25 * DOC: Introduction
26 *
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
35 *
36 * Only ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe() and ieee80211_rx_irqsafe() can be
f0706e82
JB
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
2485f710
JB
40 * IEEE 802.11 code call after this, e.g. from a scheduled workqueue or even
41 * tasklet function.
42 *
43 * NOTE: If the driver opts to use the _irqsafe() functions, it may not also
6ef307bc 44 * use the non-IRQ-safe functions!

54/**
55 * DOC: Frame format
56 *
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.
61 *
62 * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features:
63 *
64 * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload
65 * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware.
66 *
67 * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to
68 * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU.
69 *
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.

76 * DOC: mac80211 workqueue
77 *
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.
82 *
83 * mac80211 will flushed the workqueue upon interface removal and during
84 * suspend.

1181 * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware
1182 * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.

1184 * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1185 * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
dc822b5d
JB
1186 * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1187 * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1188 * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
75a5f0cc

1189 * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1190 * VLANs are configured for an access point.
4150c572 1191 *
75a5f0cc
JB
1192 * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1193 * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1194 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1195 *
1196 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1197 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1198 * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
1199 * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
1200 *
1201 * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
1202 *
1203 * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
1204 * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
1205 * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
1206 * based on the receive flags.
1207 *
1208 * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
1209 * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
1210 * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate

1213 * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption

1216 * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
1217 * This happens everytime the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The

1224/**
1225 * DOC: Powersave support
1226 *
1227 * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
1228 *
c99445b1
KV
1229 * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
1230 * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
1231 * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
1232 * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
1233 * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
1234 * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
1235 * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
1236 * it finds traffic directed to it.
1237 *
1238 * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
1239 * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
1240 * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
1241 * up the hardware before issueing commands to the hardware and putting it
1242 * back to sleep at approriate times.
1243 *
1244 * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
1245 * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
1246 * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
4be8c387
JB
1247 *
1248 * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1249 * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1250 * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1251 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
955394c9
JB
1252 * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
1253 * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
c99445b1
KV
1254 * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
1255 *
1256 * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
1257 * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
1258 * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
1259 * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
1260 * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
1261 * periods.
1262 *
1263 * Dynamic powersave is supported by simply mac80211 enabling and disabling
1264 * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1265 * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
1266 * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
1267 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
1268 * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
1269 * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
1270 * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
1271 * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
1272 * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
1273 *
1274 * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
1275 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
1276 * uapsd paramater in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
1277 * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
1278 * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
1279 * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.
1280 *
1281 * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with
1282 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK.

1285/**
1286 * DOC: Beacon filter support
1287 *
1288 * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1289 * which will reduce system power consumption. It usuallly works so that
1290 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1291 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
1292 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
1293 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1294 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1295 *
955394c9
JB
1296 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTER
1297 * hardware capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
1298 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
1299 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
1300 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
1301 *
1302 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
1303 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
1304 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
1305 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
1306 *
1307 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
1308 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
1309 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
1310 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
1311 * - a list of information element IDs
1312 * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
1313 *
1314 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
1315 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
1316 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
1317 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
1318 * vendor information elements.
1319 *
1320 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
1321 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
1322 *
1323 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
1324 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
1325 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
1326 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
1327 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
1328 * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
1329 *
1330 *
1331 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
1332 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
1333 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
1334 * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
1335 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
1336 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
1337 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
1338 * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
1339 *
1340 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
1341 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
1342 * signal strength threshold checking.

1346 * DOC: Spatial multiplexing power save
1347 *
1348 * SMPS (Spatial multiplexing power save) is a mechanism to conserve

1351 * "11.2.3 SM power save".
1352 *
1353 * The mac80211 implementation is capable of sending action frames
1354 * to update the AP about the station's SMPS mode, and will instruct
1355 * the driver to enter the specific mode. It will also announce the

1361 * defines to be dynamic SMPS in (regular) powersave, and SMPS
1362 * turned off otherwise.
1363 *
1364 * To support this feature, the driver must set the appropriate

1371 * DOC: Frame filtering
1372 *
1373 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
1374 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
1375 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
1376 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1377 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1378 *
1379 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
1380 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
1381 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
1382 *
3ac64bee
JB
1383 * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
1384 * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
1385 * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
1386 * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
1387 * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
1388 * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
1389 * @total_flags with the new flag states.
75a5f0cc
JB
1390 *
1391 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
1392 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
1393 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
1394 * or dropped.
1395 *
d0f5afbe
MB
1396 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
1397 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
1398 * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
1399 * the flag, but not clear it.
1400 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
1401 * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
1402 * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
1403 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1404 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1405 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1406 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
