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.

1320 * DOC: Powersave support
1321 *
1322 * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
1323 *
c99445b1
KV
1324 * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
1325 * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
1326 * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
1327 * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
1328 * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
1329 * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
1330 * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
1331 * it finds traffic directed to it.
1332 *
1333 * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
1334 * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
1335 * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
2738bd68
BC
1336 * up the hardware before issuing commands to the hardware and putting it
1337 * back to sleep at appropriate times.
c99445b1
KV
1338 *
1339 * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
1340 * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
1341 * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
4be8c387
JB
1342 *
1343 * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1344 * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1345 * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1346 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
955394c9
JB
1347 * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
1348 * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
c99445b1
KV
1349 * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
1350 *
1351 * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
1352 * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
1353 * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
1354 * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
1355 * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
1356 * periods.
1357 *
2738bd68 1358 * Dynamic powersave is simply supported by mac80211 enabling and disabling
c99445b1
KV
1359 * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1360 * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
1361 * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
1362 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
1363 * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
1364 * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
1365 * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
1366 * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
1367 * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
1368 *
f90754c1
JO
1369 * Some hardware need to toggle a single shared antenna between WLAN and
1370 * Bluetooth to facilitate co-existence. These types of hardware set
1371 * limitations on the use of host controlled dynamic powersave whenever there
1372 * is simultaneous WLAN and Bluetooth traffic. For these types of hardware, the
1373 * driver may request temporarily going into full power save, in order to
1374 * enable toggling the antenna between BT and WLAN. If the driver requests
1375 * disabling dynamic powersave, the @dynamic_ps_timeout value will be
1376 * temporarily set to zero until the driver re-enables dynamic powersave.
1377 *
c99445b1
KV
1378 * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
1379 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
1380 * uapsd paramater in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
1381 * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
1382 * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
1383 * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.

1389/**
1390 * DOC: Beacon filter support
1391 *
1392 * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1393 * which will reduce system power consumption. It usuallly works so that
1394 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1395 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
1396 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
1397 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1398 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1399 *
955394c9
JB
1400 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTER
1401 * hardware capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
1402 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
1403 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
1404 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
1405 *
1406 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
1407 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
1408 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
1409 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
1410 *
1411 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
1412 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
1413 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
1414 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
1415 * - a list of information element IDs
1416 * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
1417 *
1418 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
1419 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
1420 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
1421 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
1422 * vendor information elements.
1423 *
1424 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
1425 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
1426 *
1427 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
1428 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
1429 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
1430 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
1431 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
1432 * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
1433 *
1434 *
1435 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
1436 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
1437 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
1438 * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
1439 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
1440 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
1441 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
1442 * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
1443 *
1444 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
1445 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
1446 * signal strength threshold checking.

1467 *
1468 * To support this feature, the driver must set the appropriate

1475 * DOC: Frame filtering
1476 *
1477 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
1478 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
1479 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
1480 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1481 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1482 *
1483 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
1484 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
1485 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
1486 *
3ac64bee
JB
1487 * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
1488 * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
1489 * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
1490 * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
1491 * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
1492 * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
1493 * @total_flags with the new flag states.
75a5f0cc
JB
1494 *
1495 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
1496 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
1497 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
1498 * or dropped.
1499 *
d0f5afbe
MB
1500 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
1501 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
1502 * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
1503 * the flag, but not clear it.
1504 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
1505 * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
1506 * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
1507 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1508 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1509 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1510 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.

1590 * struct ieee80211_ops - callbacks from mac80211 to the driver
1591 *
1592 * This structure contains various callbacks that the driver may
1593 * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
1594 * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
1595 *
1596 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
1597 * skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
1598 * The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
eefce91a
JB
1599 * configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
1600 * preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately, more
1601 * importantly, however, it must never fail for A-MPDU-queues.
6dd1bf31
BC
1602 * This function should return NETDEV_TX_OK except in very
1603 * limited cases.
eefce91a 1604 * Must be implemented and atomic.
75a5f0cc
JB
1605 *
1606 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
1607 * is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
1608 * frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
1609 * Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
1610 * or zero.
1611 * When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
1612 * to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
1613 * is added.
e1781ed3 1614 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
75a5f0cc
JB
1615 *
1616 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
1617 * is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
1618 * it must turn off frame reception.)
1619 * May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
42935eca
LR
1620 * an interface. If you added any work onto the mac80211 workqueue
1621 * you should ensure to cancel it on this callback.
e1781ed3 1622 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
75a5f0cc 1623 *
eecc4800
JB
1624 * @suspend: Suspend the device; mac80211 itself will quiesce before and
1625 * stop transmitting and doing any other configuration, and then
1626 * ask the device to suspend. This is only invoked when WoWLAN is
1627 * configured, otherwise the device is deconfigured completely and
1628 * reconfigured at resume time.
1629 *
1630 * @resume: If WoWLAN was configured, this indicates that mac80211 is
1631 * now resuming its operation, after this the device must be fully
1632 * functional again. If this returns an error, the only way out is
1633 * to also unregister the device. If it returns 1, then mac80211
1634 * will also go through the regular complete restart on resume.
1635 *
75a5f0cc 1636 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
e37d4dff 1637 * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
75a5f0cc
JB
1638 * and @stop must be implemented.
1639 * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
1640 * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
1641 * interface is given in the conf parameter.
1642 * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
1643 * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
e1781ed3 1644 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
75a5f0cc 1645 *
34d4bc4d
JB
1646 * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback
1647 * is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be
1648 * switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep.
1649 * Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be
1650 * found by the interface iteration callbacks.
1651 *
75a5f0cc
JB
1652 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
1653 * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
1654 * and no monitor interfaces are present.
1655 * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
1656 * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
1657 * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
1658 * MAC address of the device going away.
e1781ed3 1659 * Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.
75a5f0cc
JB
1660 *
1661 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
1662 * function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
6dd1bf31 1663 * This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
e1781ed3 1664 * if it does. The callback can sleep.
75a5f0cc 1665 *
471b3efd
JB
1666 * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
1667 * parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
1668 * level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
1669 * This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
1670 * for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
e1781ed3
KV
1671 * of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback
1672 * can sleep.
471b3efd 1673 *
3ac64bee
JB
1674 * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration.
1675 * This callback is optional, and its return value is passed
1676 * to configure_filter(). This callback must be atomic.
1677 *
75a5f0cc
JB
1678 * @configure_filter: Configure the device's RX filter.
1679 * See the section "Frame filtering" for more information.
e1781ed3 1680 * This callback must be implemented and can sleep.
75a5f0cc 1681 *
546c80c9 1682 * @set_tim: Set TIM bit. mac80211 calls this function when a TIM bit
17741cdc 1683 * must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
75a5f0cc
JB
1684 *
1685 * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
e1781ed3
KV
1686 * This callback is only called between add_interface and
1687 * remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
dc822b5d 1688 * is enabled.
6dd1bf31 1689 * Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.
e1781ed3 1690 * The callback can sleep.
75a5f0cc 1691 *
9ae4fda3
EG
1692 * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
1693 * This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
1694 * which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
eb807fb2 1695 * The callback must be atomic.
9ae4fda3 1696 *
75a5f0cc 1697 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
8318d78a 1698 * the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
9050bdd8
KV
1699 * configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
1700 * registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
de95a54b
JB
1701 * that power save is disabled.
1702 * The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
1703 * entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
1704 * at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
1705 * (extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
1706 * When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
1707 * note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
1708 * any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
e1781ed3 1709 * The callback can sleep.
75a5f0cc 1710 *
79f460ca
LC
1711 * @sched_scan_start: Ask the hardware to start scanning repeatedly at
1712 * specific intervals. The driver must call the
1713 * ieee80211_sched_scan_results() function whenever it finds results.
1714 * This process will continue until sched_scan_stop is called.
1715 *
1716 * @sched_scan_stop: Tell the hardware to stop an ongoing scheduled scan.

80e775bf 1721 *
e1781ed3

62da92fb
JB
1731 * @get_tkip_seq: If your device implements TKIP encryption in hardware this
1732 * callback should be provided to read the TKIP transmit IVs (both IV32
1733 * and IV16) for the given key from hardware.
e1781ed3 1734 * The callback must be atomic.
75a5f0cc 1735 *
f23a4780
AN
1736 * @set_frag_threshold: Configuration of fragmentation threshold. Assign this
1737 * if the device does fragmentation by itself; if this callback is
1738 * implemented then the stack will not do fragmentation.
1739 * The callback can sleep.
1740 *
75a5f0cc 1741 * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
e1781ed3 1742 * The callback can sleep.

34e89507
JB
1744 * @sta_add: Notifies low level driver about addition of an associated station,
1745 * AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.

1750 * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about power state transition of an
d057e5a3
AN
1751 * associated station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. For a VIF operating
1752 * in AP mode, this callback will not be called when the flag

4571d3bf 1754 *
75a5f0cc 1755 * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
fe3fa827 1756 * bursting) for a hardware TX queue.

e1781ed3 1758 * The callback can sleep.
75a5f0cc 1759 *
75a5f0cc 1760 * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
3b5d665b 1761 * this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a

1770 * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
1771 * with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
1772 * function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of

75a5f0cc 1775 *
75a5f0cc
JB
1776 * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.

e1781ed3 1780 * The callback can sleep.
d3c990fb 1781 *
1b7d03ac
RR
1782 * @ampdu_action: Perform a certain A-MPDU action
1783 * The RA/TID combination determines the destination and TID we want
1784 * the ampdu action to be performed for. The action is defined through
1785 * ieee80211_ampdu_mlme_action. Starting sequence number (@ssn)

1838 *
1839 * @remain_on_channel: Starts an off-channel period on the given channel, must
1840 * call back to ieee80211_ready_on_channel() when on that channel. Note
1841 * that normal channel traffic is not stopped as this is intended for hw
1842 * offload. Frames to transmit on the off-channel channel are transmitted
1843 * normally except for the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN flag. When the
