18 * struct cfg80211_ops - backend description for wireless configuration
20 * This struct is registered by fullmac card drivers and/or wireless stacks
21 * in order to handle configuration requests on their interfaces.
23 * All callbacks except where otherwise noted should return 0
24 * on success or a negative error code.
26 * All operations are currently invoked under rtnl for consistency with the
27 * wireless extensions but this is subject to reevaluation as soon as this
28 * code is used more widely and we have a first user without wext.
30 * @add_virtual_intf: create a new virtual interface with the given name
32 * @del_virtual_intf: remove the virtual interface determined by ifindex.
