The low-level driver must not call any * other functions in hardware interrupt context. If there is a need for such * call, the low-level driver should first ACK the interrupt and perform the * IEEE 802.11 code call after this, e.g. from a scheduled workqueue or even * tasklet function. * * NOTE: If the driver opts to use the _irqsafe() functions, it may not also * use the non-IRQ-safe functions! */ /** * DOC: Warning * * If you're reading this document and not the header file itself, it will * be incomplete because not all documentation has been converted yet. */ /** * DOC: Frame format * * As a general rule, when frames are passed between mac80211 and the driver, * they start with the IEEE 802.11 header and include the same octets that are * sent over the air except for the FCS which should be calculated by the * hardware. * * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features: * * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware. * * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU. * * Finally, for received frames, the driver is able to indicate that it has * filled a radiotap header and put that in front of the frame; if it does * not do so then mac80211 may add this under certain circumstances. */ /** * DOC: mac80211 workqueue * * mac80211 provides its own workqueue for drivers and internal mac80211 use. * The workqueue is a single threaded workqueue and can only be accessed by * helpers for sanity checking. Drivers must ensure all work added onto the * mac80211 workqueue should be cancelled on the driver stop() callback. * * mac80211 will flushed the workqueue upon interface removal and during * suspend. * * All work performed on the mac80211 workqueue must not acquire the RTNL lock. * */ struct device; /** * enum ieee80211_max_queues - maximum number of queues * * @IEEE80211_MAX_QUEUES: Maximum number of regular device queues. */ enum ieee80211_max_queues { IEEE80211_MAX_QUEUES = 16, }; #define IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE 0xff /** * enum ieee80211_ac_numbers - AC numbers as used in mac80211 * @IEEE80211_AC_VO: voice * @IEEE80211_AC_VI: video * @IEEE80211_AC_BE: best effort * @IEEE80211_AC_BK: background */ enum ieee80211_ac_numbers { IEEE80211_AC_VO = 0, IEEE80211_AC_VI = 1, IEEE80211_AC_BE = 2, IEEE80211_AC_BK = 3, }; #define IEEE80211_NUM_ACS 4 /** * struct ieee80211_tx_queue_params - transmit queue configuration * * The information provided in this structure is required for QoS * transmit queue configuration.

In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status. * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary, * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when * it finds traffic directed to it. * * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking * up the hardware before issuing commands to the hardware and putting it * back to sleep at appropriate times. * * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame. * * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that. * * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle * periods. * * Dynamic powersave is simply supported by mac80211 enabling and disabling * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally, * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave. * * Some hardware need to toggle a single shared antenna between WLAN and * Bluetooth to facilitate co-existence. These types of hardware set * limitations on the use of host controlled dynamic powersave whenever there * is simultaneous WLAN and Bluetooth traffic. For these types of hardware, the * driver may request temporarily going into full power save, in order to * enable toggling the antenna between BT and WLAN. If the driver requests * disabling dynamic powersave, the @dynamic_ps_timeout value will be * temporarily set to zero until the driver re-enables dynamic powersave. * * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the * uapsd paramater in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled. * * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK. */ /** * DOC: Beacon filter support * * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups * which will reduce system power consumption. It usually works so that * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed. * * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER * interface capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss(). * * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future. * * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense * that we want to see changes in them. This will include * - a list of information element IDs * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element * * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all * vendor information elements. * * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon. * * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136, * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility * it could also include some currently unused IDs. * * * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement * them as the roaming algorithm requires. * * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the * signal strength threshold checking. */ /** * DOC: Spatial multiplexing power save * * SMPS (Spatial multiplexing power save) is a mechanism to conserve * power in an 802.11n implementation.

However, for best CPU usage and power consumption, * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible. * * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out. * * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast() * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces. * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and * @total_flags with the new flag states. * * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted * or dropped. * * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared. * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_ * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore * the flag, but not clear it. * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it). * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them, * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag. * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well. */ /** * DOC: AP support for powersaving clients * * In order to implement AP and P2P GO modes, mac80211 has support for * client powersaving, both "legacy" PS (PS-Poll/null data) and uAPSD. * There currently is no support for sAPSD. * * There is one assumption that mac80211 makes, namely that a client * will not poll with PS-Poll and trigger with uAPSD at the same time. * Both are supported, and both can be used by the same client, but * they can't be used concurrently by the same client. This simplifies * the driver code. * * The first thing to keep in mind is that there is a flag for complete * driver implementation: %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS. If this flag is set, * mac80211 expects the driver to handle most of the state machine for * powersaving clients and will ignore the PM bit in incoming frames. * Drivers then use ieee80211_sta_ps_transition() to inform mac80211 of * stations' powersave transitions. In this mode, mac80211 also doesn't * handle PS-Poll/uAPSD. * * In the mode without %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS, mac80211 will check the * PM bit in incoming frames for client powersave transitions. When a * station goes to sleep, we will stop transmitting to it. There is, * however, a race condition: a station might go to sleep while there is * data buffered on hardware queues. If the device has support for this * it will reject frames, and the driver should give the frames back to * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED flag set which will * cause mac80211 to retry the frame when the station wakes up. The * driver is also notified of powersave transitions by calling its * @sta_notify callback. * * When the station is asleep, it has three choices: it can wake up, * it can PS-Poll, or it can possibly start a uAPSD service period. * Waking up is implemented by simply transmitting all buffered (and * filtered) frames to the station. This is the easiest case. When * the station sends a PS-Poll or a uAPSD trigger frame, mac80211 * will inform the driver of this with the @allow_buffered_frames * callback; this callback is optional. mac80211 will then transmit * the frames as usual and set the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER * on each frame. The last frame in the service period (or the only * response to a PS-Poll) also has %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set to * indicate that it ends the service period; as this frame must have * TX status report it also sets %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS. * When TX status is reported for this frame, the service period is * marked has having ended and a new one can be started by the peer. * * Additionally, non-bufferable MMPDUs can also be transmitted by * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER set in them. * * Another race condition can happen on some devices like iwlwifi * when there are frames queued for the station and it wakes up * or polls; the frames that are already queued could end up being * transmitted first instead, causing reordering and/or wrong * processing of the EOSP. The cause is that allowing frames to be * transmitted to a certain station is out-of-band communication to * the device. To allow this problem to be solved, the driver can * call ieee80211_sta_block_awake() if frames are buffered when it * is notified that the station went to sleep. When all these frames * have been filtered (see above), it must call the function again * to indicate that the station is no longer blocked. * * If the driver buffers frames in the driver for aggregation in any * way, it must use the ieee80211_sta_set_buffered() call when it is * notified of the station going to sleep to inform mac80211 of any * TIDs that have frames buffered. Note that when a station wakes up * this information is reset (hence the requirement to call it when * informed of the station going to sleep). Then, when a service * period starts for any reason, @release_buffered_frames is called * with the number of frames to be released and which TIDs they are * to come from. In this case, the driver is responsible for setting * the EOSP (for uAPSD) and MORE_DATA bits in the released frames, * to help the @more_data paramter is passed to tell the driver if * there is more data on other TIDs -- the TIDs to release frames * from are ignored since mac80211 doesn't know how many frames the * buffers for those TIDs contain. * * If the driver also implement GO mode, where absence periods may * shorten service periods (or abort PS-Poll responses), it must * filter those response frames except in the case of frames that * are buffered in the driver -- those must remain buffered to avoid * reordering. Because it is possible that no frames are released * in this case, the driver must call ieee80211_sta_eosp_irqsafe() * to indicate to mac80211 that the service period ended anyway. * * Finally, if frames from multiple TIDs are released from mac80211 * but the driver might reorder them, it must clear & set the flags * appropriately (only the last frame may have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP) * and also take care of the EOSP and MORE_DATA bits in the frame. * The driver may also use ieee80211_sta_eosp_irqsafe() in this case. */ /** * DOC: HW queue control * * Before HW queue control was introduced, mac80211 only had a single static * assignment of per-interface AC software queues to hardware queues. This * was problematic for a few reasons: * 1) off-channel transmissions might get stuck behind other frames * 2) multiple virtual interfaces couldn't be handled correctly * 3) after-DTIM frames could get stuck behind other frames * * To solve this, hardware typically uses multiple different queues for all * the different usages, and this needs to be propagated into mac80211 so it * won't have the same problem with the software queues. * * Therefore, mac80211 now offers the %IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL capability * flag that tells it that the driver implements its own queue control. To do * so, the driver will set up the various queues in each &struct ieee80211_vif * and the offchannel queue in &struct ieee80211_hw. In response, mac80211 will * use those queue IDs in the hw_queue field of &struct ieee80211_tx_info and * if necessary will queue the frame on the right software queue that mirrors * the hardware queue. * Additionally, the driver has to then use these HW queue IDs for the queue * management functions (ieee80211_stop_queue() et al.) * * The driver is free to set up the queue mappings as needed, multiple virtual * interfaces may map to the same hardware queues if needed. The setup has to * happen during add_interface or change_interface callbacks. For example, a * driver supporting station+station and station+AP modes might decide to have * 10 hardware queues to handle different scenarios: * * 4 AC HW queues for 1st vif: 0, 1, 2, 3 * 4 AC HW queues for 2nd vif: 4, 5, 6, 7 * after-DTIM queue for AP: 8 * off-channel queue: 9 * * It would then set up the hardware like this: * hw.offchannel_tx_hw_queue = 9 * * and the first virtual interface that is added as follows: * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VO] = 0 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VI] = 1 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BE] = 2 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BK] = 3 * vif.cab_queue = 8 // if AP mode, otherwise %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE * and the second virtual interface with 4-7. * * If queue 6 gets full, for example, mac80211 would only stop the second * virtual interface's BE queue since virtual interface queues are per AC. * * Note that the vif.cab_queue value should be set to %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE * whenever the queue is not used (i.e. the interface is not in AP mode) if the * queue could potentially be shared since mac80211 will look at cab_queue when * a queue is stopped/woken even if the interface is not in AP mode. */ /** * enum ieee80211_filter_flags - hardware filter flags * * These flags determine what the filter in hardware should be * programmed to let through and what should not be passed to the * stack.

If it returns 1, then mac80211 * will also go through the regular complete restart on resume. * * @set_wakeup: Enable or disable wakeup when WoWLAN configuration is * modified. The reason is that device_set_wakeup_enable() is * supposed to be called when the configuration changes, not only * in suspend(). * * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start * and @stop must be implemented. * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the * interface is given in the conf parameter. * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.) * Must be implemented and can sleep. * * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback * is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be * switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep. * Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be * found by the interface iteration callbacks. * * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down. * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface * and no monitor interfaces are present. * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets, * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the * MAC address of the device going away. * Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep. * * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this * function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel. * This function should never fail but returns a negative error code * if it does. The callback can sleep. * * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS * parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low * level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters). * This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless * for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which * of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback * can sleep. * * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration. * This callback is optional, and its return value is passed * to configure_filter(). This callback must be atomic. * * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter. * See the section "Frame filtering" for more information. * This callback must be implemented and can sleep. * * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit * must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic. * * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration" * This callback is only called between add_interface and * remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface * is enabled. * Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added. * The callback can sleep. * * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration" * This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers * which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY. * The callback must be atomic. * * @set_rekey_data: If the device supports GTK rekeying, for example while the * host is suspended, it can assign this callback to retrieve the data * necessary to do GTK rekeying, this is the KEK, KCK and replay counter. * After rekeying was done it should (for example during resume) notify * userspace of the new replay counter using ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify(). * * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start * the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel * configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's * registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure * that power save is disabled. * The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the * entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these * at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the * (extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable). * When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called; * note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to * any error unless this callback returned a negative error code. * The callback can sleep. * * @cancel_hw_scan: Ask the low-level tp cancel the active hw scan. * The driver should ask the hardware to cancel the scan (if possible), * but the scan will be completed only after the driver will call * ieee80211_scan_completed(). * This callback is needed for wowlan, to prevent enqueueing a new * scan_work after the low-level driver was already suspended. * The callback can sleep. * * @sched_scan_start: Ask the hardware to start scanning repeatedly at * specific intervals. The driver must call the * ieee80211_sched_scan_results() function whenever it finds results. * This process will continue until sched_scan_stop is called. * * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the hardware to stop an ongoing scheduled scan. * * @sw_scan_start: Notifier function that is called just before a software scan * is started. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification. * The callback can sleep. * * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a * software scan finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need * this notification. * The callback can sleep. * * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics. * Returns zero if statistics are available. * The callback can sleep. * * @get_tkip_seq: If your device implements TKIP encryption in hardware this * callback should be provided to read the TKIP transmit IVs (both IV32 * and IV16) for the given key from hardware. * The callback must be atomic. * * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this * if the device does fragmentation by itself; if this callback is * implemented then the stack will not do fragmentation. * The callback can sleep. * * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it) * The callback can sleep. * * @sta_add: Notifies low level driver about addition of an associated station, * AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep. * * @sta_remove: Notifies low level driver about removal of an associated * station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep. * * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about power state transition of an * associated station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. For a VIF operating * in AP mode, this callback will not be called when the flag * %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS is set. Must be atomic. * * @sta_state: Notifies low level driver about state transition of a * station (which can be the AP, a client, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc.) * This callback is mutually exclusive with @sta_add/@sta_remove. * It must not fail for down transitions but may fail for transitions * up the list of states. * The callback can sleep. * * @sta_rc_update: Notifies the driver of changes to the bitrates that can be * used to transmit to the station. The changes are advertised with bits * from &enum ieee80211_rate_control_changed and the values are reflected * in the station data. This callback should only be used when the driver * uses hardware rate control (%IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL) since * otherwise the rate control algorithm is notified directly. * Must be atomic. * * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max), * bursting) for a hardware TX queue. * Returns a negative error code on failure. * The callback can sleep. * * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently, * this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a * required function. * The callback can sleep. * * @set_tsf: Set the TSF timer to the specified value in the firmware/hardware. * Currently, this is only used for IBSS mode debugging. Is not a * required function. * The callback can sleep. * * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize * with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This * function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of * TSF synchronization. * The callback can sleep. * * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us. * This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is * used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests. * Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon. * The callback can sleep. * * @ampdu_action: Perform a certain A-MPDU action * The RA/TID combination determines the destination and TID we want * the ampdu action to be performed for. The action is defined through * ieee80211_ampdu_mlme_action. Starting sequence number (@ssn) * is the first frame we expect to perform the action on. Notice * that TX/RX_STOP can pass NULL for this parameter. * The @buf_size parameter is only valid when the action is set to * %IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL and indicates the peer's reorder * buffer size (number of subframes) for this session -- the driver * may neither send aggregates containing more subframes than this * nor send aggregates in a way that lost frames would exceed the * buffer size. If just limiting the aggregate size, this would be * possible with a buf_size of 8: * - TX: 1.....7 * - RX: 2....7 (lost frame #1) * - TX: 8..1... * which is invalid since #1 was now re-transmitted well past the * buffer size of 8. Correct ways to retransmit #1 would be: * - TX: 1 or 18 or 81 * Even "189" would be wrong since 1 could be lost again. * * Returns a negative error code on failure. * The callback can sleep. * * @get_survey: Return per-channel survey information * * @rfkill_poll: Poll rfkill hardware state. If you need this, you also * need to set wiphy->rfkill_poll to %true before registration, * and need to call wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state() in the callback. * The callback can sleep. * * @set_coverage_class: Set slot time for given coverage class as specified * in IEEE 802.11-2007 section 17.3.8.6 and modify ACK timeout * accordingly. This callback is not required and may sleep. * * @testmode_cmd: Implement a cfg80211 test mode command. * The callback can sleep. * @testmode_dump: Implement a cfg80211 test mode dump. The callback can sleep. * * @flush: Flush all pending frames from the hardware queue, making sure * that the hardware queues are empty. If the parameter @drop is set * to %true, pending frames may be dropped. The callback can sleep. * * @channel_switch: Drivers that need (or want) to offload the channel * switch operation for CSAs received from the AP may implement this * callback. They must then call ieee80211_chswitch_done() to indicate * completion of the channel switch. * * @napi_poll: Poll Rx queue for incoming data frames. * * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device. * Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may * reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL * (also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX). * * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant). * * @remain_on_channel: Starts an off-channel period on the given channel, must * call back to ieee80211_ready_on_channel() when on that channel. Note * that normal channel traffic is not stopped as this is intended for hw * offload. Frames to transmit on the off-channel channel are transmitted * normally except for the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN flag. When the * duration (which will always be non-zero) expires, the driver must call * ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired(). * Note that this callback may be called while the device is in IDLE and * must be accepted in this case. * This callback may sleep. * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Requests that an ongoing off-channel period is * aborted before it expires. This callback may sleep. * * @set_ringparam: Set tx and rx ring sizes. * * @get_ringparam: Get tx and rx ring current and maximum sizes. * * @tx_frames_pending: Check if there is any pending frame in the hardware * queues before entering power save. * * @set_bitrate_mask: Set a mask of rates to be used for rate control selection * when transmitting a frame. Currently only legacy rates are handled. * The callback can sleep. * @rssi_callback: Notify driver when the average RSSI goes above/below * thresholds that were registered previously. The callback can sleep. * * @release_buffered_frames: Release buffered frames according to the given * parameters. In the case where the driver buffers some frames for * sleeping stations mac80211 will use this callback to tell the driver * to release some frames, either for PS-poll or uAPSD. * Note that if the @more_data paramter is %false the driver must check * if there are more frames on the given TIDs, and if there are more than * the frames being released then it must still set the more-data bit in * the frame. If the @more_data parameter is %true, then of course the * more-data bit must always be set. * The @tids parameter tells the driver which TIDs to release frames * from, for PS-poll it will always have only a single bit set. * In the case this is used for a PS-poll initiated release, the * @num_frames parameter will always be 1 so code can be shared. In * this case the driver must also set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag * on the TX status (and must report TX status) so that the PS-poll * period is properly ended. This is used to avoid sending multiple * responses for a retried PS-poll frame. * In the case this is used for uAPSD, the @num_frames parameter may be * bigger than one, but the driver may send fewer frames (it must send * at least one, however). In this case it is also responsible for * setting the EOSP flag in the QoS header of the frames. Also, when the * service period ends, the driver must set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP * on the last frame in the SP. Alternatively, it may call the function * ieee80211_sta_eosp_irqsafe() to inform mac80211 of the end of the SP. * This callback must be atomic. * @allow_buffered_frames: Prepare device to allow the given number of frames * to go out to the given station. The frames will be sent by mac80211 * via the usual TX path after this call. The TX information for frames * released will also have the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER flag set * and the last one will also have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set. In case * frames from multiple TIDs are released and the driver might reorder * them between the TIDs, it must set the %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag * on the last frame and clear it on all others and also handle the EOSP * bit in the QoS header correctly. Alternatively, it can also call the * ieee80211_sta_eosp_irqsafe() function. * The @tids parameter is a bitmap and tells the driver which TIDs the * frames will be on; it will at most have two bits set. * This callback must be atomic. * * @get_et_sset_count: Ethtool API to get string-set count. * * @get_et_stats: Ethtool API to get a set of u64 stats. * * @get_et_strings: Ethtool API to get a set of strings to describe stats * and perhaps other supported types of ethtool data-sets. * * @get_rssi: Get current signal strength in dBm, the function is optional * and can sleep. * * @mgd_prepare_tx: Prepare for transmitting a management frame for association * before associated. In multi-channel scenarios, a virtual interface is * bound to a channel before it is associated, but as it isn't associated * yet it need not necessarily be given airtime, in particular since any * transmission to a P2P GO needs to be synchronized against the GO's * powersave state. mac80211 will call this function before transmitting a * management frame prior to having successfully associated to allow the * driver to give it channel time for the transmission, to get a response * and to be able to synchronize with the GO. * The callback will be called before each transmission and upon return * mac80211 will transmit the frame right away. * The callback is optional and can (should!) sleep. */ struct ieee80211_ops { void (*tx)(struct ieee80211_hw *hw, struct ieee80211_tx_control *control, struct sk_buff *skb);
