26 * cfg80211 is the configuration API for 802.11 devices in Linux. It bridges
27 * userspace and drivers, and offers some utility functionality associated
28 * with 802.11. cfg80211 must, directly or indirectly via mac80211, be used
29 * by all modern wireless drivers in Linux, so that they offer a consistent
30 * API through nl80211. For backward compatibility, cfg80211 also offers
31 * wireless extensions to userspace, but hides them from drivers completely.
33 * Additionally, cfg80211 contains code to help enforce regulatory spectrum
39 * DOC: Device registration
41 * In order for a driver to use cfg80211, it must register the hardware device
42 * with cfg80211. This happens through a number of hardware capability structs
45 * The fundamental structure for each device is the 'wiphy', of which each
46 * instance describes a physical wireless device connected to the system. Each
47 * such wiphy can have zero, one, or many virtual interfaces associated with
48 * it, which need to be identified as such by pointing the network interface's
49 * @ieee80211_ptr pointer to a &struct wireless_dev which further describes
50 * the wireless part of the interface, normally this struct is embedded in the
51 * network interface's private data area. Drivers can optionally allow creating
52 * or destroying virtual interfaces on the fly, but without at least one or the
53 * ability to create some the wireless device isn't useful.
55 * Each wiphy structure contains device capability information, and also has
56 * a pointer to the various operations the driver offers. The definitions and
57 * structures here describe these capabilities in detail.

814 * DOC: Scanning and BSS list handling
816 * The scanning process itself is fairly simple, but cfg80211 offers quite
817 * a bit of helper functionality. To start a scan, the scan operation will
818 * be invoked with a scan definition. This scan definition contains the
819 * channels to scan, and the SSIDs to send probe requests for (including the
820 * wildcard, if desired). A passive scan is indicated by having no SSIDs to
821 * probe. Additionally, a scan request may contain extra information elements
822 * that should be added to the probe request. The IEs are guaranteed to be
823 * well-formed, and will not exceed the maximum length the driver advertised
824 * in the wiphy structure.
826 * When scanning finds a BSS, cfg80211 needs to be notified of that, because
827 * it is responsible for maintaining the BSS list; the driver should not
828 * maintain a list itself. For this notification, various functions exist.
830 * Since drivers do not maintain a BSS list, there are also a number of
831 * functions to search for a BSS and obtain information about it from the
832 * BSS structure cfg80211 maintains. The BSS list is also made available

1300 * may support multi-channel operation (by channel hopping) so cfg80211
1301 * doesn't verify much. Note, however, that the passed netdev may be
1302 * %NULL as well if the user requested changing the channel for the
1303 * device itself, or for a monitor interface.
1305 * @scan: Request to do a scan. If returning zero, the scan request is given
1306 * the driver, and will be valid until passed to cfg80211_scan_done().
1307 * For scan results, call cfg80211_inform_bss(); you can call this outside
1308 * the scan/scan_done bracket too.
1310 * @auth: Request to authenticate with the specified peer
1311 * @assoc: Request to (re)associate with the specified peer
1312 * @deauth: Request to deauthenticate from the specified peer
1313 * @disassoc: Request to disassociate from the specified peer
1315 * @connect: Connect to the ESS with the specified parameters. When connected,
1316 * call cfg80211_connect_result() with status code %WLAN_STATUS_SUCCESS.
1317 * If the connection fails for some reason, call cfg80211_connect_result()
1318 * with the status from the AP.
1319 * @disconnect: Disconnect from the BSS/ESS.
1321 * @join_ibss: Join the specified IBSS (or create if necessary). Once done, call
1322 * cfg80211_ibss_joined(), also call that function when changing BSSID due
1324 * @leave_ibss: Leave the IBSS.
1326 * @set_wiphy_params: Notify that wiphy parameters have changed;
1327 * @changed bitfield (see &enum wiphy_params_flags) describes which values
1328 * have changed. The actual parameter values are available in
1329 * struct wiphy. If returning an error, no value should be changed.
1331 * @set_tx_power: set the transmit power according to the parameters
1332 * @get_tx_power: store the current TX power into the dbm variable;
1333 * return 0 if successful
1335 * @set_wds_peer: set the WDS peer for a WDS interface
1337 * @rfkill_poll: polls the hw rfkill line, use cfg80211 reporting
1338 * functions to adjust rfkill hw state
1340 * @dump_survey: get site survey information.
1342 * @remain_on_channel: Request the driver to remain awake on the specified
1343 * channel for the specified duration to complete an off-channel
1344 * operation (e.g., public action frame exchange). When the driver is
1345 * ready on the requested channel, it must indicate this with an event
1346 * notification by calling cfg80211_ready_on_channel().
1347 * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Cancel an on-going remain-on-channel operation.
1348 * This allows the operation to be terminated prior to timeout based on
1349 * the duration value.
1350 * @mgmt_tx: Transmit a management frame.
1351 * @mgmt_tx_cancel_wait: Cancel the wait time from transmitting a management
1352 * frame on another channel
1354 * @testmode_cmd: run a test mode command
1355 * @testmode_dump: Implement a test mode dump. The cb->args[2] and up may be
1356 * used by the function, but 0 and 1 must not be touched. Additionally,
1357 * return error codes other than -ENOBUFS and -ENOENT will terminate the
1358 * dump and return to userspace with an error, so be careful. If any data
1359 * was passed in from userspace then the data/len arguments will be present
1360 * and point to the data contained in %NL80211_ATTR_TESTDATA.
1362 * @set_bitrate_mask: set the bitrate mask configuration
1364 * @set_pmksa: Cache a PMKID for a BSSID. This is mostly useful for fullmac
1365 * devices running firmwares capable of generating the (re) association
1366 * RSN IE. It allows for faster roaming between WPA2 BSSIDs.
1367 * @del_pmksa: Delete a cached PMKID.
1368 * @flush_pmksa: Flush all cached PMKIDs.
1369 * @set_power_mgmt: Configure WLAN power management. A timeout value of -1
1370 * allows the driver to adjust the dynamic ps timeout value.
1371 * @set_cqm_rssi_config: Configure connection quality monitor RSSI threshold.
1372 * @sched_scan_start: Tell the driver to start a scheduled scan.
1373 * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the driver to stop an ongoing scheduled
1374 * scan. The driver_initiated flag specifies whether the driver
1375 * itself has informed that the scan has stopped.
1377 * @mgmt_frame_register: Notify driver that a management frame type was
1378 * registered. Note that this callback may not sleep, and cannot run
1379 * concurrently with itself.
1381 * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device.
1382 * Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may
1383 * reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL
1384 * (also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX).
1386 * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant).
1388 * @set_ringparam: Set tx and rx ring sizes.
1390 * @get_ringparam: Get tx and rx ring current and maximum sizes.
