  18  * @NL80211_CMD_NEW_WIPHY: Newly created wiphy, response to get request

  24  * @NL80211_CMD_GET_INTERFACE: Request an interface's configuration;
  25  *      either a dump request on a %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY or a specific get
  26  *      on an %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX is supported.

  32  *      be sent from userspace to request creation of a new virtual interface,
