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

739 * DOC: Scanning and BSS list handling
741 * The scanning process itself is fairly simple, but cfg80211 offers quite
742 * a bit of helper functionality. To start a scan, the scan operation will
743 * be invoked with a scan definition. This scan definition contains the
744 * channels to scan, and the SSIDs to send probe requests for (including the
745 * wildcard, if desired). A passive scan is indicated by having no SSIDs to
746 * probe. Additionally, a scan request may contain extra information elements
747 * that should be added to the probe request. The IEs are guaranteed to be
748 * well-formed, and will not exceed the maximum length the driver advertised
749 * in the wiphy structure.
751 * When scanning finds a BSS, cfg80211 needs to be notified of that, because
752 * it is responsible for maintaining the BSS list; the driver should not
753 * maintain a list itself. For this notification, various functions exist.
755 * Since drivers do not maintain a BSS list, there are also a number of
756 * functions to search for a BSS and obtain information about it from the
757 * BSS structure cfg80211 maintains. The BSS list is also made available

1301 * notification by calling cfg80211_ready_on_channel().
1302 * @cancel_remain_on_channel: Cancel an on-going remain-on-channel operation.
1303 * This allows the operation to be terminated prior to timeout based on
1304 * the duration value.
1305 * @mgmt_tx: Transmit a management frame.
1306 * @mgmt_tx_cancel_wait: Cancel the wait time from transmitting a management
1307 * frame on another channel
1309 * @testmode_cmd: run a test mode command
1310 * @testmode_dump: Implement a test mode dump. The cb->args[2] and up may be
1311 * used by the function, but 0 and 1 must not be touched. Additionally,
1312 * return error codes other than -ENOBUFS and -ENOENT will terminate the
1313 * dump and return to userspace with an error, so be careful. If any data
1314 * was passed in from userspace then the data/len arguments will be present
1315 * and point to the data contained in %NL80211_ATTR_TESTDATA.
1317 * @set_bitrate_mask: set the bitrate mask configuration
1319 * @set_pmksa: Cache a PMKID for a BSSID. This is mostly useful for fullmac
1320 * devices running firmwares capable of generating the (re) association
1321 * RSN IE. It allows for faster roaming between WPA2 BSSIDs.
1322 * @del_pmksa: Delete a cached PMKID.
1323 * @flush_pmksa: Flush all cached PMKIDs.
1324 * @set_power_mgmt: Configure WLAN power management. A timeout value of -1
1325 * allows the driver to adjust the dynamic ps timeout value.
1326 * @set_cqm_rssi_config: Configure connection quality monitor RSSI threshold.
1327 * @sched_scan_start: Tell the driver to start a scheduled scan.
1328 * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the driver to stop an ongoing scheduled
1329 * scan. The driver_initiated flag specifies whether the driver
1330 * itself has informed that the scan has stopped.
1332 * @mgmt_frame_register: Notify driver that a management frame type was
1333 * registered. Note that this callback may not sleep, and cannot run
1334 * concurrently with itself.
1336 * @set_antenna: Set antenna configuration (tx_ant, rx_ant) on the device.
1337 * Parameters are bitmaps of allowed antennas to use for TX/RX. Drivers may
1338 * reject TX/RX mask combinations they cannot support by returning -EINVAL
1339 * (also see nl80211.h @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX).
1341 * @get_antenna: Get current antenna configuration from device (tx_ant, rx_ant).
1343 * @set_ringparam: Set tx and rx ring sizes.
1345 * @get_ringparam: Get tx and rx ring current and maximum sizes.

1541 * we will disregard the first regulatory hint (when the

1544 * ignore regulatory domain settings until it gets its own regulatory
1545 * domain via its regulatory_hint() unless the regulatory hint is
1546 * from a country IE. After its gets its own regulatory domain it will

2826 * Test mode is a set of utility functions to allow drivers to
2827 * interact with driver-specific tools to aid, for instance,
2828 * factory programming.
2830 * This chapter describes how drivers interact with it, for more
2831 * information see the nl80211 book's chapter on it.
2835 * cfg80211_testmode_alloc_reply_skb - allocate testmode reply
2837 * @approxlen: an upper bound of the length of the data that will
2838 * be put into the skb
2840 * This function allocates and pre-fills an skb for a reply to
2841 * the testmode command. Since it is intended for a reply, calling
2842 * it outside of the @testmode_cmd operation is invalid.
2844 * The returned skb (or %NULL if any errors happen) is pre-filled
2845 * with the wiphy index and set up in a way that any data that is
2846 * put into the skb (with skb_put(), nla_put() or similar) will end
2847 * up being within the %NL80211_ATTR_TESTDATA attribute, so all that
2848 * needs to be done with the skb is adding data for the corresponding
2849 * userspace tool which can then read that data out of the testdata
2850 * attribute. You must not modify the skb in any other way.
2852 * When done, call cfg80211_testmode_reply() with the skb and return
2853 * its error code as the result of the @testmode_cmd operation.

2864 * function will usually be the last thing before returning
2865 * from the @testmode_cmd you should return the error code.

2882 * same way as with cfg80211_testmode_alloc_reply_skb() but prepared
2883 * for an event. As there, you should simply add data to it that will
2884 * then end up in the %NL80211_ATTR_TESTDATA attribute. Again, you must
2885 * not modify the skb in any other way.
2887 * When done filling the skb, call cfg80211_testmode_event() with the
2888 * skb to send the event.
