  22. * DOC: Introduction
  23. *
  24. * mac80211 is the Linux stack for 802.11 hardware that implements
  25. * only partial functionality in hard- or firmware. This document
  26. * defines the interface between mac80211 and low-level hardware
  27. * drivers.

  31. *
  32. * Only ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe() and ieee80211_rx_irqsafe() can be
  33. * called in hardware interrupt context. The low-level driver must not call any
  34. * other functions in hardware interrupt context. If there is a need for such
  35. * call, the low-level driver should first ACK the interrupt and perform the
  36. * IEEE 802.11 code call after this, e.g. from a scheduled workqueue or even
  37. * tasklet function.
  38. *
  39. * NOTE: If the driver opts to use the _irqsafe() functions, it may not also
  40. * use the non-IRQ-safe functions!

  49. * DOC: Frame format
  50. *
  51. * As a general rule, when frames are passed between mac80211 and the driver,
  52. * they start with the IEEE 802.11 header and include the same octets that are
  53. * sent over the air except for the FCS which should be calculated by the
  54. * hardware.
  55. *
  56. * There are, however, various exceptions to this rule for advanced features:
  57. *
  58. * The first exception is for hardware encryption and decryption offload
  59. * where the IV/ICV may or may not be generated in hardware.
  60. *
  61. * Secondly, when the hardware handles fragmentation, the frame handed to
  62. * the driver from mac80211 is the MSDU, not the MPDU.
  63. *
  64. * Finally, for received frames, the driver is able to indicate that it has
  65. * filled a radiotap header and put that in front of the frame; if it does
  66. * not do so then mac80211 may add this under certain circumstances.

  72. * The workqueue is a single threaded workqueue and can only be accessed by
  73. * helpers for sanity checking. Drivers must ensure all work added onto the
  74. * mac80211 workqueue should be cancelled on the driver stop() callback.

  1037. * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.

  1067. * DOC: Powersave support
  1068. *
  1069. * mac80211 has support for various powersave implementations.
  1070. *
  1071. * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by
  1072. * itself, such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
  1073. * hardware flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired
  1074. * powersave mode depending on the association status, and the driver
  1075. * must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary, i.e. when
  1076. * entering and leaving powersave mode. The driver is required to look at
  1077. * the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when it finds
  1078. * traffic directed to it. This mode supports dynamic PS by simply
  1079. * enabling/disabling PS.
  1080. *
  1081. * Additionally, such hardware may set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS
  1082. * flag to indicate that it can support dynamic PS mode itself (see below).
  1083. *
  1084. * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
  1085. * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
  1086. * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
  1087. * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
  1088. * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
  1089. * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
  1090. * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow.
  1091. *
  1092. * Dynamic powersave mode is an extension to normal powersave mode in which
  1093. * the hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending
  1094. * a frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed
  1095. * to the next wakeup. This can either be supported by hardware, in which case
  1096. * the driver needs to look at the @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration
  1097. * value, or by the stack if all nullfunc handling is in the stack.

  1099. /**
  1100. * DOC: Beacon filter support
  1101. *
  1102. * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
  1103. * which will reduce system power consumption. It usuallly works so that
  1104. * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
  1105. * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
  1106. * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
  1107. * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
  1108. * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
  1109. *
  1110. * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTER
  1111. * hardware capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
  1112. * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
  1113. * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
  1114. * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
  1115. *
  1116. * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
  1117. * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
  1118. * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
  1119. * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
  1120. *
  1121. * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
  1122. * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
  1123. * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
  1124. * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
  1125. * - a list of information element IDs
  1126. * - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
  1127. *
  1128. * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
  1129. * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
  1130. * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
  1131. * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
  1132. * vendor information elements.
  1133. *
  1134. * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
  1135. * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
  1136. *
  1137. * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
  1138. * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
  1139. * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
  1140. * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
  1141. * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
  1142. * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
  1143. *
  1144. *
  1145. * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
  1146. * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
  1147. * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
  1148. * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
  1149. * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
  1150. * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
  1151. * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
  1152. * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
  1153. *
  1154. * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
  1155. * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
  1156. * signal strength threshold checking.

  1159. * DOC: Spatial multiplexing power save
  1160. *
  1161. * SMPS (Spatial multiplexing power save) is a mechanism to conserve

  1163. * and rationale, please refer to 802.11 (as amended by 802.11n-2009)
  1164. * "11.2.3 SM power save".
  1165. *
  1166. * The mac80211 implementation is capable of sending action frames
  1167. * to update the AP about the station's SMPS mode, and will instruct
  1168. * the driver to enter the specific mode. It will also announce the
  1169. * requested SMPS mode during the association handshake. Hardware
  1170. * support for this feature is required, and can be indicated by

  1175. * turned off otherwise.

  1177. * To support this feature, the driver must set the appropriate
  1178. * hardware support flags, and handle the SMPS flag to the config()

  1183. * DOC: Frame filtering
  1184. *
  1185. * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
  1186. * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
  1187. * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
  1188. * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
  1189. * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
  1190. *
  1191. * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
  1192. * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
  1193. * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
  1194. *
  1195. * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
  1196. * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
  1197. * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
  1198. * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
  1199. * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
  1200. * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
  1201. * @total_flags with the new flag states.
  1202. *
  1203. * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
  1204. * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
  1205. * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
  1206. * or dropped.
  1207. *
  1208. * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
  1209. * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
  1210. * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
  1211. * the flag, but not clear it.
  1212. * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
  1213. * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
  1214. * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
  1215. * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
  1216. * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
  1217. * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
  1218. * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
