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
Jiri Bencf0706e82007-05-05 11:45:53 -070038 * 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
Johannes Berg2485f712008-02-25 16:27:41 +010041 * IEEE 802.11 code call after this, e.g. from a scheduled workqueue or even
42 * tasklet function.
43 *
44 * NOTE: If the driver opts to use the _irqsafe() functions, it may not also
Randy Dunlap6ef307b2008-07-03 13:52:18 -070045 * use the non-IRQ-safe functions!

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -040058 * As a general rule, when frames are passed between mac80211 and the driver,
59 * they start with the IEEE 802.11 header and include the same octets that are
60 * sent over the air except for the FCS which should be calculated by the
61 * hardware.
62 *
63 * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features:
64 *
65 * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload
66 * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware.
67 *
68 * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to
69 * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU.
70 *
71 * Finally, for received frames, the driver is able to indicate that it has
72 * filled a radiotap header and put that in front of the frame; if it does
73 * not do so then mac80211 may add this under certain circumstances.

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001047 * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware
1048 * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.
1049 *
1050 * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1051 * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
Johannes Bergdc822b52008-12-29 12:55:09 +01001052 * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1053 * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1054 * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001055 * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1056 * VLANs are configured for an access point.
1057 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001058 * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1059 * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1060 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1061 *
1062 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1063 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1064 * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
1065 * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
1066 *
1067 * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
1068 *
1069 * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
1070 * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
1071 * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
1072 * based on the receive flags.
1073 *
1074 * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
1075 * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
1076 * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
1077 * keys.
Emmanuel Grumbach9ae4fda2008-03-20 15:06:42 +02001078 *
1079 * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
1080 * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
1081 * handler.
1082 * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
1083 * This happens everytime the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
1084 * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
1085 * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
Bob Copelande37d4df2008-10-20 21:20:27 -04001086 * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this

Johannes Berg4be8c382009-01-07 18:28:20 +01001091 * DOC: Powersave support
1092 *
1093 * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
1094 *
1095 * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by
1096 * itself, such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1097 * hardware flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired
1098 * powersave mode depending on the association status, and the driver
1099 * must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary, i.e. when
1100 * entering and leaving powersave mode. The driver is required to look at
1101 * the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when it finds
1102 * traffic directed to it. This mode supports dynamic PS by simply
1103 * enabling/disabling PS.
1104 *
1105 * Additionally, such hardware may set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS
1106 * flag to indicate that it can support dynamic PS mode itself (see below).
1107 *
1108 * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1109 * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1110 * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1111 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
1112 * required to pass up beacons. Additionally, in this case, mac80211 will
1113 * wake up the hardware when multicast traffic is announced in the beacon.
1114 *
1115 * FIXME: I don't think we can be fast enough in software when we want to
1116 * receive multicast traffic?
1117 *
1118 * Dynamic powersave mode is an extension to normal powersave mode in which
1119 * the hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending
1120 * a frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed
1121 * to the next wakeup. This can either be supported by hardware, in which case
1122 * the driver needs to look at the @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration
1123 * value, or by the stack if all nullfunc handling is in the stack.

Kalle Valo04de8382009-03-22 21:57:35 +02001127 * DOC: Beacon filter support
1128 *
1129 * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1130 * which will reduce system power consumption. It usuallly works so that
1131 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1132 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the

1134 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1135 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1136 *
1137 * Beacon filter support is informed with %IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTER flag.
1138 * The driver needs to enable beacon filter support whenever power save is
1139 * enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When power save is enabled,
1140 * the stack will not check for beacon miss at all and the driver needs to

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001145 * DOC: Frame filtering
1146 *
1147 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
1148 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
1149 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
1150 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1151 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1152 *
1153 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
1154 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
1155 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
1156 *
1157 * The configure_filter() callback is invoked with the parameters
1158 * @mc_count and @mc_list for the combined multicast address list
1159 * of all virtual interfaces, @changed_flags telling which flags
1160 * were changed and @total_flags with the new flag states.
1161 *
1162 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
1163 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
1164 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
1165 * or dropped.
1166 *
Michael Bueschd0f5afb2008-02-12 20:12:45 +01001167 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
1168 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
1169 * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
1170 * the flag, but not clear it.
1171 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
1172 * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
1173 * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
1174 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1175 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1176 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1177 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
1178 * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.

1243/**
1244 * struct ieee80211_ops - callbacks from mac80211 to the driver
1245 *
1246 * This structure contains various callbacks that the driver may
1247 * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
1248 * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
1249 *
1250 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
1251 * skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
1252 * The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
Johannes Bergeefce912008-05-17 00:57:13 +02001253 * configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
1254 * preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately, more
1255 * importantly, however, it must never fail for A-MPDU-queues.
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001256 * This function should return NETDEV_TX_OK except in very
1257 * limited cases.
Johannes Bergeefce912008-05-17 00:57:13 +02001258 * Must be implemented and atomic.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001259 *
1260 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
1261 * is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
1262 * frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
1263 * Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
1264 * or zero.
1265 * When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
1266 * to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
1267 * is added.
1268 * Must be implemented.
1269 *
1270 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
1271 * is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
1272 * it must turn off frame reception.)
1273 * May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
1274 * an interface.
1275 * Must be implemented.
1276 *
1277 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
Bob Copelande37d4df2008-10-20 21:20:27 -04001278 * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001279 * and @stop must be implemented.
1280 * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
1281 * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
1282 * interface is given in the conf parameter.
1283 * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
1284 * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
1285 * Must be implemented.
1286 *
1287 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
1288 * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
1289 * and no monitor interfaces are present.
1290 * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
1291 * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
1292 * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
1293 * MAC address of the device going away.
1294 * Hence, this callback must be implemented.
1295 *
1296 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
1297 * function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001298 * This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
1299 * if it does.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001300 *
1301 * @config_interface: Handler for configuration requests related to interfaces
1302 * (e.g. BSSID changes.)
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001303 * Returns a negative error code which will be seen in userspace.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001304 *
Johannes Berg471b3ef2007-12-28 14:32:58 +01001305 * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
1306 * parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
1307 * level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
1308 * This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
1309 * for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
Reinette Chatred18ef292008-04-09 16:56:15 -07001310 * of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made.

Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001312 * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
1313 * See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
1314 * This callback must be implemented and atomic.
1315 *
Luis R. Rodriguez546c80c92008-08-14 11:43:20 -07001316 * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
Johannes Berg17741cd2008-09-11 00:02:02 +02001317 * must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001318 *
1319 * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
1320 * This callback can sleep, and is only called between add_interface
Johannes Bergdc822b52008-12-29 12:55:09 +01001321 * and remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
1322 * is enabled.
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001323 * Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001324 *
Emmanuel Grumbach9ae4fda2008-03-20 15:06:42 +02001325 * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
1326 * This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
1327 * which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
1328 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001329 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
Johannes Berg8318d782008-01-24 19:38:38 +01001330 * the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
Kalle Valo9050bdd2009-03-22 21:57:21 +02001331 * configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
1332 * registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
1333 * that power save is disabled. When the scan finishes,
1334 * ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called; note that it also must
1335 * be called when the scan cannot finish because the hardware is
1336 * turned off! Anything else is a bug! Returns a negative error code
1337 * which will be seen in userspace.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001338 *
Michael Buesch80e775b2009-02-20 15:37:03 +01001339 * @sw_scan_start: Notifier function that is called just before a software scan
1340 * is started. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
1341 *
1342 * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a software scan
1343 * finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
1344 *
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001345 * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
1346 * Returns zero if statistics are available.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001347 *
Johannes Berg62da92f2007-12-19 02:03:31 +01001348 * @get_tkip_seq: If your device implements TKIP encryption in hardware this
1349 * callback should be provided to read the TKIP transmit IVs (both IV32
1350 * and IV16) for the given key from hardware.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001351 *
1352 * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
1353 *
Christian Lamparter89fad572008-12-09 16:28:06 +01001354 * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about addition, removal or power
1355 * state transition of an associated station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc.
1356 * Must be atomic.
Christian Lamparter4571d3b2008-11-30 00:48:41 +01001357 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001358 * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
Johannes Bergfe3fa822008-09-08 11:05:09 +02001359 * bursting) for a hardware TX queue.
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001360 * Returns a negative error code on failure.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001361 *
1362 * @get_tx_stats: Get statistics of the current TX queue status. This is used
1363 * to get number of currently queued packets (queue length), maximum queue
1364 * size (limit), and total number of packets sent using each TX queue
Johannes Berge4e72fb2009-03-23 17:28:42 +01001365 * (count). The 'stats' pointer points to an array that has hw->queues
1366 * items.
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001367 *
1368 * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
Alina Friedrichsen3b5d6652009-01-24 07:09:59 +01001369 * this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a
Alina Friedrichsen7b08b3b2009-02-05 17:58:34 +01001370 * required function.
Alina Friedrichsen3b5d6652009-01-24 07:09:59 +01001371 *
1372 * @set_tsf: Set the TSF timer to the specified value in the firmware/hardware.
1373 * Currently, this is only used for IBSS mode debugging. Is not a

1376 * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
1377 * with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
1378 * function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
1379 * TSF synchronization.
1380 *
Johannes Berg75a5f0c2007-09-18 17:29:20 -04001381 * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
1382 * This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
1383 * used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
Bob Copeland6dd1bf32009-01-08 21:00:34 -05001384 * Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon.
