24 /**
25 * DOC: Introduction
27 * mac80211 is the Linux stack for 802.11 hardware that implements
28 * only partial functionality in hard- or firmware. This document
29 * defines the interface between mac80211 and low-level hardware
30 * drivers.
33 /**
34 * DOC: Calling mac80211 from interrupts
36 * Only ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe() and ieee80211_rx_irqsafe() can be
37 * called in hardware interrupt context. The low-level driver must not call any
38 * other functions in hardware interrupt context. If there is a need for such
39 * call, the low-level driver should first ACK the interrupt and perform the
40 * IEEE 802.11 code call after this, e.g. from a scheduled workqueue or even
41 * tasklet function.
43 * NOTE: If the driver opts to use the _irqsafe() functions, it may not also
44 * use the non-IRQ-safe functions!
47 /**
48 * DOC: Warning
50 * If you're reading this document and not the header file itself, it will
51 * be incomplete because not all documentation has been converted yet.
54 /**
55 * DOC: Frame format
57 * As a general rule, when frames are passed between mac80211 and the driver,
58 * they start with the IEEE 802.11 header and include the same octets that are
59 * sent over the air except for the FCS which should be calculated by the
60 * hardware.
62 * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features:
64 * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload
65 * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware.
67 * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to
68 * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU.
70 * Finally, for received frames, the driver is able to indicate that it has
71 * filled a radiotap header and put that in front of the frame; if it does
72 * not do so then mac80211 may add this under certain circumstances.
75 /**
76 * DOC: mac80211 workqueue
78 * mac80211 provides its own workqueue for drivers and internal mac80211 use.
79 * The workqueue is a single threaded workqueue and can only be accessed by
80 * helpers for sanity checking. Drivers must ensure all work added onto the
81 * mac80211 workqueue should be cancelled on the driver stop() callback.
83 * mac80211 will flushed the workqueue upon interface removal and during
84 * suspend.
86 * All work performed on the mac80211 workqueue must not acquire the RTNL lock.

324 * The driver must allow ARP queries targeted for all address listed here
325 * to pass through. An empty list implies no ARP queries need to pass.

420 * off-channel operation.
421 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NEED_TXPROCESSING: completely internal to mac80211,
422 * used to indicate that a pending frame requires TX processing before
423 * it can be sent out.
424 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRIED: completely internal to mac80211,
425 * used to indicate that a frame was already retried due to PS
426 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT: completely internal to mac80211,
427 * used to indicate frame should not be encrypted
428 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER: This frame is a response to a poll
429 * frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD) or a non-bufferable MMPDU and must
430 * be sent although the station is in powersave mode.
431 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES: More frames will be passed to the
432 * transmit function after the current frame, this can be used
433 * by drivers to kick the DMA queue only if unset or when the
434 * queue gets full.
435 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRANSMISSION: This frame is being retransmitted
436 * after TX status because the destination was asleep, it must not
437 * be modified again (no seqno assignment, crypto, etc.)
438 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_MLME_CONN_TX: This frame was transmitted by the MLME
439 * code for connection establishment, this indicates that its status
440 * should kick the MLME state machine.
441 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NL80211_FRAME_TX: Frame was requested through nl80211
442 * MLME command (internal to mac80211 to figure out whether to send TX
443 * status to user space)
444 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_LDPC: tells the driver to use LDPC for this frame
445 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_STBC: Enables Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) for this
446 * frame and selects the maximum number of streams that it can use.
447 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN: Marks this packet to be transmitted on
448 * the off-channel channel when a remain-on-channel offload is done
449 * in hardware -- normal packets still flow and are expected to be
450 * handled properly by the device.
451 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_TKIP_MIC_FAILURE: Marks this packet to be used for TKIP
452 * testing. It will be sent out with incorrect Michael MIC key to allow
453 * TKIP countermeasures to be tested.
454 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_CCK_RATE: This frame will be sent at non CCK rate.
455 * This flag is actually used for management frame especially for P2P
456 * frames not being sent at CCK rate in 2GHz band.
457 * @IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP: This packet marks the end of service period,
458 * when its status is reported the service period ends. For frames in
459 * an SP that mac80211 transmits, it is already set; for driver frames
460 * the driver may set this flag. It is also used to do the same for
461 * PS-Poll responses.
462 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_USE_MINRATE: This frame will be sent at lowest rate.
463 * This flag is used to send nullfunc frame at minimum rate when
464 * the nullfunc is used for connection monitoring purpose.
465 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_DONTFRAG: Don't fragment this packet even if it
466 * would be fragmented by size (this is optional, only used for
467 * monitor injection).
468 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_PS_RESPONSE: This frame is a response to a poll
469 * frame (PS-Poll or uAPSD).

1455 * @IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_BEFORE_ASSOC:
1456 * This device needs to get data from beacon before association (i.e.

1459 * @IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PER_STA_GTK: The device's crypto engine supports
1460 * per-station GTKs as used by IBSS RSN or during fast transition. If
1461 * the device doesn't support per-station GTKs, but can be asked not
1462 * to decrypt group addressed frames, then IBSS RSN support is still
1463 * possible but software crypto will be used. Advertise the wiphy flag
1464 * only in that case.
1466 * @IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS: When operating in AP mode the device
1467 * autonomously manages the PS status of connected stations. When
1468 * this flag is set mac80211 will not trigger PS mode for connected
1469 * stations based on the PM bit of incoming frames.

1473 * @IEEE80211_HW_TX_AMPDU_SETUP_IN_HW: The device handles TX A-MPDU session
1474 * setup strictly in HW. mac80211 should not attempt to do this in

1722 * DOC: Hardware crypto acceleration
1724 * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware
1725 * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.
1727 * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1728 * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
1729 * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1730 * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1731 * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
1732 * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1733 * VLANs are configured for an access point.
1735 * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1736 * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1737 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1739 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1740 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1741 * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
1742 * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
1744 * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
1746 * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
1747 * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
1748 * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
1749 * based on the receive flags.
1751 * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
1752 * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
1753 * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
1754 * keys.
1756 * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
1757 * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
1758 * handler.
1759 * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
1760 * This happens every time the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
1761 * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
1762 * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
1763 * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
1764 * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.
1766 * The set_default_unicast_key() call updates the default WEP key index
1767 * configured to the hardware for WEP encryption type. This is required
1768 * for devices that support offload of data packets (e.g. ARP responses).
1772 * DOC: Powersave support
1774 * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
1776 * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
1777 * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
1778 * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
1779 * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
1780 * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
1781 * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
1782 * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
1783 * it finds traffic directed to it.
1785 * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
1786 * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
1787 * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
1788 * up the hardware before issuing commands to the hardware and putting it
1789 * back to sleep at appropriate times.
1791 * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
1792 * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
1793 * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
1795 * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1796 * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1797 * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1798 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
1799 * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
1800 * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
1801 * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
1803 * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
1804 * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
1805 * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
1806 * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
1807 * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
1808 * periods.
1810 * Dynamic powersave is simply supported by mac80211 enabling and disabling
1811 * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1812 * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
1813 * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
1814 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
1815 * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
1816 * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
1817 * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
1818 * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
1819 * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
1821 * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
1822 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
1823 * uapsd paramater in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
1824 * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
1825 * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
1826 * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.
1828 * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with
1829 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK.
1833 * DOC: Beacon filter support
1835 * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1836 * which will reduce system power consumption. It usually works so that
1837 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1838 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
1839 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
1840 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1841 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1843 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER
1844 * interface capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
1845 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
1846 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
1847 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
1849 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
1850 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
1851 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
1852 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
1854 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
1855 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
1856 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
1857 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
1858 * - a list of information element IDs
1859 * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
1861 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
1862 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
1863 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
1864 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
1865 * vendor information elements.
1867 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
1868 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
1870 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
1871 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
1872 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
1873 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
1874 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
1875 * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
1878 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
1879 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
1880 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
1881 * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
1882 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
1883 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
1884 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
1885 * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
1887 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
1888 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
1889 * signal strength threshold checking.
1893 * DOC: Spatial multiplexing power save
1895 * SMPS (Spatial multiplexing power save) is a mechanism to conserve
1896 * power in an 802.11n implementation. For details on the mechanism
1897 * and rationale, please refer to 802.11 (as amended by 802.11n-2009)
1898 * "11.2.3 SM power save".
1900 * The mac80211 implementation is capable of sending action frames
1901 * to update the AP about the station's SMPS mode, and will instruct
1902 * the driver to enter the specific mode. It will also announce the
1903 * requested SMPS mode during the association handshake. Hardware
1904 * support for this feature is required, and can be indicated by
1905 * hardware flags.
1907 * The default mode will be "automatic", which nl80211/cfg80211
1908 * defines to be dynamic SMPS in (regular) powersave, and SMPS
1909 * turned off otherwise.
1911 * To support this feature, the driver must set the appropriate
1912 * hardware support flags, and handle the SMPS flag to the config()
1913 * operation. It will then with this mechanism be instructed to
1914 * enter the requested SMPS mode while associated to an HT AP.
1918 * DOC: Frame filtering
1920 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
1921 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
1922 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
1923 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1924 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1926 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
1927 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
1928 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
1930 * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
1931 * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
1932 * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
1933 * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
1934 * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
1935 * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
1936 * @total_flags with the new flag states.
1938 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
1939 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
1940 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
1941 * or dropped.
1943 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
1944 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
1945 * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
1946 * the flag, but not clear it.
1947 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
1948 * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
1949 * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
1950 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1951 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1952 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1953 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
1954 * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.
1958 * DOC: AP support for powersaving clients
1960 * In order to implement AP and P2P GO modes, mac80211 has support for
1961 * client powersaving, both "legacy" PS (PS-Poll/null data) and uAPSD.
1962 * There currently is no support for sAPSD.
1964 * There is one assumption that mac80211 makes, namely that a client
1965 * will not poll with PS-Poll and trigger with uAPSD at the same time.
1966 * Both are supported, and both can be used by the same client, but
1967 * they can't be used concurrently by the same client. This simplifies
1968 * the driver code.
1970 * The first thing to keep in mind is that there is a flag for complete
1971 * driver implementation: %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS. If this flag is set,
1972 * mac80211 expects the driver to handle most of the state machine for
1973 * powersaving clients and will ignore the PM bit in incoming frames.
1974 * Drivers then use ieee80211_sta_ps_transition() to inform mac80211 of
1975 * stations' powersave transitions. In this mode, mac80211 also doesn't
1976 * handle PS-Poll/uAPSD.
1978 * In the mode without %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS, mac80211 will check the
1979 * PM bit in incoming frames for client powersave transitions. When a
1980 * station goes to sleep, we will stop transmitting to it. There is,
1981 * however, a race condition: a station might go to sleep while there is
1982 * data buffered on hardware queues. If the device has support for this
1983 * it will reject frames, and the driver should give the frames back to
1984 * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED flag set which will
1985 * cause mac80211 to retry the frame when the station wakes up. The
1986 * driver is also notified of powersave transitions by calling its
1987 * @sta_notify callback.
1989 * When the station is asleep, it has three choices: it can wake up,
1990 * it can PS-Poll, or it can possibly start a uAPSD service period.
1991 * Waking up is implemented by simply transmitting all buffered (and
1992 * filtered) frames to the station. This is the easiest case. When
1993 * the station sends a PS-Poll or a uAPSD trigger frame, mac80211
1994 * will inform the driver of this with the @allow_buffered_frames
1995 * callback; this callback is optional. mac80211 will then transmit
1996 * the frames as usual and set the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER
1997 * on each frame. The last frame in the service period (or the only
1998 * response to a PS-Poll) also has %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set to
1999 * indicate that it ends the service period; as this frame must have
2000 * TX status report it also sets %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS.
2001 * When TX status is reported for this frame, the service period is
2002 * marked has having ended and a new one can be started by the peer.
2004 * Additionally, non-bufferable MMPDUs can also be transmitted by
2005 * mac80211 with the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER set in them.
2007 * Another race condition can happen on some devices like iwlwifi
2008 * when there are frames queued for the station and it wakes up
2009 * or polls; the frames that are already queued could end up being
2010 * transmitted first instead, causing reordering and/or wrong
2011 * processing of the EOSP. The cause is that allowing frames to be
2012 * transmitted to a certain station is out-of-band communication to
2013 * the device. To allow this problem to be solved, the driver can
2014 * call ieee80211_sta_block_awake() if frames are buffered when it
2015 * is notified that the station went to sleep. When all these frames
2016 * have been filtered (see above), it must call the function again
2017 * to indicate that the station is no longer blocked.
2019 * If the driver buffers frames in the driver for aggregation in any
2020 * way, it must use the ieee80211_sta_set_buffered() call when it is
2021 * notified of the station going to sleep to inform mac80211 of any
2022 * TIDs that have frames buffered. Note that when a station wakes up
2023 * this information is reset (hence the requirement to call it when
2024 * informed of the station going to sleep). Then, when a service
2025 * period starts for any reason, @release_buffered_frames is called
2026 * with the number of frames to be released and which TIDs they are
2027 * to come from. In this case, the driver is responsible for setting
2028 * the EOSP (for uAPSD) and MORE_DATA bits in the released frames,
2029 * to help the @more_data paramter is passed to tell the driver if
2030 * there is more data on other TIDs -- the TIDs to release frames
2031 * from are ignored since mac80211 doesn't know how many frames the
2032 * buffers for those TIDs contain.
2034 * If the driver also implement GO mode, where absence periods may
2035 * shorten service periods (or abort PS-Poll responses), it must
2036 * filter those response frames except in the case of frames that
2037 * are buffered in the driver -- those must remain buffered to avoid
2038 * reordering. Because it is possible that no frames are released
2039 * in this case, the driver must call ieee80211_sta_eosp()
2040 * to indicate to mac80211 that the service period ended anyway.
2042 * Finally, if frames from multiple TIDs are released from mac80211
2043 * but the driver might reorder them, it must clear & set the flags
2044 * appropriately (only the last frame may have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP)
2045 * and also take care of the EOSP and MORE_DATA bits in the frame.
2046 * The driver may also use ieee80211_sta_eosp() in this case.
2050 * DOC: HW queue control
2052 * Before HW queue control was introduced, mac80211 only had a single static
2053 * assignment of per-interface AC software queues to hardware queues. This
2054 * was problematic for a few reasons:
2055 * 1) off-channel transmissions might get stuck behind other frames
2056 * 2) multiple virtual interfaces couldn't be handled correctly
2057 * 3) after-DTIM frames could get stuck behind other frames
2059 * To solve this, hardware typically uses multiple different queues for all
2060 * the different usages, and this needs to be propagated into mac80211 so it
2061 * won't have the same problem with the software queues.
2063 * Therefore, mac80211 now offers the %IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL capability
2064 * flag that tells it that the driver implements its own queue control. To do
2065 * so, the driver will set up the various queues in each &struct ieee80211_vif
2066 * and the offchannel queue in &struct ieee80211_hw. In response, mac80211 will
2067 * use those queue IDs in the hw_queue field of &struct ieee80211_tx_info and
2068 * if necessary will queue the frame on the right software queue that mirrors
2069 * the hardware queue.
2070 * Additionally, the driver has to then use these HW queue IDs for the queue
2071 * management functions (ieee80211_stop_queue() et al.)
2073 * The driver is free to set up the queue mappings as needed, multiple virtual
2074 * interfaces may map to the same hardware queues if needed. The setup has to
2075 * happen during add_interface or change_interface callbacks. For example, a
2076 * driver supporting station+station and station+AP modes might decide to have
2077 * 10 hardware queues to handle different scenarios:
2079 * 4 AC HW queues for 1st vif: 0, 1, 2, 3
2080 * 4 AC HW queues for 2nd vif: 4, 5, 6, 7
2081 * after-DTIM queue for AP: 8
2082 * off-channel queue: 9
2084 * It would then set up the hardware like this:
2085 * hw.offchannel_tx_hw_queue = 9
2087 * and the first virtual interface that is added as follows:
2088 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VO] = 0
2089 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_VI] = 1
2090 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BE] = 2
2091 * vif.hw_queue[IEEE80211_AC_BK] = 3
2092 * vif.cab_queue = 8 // if AP mode, otherwise %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2093 * and the second virtual interface with 4-7.
2095 * If queue 6 gets full, for example, mac80211 would only stop the second
2096 * virtual interface's BE queue since virtual interface queues are per AC.
2098 * Note that the vif.cab_queue value should be set to %IEEE80211_INVAL_HW_QUEUE
2099 * whenever the queue is not used (i.e. the interface is not in AP mode) if the
2100 * queue could potentially be shared since mac80211 will look at cab_queue when
2101 * a queue is stopped/woken even if the interface is not in AP mode.
2105 * enum ieee80211_filter_flags - hardware filter flags
2107 * These flags determine what the filter in hardware should be
2108 * programmed to let through and what should not be passed to the

2110 * but this has negative impact on power consumption.

2117 * by the user or if the hardware is not capable of filtering by

2124 * the %RX_FLAG_FAILED_PLCP_CRC for them
2126 * @FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC: This flag is set during scanning to indicate
2127 * to the hardware that it should not filter beacons or probe responses
2128 * by BSSID. Filtering them can greatly reduce the amount of processing
2129 * mac80211 needs to do and the amount of CPU wakeups, so you should
2130 * honour this flag if possible.

2244 * This structure contains various callbacks that the driver may
2245 * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
2246 * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
2248 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
2249 * skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
2250 * The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
2251 * configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
2252 * preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately.
2253 * Must be atomic.
2255 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
2256 * is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
2257 * frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
2258 * Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
2259 * or zero.
2260 * When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
2261 * to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
2262 * is added.
2263 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
2265 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
2266 * is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
2267 * it must turn off frame reception.)
2268 * May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
2269 * an interface. If you added any work onto the mac80211 workqueue
2270 * you should ensure to cancel it on this callback.
2271 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
2273 * @suspend: Suspend the device; mac80211 itself will quiesce before and
2274 * stop transmitting and doing any other configuration, and then
2275 * ask the device to suspend. This is only invoked when WoWLAN is
2276 * configured, otherwise the device is deconfigured completely and
2277 * reconfigured at resume time.
2278 * The driver may also impose special conditions under which it
2279 * wants to use the "normal" suspend (deconfigure), say if it only
2280 * supports WoWLAN when the device is associated. In this case, it
2281 * must return 1 from this function.
2283 * @resume: If WoWLAN was configured, this indicates that mac80211 is
2284 * now resuming its operation, after this the device must be fully
2285 * functional again. If this returns an error, the only way out is
2286 * to also unregister the device. If it returns 1, then mac80211
2287 * will also go through the regular complete restart on resume.
2289 * @set_wakeup: Enable or disable wakeup when WoWLAN configuration is
2290 * modified. The reason is that device_set_wakeup_enable() is
2291 * supposed to be called when the configuration changes, not only
2292 * in suspend().
2294 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
2295 * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
2296 * and @stop must be implemented.
2297 * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
2298 * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
2299 * interface is given in the conf parameter.
2300 * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
2301 * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
2302 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
2304 * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback
2305 * is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be
2306 * switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep.
2307 * Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be
2308 * found by the interface iteration callbacks.
2310 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
2311 * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
2312 * and no monitor interfaces are present.
2313 * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
2314 * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
2315 * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
2316 * MAC address of the device going away.
2317 * Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.
2319 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
2320 * function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
2321 * This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
2322 * if it does. The callback can sleep.
2324 * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
2325 * parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
2326 * level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
2327 * This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
2328 * for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
2329 * of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback
2330 * can sleep.
2332 * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration.
2333 * This callback is optional, and its return value is passed
2334 * to configure_filter(). This callback must be atomic.
2336 * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
2337 * See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
2338 * This callback must be implemented and can sleep.
2340 * @set_multicast_list: Configure the device's interface specific RX multicast
2341 * filter. This callback is optional. This callback must be atomic.
2343 * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
2344 * must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
2346 * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2347 * This callback is only called between add_interface and
2348 * remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
2349 * is enabled.
2350 * Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
2351 * The callback can sleep.
2353 * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
2354 * This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
2355 * which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
2356 * The callback must be atomic.
2358 * @set_rekey_data: If the device supports GTK rekeying, for example while the
2359 * host is suspended, it can assign this callback to retrieve the data
2360 * necessary to do GTK rekeying, this is the KEK, KCK and replay counter.
2361 * After rekeying was done it should (for example during resume) notify
2362 * userspace of the new replay counter using ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify().
2364 * @set_default_unicast_key: Set the default (unicast) key index, useful for
2365 * WEP when the device sends data packets autonomously, e.g. for ARP
2366 * offloading. The index can be 0-3, or -1 for unsetting it.
2368 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
2369 * the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
2370 * configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
2371 * registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
2372 * that power save is disabled.
2373 * The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
2374 * entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
2375 * at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
2376 * (extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
2377 * When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
2378 * note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
2379 * any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
2380 * The callback can sleep.
2382 * @cancel_hw_scan: Ask the low-level tp cancel the active hw scan.
2383 * The driver should ask the hardware to cancel the scan (if possible),
2384 * but the scan will be completed only after the driver will call
2385 * ieee80211_scan_completed().
2386 * This callback is needed for wowlan, to prevent enqueueing a new
2387 * scan_work after the low-level driver was already suspended.
2388 * The callback can sleep.
2390 * @sched_scan_start: Ask the hardware to start scanning repeatedly at
2391 * specific intervals. The driver must call the
2392 * ieee80211_sched_scan_results() function whenever it finds results.
2393 * This process will continue until sched_scan_stop is called.
2395 * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the hardware to stop an ongoing scheduled scan.
2397 * @sw_scan_start: Notifier function that is called just before a software scan
2398 * is started. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
2399 * The callback can sleep.
2401 * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a
2402 * software scan finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need
2403 * this notification.
2404 * The callback can sleep.
2406 * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
2407 * Returns zero if statistics are available.
2408 * The callback can sleep.
2410 * @get_tkip_seq: If your device implements TKIP encryption in hardware this
2411 * callback should be provided to read the TKIP transmit IVs (both IV32
2412 * and IV16) for the given key from hardware.
2413 * The callback must be atomic.
2415 * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this
2416 * if the device does fragmentation by itself; if this callback is
2417 * implemented then the stack will not do fragmentation.
2418 * The callback can sleep.
2420 * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
2421 * The callback can sleep.
2423 * @sta_add: Notifies low level driver about addition of an associated station,
2424 * AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
2426 * @sta_remove: Notifies low level driver about removal of an associated
2427 * station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
2429 * @sta_add_debugfs: Drivers can use this callback to add debugfs files
2430 * when a station is added to mac80211's station list. This callback
2431 * and @sta_remove_debugfs should be within a CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS
2432 * conditional. This callback can sleep.
2434 * @sta_remove_debugfs: Remove the debugfs files which were added using
2435 * @sta_add_debugfs. This callback can sleep.
2437 * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about power state transition of an
2438 * associated station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. For a VIF operating
2439 * in AP mode, this callback will not be called when the flag
2440 * %IEEE80211_HW_AP_LINK_PS is set. Must be atomic.
2442 * @sta_state: Notifies low level driver about state transition of a
2443 * station (which can be the AP, a client, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc.)
2444 * This callback is mutually exclusive with @sta_add/@sta_remove.
2445 * It must not fail for down transitions but may fail for transitions
2446 * up the list of states.
2447 * The callback can sleep.
2449 * @sta_rc_update: Notifies the driver of changes to the bitrates that can be
2450 * used to transmit to the station. The changes are advertised with bits
2451 * from &enum ieee80211_rate_control_changed and the values are reflected
2452 * in the station data. This callback should only be used when the driver
2453 * uses hardware rate control (%IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL) since
2454 * otherwise the rate control algorithm is notified directly.
2455 * Must be atomic.
2457 * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
2458 * bursting) for a hardware TX queue.
2459 * Returns a negative error code on failure.
2460 * The callback can sleep.
2462 * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
2463 * this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a
2464 * required function.
2465 * The callback can sleep.
2467 * @set_tsf: Set the TSF timer to the specified value in the firmware/hardware.
2468 * Currently, this is only used for IBSS mode debugging. Is not a
2469 * required function.
2470 * The callback can sleep.
2472 * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
2473 * with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
2474 * function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
2475 * TSF synchronization.
2476 * The callback can sleep.
2478 * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
2479 * This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
2480 * used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
2481 * Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon.
2482 * The callback can sleep.
2484 * @ampdu_action: Perform a certain A-MPDU action
2485 * The RA/TID combination determines the destination and TID we want
2486 * the ampdu action to be performed for. The action is defined through
2487 * ieee80211_ampdu_mlme_action. Starting sequence number (@ssn)
2488 * is the first frame we expect to perform the action on. Notice
2489 * that TX/RX_STOP can pass NULL for this parameter.
2490 * The @buf_size parameter is only valid when the action is set to
2491 * %IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL and indicates the peer's reorder
2492 * buffer size (number of subframes) for this session -- the driver
2493 * may neither send aggregates containing more subframes than this
2494 * nor send aggregates in a way that lost frames would exceed the
2495 * buffer size. If just limiting the aggregate size, this would be
2496 * possible with a buf_size of 8:
2497 * - TX: 1.....7
2498 * - RX: 2....7 (lost frame #1)
2499 * - TX: 8..1...
2500 * which is invalid since #1 was now re-transmitted well past the
2501 * buffer size of 8. Correct ways to retransmit #1 would be:
2502 * - TX: 1 or 18 or 81
2503 * Even "189" would be wrong since 1 could be lost again.
2505 * Returns a negative error code on failure.
2506 * The callback can sleep.
2508 * @get_survey: Return per-channel survey information
2510 * @rfkill_poll: Poll rfkill hardware state. If you need this, you also
2511 * need to set wiphy->rfkill_poll to %true before registration,
2512 * and need to call wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state() in the callback.
2513 * The callback can sleep.
2515 * @set_coverage_class: Set slot time for given coverage class as specified
2516 * in IEEE 802.11-2007 section 17.3.8.6 and modify ACK timeout
2517 * accordingly. This callback is not required and may sleep.
2519 * @testmode_cmd: Implement a cfg80211 test mode command.
2520 * The callback can sleep.
2521 * @testmode_dump: Implement a cfg80211 test mode dump. The callback can sleep.
2523 * @flush: Flush all pending frames from the hardware queue, making sure
2524 * that the hardware queues are empty. The @queues parameter is a bitmap
2525 * of queues to flush, which is useful if different virtual interfaces
2526 * use different hardware queues; it may also indicate all queues.
2527 * If the parameter @drop is set to %true, pending frames may be dropped.
2528 * The callback can sleep.
2530 * @channel_switch: Drivers that need (or want) to offload the channel
2531 * switch operation for CSAs received from the AP may implement this
2532 * callback. They must then call ieee80211_chswitch_done() to indicate
2533 * completion of the channel switch.
2535 * @napi_poll: Poll Rx queue for incoming data frames.
2537 * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device.
2538 * Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may
2539 * reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL
2540 * (also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX).
2542 * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant).
2544 * @remain_on_channel: Starts an off-channel period on the given channel, must
2545 * call back to ieee80211_ready_on_channel() when on that channel. Note
2546 * that normal channel traffic is not stopped as this is intended for hw
2547 * offload. Frames to transmit on the off-channel channel are transmitted
2548 * normally except for the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN flag. When the
2549 * duration (which will always be non-zero) expires, the driver must call
2550 * ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired().
2551 * Note that this callback may be called while the device is in IDLE and
2552 * must be accepted in this case.
2553 * This callback may sleep.
2554 * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Requests that an ongoing off-channel period is
2555 * aborted before it expires. This callback may sleep.
2557 * @set_ringparam: Set tx and rx ring sizes.
2559 * @get_ringparam: Get tx and rx ring current and maximum sizes.
2561 * @tx_frames_pending: Check if there is any pending frame in the hardware
2562 * queues before entering power save.
2564 * @set_bitrate_mask: Set a mask of rates to be used for rate control selection
2565 * when transmitting a frame. Currently only legacy rates are handled.
2566 * The callback can sleep.
2567 * @rssi_callback: Notify driver when the average RSSI goes above/below
2568 * thresholds that were registered previously. The callback can sleep.
2570 * @release_buffered_frames: Release buffered frames according to the given
2571 * parameters. In the case where the driver buffers some frames for
2572 * sleeping stations mac80211 will use this callback to tell the driver
2573 * to release some frames, either for PS-poll or uAPSD.
2574 * Note that if the @more_data paramter is %false the driver must check
2575 * if there are more frames on the given TIDs, and if there are more than
2576 * the frames being released then it must still set the more-data bit in
2577 * the frame. If the @more_data parameter is %true, then of course the
2578 * more-data bit must always be set.
2579 * The @tids parameter tells the driver which TIDs to release frames
2580 * from, for PS-poll it will always have only a single bit set.
2581 * In the case this is used for a PS-poll initiated release, the
2582 * @num_frames parameter will always be 1 so code can be shared. In
2583 * this case the driver must also set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
2584 * on the TX status (and must report TX status) so that the PS-poll
2585 * period is properly ended. This is used to avoid sending multiple
2586 * responses for a retried PS-poll frame.
2587 * In the case this is used for uAPSD, the @num_frames parameter may be
2588 * bigger than one, but the driver may send fewer frames (it must send
2589 * at least one, however). In this case it is also responsible for
2590 * setting the EOSP flag in the QoS header of the frames. Also, when the
2591 * service period ends, the driver must set %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP
2592 * on the last frame in the SP. Alternatively, it may call the function
2593 * ieee80211_sta_eosp() to inform mac80211 of the end of the SP.
2594 * This callback must be atomic.
2595 * @allow_buffered_frames: Prepare device to allow the given number of frames
2596 * to go out to the given station. The frames will be sent by mac80211
2597 * via the usual TX path after this call. The TX information for frames
2598 * released will also have the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER flag set
2599 * and the last one will also have %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP set. In case
2600 * frames from multiple TIDs are released and the driver might reorder
2601 * them between the TIDs, it must set the %IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag
2602 * on the last frame and clear it on all others and also handle the EOSP
2603 * bit in the QoS header correctly. Alternatively, it can also call the
2604 * ieee80211_sta_eosp() function.
2605 * The @tids parameter is a bitmap and tells the driver which TIDs the
2606 * frames will be on; it will at most have two bits set.
2607 * This callback must be atomic.
2609 * @get_et_sset_count: Ethtool API to get string-set count.
2611 * @get_et_stats: Ethtool API to get a set of u64 stats.
2613 * @get_et_strings: Ethtool API to get a set of strings to describe stats
2614 * and perhaps other supported types of ethtool data-sets.
2616 * @get_rssi: Get current signal strength in dBm, the function is optional
2617 * and can sleep.
2619 * @mgd_prepare_tx: Prepare for transmitting a management frame for association
2620 * before associated. In multi-channel scenarios, a virtual interface is
2621 * bound to a channel before it is associated, but as it isn't associated
2622 * yet it need not necessarily be given airtime, in particular since any
2623 * transmission to a P2P GO needs to be synchronized against the GO's
2624 * powersave state. mac80211 will call this function before transmitting a
2625 * management frame prior to having successfully associated to allow the
2626 * driver to give it channel time for the transmission, to get a response
2627 * and to be able to synchronize with the GO.
2628 * The callback will be called before each transmission and upon return
2629 * mac80211 will transmit the frame right away.
2630 * The callback is optional and can (should!) sleep.
2632 * @add_chanctx: Notifies device driver about new channel context creation.
2633 * @remove_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context destruction.
2634 * @change_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context changes that
2635 * may happen when combining different virtual interfaces on the same
2636 * channel context with different settings
2637 * @assign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being bound
2638 * to vif. Possible use is for hw queue remapping.
2639 * @unassign_vif_chanctx: Notifies device driver about channel context being
2640 * unbound from vif.
2641 * @start_ap: Start operation on the AP interface, this is called after all the
2642 * information in bss_conf is set and beacon can be retrieved. A channel
2643 * context is bound before this is called. Note that if the driver uses
2644 * software scan or ROC, this (and @stop_ap) isn't called when the AP is
2645 * just "paused" for scanning/ROC, which is indicated by the beacon being
2646 * disabled/enabled via @bss_info_changed.
2647 * @stop_ap: Stop operation on the AP interface.
2649 * @restart_complete: Called after a call to ieee80211_restart_hw(), when the
2650 * reconfiguration has completed. This can help the driver implement the
2651 * reconfiguration step. Also called when reconfiguring because the
2652 * driver's resume function returned 1, as this is just like an "inline"
2653 * hardware restart. This callback may sleep.
2655 * @ipv6_addr_change: IPv6 address assignment on the given interface changed.
2656 * Currently, this is only called for managed or P2P client interfaces.
2657 * This callback is optional; it must not sleep.
2659 * @channel_switch_beacon: Starts a channel switch to a new channel.
2660 * Beacons are modified to include CSA or ECSA IEs before calling this
2661 * function. The corresponding count fields in these IEs must be
2662 * decremented, and when they reach zero the driver must call
2663 * ieee80211_csa_finish(). Drivers which use ieee80211_beacon_get()
2664 * get the csa counter decremented by mac80211, but must check if it is
2665 * zero using ieee80211_csa_is_complete() after the beacon has been
2666 * transmitted and then call ieee80211_csa_finish().
