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.

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.

1309 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1310 *
1311 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1312 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be

1340 * DOC: Powersave support
1341 *
1342 * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
1343 *
c99445b1
KV
1344 * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
1345 * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
1346 * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
1347 * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
1348 * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
1349 * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
1350 * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
1351 * it finds traffic directed to it.
1352 *
1353 * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
1354 * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
1355 * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
2738bd68
BC
1356 * up the hardware before issuing commands to the hardware and putting it
1357 * back to sleep at appropriate times.
c99445b1
KV
1358 *
1359 * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
1360 * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
1361 * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
4be8c387
JB
1362 *
1363 * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1364 * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1365 * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1366 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
955394c9
JB
1367 * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
1368 * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
c99445b1
KV
1369 * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
1370 *
1371 * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
1372 * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
1373 * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
1374 * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
1375 * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
1376 * periods.
1377 *
2738bd68 1378 * Dynamic powersave is simply supported by mac80211 enabling and disabling
c99445b1
KV
1379 * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1380 * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
1381 * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
1382 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
1383 * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
1384 * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
1385 * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
1386 * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
1387 * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
1388 *
f90754c1
JO
1389 * Some hardware need to toggle a single shared antenna between WLAN and
1390 * Bluetooth to facilitate co-existence. These types of hardware set
1391 * limitations on the use of host controlled dynamic powersave whenever there
1392 * is simultaneous WLAN and Bluetooth traffic. For these types of hardware, the
1393 * driver may request temporarily going into full power save, in order to
1394 * enable toggling the antenna between BT and WLAN. If the driver requests
1395 * disabling dynamic powersave, the @dynamic_ps_timeout value will be
1396 * temporarily set to zero until the driver re-enables dynamic powersave.
1397 *
c99445b1

1398 * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
1399 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
1400 * uapsd paramater in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
1401 * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
1402 * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
1403 * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.

1410 * DOC: Beacon filter support
1411 *
1412 * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1413 * which will reduce system power consumption. It usuallly works so that
1414 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1415 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
1416 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
1417 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1418 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1419 *
955394c9
JB
1420 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTER
1421 * hardware capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
1422 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
1423 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
1424 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
1425 *
1426 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
1427 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
1428 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
1429 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
1430 *
1431 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
1432 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
1433 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
1434 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
1435 * - a list of information element IDs
1436 * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
1437 *
1438 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
1439 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
1440 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
1441 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
1442 * vendor information elements.
1443 *
1444 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
1445 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
1446 *
1447 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
1448 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
1449 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
1450 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
1451 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
1452 * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
1453 *
1454 *
1455 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
1456 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
1457 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
1458 * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
1459 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
1460 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
1461 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
1462 * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
1463 *
1464 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
1465 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
1466 * signal strength threshold checking.

1495 * DOC: Frame filtering
1496 *
1497 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper

1500 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1501 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1502 *
1503 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell

1510 * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to

1520 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.

1527 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1528 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1529 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1530 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.

1628 * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
1629 *
1630 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
1631 * skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
1632 * The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
eefce91a
JB
1633 * configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
1634 * preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately, more
1635 * importantly, however, it must never fail for A-MPDU-queues.
6dd1bf31
BC
1636 * This function should return NETDEV_TX_OK except in very
1637 * limited cases.
eefce91a 1638 * Must be implemented and atomic.
75a5f0cc
JB
1639 *
1640 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
1641 * is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
1642 * frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
1643 * Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
1644 * or zero.
1645 * When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
1646 * to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
1647 * is added.
e1781ed3 1648 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
75a5f0cc
JB
1649 *
1650 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
1651 * is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
1652 * it must turn off frame reception.)
1653 * May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
42935eca
LR
1654 * an interface. If you added any work onto the mac80211 workqueue
1655 * you should ensure to cancel it on this callback.
e1781ed3 1656 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
75a5f0cc 1657 *
eecc4800
JB
1658 * @suspend: Suspend the device; mac80211 itself will quiesce before and
1659 * stop transmitting and doing any other configuration, and then
1660 * ask the device to suspend. This is only invoked when WoWLAN is
1661 * configured, otherwise the device is deconfigured completely and
1662 * reconfigured at resume time.
2b4562df
JB
1663 * The driver may also impose special conditions under which it
1664 * wants to use the "normal" suspend (deconfigure), say if it only
1665 * supports WoWLAN when the device is associated. In this case, it
1666 * must return 1 from this function.
eecc4800
JB
1667 *
1668 * @resume: If WoWLAN was configured, this indicates that mac80211 is
1669 * now resuming its operation, after this the device must be fully
1670 * functional again. If this returns an error, the only way out is
1671 * to also unregister the device. If it returns 1, then mac80211
1672 * will also go through the regular complete restart on resume.
1673 *
75a5f0cc 1674 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
e37d4dff 1675 * enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
75a5f0cc
JB
1676 * and @stop must be implemented.
1677 * The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
1678 * the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
1679 * interface is given in the conf parameter.
1680 * The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
1681 * negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
e1781ed3 1682 * Must be implemented and can sleep.
75a5f0cc 1683 *
34d4bc4d
JB
1684 * @change_interface: Called when a netdevice changes type. This callback
1685 * is optional, but only if it is supported can interface types be
1686 * switched while the interface is UP. The callback may sleep.
1687 * Note that while an interface is being switched, it will not be
1688 * found by the interface iteration callbacks.
1689 *
75a5f0cc
JB
1690 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
1691 * The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
1692 * and no monitor interfaces are present.
1693 * When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
1694 * must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
1695 * the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
1696 * MAC address of the device going away.
e1781ed3 1697 * Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.

1705 * parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
1706 * level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
1707 * This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
1708 * for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
e1781ed3

1710 * can sleep.
471b3efd 1711 *
b2abb6e2
JB
1712 * @tx_sync: Called before a frame is sent to an AP/GO. In the GO case, the
1713 * driver should sync with the GO's powersaving so the device doesn't
1714 * transmit the frame while the GO is asleep. In the regular AP case
1715 * it may be used by drivers for devices implementing other restrictions
1716 * on talking to APs, e.g. due to regulatory enforcement or just HW
1717 * restrictions.
1718 * This function is called for every authentication, association and
1719 * action frame separately since applications might attempt to auth
1720 * with multiple APs before chosing one to associate to. If it returns
1721 * an error, the corresponding authentication, association or frame
1722 * transmission is aborted and reported as having failed. It is always
1723 * called after tuning to the correct channel.
1724 * The callback might be called multiple times before @finish_tx_sync
1725 * (but @finish_tx_sync will be called once for each) but in practice
1726 * this is unlikely to happen. It can also refuse in that case if the
1727 * driver cannot handle that situation.
1728 * This callback can sleep.

1758 * After rekeying was done it should (for example during resume) notify
1759 * userspace of the new replay counter using ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify().

75a5f0cc 1761 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start

KV
1763 * configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
1764 * registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
de95a54b
JB
1765 * that power save is disabled.
1766 * The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
1767 * entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
1768 * at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
1769 * (extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
1770 * When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
1771 * note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
1772 * any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.

1913 * that normal channel traffic is not stopped as this is intended for hw
1914 * offload. Frames to transmit on the off-channel channel are transmitted
1915 * normally except for the %IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN flag. When the
1916 * duration (which will always be non-zero) expires, the driver must call
1917 * ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired(). This callback may sleep.
