26 * DOC: Introduction
27 *
28 * mac80211 is the Linux stack for 802.11 hardware that implements
29 * only partial functionality in hard- or firmware. This document
30 * defines the interface between mac80211 and low-level hardware
31 * drivers.

35 * DOC: Calling mac80211 from interrupts
36 *
37 * Only ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe() and ieee80211_rx_irqsafe() can be
f0706e82
JB
38 * called in hardware interrupt context. The low-level driver must not call any
39 * other functions in hardware interrupt context. If there is a need for such
40 * call, the low-level driver should first ACK the interrupt and perform the
75a5f0cc 41 * IEEE 802.11 code call after this, e.g. from a scheduled workqueue function.

51/**
52 * DOC: Frame format
53 *
54 * As a general rule, when frames are passed between mac80211 and the driver,
55 * they start with the IEEE 802.11 header and include the same octets that are
56 * sent over the air except for the FCS which should be calculated by the
57 * hardware.
58 *
59 * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features:
60 *
61 * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload
62 * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware.
63 *
64 * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to
65 * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU.
66 *
67 * Finally, for received frames, the driver is able to indicate that it has
68 * filled a radiotap header and put that in front of the frame; if it does
69 * not do so then mac80211 may add this under certain circumstances.

923 * struct ieee80211_ops - callbacks from mac80211 to the driver
924 *
925 * This structure contains various callbacks that the driver may
926 * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
927 * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
928 *
929 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
930 * skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
931 * The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
932 * configuration in the TX control data. Must be implemented and
933 * atomic.
934 *
935 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
936 * is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
937 * frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
938 * Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
939 * or zero.
940 * When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
941 * to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
942 * is added.
943 * Must be implemented.
944 *
945 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
946 * is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
947 * it must turn off frame reception.)
948 * May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
949 * an interface.
950 * Must be implemented.
951 *
952 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
953 * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @open
954 * and @stop must be implemented.
955 * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
956 * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
957 * interface is given in the conf parameter.
958 * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
959 * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
960 * Must be implemented.
961 *
962 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
963 * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
964 * and no monitor interfaces are present.
965 * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
966 * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
967 * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
968 * MAC address of the device going away.
969 * Hence, this callback must be implemented.
970 *
971 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
972 * function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
973 *
974 * @config_interface: Handler for configuration requests related to interfaces
975 * (e.g. BSSID changes.)
976 *
977 * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
978 * See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
979 * This callback must be implemented and atomic.
980 *
981 * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. If the hardware/firmware takes care of beacon
982 * generation (that is, %IEEE80211_HW_HOST_GEN_BEACON_TEMPLATE is set)
983 * mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit must be set or cleared
984 * for a given AID. Must be atomic.
985 *
986 * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
987 * This callback can sleep, and is only called between add_interface
988 * and remove_interface calls, i.e. while the interface with the
989 * given local_address is enabled.
990 *
75a5f0cc
JB
991 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
992 * the scan state machine in stack.
993 *
994 * @get_stats: return low-level statistics
995 *
62da92fb
JB
996 * @get_tkip_seq: If your device implements TKIP encryption in hardware this
997 * callback should be provided to read the TKIP transmit IVs (both IV32
998 * and IV16) for the given key from hardware.
75a5f0cc
JB
999 *
1000 * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
1001 *
1002 * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this if
1003 * the device does fragmentation by itself; if this method is assigned then
1004 * the stack will not do fragmentation.
1005 *
1006 * @set_retry_limit: Configuration of retry limits (if device needs it)
1007 *
478f8d2b
TW
1008 * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about addition or removal
1009 * of assocaited station or AP.
75a5f0cc
JB
1010 *
1011 * @erp_ie_changed: Handle ERP IE change notifications. Must be atomic.
1012 *
1013 * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
1014 * bursting) for a hardware TX queue. The @queue parameter uses the
1015 * %IEEE80211_TX_QUEUE_* constants. Must be atomic.
1016 *
1017 * @get_tx_stats: Get statistics of the current TX queue status. This is used
1018 * to get number of currently queued packets (queue length), maximum queue
1019 * size (limit), and total number of packets sent using each TX queue
1020 * (count). This information is used for WMM to find out which TX
1021 * queues have room for more packets and by hostapd to provide
1022 * statistics about the current queueing state to external programs.
1023 *
1024 * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
1025 * this is only used for IBSS mode debugging and, as such, is not a
1026 * required function. Must be atomic.
1027 *
1028 * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
1029 * with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
1030 * function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
1031 * TSF synchronization.
1032 *
1033 * @beacon_update: Setup beacon data for IBSS beacons. Unlike access point,
1034 * IBSS uses a fixed beacon frame which is configured using this
5ecc2a5d
MB
1035 * function.
1036 * If the driver returns success (0) from this callback, it owns
1037 * the skb. That means the driver is responsible to kfree_skb() it.
1038 * The control structure is not dynamically allocated. That means the
1039 * driver does not own the pointer and if it needs it somewhere
1040 * outside of the context of this function, it must copy it
1041 * somewhere else.
1042 * This handler is required only for IBSS mode.
75a5f0cc
JB
1043 *
1044 * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
1045 * This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
1046 * used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
d3c990fb
RR
1047 *
1048 * @conf_ht: Configures low level driver with 802.11n HT data. Must be atomic.
