854 * code is used more widely and we have a first user without wext.
856 * @suspend: wiphy device needs to be suspended
857 * @resume: wiphy device needs to be resumed
859 * @add_virtual_intf: create a new virtual interface with the given name,

861 * the new netdev in the wiphy's network namespace!

899 * @set_mesh_params: Set mesh parameters.

905 * @change_bss: Modify parameters for a given BSS.
907 * @set_txq_params: Set TX queue parameters
909 * @set_channel: Set channel
911 * @scan: Request to do a scan. If returning zero, the scan request is given
912 * the driver, and will be valid until passed to cfg80211_scan_done().
913 * For scan results, call cfg80211_inform_bss(); you can call this outside
914 * the scan/scan_done bracket too.
916 * @auth: Request to authenticate with the specified peer
917 * @assoc: Request to (re)associate with the specified peer
918 * @deauth: Request to deauthenticate from the specified peer
919 * @disassoc: Request to disassociate from the specified peer

924 * with the status from the AP.
925 * @disconnect: Disconnect from the BSS/ESS.
927 * @join_ibss: Join the specified IBSS (or create if necessary). Once done, call
928 * cfg80211_ibss_joined(), also call that function when changing BSSID due
930 * @leave_ibss: Leave the IBSS.
932 * @set_wiphy_params: Notify that wiphy parameters have changed;
933 * @changed bitfield (see &enum wiphy_params_flags) describes which values
934 * have changed. The actual parameter values are available in
935 * struct wiphy. If returning an error, no value should be changed.
937 * @set_tx_power: set the transmit power according to the parameters
938 * @get_tx_power: store the current TX power into the dbm variable;
939 * return 0 if successful
