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

1397 * DOC: Scanning and BSS list handling
1399 * The scanning process itself is fairly simple, but cfg80211 offers quite
1400 * a bit of helper functionality. To start a scan, the scan operation will
1401 * be invoked with a scan definition. This scan definition contains the
1402 * channels to scan, and the SSIDs to send probe requests for (including the
1403 * wildcard, if desired). A passive scan is indicated by having no SSIDs to
1404 * probe. Additionally, a scan request may contain extra information elements
1405 * that should be added to the probe request. The IEs are guaranteed to be
1406 * well-formed, and will not exceed the maximum length the driver advertised
1407 * in the wiphy structure.
1409 * When scanning finds a BSS, cfg80211 needs to be notified of that, because
1410 * it is responsible for maintaining the BSS list; the driver should not
1411 * maintain a list itself. For this notification, various functions exist.
1413 * Since drivers do not maintain a BSS list, there are also a number of
1414 * functions to search for a BSS and obtain information about it from the
1415 * BSS structure cfg80211 maintains. The BSS list is also made available
1416 * to userspace.

2184 * struct cfg80211_ops - backend description for wireless configuration
2186 * This struct is registered by fullmac card drivers and/or wireless stacks
2187 * in order to handle configuration requests on their interfaces.
2189 * All callbacks except where otherwise noted should return 0
2190 * on success or a negative error code.
2192 * All operations are currently invoked under rtnl for consistency with the
2193 * wireless extensions but this is subject to reevaluation as soon as this
2194 * code is used more widely and we have a first user without wext.
2196 * @suspend: wiphy device needs to be suspended. The variable @wow will
2197 * be %NULL or contain the enabled Wake-on-Wireless triggers that are
2198 * configured for the device.
2199 * @resume: wiphy device needs to be resumed
2200 * @set_wakeup: Called when WoWLAN is enabled/disabled, use this callback
2201 * to call device_set_wakeup_enable() to enable/disable wakeup from
2202 * the device.
2204 * @add_virtual_intf: create a new virtual interface with the given name,
2205 * must set the struct wireless_dev's iftype. Beware: You must create
2206 * the new netdev in the wiphy's network namespace! Returns the struct
2207 * wireless_dev, or an ERR_PTR. For P2P device wdevs, the driver must
2208 * also set the address member in the wdev.
2210 * @del_virtual_intf: remove the virtual interface
2212 * @change_virtual_intf: change type/configuration of virtual interface,
2213 * keep the struct wireless_dev's iftype updated.
2215 * @add_key: add a key with the given parameters. @mac_addr will be %NULL
2216 * when adding a group key.
2218 * @get_key: get information about the key with the given parameters.
2219 * @mac_addr will be %NULL when requesting information for a group
2220 * key. All pointers given to the @callback function need not be valid
2221 * after it returns. This function should return an error if it is
2222 * not possible to retrieve the key, -ENOENT if it doesn't exist.
2224 * @del_key: remove a key given the @mac_addr (%NULL for a group key)
2225 * and @key_index, return -ENOENT if the key doesn't exist.
2227 * @set_default_key: set the default key on an interface
2229 * @set_default_mgmt_key: set the default management frame key on an interface
2231 * @set_rekey_data: give the data necessary for GTK rekeying to the driver
2233 * @start_ap: Start acting in AP mode defined by the parameters.
2234 * @change_beacon: Change the beacon parameters for an access point mode
2235 * interface. This should reject the call when AP mode wasn't started.
2236 * @stop_ap: Stop being an AP, including stopping beaconing.
2238 * @add_station: Add a new station.
2239 * @del_station: Remove a station
2240 * @change_station: Modify a given station. Note that flags changes are not much
2241 * validated in cfg80211, in particular the auth/assoc/authorized flags
2242 * might come to the driver in invalid combinations -- make sure to check
2243 * them, also against the existing state! Drivers must call
2244 * cfg80211_check_station_change() to validate the information.
2245 * @get_station: get station information for the station identified by @mac
2246 * @dump_station: dump station callback -- resume dump at index @idx
2248 * @add_mpath: add a fixed mesh path
2249 * @del_mpath: delete a given mesh path
2250 * @change_mpath: change a given mesh path
2251 * @get_mpath: get a mesh path for the given parameters
2252 * @dump_mpath: dump mesh path callback -- resume dump at index @idx
2253 * @get_mpp: get a mesh proxy path for the given parameters
2254 * @dump_mpp: dump mesh proxy path callback -- resume dump at index @idx
2255 * @join_mesh: join the mesh network with the specified parameters
2256 * (invoked with the wireless_dev mutex held)
2257 * @leave_mesh: leave the current mesh network
2258 * (invoked with the wireless_dev mutex held)
2260 * @get_mesh_config: Get the current mesh configuration
2262 * @update_mesh_config: Update mesh parameters on a running mesh.
2263 * The mask is a bitfield which tells us which parameters to
2264 * set, and which to leave alone.
2266 * @change_bss: Modify parameters for a given BSS.
2268 * @set_txq_params: Set TX queue parameters
2270 * @libertas_set_mesh_channel: Only for backward compatibility for libertas,
2271 * as it doesn't implement join_mesh and needs to set the channel to
2272 * join the mesh instead.
2274 * @set_monitor_channel: Set the monitor mode channel for the device. If other
2275 * interfaces are active this callback should reject the configuration.
2276 * If no interfaces are active or the device is down, the channel should
2277 * be stored for when a monitor interface becomes active.
2279 * @scan: Request to do a scan. If returning zero, the scan request is given
2280 * the driver, and will be valid until passed to cfg80211_scan_done().
2281 * For scan results, call cfg80211_inform_bss(); you can call this outside
2282 * the scan/scan_done bracket too.
2284 * @auth: Request to authenticate with the specified peer
2285 * (invoked with the wireless_dev mutex held)
2286 * @assoc: Request to (re)associate with the specified peer
2287 * (invoked with the wireless_dev mutex held)
2288 * @deauth: Request to deauthenticate from the specified peer
2289 * (invoked with the wireless_dev mutex held)
2290 * @disassoc: Request to disassociate from the specified peer
2291 * (invoked with the wireless_dev mutex held)
2293 * @connect: Connect to the ESS with the specified parameters. When connected,
2294 * call cfg80211_connect_result() with status code %WLAN_STATUS_SUCCESS.
2295 * If the connection fails for some reason, call cfg80211_connect_result()
2296 * with the status from the AP.
2297 * (invoked with the wireless_dev mutex held)
2298 * @disconnect: Disconnect from the BSS/ESS.
2299 * (invoked with the wireless_dev mutex held)
2301 * @join_ibss: Join the specified IBSS (or create if necessary). Once done, call
2302 * cfg80211_ibss_joined(), also call that function when changing BSSID due
2303 * to a merge.
2304 * (invoked with the wireless_dev mutex held)
2305 * @leave_ibss: Leave the IBSS.
2306 * (invoked with the wireless_dev mutex held)
2308 * @set_mcast_rate: Set the specified multicast rate (only if vif is in ADHOC or
2309 * MESH mode)
2311 * @set_wiphy_params: Notify that wiphy parameters have changed;
2312 * @changed bitfield (see &enum wiphy_params_flags) describes which values
2313 * have changed. The actual parameter values are available in
2314 * struct wiphy. If returning an error, no value should be changed.
2316 * @set_tx_power: set the transmit power according to the parameters,
2317 * the power passed is in mBm, to get dBm use MBM_TO_DBM(). The
2318 * wdev may be %NULL if power was set for the wiphy, and will
2319 * always be %NULL unless the driver supports per-vif TX power
2320 * (as advertised by the nl80211 feature flag.)
2321 * @get_tx_power: store the current TX power into the dbm variable;
2322 * return 0 if successful
2324 * @set_wds_peer: set the WDS peer for a WDS interface
2326 * @rfkill_poll: polls the hw rfkill line, use cfg80211 reporting
2327 * functions to adjust rfkill hw state
2329 * @dump_survey: get site survey information.
2331 * @remain_on_channel: Request the driver to remain awake on the specified
2332 * channel for the specified duration to complete an off-channel
2333 * operation (e.g., public action frame exchange). When the driver is
2334 * ready on the requested channel, it must indicate this with an event
2335 * notification by calling cfg80211_ready_on_channel().
2336 * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Cancel an on-going remain-on-channel operation.
2337 * This allows the operation to be terminated prior to timeout based on
2338 * the duration value.
2339 * @mgmt_tx: Transmit a management frame.
2340 * @mgmt_tx_cancel_wait: Cancel the wait time from transmitting a management
2341 * frame on another channel
2343 * @testmode_cmd: run a test mode command; @wdev may be %NULL
2344 * @testmode_dump: Implement a test mode dump. The cb->args[2] and up may be
2345 * used by the function, but 0 and 1 must not be touched. Additionally,
2346 * return error codes other than -ENOBUFS and -ENOENT will terminate the
2347 * dump and return to userspace with an error, so be careful. If any data
2348 * was passed in from userspace then the data/len arguments will be present
2349 * and point to the data contained in %NL80211_ATTR_TESTDATA.
2351 * @set_bitrate_mask: set the bitrate mask configuration
2353 * @set_pmksa: Cache a PMKID for a BSSID. This is mostly useful for fullmac
2354 * devices running firmwares capable of generating the (re) association
2355 * RSN IE. It allows for faster roaming between WPA2 BSSIDs.
2356 * @del_pmksa: Delete a cached PMKID.
2357 * @flush_pmksa: Flush all cached PMKIDs.
2358 * @set_power_mgmt: Configure WLAN power management. A timeout value of -1
2359 * allows the driver to adjust the dynamic ps timeout value.
2360 * @set_cqm_rssi_config: Configure connection quality monitor RSSI threshold.
2361 * @set_cqm_txe_config: Configure connection quality monitor TX error
2362 * thresholds.
2363 * @sched_scan_start: Tell the driver to start a scheduled scan.
2364 * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the driver to stop an ongoing scheduled scan. This
2365 * call must stop the scheduled scan and be ready for starting a new one
2366 * before it returns, i.e. @sched_scan_start may be called immediately
2367 * after that again and should not fail in that case. The driver should
2368 * not call cfg80211_sched_scan_stopped() for a requested stop (when this
2369 * method returns 0.)
2371 * @mgmt_frame_register: Notify driver that a management frame type was
2372 * registered. Note that this callback may not sleep, and cannot run
2373 * concurrently with itself.
2375 * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device.
2376 * Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may
2377 * reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL
2378 * (also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX).
2380 * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant).
2382 * @tdls_mgmt: Transmit a TDLS management frame.
2383 * @tdls_oper: Perform a high-level TDLS operation (e.g. TDLS link setup).
2385 * @probe_client: probe an associated client, must return a cookie that it
2386 * later passes to cfg80211_probe_status().
2388 * @set_noack_map: Set the NoAck Map for the TIDs.
2390 * @get_channel: Get the current operating channel for the virtual interface.
2391 * For monitor interfaces, it should return %NULL unless there's a single
2392 * current monitoring channel.
2394 * @start_p2p_device: Start the given P2P device.
2395 * @stop_p2p_device: Stop the given P2P device.
2397 * @set_mac_acl: Sets MAC address control list in AP and P2P GO mode.
2398 * Parameters include ACL policy, an array of MAC address of stations
2399 * and the number of MAC addresses. If there is already a list in driver
2400 * this new list replaces the existing one. Driver has to clear its ACL
2401 * when number of MAC addresses entries is passed as 0. Drivers which
2402 * advertise the support for MAC based ACL have to implement this callback.
2404 * @start_radar_detection: Start radar detection in the driver.
2406 * @update_ft_ies: Provide updated Fast BSS Transition information to the
2407 * driver. If the SME is in the driver/firmware, this information can be
2408 * used in building Authentication and Reassociation Request frames.
2410 * @crit_proto_start: Indicates a critical protocol needs more link reliability
2411 * for a given duration (milliseconds). The protocol is provided so the
2412 * driver can take the most appropriate actions.
2413 * @crit_proto_stop: Indicates critical protocol no longer needs increased link
2414 * reliability. This operation can not fail.
2415 * @set_coalesce: Set coalesce parameters.
2417 * @channel_switch: initiate channel-switch procedure (with CSA). Driver is
2418 * responsible for veryfing if the switch is possible. Since this is
2419 * inherently tricky driver may decide to disconnect an interface later
2420 * with cfg80211_stop_iface(). This doesn't mean driver can accept
2421 * everything. It should do it's best to verify requests and reject them
2422 * as soon as possible.
2424 * @set_qos_map: Set QoS mapping information to the driver
2426 * @set_ap_chanwidth: Set the AP (including P2P GO) mode channel width for the
2427 * given interface This is used e.g. for dynamic HT 20/40 MHz channel width
2428 * changes during the lifetime of the BSS.
2430 * @add_tx_ts: validate (if admitted_time is 0) or add a TX TS to the device
2431 * with the given parameters; action frame exchange has been handled by
2432 * userspace so this just has to modify the TX path to take the TS into
2433 * account.
2434 * If the admitted time is 0 just validate the parameters to make sure
2435 * the session can be created at all; it is valid to just always return
2436 * success for that but that may result in inefficient behaviour (handshake
2437 * with the peer followed by immediate teardown when the addition is later
2438 * rejected)
2439 * @del_tx_ts: remove an existing TX TS
2441 * @join_ocb: join the OCB network with the specified parameters
2442 * (invoked with the wireless_dev mutex held)
2443 * @leave_ocb: leave the current OCB network
2444 * (invoked with the wireless_dev mutex held)
2446 * @tdls_channel_switch: Start channel-switching with a TDLS peer. The driver
2447 * is responsible for continually initiating channel-switching operations
2448 * and returning to the base channel for communication with the AP.
2449 * @tdls_cancel_channel_switch: Stop channel-switching with a TDLS peer. Both
2450 * peers must be on the base channel when the call completes.

4239 * DOC: RFkill integration
4241 * RFkill integration in cfg80211 is almost invisible to drivers,
4242 * as cfg80211 automatically registers an rfkill instance for each
4243 * wireless device it knows about. Soft kill is also translated
4244 * into disconnecting and turning all interfaces off, drivers are
4245 * expected to turn off the device when all interfaces are down.
4247 * However, devices may have a hard RFkill line, in which case they
4248 * also need to interact with the rfkill subsystem, via cfg80211.
4249 * They can do this with a few helper functions documented here.
4253 * wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state - notify cfg80211 about hw block state

4272 * DOC: Vendor commands
4274 * Occasionally, there are special protocol or firmware features that
4275 * can't be implemented very openly. For this and similar cases, the
4276 * vendor command functionality allows implementing the features with
4277 * (typically closed-source) userspace and firmware, using nl80211 as
4278 * the configuration mechanism.
4280 * A driver supporting vendor commands must register them as an array
4281 * in struct wiphy, with handlers for each one, each command has an
4282 * OUI and sub command ID to identify it.
4284 * Note that this feature should not be (ab)used to implement protocol
4285 * features that could openly be shared across drivers. In particular,
4286 * it must never be required to use vendor commands to implement any
4287 * "normal" functionality that higher-level userspace like connection
4288 * managers etc. need.
