOTAP_TLV_AT_END: This frame contains radiotap TLVs in the
1486 * skb->data (before the 802.11 header).
1487 * If used, the SKB's mac_header pointer must be set to point
1488 * to the 802.11 header after the TLVs, and any padding added after TLV
1489 * data to align to 4 must be cleared by the driver putting the TLVs
1490 * in the skb.
1491 * @RX_FLAG_ALLOW_SAME_PN: Allow the same PN as same packet before.
1492 * This is used for AMSDU subframes which can have the same PN as
1493 * the first subframe.
1494 * @RX_FLAG_ICV_STRIPPED: The ICV is stripped from this frame. CRC checking must
1495 * be done in the hardware.
1496 * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_EOF_BIT: Value of the EOF bit in the A-MPDU delimiter for this
1497 * frame
1498 * @RX_FLAG_AMPDU_EOF_BIT_KNOWN: The EOF value is known
1499 * @RX_FLAG_RADIOTAP_HE: HE radiotap data is present

2457 * and holds pointers to various link STA's
2459 * @addr: MAC address
2460 * @aid: AID we assigned to the station if we're an AP
2461 * @max_rx_aggregation_subframes: maximal amount of frames in a single AMPDU
2462 * that this station is allowed to transmit to us.

2472 * @rates: rate control selection table
2473 * @tdls: indicates whether the STA is a TDLS peer

2475 * valid if the STA is a TDLS peer in the first place.
2476 * @mfp: indicates whether the STA uses management frame protection or not.
2477 * @mlo: indicates whether the STA is MLO station.

2479 * A-MSDU. Taken from the Extended Capabilities element. 0 means
2480 * unlimited.
2481 * @cur: currently valid data as aggregated from the active links
2482 * For non MLO STA it will point to the deflink data. For MLO STA
2483 * ieee80211_sta_recalc_aggregates() must be called to update it.
2484 * @support_p2p_ps: indicates whether the STA supports P2P PS mechanism or not.
2485 * @txq: per-TID data TX queues; note that the last entry (%IEEE80211_NUM_TIDS)
2486 * is used for non-data frames
2487 * @deflink: This holds the default link STA information, for non MLO STA all link
2488 * specific STA information is accessed through @deflink or through
2489 * link[0] which points to address of @deflink. For MLO Link STA
2490 * the first added link STA will point to deflink.
2491 * @link: reference to Link Sta entries. For Non MLO STA, except 1st link,
2492 * i.e link[0] all links would be assigned to NULL by default and
2493 * would access link information via @deflink or link[0]. For MLO
2494 * STA, first link STA being added will point its link pointer to
2495 * @deflink address and remaining would be allocated and the address
2496 * would be assigned to link[link_id] where link_id is the id assigned
2497 * by the AP.
2498 * @valid_links: bitmap of valid links, or 0 for non-MLO

2602 * These flags are used to indicate hardware capabilities to

2604 * done in a way that the simplest hardware doesn't need setting
2605 * any particular flags. There are some exceptions to this rule,
2606 * however, so you are advised to review these flags carefully.
2608 * @IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL:
2609 * The hardware or firmware includes rate control, and cannot be
2610 * controlled by the stack. As such, no rate control algorithm
2611 * should be instantiated, and the TX rate reported to userspace
2612 * will be taken from the TX status instead of the rate control
2613 * algorithm.
2614 * Note that this requires that the driver implement a number of
2615 * callbacks so it has the correct information, it needs to have
2616 * the @set_rts_threshold callback and must look at the BSS config
2617 * @use_cts_prot for G/N protection, @use_short_slot for slot
2618 * timing in 2.4 GHz and @use_short_preamble for preambles for
2619 * CCK frames.
2621 * @IEEE80211_HW_RX_INCLUDES_FCS:
2622 * Indicates that received frames passed to the stack include
2623 * the FCS at the end.
2625 * @IEEE80211_HW_HOST_BROADCAST_PS_BUFFERING:
2626 * Some wireless LAN chipsets buffer broadcast/multicast frames
2627 * for power saving stations in the hardware/firmware and others
2628 * rely on the host system for such buffering. This option is used
2629 * to configure the IEEE 802.11 upper layer to buffer broadcast and
2630 * multicast frames when there are power saving stations so that
2631 * the driver can fetch them with ieee80211_get_buffered_bc().
2633 * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC:
2634 * Hardware can provide signal values but we don't know its units. We
2635 * expect values between 0 and @max_signal.
2636 * If possible please provide dB or dBm instead.
2638 * @IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM:
2639 * Hardware gives signal values in dBm, decibel difference from
2640 * one milliwatt. This is the preferred method since it is standardized
2641 * between different devices. @max_signal does not need to be set.
2643 * @IEEE80211_HW_SPECTRUM_MGMT:
2644 * Hardware supports spectrum management defined in 802.11h
2645 * Measurement, Channel Switch, Quieting, TPC
2647 * @IEEE80211_HW_AMPDU_AGGREGATION:
2648 * Hardware supports 11n A-MPDU aggregation.
2650 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS:
2651 * Hardware has power save support (i.e. can go to sleep).
2653 * @IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK:
2654 * Hardware requires nullfunc frame handling in stack, implies
2655 * stack support for dynamic PS.
2657 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS:
2658 * Hardware has support for dynamic PS.
2660 * @IEEE80211_HW_MFP_CAPABLE:
2661 * Hardware supports management frame protection (MFP, IEEE 802.11w).
2663 * @IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS:
2664 * Hardware can provide ack status reports of Tx frames to
2665 * the stack.
2667 * @IEEE80211_HW_CONNECTION_MONITOR:
2668 * The hardware performs its own connection monitoring, including
2669 * periodic keep-alives to the AP and probing the AP on beacon loss.
2671 * @IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_BEFORE_ASSOC:
2672 * This device needs to get data from beacon before association (i.e.
2673 * dtim_period).
2675 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PER_STA_GTK: The device's crypto engine supports
2676 * per-station GTKs as used by IBSS RSN or during fast transition. If
2677 * the device doesn't support per-station GTKs, but can be asked not
2678 * to decrypt group addressed frames, then IBSS RSN support is still
2679 * possible but software crypto will be used. Advertise the wiphy flag
2680 * only in that case.
2682 * @IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS: When operating in AP mode the device
2683 * autonomously manages the PS status of connected stations. When
2684 * this flag is set mac80211 will not trigger PS mode for connected
2685 * stations based on the PM bit of incoming frames.
2686 * Use ieee80211_start_ps()/ieee8021_end_ps() to manually configure
2687 * the PS mode of connected stations.
2689 * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_AMPDU_SETUP_IN_HW: The device handles TX A-MPDU session
2690 * setup strictly in HW. mac80211 should not attempt to do this in
2691 * software.
2693 * @IEEE80211_HW_WANT_MONITOR_VIF: The driver would like to be informed of
2694 * a virtual monitor interface when monitor interfaces are the only
2695 * active interfaces.
2697 * @IEEE80211_HW_NO_VIRTUAL_MONITOR: The driver would like to be informed
2698 * of any monitor interface, as well as their configured channel.
2699 * This is useful for supporting multiple monitor interfaces on different
2700 * channels.
2702 * @IEEE80211_HW_NO_AUTO_VIF: The driver would like for no wlanX to
2703 * be created. It is expected user-space will create vifs as
2704 * desired (and thus have them named as desired).
2706 * @IEEE80211_HW_SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL: The driver wants to control which of the
2707 * crypto algorithms can be done in software - so don't automatically
2708 * try to fall back to it if hardware crypto fails, but do so only if
2709 * the driver returns 1. This also forces the driver to advertise its
2710 * supported cipher suites.
2712 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORT_FAST_XMIT: The driver/hardware supports fast-xmit,
2713 * this currently requires only the ability to calculate the duration
2714 * for frames.
2716 * @IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL: The driver wants to control per-interface
2717 * queue mapping in order to use different queues (not just one per AC)
2718 * for different virtual interfaces. See the doc section on HW queue
2719 * control for more details.
2721 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_RC_TABLE: The driver supports using a rate
2722 * selection table provided by the rate control algorithm.
2724 * @IEEE80211_HW_P2P_DEV_ADDR_FOR_INTF: Use the P2P Device address for any
2725 * P2P Interface. This will be honoured even if more than one interface
2726 * is supported.
2728 * @IEEE80211_HW_TIMING_BEACON_ONLY: Use sync timing from beacon frames
2729 * only, to allow getting TBTT of a DTIM beacon.
2731 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_HT_CCK_RATES: Hardware supports mixing HT/CCK rates
2732 * and can cope with CCK rates in an aggregation session (e.g. by not
2733 * using aggregation for such frames.)
2735 * @IEEE80211_HW_CHANCTX_STA_CSA: Support 802.11h based channel-switch (CSA)
2736 * for a single active channel while using channel contexts. When support
2737 * is not enabled the default action is to disconnect when getting the
2738 * CSA frame.
2740 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_CLONED_SKBS: The driver will never modify the payload
2741 * or tailroom of TX skbs without copying them first.
2743 * @IEEE80211_HW_SINGLE_SCAN_ON_ALL_BANDS: The HW supports scanning on all bands
2744 * in one command, mac80211 doesn't have to run separate scans per band.
2746 * @IEEE80211_HW_TDLS_WIDER_BW: The device/driver supports wider bandwidth
2747 * than then BSS bandwidth for a TDLS link on the base channel.
2749 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_AMSDU_IN_AMPDU: The driver supports receiving A-MSDUs
2750 * within A-MPDU.
2752 * @IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_TX_STATUS: The device/driver provides TX status
2753 * for sent beacons.
2755 * @IEEE80211_HW_NEEDS_UNIQUE_STA_ADDR: Hardware (or driver) requires that each
2756 * station has a unique address, i.e. each station entry can be identified
2757 * by just its MAC address; this prevents, for example, the same station
2758 * from connecting to two virtual AP interfaces at the same time.
2760 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_REORDERING_BUFFER: Hardware (or driver) manages the
2761 * reordering buffer internally, guaranteeing mac80211 receives frames in
2762 * order and does not need to manage its own reorder buffer or BA session
2763 * timeout.
2765 * @IEEE80211_HW_USES_RSS: The device uses RSS and thus requires parallel RX,
2766 * which implies using per-CPU station statistics.
2768 * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_AMSDU: Hardware (or driver) supports software aggregated
2769 * A-MSDU frames. Requires software tx queueing and fast-xmit support.
2770 * When not using minstrel/minstrel_ht rate control, the driver must
2771 * limit the maximum A-MSDU size based on the current tx rate by setting
2772 * max_rc_amsdu_len in struct ieee80211_sta.
2774 * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_FRAG_LIST: Hardware (or driver) supports sending frag_list
2775 * skbs, needed for zero-copy software A-MSDU.
2777 * @IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_LOW_ACK: The driver (or firmware) reports low ack event
2778 * by ieee80211_report_low_ack() based on its own algorithm. For such
2779 * drivers, mac80211 packet loss mechanism will not be triggered and driver
2780 * is completely depending on firmware event for station kickout.
2782 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_TX_FRAG: Hardware does fragmentation by itself.
2783 * The stack will not do fragmentation.
2784 * The callback for @set_frag_threshold should be set as well.
2786 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_TDLS_BUFFER_STA: Hardware supports buffer STA on
2787 * TDLS links.
2789 * @IEEE80211_HW_DOESNT_SUPPORT_QOS_NDP: The driver (or firmware) doesn't
2790 * support QoS NDP for AP probing - that's most likely a driver bug.
2792 * @IEEE80211_HW_BUFF_MMPDU_TXQ: use the TXQ for bufferable MMPDUs, this of
2793 * course requires the driver to use TXQs to start with.
2795 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_VHT_EXT_NSS_BW: (Hardware) rate control supports VHT
2796 * extended NSS BW (dot11VHTExtendedNSSBWCapable). This flag will be set if
2797 * the selected rate control algorithm sets %RATE_CTRL_CAPA_VHT_EXT_NSS_BW
2798 * but if the rate control is built-in then it must be set by the driver.
2799 * See also the documentation for that flag.
2801 * @IEEE80211_HW_STA_MMPDU_TXQ: use the extra non-TID per-station TXQ for all
2802 * MMPDUs on station interfaces. This of course requires the driver to use
2803 * TXQs to start with.
2805 * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_STATUS_NO_AMPDU_LEN: Driver does not report accurate A-MPDU
2806 * length in tx status information
2808 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_MULTI_BSSID: Hardware supports multi BSSID
2810 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_ONLY_HE_MULTI_BSSID: Hardware supports multi BSSID
2811 * only for HE APs. Applies if @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_MULTI_BSSID is set.
2813 * @IEEE80211_HW_AMPDU_KEYBORDER_SUPPORT: The card and driver is only
2814 * aggregating MPDUs with the same keyid, allowing mac80211 to keep Tx
2815 * A-MPDU sessions active while rekeying with Extended Key ID.
2817 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_TX_ENCAP_OFFLOAD: Hardware supports tx encapsulation

3215 * DOC: Hardware crypto acceleration
3217 * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware
3218 * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.
3220 * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
3221 * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
3222 * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
3223 * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
3224 * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
3225 * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
3226 * VLANs are configured for an access point.
3228 * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
3229 * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
3230 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
3232 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
3233 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
3234 * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
3235 * hardware key index. You are free to use the full u8 range.
3237 * Note that in the case that the @IEEE80211_HW_SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL flag is
3238 * set, mac80211 will not automatically fall back to software crypto if
3239 * enabling hardware crypto failed. The set_key() call may also return the
3240 * value 1 to permit this specific key/algorithm to be done in software.
3242 * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
3244 * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
3245 * for it has been uploaded to hardware. The stack will not make any
3246 * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
3247 * based on the receive flags.
3249 * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
3250 * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
3251 * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
3252 * keys.
3254 * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
3255 * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
3256 * handler.
3257 * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
3258 * This happens every time the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
3259 * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
3260 * rekeying); it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
3261 * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
3262 * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.
3264 * The set_default_unicast_key() call updates the default WEP key index
3265 * configured to the hardware for WEP encryption type. This is required
3266 * for devices that support offload of data packets (e.g. ARP responses).
3268 * Mac80211 drivers should set the @NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CAN_REPLACE_PTK0 flag
3269 * when they are able to replace in-use PTK keys according to the following
3270 * requirements:
3271 * 1) They do not hand over frames decrypted with the old key to mac80211
3272 once the call to set_key() with command %DISABLE_KEY has been completed,
3273 2) either drop or continue to use the old key for any outgoing frames queued
3274 at the time of the key deletion (including re-transmits),
3275 3) never send out a frame queued prior to the set_key() %SET_KEY command
3276 encrypted with the new key when also needing
3277 @IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_GENERATE_IV and
3278 4) never send out a frame unencrypted when it should be encrypted.
3279 Mac80211 will not queue any new frames for a deleted key to the driver.
3283 * DOC: Powersave support
3285 * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
3287 * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself;
3288 * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
3289 * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
3290 * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
3291 * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
3292 * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
3293 * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
3294 * it finds traffic directed to it.
3296 * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
3297 * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
3298 * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
3299 * up the hardware before issuing commands to the hardware and putting it
3300 * back to sleep at appropriate times.
3302 * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
3303 * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
3304 * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
3306 * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
3307 * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
3308 * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
3309 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
3310 * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
3311 * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
3312 * as best as it can; mac80211 is too slow to do that.
3314 * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
3315 * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
3316 * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
3317 * the next wakeup. It's a compromise of getting good enough latency when
3318 * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
3319 * periods.
3321 * Dynamic powersave is simply supported by mac80211 enabling and disabling
3322 * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
3323 * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
3324 * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
3325 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
3326 * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
3327 * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
3328 * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
3329 * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
3330 * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
3332 * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
3333 * %IEEE80211_VIF_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
3334 * uapsd parameter in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
3335 * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
3336 * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
3337 * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.
3339 * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with
3340 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK.
3344 * DOC: Beacon filter support
3346 * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
3347 * which will reduce system power consumption. It usually works so that
3348 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
3349 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
3350 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
3351 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
3352 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
3354 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER
3355 * interface capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
3356 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
3357 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
3358 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
3360 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
3361 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
3362 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
3363 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
3365 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
3366 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
3367 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
3368 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
3370 * - a list of information element IDs
3371 * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
3373 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
3374 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
3375 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
3376 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
3377 * vendor information elements.
3379 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
3380 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
3382 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead. Just make sure nothing
3383 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
3384 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
3385 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
3386 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
3387 * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
3390 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
3391 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
3392 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
3393 * the received data packets). This can consist of notifying the host when
3394 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
3395 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
3396 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
3397 * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
3399 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
3400 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
3401 * signal strength threshold checking.
3405 * DOC: Spatial multiplexing power save
3407 * SMPS (Spatial multiplexing power save) is a mechanism to conserve
3408 * power in an 802.11n implementation. For details on the mechanism
3409 * and rationale, please refer to 802.11 (as amended by 802.11n-2009)
3410 * "11.2.3 SM power save".
3412 * The mac80211 implementation is capable of sending action frames
3413 * to update the AP about the station's SMPS mode, and will instruct
3414 * the driver to enter the specific mode. It will also announce the
3415 * requested SMPS mode during the association handshake. Hardware
3416 * support for this feature is required, and can be indicated by
3417 * hardware flags.
3419 * The default mode will be "automatic", which nl80211/cfg80211
3420 * defines to be dynamic SMPS in (regular) powersave, and SMPS
3421 * turned off otherwise.
3423 * To support this feature, the driver must set the appropriate
3424 * hardware support flags, and handle the SMPS flag to the config()
3425 * operation. It will then with this mechanism be instructed to
3426 * enter the requested SMPS mode while associated to an HT AP.
3430 * DOC: Frame filtering
3432 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
3433 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
3434 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
3435 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
3436 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
3438 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
3439 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
3440 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
3442 * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
3443 * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
3444 * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
3445 * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
3446 * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
3447 * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
3448 * @total_flags with the new flag states.
3450 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
3451 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
3452 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
3453 * or dropped.
3455 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
3456 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
3457 * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
3458 * the flag, but not clear it.
3459 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
3460 * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
3461 * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
3462 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
3463 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
3464 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
3465 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
3466 * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.
3470 * DOC: AP support for powersaving clients
3472 * In order to implement AP and P2P GO modes, mac80211 has support for
3473 * client powersaving, both "legacy" PS (PS-Poll/null data) and uAPSD.
3474 * There currently is no support for sAPSD.
3476 * There is one assumption that mac80211 makes, namely that a client
3477 * will not poll with PS-Poll and trigger with uAPSD at the same time.
3478 * Both are supported, and both can be used by the same client, but
3479 * they can't be used concurrently by the same client. This simplifies
3480 * the driver code.
3482 * The first thing to keep in mind is that there is a flag for complete
3483 * driver implementation: %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS. If this flag is set,
3484 * mac80211 expects the driver to handle most of the state machine for
3485 * powersaving clients and will ignore the PM bit in incoming frames.
3486 * Drivers then use ieee80211_sta_ps_transition() to inform mac80211 of
3487 * stations' powersave transitions. In this mode, mac80211 also doesn't
3488 * handle PS-Poll/uAPSD.
3490 * In the mode without %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS, mac80211 will check the
3491 * PM bit in incoming frames for client powersave transitions. When a
3492 * station goes to sleep, we will stop transmitting to it. There is,
3493 * however, a race condition: a station might go to sleep while there is
3494 * data buffered on hardware queues. If the device has support for this
3495 * it will reject frames, and the driver should give the frames back to
3496 * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED flag set which will
3497 * cause mac80211 to retry the frame when the station wakes up. The
3498 * driver is also notified of powersave transitions by calling its
3499 * @sta_notify callback.
3501 * When the station is asleep, it has three choices: it can wake up,
3502 * it can PS-Poll, or it can possibly start a uAPSD service period.
3503 * Waking up is implemented by simply transmitting all buffered (and
3504 * filtered) frames to the station. This is the easiest case. When
3505 * the station sends a PS-Poll or a uAPSD trigger frame, mac80211
3506 * will inform the driver of this with the @allow_buffered_frames
3507 * callback; this callback is optional. mac80211 will then transmit
3508 * the frames as usual and set the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER
3509 * on each frame. The last frame in the service period (or the only
3510 * response to a PS-Poll) also has %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set to
3511 * indicate that it ends the service period; as this frame must have
3512 * TX status report it also sets %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS.
3513 * When TX status is reported for this frame, the service period is
3514 * marked has having ended and a new one can be started by the peer.
3516 * Additionally, non-bufferable MMPDUs can also be transmitted by
3517 * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER set in them.
3519 * Another race condition can happen on some devices like iwlwifi
3520 * when there are frames queued for the station and it wakes up
3521 * or polls; the frames that are already queued could end up being
3522 * transmitted first instead, causing reordering and/or wrong
3523 * processing of the EOSP. The cause is that allowing frames to be
3524 * transmitted to a certain station is out-of-band communication to
3525 * the device. To allow this problem to be solved, the driver can
3526 * call ieee80211_sta_block_awake() if frames are buffered when it
3527 * is notified that the station went to sleep. When all these frames
3528 * have been filtered (see above), it must call the function again
3529 * to indicate that the station is no longer blocked.
3531 * If the driver buffers frames in the driver for aggregation in any
3532 * way, it must use the ieee80211_sta_set_buffered() call when it is
3533 * notified of the station going to sleep to inform mac80211 of any
3534 * TIDs that have frames buffered. Note that when a station wakes up
3535 * this information is reset (hence the requirement to call it when
3536 * informed of the station going to sleep). Then, when a service
3537 * period starts for any reason, @release_buffered_frames is called
3538 * with the number of frames to be released and which TIDs they are
3539 * to come from. In this case, the driver is responsible for setting
3540 * the EOSP (for uAPSD) and MORE_DATA bits in the released frames.
3541 * To help the @more_data parameter is passed to tell the driver if
3542 * there is more data on other TIDs -- the TIDs to release frames
3543 * from are ignored since mac80211 doesn't know how many frames the
3544 * buffers for those TIDs contain.
3546 * If the driver also implement GO mode, where absence periods may
3547 * shorten service periods (or abort PS-Poll responses), it must
3548 * filter those response frames except in the case of frames that
3549 * are buffered in the driver -- those must remain buffered to avoid
3550 * reordering. Because it is possible that no frames are released
3551 * in this case, the driver must call ieee80211_sta_eosp()
3552 * to indicate to mac80211 that the service period ended anyway.
3554 * Finally, if frames from multiple TIDs are released from mac80211
3555 * but the driver might reorder them, it must clear & set the flags
3556 * appropriately (only the last frame may have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP)
3557 * and also take care of the EOSP and MORE_DATA bits in the frame.
3558 * The driver may also use ieee80211_sta_eosp() in this case.
3560 * Note that if the driver ever buffers frames other than QoS-data
3561 * frames, it must take care to never send a non-QoS-data frame as
3562 * the last frame in a service period, adding a QoS-nulldata frame
3563 * after a non-QoS-data frame if needed.
3567 * DOC: HW queue control
3569 * Before HW queue control was introduced, mac80211 only had a single static
3570 * assignment of per-interface AC software queues to hardware queues. This
3571 * was problematic for a few reasons:
3572 * 1) off-channel transmissions might get stuck behind other frames
3573 * 2) multiple virtual interfaces couldn't be handled correctly
3574 * 3) after-DTIM frames could get stuck behind other frames
3576 * To solve this, hardware typically uses multiple different queues for all
3577 * the different usages, and this needs to be propagated into mac80211 so it
3578 * won't have the same problem with the software queues.
3580 * Therefore, mac80211 now offers the %IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL capability
3581 * flag that tells it that the driver implements its own queue control. To do
3582 * so, the driver will set up the various queues in each &struct ieee80211_vif
3583 * and the offchannel queue in &struct ieee80211_hw. In response, mac80211 will
3584 * use those queue IDs in the hw_queue field of &struct ieee80211_tx_info and
3585 * if necessary will queue the frame on the right software queue that mirrors
3586 * the hardware queue.
3587 * Additionally, the driver has to then use these HW queue IDs for the queue
3588 * management functions (ieee80211_stop_queue() et al.)
3590 * The driver is free to set up the queue mappings as needed; multiple virtual
3591 * interfaces may map to the same hardware queues if needed. The setup has to
3592 * happen during add_interface or change_interface callbacks. For example, a
3593 * driver supporting station+station and station+AP modes might decide to have
3594 * 10 hardware queues to handle different scenarios:
3596 * 4 AC HW queues for 1st vif: 0, 1, 2, 3
3597 * 4 AC HW queues for 2nd vif: 4, 5, 6, 7
3598 * after-DTIM queue for AP: 8
3599 * off-channel queue: 9
3601 * It would then set up the hardware like this:
3602 * hw.offchannel_tx_hw_queue = 9
3604 * and the first virtual interface that is added as follows:
3605 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VO] = 0
3606 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VI] = 1
3607 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BE] = 2
3608 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BK] = 3
3609 * vif.cab_queue = 8 // if AP mode, otherwise %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
3610 * and the second virtual interface with 4-7.
3612 * If queue 6 gets full, for example, mac80211 would only stop the second
3613 * virtual interface's BE queue since virtual interface queues are per AC.
3615 * Note that the vif.cab_queue value should be set to %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
3616 * whenever the queue is not used (i.e. the interface is not in AP mode) if the
3617 * queue could potentially be shared since mac80211 will look at cab_queue when
3618 * a queue is stopped/woken even if the interface is not in AP mode.
3622 * enum ieee80211_filter_flags - hardware filter flags
3624 * These flags determine what the filter in hardware should be
3625 * programmed to let through and what should not be passed to the

3627 * but this has negative impact on power consumption.

3827 * struct ieee80211_ops - callbacks from mac80211 to the driver
3829 * This structure contains various callbacks that the driver may
3830 * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
3831 * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
3833 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
3834 * skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
3835 * The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
3836 * configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
3837 * preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately.
3838 * Must be atomic.
3840 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
3841 * is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
3842 * frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
3843 * Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
3844 * or zero.
3845 * When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
3846 * to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
3847 * is added.
3848 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
3850 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
3851 * is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
3852 * it must turn off frame reception.)
3853 * May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
3854 * an interface. If you added any work onto the mac80211 workqueue
3855 * you should ensure to cancel it on this callback.
3856 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
3858 * @suspend: Suspend the device; mac80211 itself will quiesce before and
3859 * stop transmitting and doing any other configuration, and then
3860 * ask the device to suspend. This is only invoked when WoWLAN is
3861 * configured, otherwise the device is deconfigured completely and
3862 * reconfigured at resume time.
3863 * The driver may also impose special conditions under which it
3864 * wants to use the "normal" suspend (deconfigure), say if it only
3865 * supports WoWLAN when the device is associated. In this case, it
3866 * must return 1 from this function.
3868 * @resume: If WoWLAN was configured, this indicates that mac80211 is
3869 * now resuming its operation, after this the device must be fully
3870 * functional again. If this returns an error, the only way out is
3871 * to also unregister the device. If it returns 1, then mac80211
3872 * will also go through the regular complete restart on resume.
3874 * @set_wakeup: Enable or disable wakeup when WoWLAN configuration is
3875 * modified. The reason is that device_set_wakeup_enable() is
3876 * supposed to be called when the configuration changes, not only
3877 * in suspend().
3879 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
3880 * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
3881 * and @stop must be implemented.
3882 * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
3883 * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
3884 * interface is given in the conf parameter.
3885 * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
3886 * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
3887 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
3889 * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback
3890 * is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be
3891 * switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep.
3892 * Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be
3893 * found by the interface iteration callbacks.
3895 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
3896 * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
3897 * and no monitor interfaces are present.
3898 * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
3899 * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
3900 * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
3901 * MAC address of the device going away.
3902 * Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.
3904 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
3905 * function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
3906 * This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
3907 * if it does. The callback can sleep.
3909 * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
3910 * parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
3911 * level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
3912 * This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
3913 * for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
3914 * of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback
3915 * can sleep.
3916 * Note: this callback is called if @vif_cfg_changed or @link_info_changed
3917 * are not implemented.
3919 * @vif_cfg_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to interface
3920 * (MLD) parameters from &struct ieee80211_vif_cfg that vary during the
3921 * lifetime of the interface (e.g. assoc status, IP addresses, etc.)
3922 * The @changed parameter indicates which value changed.
3923 * The callback can sleep.
3925 * @link_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to link
3926 * parameters from &struct ieee80211_bss_conf that are related to an
3927 * individual link. e.g. legacy/HT/VHT/... rate information.
3928 * The @changed parameter indicates which value changed, and the @link_id
3929 * parameter indicates the link ID. Note that the @link_id will be 0 for
3930 * non-MLO connections.
3931 * The callback can sleep.
3933 * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration.
3934 * This callback is optional, and its return value is passed
3935 * to configure_filter(). This callback must be atomic.
3937 * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
3938 * See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
3939 * This callback must be implemented and can sleep.
3941 * @config_iface_filter: Configure the interface's RX filter.
3942 * This callback is optional and is used to configure which frames
3943 * should be passed to mac80211. The filter_flags is the combination
3944 * of FIF_* flags. The changed_flags is a bit mask that indicates
3945 * which flags are changed.
3946 * This callback can sleep.
3948 * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
3949 * must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
3951 * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
3952 * This callback is only called between add_interface and
3953 * remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
3954 * is enabled.
3955 * Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
3956 * The callback can sleep.
3958 * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
3959 * This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
3960 * which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
3961 * The callback must be atomic.
3963 * @set_rekey_data: If the device supports GTK rekeying, for example while the
3964 * host is suspended, it can assign this callback to retrieve the data
3965 * necessary to do GTK rekeying, this is the KEK, KCK and replay counter.
3966 * After rekeying was done it should (for example during resume) notify
3967 * userspace of the new replay counter using ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify().
3969 * @set_default_unicast_key: Set the default (unicast) key index, useful for
3970 * WEP when the device sends data packets autonomously, e.g. for ARP
3971 * offloading. The index can be 0-3, or -1 for unsetting it.
3973 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
3974 * the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
3975 * configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
3976 * registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
3977 * that power save is disabled.
3978 * The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
3979 * entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
3980 * at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
3981 * (extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
3982 * When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
3983 * note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
3984 * any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
3985 * This callback is also allowed to return the special return value 1,
3986 * this indicates that hardware scan isn't desirable right now and a
3987 * software scan should be done instead. A driver wishing to use this
3988 * capability must ensure its (hardware) scan capabilities aren't
3989 * advertised as more capable than mac80211's software scan is.
3990 * The callback can sleep.
3992 * @cancel_hw_scan: Ask the low-level tp cancel the active hw scan.
3993 * The driver should ask the hardware to cancel the scan (if possible),
3994 * but the scan will be completed only after the driver will call
3995 * ieee80211_scan_completed().
3996 * This callback is needed for wowlan, to prevent enqueueing a new
3997 * scan_work after the low-level driver was already suspended.
3998 * The callback can sleep.
4000 * @sched_scan_start: Ask the hardware to start scanning repeatedly at
4001 * specific intervals. The driver must call the
4002 * ieee80211_sched_scan_results() function whenever it finds results.
4003 * This process will continue until sched_scan_stop is called.
4005 * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the hardware to stop an ongoing scheduled scan.
4006 * In this case, ieee80211_sched_scan_stopped() must not be called.
4008 * @sw_scan_start: Notifier function that is called just before a software scan
4009 * is started. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
4010 * The mac_addr parameter allows supporting NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_RANDOM_ADDR,
4011 * the driver may set the NL80211_FEATURE_SCAN_RANDOM_MAC_ADDR flag if it
4012 * can use this parameter. The callback can sleep.
4014 * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a
4015 * software scan finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need
4016 * this notification.
4017 * The callback can sleep.
4019 * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
4020 * Returns zero if statistics are available.
4021 * The callback can sleep.
4023 * @get_key_seq: If your device implements encryption in hardware and does
4024 * IV/PN assignment then this callback should be provided to read the
4025 * IV/PN for the given key from hardware.
4026 * The callback must be atomic.
4028 * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this
4029 * if the device does fragmentation by itself. Note that to prevent the
4030 * stack from doing fragmentation IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_TX_FRAG
4031 * should be set as well.
4032 * The callback can sleep.
4034 * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
4035 * The callback can sleep.
4037 * @sta_add: Notifies low level driver about addition of an associated station,
4038 * AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
4040 * @sta_remove: Notifies low level driver about removal of an associated
4041 * station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. Note that after the callback
4042 * returns it isn't safe to use the pointer, not even RCU protected;
4043 * no RCU grace period is guaranteed between returning here and freeing
4044 * the station. See @sta_pre_rcu_remove if needed.
4045 * This callback can sleep.
4047 * @vif_add_debugfs: Drivers can use this callback to add a debugfs vif
4048 * directory with its files. This callback should be within a
4049 * CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS conditional. This callback can sleep.
4051 * @link_add_debugfs: Drivers can use this callback to add debugfs files
4052 * when a link is added to a mac80211 vif. This callback should be within
4053 * a CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS conditional. This callback can sleep.
4054 * For non-MLO the callback will be called once for the default bss_conf
4055 * with the vif's directory rather than a separate subdirectory.
4057 * @sta_add_debugfs: Drivers can use this callback to add debugfs files
4058 * when a station is added to mac80211's station list. This callback
4059 * should be within a CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS conditional. This
4060 * callback can sleep.
4062 * @link_sta_add_debugfs: Drivers can use this callback to add debugfs files
4063 * when a link is added to a mac80211 station. This callback
4064 * should be within a CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS conditional. This
4065 * callback can sleep.
4066 * For non-MLO the callback will be called once for the deflink with the
4067 * station's directory rather than a separate subdirectory.
4069 * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about power state transition of an
4070 * associated station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. For a VIF operating
4071 * in AP mode, this callback will not be called when the flag
4072 * %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS is set. Must be atomic.
4074 * @sta_set_txpwr: Configure the station tx power. This callback set the tx
4075 * power for the station.
4076 * This callback can sleep.
4078 * @sta_state: Notifies low level driver about state transition of a
4079 * station (which can be the AP, a client, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc.)
4080 * This callback is mutually exclusive with @sta_add/@sta_remove.
4081 * It must not fail for down transitions but may fail for transitions
4082 * up the list of states. Also note that after the callback returns it
4083 * isn't safe to use the pointer, not even RCU protected - no RCU grace
4084 * period is guaranteed between returning here and freeing the station.
4085 * See @sta_pre_rcu_remove if needed.
4086 * The callback can sleep.
4088 * @sta_pre_rcu_remove: Notify driver about station removal before RCU
4089 * synchronisation. This is useful if a driver needs to have station
4090 * pointers protected using RCU, it can then use this call to clear
4091 * the pointers instead of waiting for an RCU grace period to elapse
4092 * in @sta_state.
4093 * The callback can sleep.
4095 * @link_sta_rc_update: Notifies the driver of changes to the bitrates that can
4096 * be used to transmit to the station. The changes are advertised with bits
4097 * from &enum ieee80211_rate_control_changed and the values are reflected
4098 * in the station data. This callback should only be used when the driver
4099 * uses hardware rate control (%IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL) since
4100 * otherwise the rate control algorithm is notified directly.
4101 * Must be atomic.
4102 * @sta_rate_tbl_update: Notifies the driver that the rate table changed. This
4103 * is only used if the configured rate control algorithm actually uses
4104 * the new rate table API, and is therefore optional. Must be atomic.
4106 * @sta_statistics: Get statistics for this station. For example with beacon
4107 * filtering, the statistics kept by mac80211 might not be accurate, so
4108 * let the driver pre-fill the statistics. The driver can fill most of
4109 * the values (indicating which by setting the filled bitmap), but not
4110 * all of them make sense - see the source for which ones are possible.
4111 * Statistics that the driver doesn't fill will be filled by mac80211.
4112 * The callback can sleep.
4114 * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
4115 * bursting) for a hardware TX queue.
4116 * Returns a negative error code on failure.
4117 * The callback can sleep.
4119 * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
4120 * this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a
4121 * required function.
4122 * The callback can sleep.
4124 * @set_tsf: Set the TSF timer to the specified value in the firmware/hardware.
4125 * Currently, this is only used for IBSS mode debugging. Is not a
4126 * required function.
4127 * The callback can sleep.
4129 * @offset_tsf: Offset the TSF timer by the specified value in the
4130 * firmware/hardware. Preferred to set_tsf as it avoids delay between
4131 * calling set_tsf() and hardware getting programmed, which will show up
4132 * as TSF delay. Is not a required function.
4133 * The callback can sleep.
4135 * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
4136 * with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
4137 * function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
4138 * TSF synchronization.
4139 * The callback can sleep.
4141 * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
4142 * This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
4143 * used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
4144 * Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon.
4145 * The callback can sleep.
4147 * @get_survey: Return per-channel survey information
4149 * @rfkill_poll: Poll rfkill hardware state. If you need this, you also
4150 * need to set wiphy->rfkill_poll to %true before registration,
4151 * and need to call wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state() in the callback.
4152 * The callback can sleep.
4154 * @set_coverage_class: Set slot time for given coverage class as specified
4155 * in IEEE 802.11-2007 section 17.3.8.6 and modify ACK timeout
4156 * accordingly; coverage class equals to -1 to enable ACK timeout
4157 * estimation algorithm (dynack). To disable dynack set valid value for
4158 * coverage class. This callback is not required and may sleep.
4160 * @testmode_cmd: Implement a cfg80211 test mode command. The passed @vif may
4161 * be %NULL. The callback can sleep.
4162 * @testmode_dump: Implement a cfg80211 test mode dump. The callback can sleep.
4164 * @flush: Flush all pending frames from the hardware queue, making sure
4165 * that the hardware queues are empty. The @queues parameter is a bitmap
4166 * of queues to flush, which is useful if different virtual interfaces
4167 * use different hardware queues; it may also indicate all queues.
4168 * If the parameter @drop is set to %true, pending frames may be dropped.
4169 * Note that vif can be NULL.
4170 * The callback can sleep.
4172 * @flush_sta: Flush or drop all pending frames from the hardware queue(s) for
4173 * the given station, as it's about to be removed.
4174 * The callback can sleep.
4176 * @channel_switch: Drivers that need (or want) to offload the channel
4177 * switch operation for CSAs received from the AP may implement this
4178 * callback. They must then call ieee80211_chswitch_done() to indicate
4179 * completion of the channel switch.
4181 * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device.
4182 * Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may
4183 * reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL
4184 * (also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX).
4186 * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant).
4188 * @remain_on_channel: Starts an off-channel period on the given channel, must
4189 * call back to ieee80211_ready_on_channel() when on that channel. Note
4190 * that normal channel traffic is not stopped as this is intended for hw
4191 * offload. Frames to transmit on the off-channel channel are transmitted
4192 * normally except for the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN flag. When the
4193 * duration (which will always be non-zero) expires, the driver must call
4194 * ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired().
4195 * Note that this callback may be called while the device is in IDLE and
4196 * must be accepted in this case.
4197 * This callback may sleep.
4198 * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Requests that an ongoing off-channel period is
4199 * aborted before it expires. This callback may sleep.
4201 * @set_ringparam: Set tx and rx ring sizes.
4203 * @get_ringparam: Get tx and rx ring current and maximum sizes.
4205 * @tx_frames_pending: Check if there is any pending frame in the hardware
4206 * queues before entering power save.
4208 * @set_bitrate_mask: Set a mask of rates to be used for rate control selection
4209 * when transmitting a frame. Currently only legacy rates are handled.
4210 * The callback can sleep.
4211 * @event_callback: Notify driver about any event in mac80211. See
4212 * &enum ieee80211_event_type for the different types.
4213 * The callback must be atomic.
4215 * @release_buffered_frames: Release buffered frames according to the given
4216 * parameters. In the case where the driver buffers some frames for
4217 * sleeping stations mac80211 will use this callback to tell the driver
4218 * to release some frames, either for PS-poll or uAPSD.
4219 * Note that if the @more_data parameter is %false the driver must check
4220 * if there are more frames on the given TIDs, and if there are more than
4221 * the frames being released then it must still set the more-data bit in
4222 * the frame. If the @more_data parameter is %true, then of course the
4223 * more-data bit must always be set.
4224 * The @tids parameter tells the driver which TIDs to release frames
4225 * from, for PS-poll it will always have only a single bit set.
4226 * In the case this is used for a PS-poll initiated release, the
4227 * @num_frames parameter will always be 1 so code can be shared. In
4228 * this case the driver must also set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
4229 * on the TX status (and must report TX status) so that the PS-poll
4230 * period is properly ended. This is used to avoid sending multiple
4231 * responses for a retried PS-poll frame.
4232 * In the case this is used for uAPSD, the @num_frames parameter may be
4233 * bigger than one, but the driver may send fewer frames (it must send
4234 * at least one, however). In this case it is also responsible for
4235 * setting the EOSP flag in the QoS header of the frames. Also, when the
4236 * service period ends, the driver must set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP
4237 * on the last frame in the SP. Alternatively, it may call the function
4238 * ieee80211_sta_eosp() to inform mac80211 of the end of the SP.
4239 * This callback must be atomic.
4240 * @allow_buffered_frames: Prepare device to allow the given number of frames
4241 * to go out to the given station. The frames will be sent by mac80211
4242 * via the usual TX path after this call. The TX information for frames
4243 * released will also have the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER flag set
4244 * and the last one will also have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set. In case
4245 * frames from multiple TIDs are released and the driver might reorder
4246 * them between the TIDs, it must set the %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
4247 * on the last frame and clear it on all others and also handle the EOSP
4248 * bit in the QoS header correctly. Alternatively, it can also call the
4249 * ieee80211_sta_eosp() function.
4250 * The @tids parameter is a bitmap and tells the driver which TIDs the
4251 * frames will be on; it will at most have two bits set.
4252 * This callback must be atomic.
4254 * @get_et_sset_count: Ethtool API to get string-set count.
4255 * Note that the wiphy mutex is not held for this callback since it's
4256 * expected to return a static value.
4258 * @get_et_stats: Ethtool API to get a set of u64 stats.
4260 * @get_et_strings: Ethtool API to get a set of strings to describe stats
4261 * and perhaps other supported types of ethtool data-sets.
4262 * Note that the wiphy mutex is not held for this callback since it's
4263 * expected to return a static value.
4265 * @mgd_prepare_tx: Prepare for transmitting a management frame for association
4266 * before associated. In multi-channel scenarios, a virtual interface is
4267 * bound to a channel before it is associated, but as it isn't associated
4268 * yet it need not necessarily be given airtime, in particular since any
4269 * transmission to a P2P GO needs to be synchronized against the GO's
4270 * powersave state. mac80211 will call this function before transmitting a
4271 * management frame prior to transmitting that frame to allow the driver
4272 * to give it channel time for the transmission, to get a response and be
4273 * able to synchronize with the GO.
4274 * The callback will be called before each transmission and upon return
4275 * mac80211 will transmit the frame right away.
4276 * Additional information is passed in the &struct ieee80211_prep_tx_info
4277 * data. If duration there is greater than zero, mac80211 hints to the
4278 * driver the duration for which the operation is requested.
4279 * The callback is optional and can (should!) sleep.
4280 * @mgd_complete_tx: Notify the driver that the response frame for a previously
4281 * transmitted frame announced with @mgd_prepare_tx was received, the data
4282 * is filled similarly to @mgd_prepare_tx though the duration is not used.
4284 * @mgd_protect_tdls_discover: Protect a TDLS discovery session. After sending
4285 * a TDLS discovery-request, we expect a reply to arrive on the AP's
4286 * channel. We must stay on the channel (no PSM, scan, etc.), since a TDLS
4287 * setup-response is a direct packet not buffered by the AP.
4288 * mac80211 will call this function just before the transmission of a TDLS
4289 * discovery-request. The recommended period of protection is at least
4290 * 2 * (DTIM period).
4291 * The callback is optional and can sleep.
4293 * @add_chanctx: Notifies device driver about new channel context creation.
4294 * This callback may sleep.
4295 * @remove_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context destruction.
4296 * This callback may sleep.
4297 * @change_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context changes that
4298 * may happen when combining different virtual interfaces on the same
4299 * channel context with different settings
4300 * This callback may sleep.
4301 * @assign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being bound
4302 * to vif. Possible use is for hw queue remapping.
4303 * This callback may sleep.
4304 * @unassign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being
4305 * unbound from vif.
4306 * This callback may sleep.
4307 * @switch_vif_chanctx: switch a number of vifs from one chanctx to
4308 * another, as specified in the list of
4309 * @ieee80211_vif_chanctx_switch passed to the driver, according
4310 * to the mode defined in &ieee80211_chanctx_switch_mode.
4311 * This callback may sleep.
4313 * @start_ap: Start operation on the AP interface, this is called after all the
4314 * information in bss_conf is set and beacon can be retrieved. A channel
4315 * context is bound before this is called. Note that if the driver uses
4316 * software scan or ROC, this (and @stop_ap) isn't called when the AP is
4317 * just "paused" for scanning/ROC, which is indicated by the beacon being
4318 * disabled/enabled via @bss_info_changed.
4319 * @stop_ap: Stop operation on the AP interface.
4321 * @reconfig_complete: Called after a call to ieee80211_restart_hw() and
4322 * during resume, when the reconfiguration has completed.
4323 * This can help the driver implement the reconfiguration step (and
4324 * indicate mac80211 is ready to receive frames).
4325 * This callback may sleep.
4327 * @ipv6_addr_change: IPv6 address assignment on the given interface changed.
4328 * Currently, this is only called for managed or P2P client interfaces.
4329 * This callback is optional; it must not sleep.
4331 * @channel_switch_beacon: Starts a channel switch to a new channel.
4332 * Beacons are modified to include CSA or ECSA IEs before calling this
4333 * function. The corresponding count fields in these IEs must be
4334 * decremented, and when they reach 1 the driver must call
4335 * ieee80211_csa_finish(). Drivers which use ieee80211_beacon_get()
4336 * get the csa counter decremented by mac80211, but must check if it is
4337 * 1 using ieee80211_beacon_counter_is_complete() after the beacon has been
4338 * transmitted and then call ieee80211_csa_finish().
4339 * If the CSA count starts as zero or 1, this function will not be called,
4340 * since there won't be any time to beacon before the switch anyway.
4341 * @pre_channel_switch: This is an optional callback that is called
4342 * before a channel switch procedure is started (ie. when a STA
4343 * gets a CSA or a userspace initiated channel-switch), allowing
4344 * the driver to prepare for the channel switch.
4345 * @post_channel_switch: This is an optional callback that is called
4346 * after a channel switch procedure is completed, allowing the
4347 * driver to go back to a normal configuration.
4348 * @abort_channel_switch: This is an optional callback that is called
4349 * when channel switch procedure was aborted, allowing the
4350 * driver to go back to a normal configuration.
4351 * @channel_switch_rx_beacon: This is an optional callback that is called
4352 * when channel switch procedure is in progress and additional beacon with
4353 * CSA IE was received, allowing driver to track changes in count.
4354 * @join_ibss: Join an IBSS (on an IBSS interface); this is called after all
4355 * information in bss_conf is set up and the beacon can be retrieved. A
4356 * channel context is bound before this is called.
4357 * @leave_ibss: Leave the IBSS again.
4359 * @get_expected_throughput: extract the expected throughput towards the
4360 * specified station. The returned value is expressed in Kbps. It returns 0
4361 * if the RC algorithm does not have proper data to provide.
4363 * @get_txpower: get current maximum tx power (in dBm) based on configuration
4364 * and hardware limits.
4366 * @tdls_channel_switch: Start channel-switching with a TDLS peer. The driver
4367 * is responsible for continually initiating channel-switching operations
4368 * and returning to the base channel for communication with the AP. The
4369 * driver receives a channel-switch request template and the location of
4370 * the switch-timing IE within the template as part of the invocation.
4371 * The template is valid only within the call, and the driver can
4372 * optionally copy the skb for further re-use.
4373 * @tdls_cancel_channel_switch: Stop channel-switching with a TDLS peer. Both
4374 * peers must be on the base channel when the call completes.
4375 * @tdls_recv_channel_switch: a TDLS channel-switch related frame (request or
4376 * response) has been received from a remote peer. The driver gets
4377 * parameters parsed from the incoming frame and may use them to continue
4378 * an ongoing channel-switch operation. In addition, a channel-switch
4379 * response template is provided, together with the location of the
4380 * switch-timing IE within the template. The skb can only be used within
4381 * the function call.
4383 * @wake_tx_queue: Called when new packets have been added to the queue.
4384 * @sync_rx_queues: Process all pending frames in RSS queues. This is a
4385 * synchronization which is needed in case driver has in its RSS queues
4386 * pending frames that were received prior to the control path action
4387 * currently taken (e.g. disassociation) but are not processed yet.
4389 * @start_nan: join an existing NAN cluster, or create a new one.
4390 * @stop_nan: leave the NAN cluster.
4391 * @nan_change_conf: change NAN configuration. The data in cfg80211_nan_conf
4392 * contains full new configuration and changes specify which parameters
4393 * are changed with respect to the last NAN config.
4394 * The driver gets both full configuration and the changed parameters since
4395 * some devices may need the full configuration while others need only the
4396 * changed parameters.
4397 * @add_nan_func: Add a NAN function. Returns 0 on success. The data in
4398 * cfg80211_nan_func must not be referenced outside the scope of
4399 * this call.
4400 * @del_nan_func: Remove a NAN function. The driver must call
4401 * ieee80211_nan_func_terminated() with
4402 * NL80211_NAN_FUNC_TERM_REASON_USER_REQUEST reason code upon removal.
4403 * @can_aggregate_in_amsdu: Called in order to determine if HW supports
4404 * aggregating two specific frames in the same A-MSDU. The relation
4405 * between the skbs should be symmetric and transitive. Note that while
4406 * skb is always a real frame, head may or may not be an A-MSDU.
4407 * @get_ftm_responder_stats: Retrieve FTM responder statistics, if available.
4408 * Statistics should be cumulative, currently no way to reset is provided.
4410 * @start_pmsr: start peer measurement (e.g. FTM) (this call can sleep)
4411 * @abort_pmsr: abort peer measurement (this call can sleep)
4412 * @set_tid_config: Apply TID specific configurations. This callback may sleep.
4413 * @reset_tid_config: Reset TID specific configuration for the peer.
4414 * This callback may sleep.
4415 * @update_vif_offload: Update virtual interface offload flags
4416 * This callback may sleep.
4417 * @sta_set_4addr: Called to notify the driver when a station starts/stops using
4418 * 4-address mode
4419 * @set_sar_specs: Update the SAR (TX power) settings.
4420 * @sta_set_decap_offload: Called to notify the driver when a station is allowed
4421 * to use rx decapsulation offload
4422 * @add_twt_setup: Update hw with TWT agreement parameters received from the peer.
4423 * This callback allows the hw to check if requested parameters
4424 * are supported and if there is enough room for a new agreement.
4425 * The hw is expected to set agreement result in the req_type field of
4426 * twt structure.
4427 * @twt_teardown_request: Update the hw with TWT teardown request received
4428 * from the peer.
4429 * @set_radar_background: Configure dedicated offchannel chain available for
4430 * radar/CAC detection on some hw. This chain can't be used to transmit
4431 * or receive frames and it is bounded to a running wdev.
4432 * Background radar/CAC detection allows to avoid the CAC downtime
4433 * switching to a different channel during CAC detection on the selected
4434 * radar channel.
4435 * The caller is expected to set chandef pointer to NULL in order to
4436 * disable background CAC/radar detection.
4437 * @net_fill_forward_path: Called from .ndo_fill_forward_path in order to
4438 * resolve a path for hardware flow offloading
4439 * @can_activate_links: Checks if a specific active_links bitmap is
4440 * supported by the driver.
4441 * @change_vif_links: Change the valid links on an interface, note that while
4442 * removing the old link information is still valid (link_conf pointer),
4443 * but may immediately disappear after the function returns. The old or
4444 * new links bitmaps may be 0 if going from/to a non-MLO situation.
4445 * The @old array contains pointers to the old bss_conf structures
4446 * that were already removed, in case they're needed.
4447 * This callback can sleep.
4448 * @change_sta_links: Change the valid links of a station, similar to
4449 * @change_vif_links. This callback can sleep.
4450 * Note that a sta can also be inserted or removed with valid links,
4451 * i.e. passed to @sta_add/@sta_state with sta->valid_links not zero.
4452 * In fact, cannot change from having valid_links and not having them.
4453 * @set_hw_timestamp: Enable/disable HW timestamping of TM/FTM frames. This is
4454 * not restored at HW reset by mac80211 so drivers need to take care of
4455 * that.
4456 * @net_setup_tc: Called from .ndo_setup_tc in order to prepare hardware
4457 * flow offloading for flows originating from the vif.
4458 * Note that the driver must not assume that the vif driver_data is valid
4459 * at this point, since the callback can be called during netdev teardown.
4460 * @can_neg_ttlm: for managed interface, requests the driver to determine
4461 * if the requested TID-To-Link mapping can be accepted or not.
4462 * If it's not accepted the driver may suggest a preferred mapping and
4463 * modify @ttlm parameter with the suggested TID-to-Link mapping.
4464 * @prep_add_interface: prepare for interface addition. This can be used by
4465 * drivers to prepare for the addition of a new interface, e.g., allocate
4466 * the needed resources etc. This callback doesn't guarantee that an
4467 * interface with the specified type would be added, and thus drivers that
4468 * implement this callback need to handle such cases. The type is the full
4469 * &enum nl80211_iftype.

4628 * - ``TX: 1 or``
4629 * - ``TX: 18 or``
4630 * - ``TX: 81``
4632 * Even ``189`` would be wrong since 1 could be lost again.
