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.

34/**
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.

864 *
865 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.

867 * The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
868 * configuration in the TX control data. Must be implemented and

870 *
871 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
872 * is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
873 * frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
874 * Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
875 * or zero.
876 * When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
877 * to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
878 * is added.
879 * Must be implemented.
880 *
881 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
882 * is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
883 * it must turn off frame reception.)
884 * May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
885 * an interface.
886 * Must be implemented.
887 *
888 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
889 * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @open
890 * and @stop must be implemented.
891 * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
892 * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
893 * interface is given in the conf parameter.
894 * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
895 * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
896 * Must be implemented.
897 *
898 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
899 * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
900 * and no monitor interfaces are present.
901 * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
902 * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
903 * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
904 * MAC address of the device going away.
905 * Hence, this callback must be implemented.
906 *
907 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
908 * function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
909 *
910 * @config_interface: Handler for configuration requests related to interfaces
911 * (e.g. BSSID changes.)
912 *
913 * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
914 * See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
915 * This callback must be implemented and atomic.
916 *
917 * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. If the hardware/firmware takes care of beacon
918 * generation (that is, %IEEE80211_HW_HOST_GEN_BEACON_TEMPLATE is set)
919 * mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit must be set or cleared
920 * for a given AID. Must be atomic.
921 *
922 * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
923 * This callback can sleep, and is only called between add_interface
924 * and remove_interface calls, i.e. while the interface with the
925 * given local_address is enabled.
926 *
927 * @set_ieee8021x: Enable/disable IEEE 802.1X. This item requests wlan card
928 * to pass unencrypted EAPOL-Key frames even when encryption is
929 * configured. If the wlan card does not require such a configuration,
930 * this function pointer can be set to NULL.
931 *
932 * @set_port_auth: Set port authorization state (IEEE 802.1X PAE) to be
933 * authorized (@authorized=1) or unauthorized (=0). This function can be
934 * used if the wlan hardware or low-level driver implements PAE.
935 * mac80211 will filter frames based on authorization state in any case,
936 * so this function pointer can be NULL if low-level driver does not
937 * require event notification about port state changes.
938 *
939 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
940 * the scan state machine in stack.
941 *
942 * @get_stats: return low-level statistics
943 *
944 * @set_privacy_invoked: For devices that generate their own beacons and probe
945 * response or association responses this updates the state of privacy_invoked
946 * returns 0 for success or an error number.
947 *
948 * @get_sequence_counter: For devices that have internal sequence counters this
949 * callback allows mac80211 to access the current value of a counter.
950 * This callback seems not well-defined, tell us if you need it.
951 *
952 * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
953 *
954 * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this if
955 * the device does fragmentation by itself; if this method is assigned then
956 * the stack will not do fragmentation.
957 *
958 * @set_retry_limit: Configuration of retry limits (if device needs it)
959 *
960 * @sta_table_notification: Number of STAs in STA table notification. Must
961 * be atomic.
962 *
963 * @erp_ie_changed: Handle ERP IE change notifications. Must be atomic.
964 *
965 * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
966 * bursting) for a hardware TX queue. The @queue parameter uses the
967 * %IEEE80211_TX_QUEUE_* constants. Must be atomic.
968 *
969 * @get_tx_stats: Get statistics of the current TX queue status. This is used
970 * to get number of currently queued packets (queue length), maximum queue
971 * size (limit), and total number of packets sent using each TX queue
972 * (count). This information is used for WMM to find out which TX
973 * queues have room for more packets and by hostapd to provide
974 * statistics about the current queueing state to external programs.
975 *
976 * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
977 * this is only used for IBSS mode debugging and, as such, is not a
978 * required function. Must be atomic.
979 *
980 * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
981 * with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
982 * function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
983 * TSF synchronization.
984 *
985 * @beacon_update: Setup beacon data for IBSS beacons. Unlike access point,
986 * IBSS uses a fixed beacon frame which is configured using this
987 * function. This handler is required only for IBSS mode.
988 *
989 * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
990 * This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
991 * used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.

1300 *
1301 * Function for accessing buffered broadcast and multicast frames. If
1302 * hardware/firmware does not implement buffering of broadcast/multicast
1303 * frames when power saving is used, 802.11 code buffers them in the host
1304 * memory. The low-level driver uses this function to fetch next buffered
1305 * frame. In most cases, this is used when generating beacon frame. This
1306 * function returns a pointer to the next buffered skb or NULL if no more
1307 * buffered frames are available.
1308 *
1309 * Note: buffered frames are returned only after DTIM beacon frame was
1310 * generated with ieee80211_beacon_get() and the low-level driver must thus
1311 * call ieee80211_beacon_get() first. ieee80211_get_buffered_bc() returns
1312 * NULL if the previous generated beacon was not DTIM, so the low-level driver
1313 * does not need to check for DTIM beacons separately and should be able to
1314 * use common code for all beacons.
