  24/**
  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.
  31 */
  32
  33/**
  34 * DOC: Calling mac80211 from interrupts
  35 *
  36 * Only ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe() and ieee80211_rx_irqsafe() can be
  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
  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
  44 *       use the non-IRQ-safe functions!
  45 */

  47/**
  48 * DOC: Warning
  49 *
  50 * If you're reading this document and not the header file itself, it will
  51 * be incomplete because not all documentation has been converted yet.
  52 */
  53
  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.
  73 */

  75/**
  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.
  85 *
  86 * All work performed on the mac80211 workqueue must not acquire the RTNL lock.

 208 * enum mac80211_tx_control_flags - flags to describe transmission information/status
 209 *
 210 * These flags are used with the @flags member of &ieee80211_tx_info.
 211 *
 212 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS: require TX status callback for this frame.
 213 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ: The driver has to assign a sequence
 214 *      number to this frame, taking care of not overwriting the fragment
 215 *      number and increasing the sequence number only when the
 216 *      IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT flag is set. mac80211 will properly
 217 *      assign sequence numbers to QoS-data frames but cannot do so correctly
 218 *      for non-QoS-data and management frames because beacons need them from
 219 *      that counter as well and mac80211 cannot guarantee proper sequencing.
 220 *      If this flag is set, the driver should instruct the hardware to
 221 *      assign a sequence number to the frame or assign one itself. Cf. IEEE
 222 *      802.11-2007 7.1.3.4.1 paragraph 3. This flag will always be set for
 223 *      beacons and always be clear for frames without a sequence number field.
 224 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK: tell the low level not to wait for an ack
 225 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT: clear powersave filter for destination
 226 *      station
 227 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_FIRST_FRAGMENT: this is a first fragment of the frame
 228 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_SEND_AFTER_DTIM: send this frame after DTIM beacon
 229 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU: this frame should be sent as part of an A-MPDU
 230 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_INJECTED: Frame was injected, internal to mac80211.
 231 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_TX_FILTERED: The frame was not transmitted
 232 *      because the destination STA was in powersave mode. Note that to
 233 *      avoid race conditions, the filter must be set by the hardware or
 234 *      firmware upon receiving a frame that indicates that the station
 235 *      went to sleep (must be done on device to filter frames already on
 236 *      the queue) and may only be unset after mac80211 gives the OK for
 237 *      that by setting the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT (see above),
 238 *      since only then is it guaranteed that no more frames are in the
 239 *      hardware queue.
 240 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK: Frame was acknowledged
 241 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU: The frame was aggregated, so status
 242 *      is for the whole aggregation.
 243 * @IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU_NO_BACK: no block ack was returned,
 244 *      so consider using block ack request (BAR).
 245 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_RATE_CTRL_PROBE: internal to mac80211, can be
 246 *      set by rate control algorithms to indicate probe rate, will
 247 *      be cleared for fragmented frames (except on the last fragment)
 248 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NEED_TXPROCESSING: completely internal to mac80211,
 249 *      used to indicate that a pending frame requires TX processing before
 250 *      it can be sent out.
 251 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRIED: completely internal to mac80211,
 252 *      used to indicate that a frame was already retried due to PS
 253 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT: completely internal to mac80211,
 254 *      used to indicate frame should not be encrypted
 255 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_PSPOLL_RESPONSE: (internal?)
 256 *      This frame is a response to a PS-poll frame and should be sent
 257 *      although the station is in powersave mode.
 258 * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES: More frames will be passed to the
 259 *      transmit function after the current frame, this can be used
 260 *      by drivers to kick the DMA queue only if unset or when the
 261 *      queue gets full.
 262 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RETRANSMISSION: This frame is being retransmitted
 263 *      after TX status because the destination was asleep, it must not
 264 *      be modified again (no seqno assignment, crypto, etc.)
 265 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_HAS_RADIOTAP: This frame was injected and still
 266 *      has a radiotap header at skb->data.
 267 * @IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NL80211_FRAME_TX: Frame was requested through nl80211

1106 * DOC: Hardware crypto acceleration
1107 *
1108 * mac80211 is capable of taking advantage of many hardware
1109 * acceleration designs for encryption and decryption operations.
1110 *
1111 * The set_key() callback in the &struct ieee80211_ops for a given
1112 * device is called to enable hardware acceleration of encryption and
1113 * decryption. The callback takes a @sta parameter that will be NULL
1114 * for default keys or keys used for transmission only, or point to
1115 * the station information for the peer for individual keys.
1116 * Multiple transmission keys with the same key index may be used when
1117 * VLANs are configured for an access point.
1118 *
1119 * When transmitting, the TX control data will use the @hw_key_idx
1120 * selected by the driver by modifying the &struct ieee80211_key_conf
1121 * pointed to by the @key parameter to the set_key() function.
1122 *
1123 * The set_key() call for the %SET_KEY command should return 0 if
1124 * the key is now in use, -%EOPNOTSUPP or -%ENOSPC if it couldn't be
1125 * added; if you return 0 then hw_key_idx must be assigned to the
1126 * hardware key index, you are free to use the full u8 range.
1127 *
1128 * When the cmd is %DISABLE_KEY then it must succeed.
1129 *
1130 * Note that it is permissible to not decrypt a frame even if a key
1131 * for it has been uploaded to hardware, the stack will not make any
1132 * decision based on whether a key has been uploaded or not but rather
1133 * based on the receive flags.
1134 *
1135 * The &struct ieee80211_key_conf structure pointed to by the @key
1136 * parameter is guaranteed to be valid until another call to set_key()
1137 * removes it, but it can only be used as a cookie to differentiate
1138 * keys.
1139 *
1140 * In TKIP some HW need to be provided a phase 1 key, for RX decryption
1141 * acceleration (i.e. iwlwifi). Those drivers should provide update_tkip_key
1142 * handler.
1143 * The update_tkip_key() call updates the driver with the new phase 1 key.
1144 * This happens everytime the iv16 wraps around (every 65536 packets). The
1145 * set_key() call will happen only once for each key (unless the AP did
1146 * rekeying), it will not include a valid phase 1 key. The valid phase 1 key is
1147 * provided by update_tkip_key only. The trigger that makes mac80211 call this
1148 * handler is software decryption with wrap around of iv16.

1155 *
1156 * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by itself,
1157 * such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS hardware
1158 * flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired powersave mode
1159 * with the %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag depending on the association status.
1160 * The hardware must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary,
1161 * i.e. when entering and leaving powersave mode. The hardware is required
1162 * to look at the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when
1163 * it finds traffic directed to it.
1164 *
1165 * %IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag enabled means that the powersave mode defined in
1166 * IEEE 802.11-2007 section 11.2 is enabled. This is not to be confused
1167 * with hardware wakeup and sleep states. Driver is responsible for waking
1168 * up the hardware before issueing commands to the hardware and putting it
1169 * back to sleep at approriate times.
1170 *
1171 * When PS is enabled, hardware needs to wakeup for beacons and receive the
1172 * buffered multicast/broadcast frames after the beacon. Also it must be
1173 * possible to send frames and receive the acknowledment frame.
1174 *
1175 * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
1176 * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
1177 * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
1178 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
1179 * required to pass up beacons. The hardware is still required to handle
1180 * waking up for multicast traffic; if it cannot the driver must handle that
1181 * as best as it can, mac80211 is too slow to do that.
1182 *
1183 * Dynamic powersave is an extension to normal powersave in which the
1184 * hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending a
1185 * frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed to
1186 * the next wakeup. It's compromise of getting good enough latency when
1187 * there's data traffic and still saving significantly power in idle
1188 * periods.
1189 *
1190 * Dynamic powersave is supported by simply mac80211 enabling and disabling
1191 * PS based on traffic. Driver needs to only set %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
1192 * flag and mac80211 will handle everything automatically. Additionally,
1193 * hardware having support for the dynamic PS feature may set the
1194 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flag to indicate that it can support
1195 * dynamic PS mode itself. The driver needs to look at the
1196 * @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration value and use it that value
1197 * whenever %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. In this case mac80211 will disable
1198 * dynamic PS feature in stack and will just keep %IEEE80211_CONF_PS
1199 * enabled whenever user has enabled powersave.
1200 *
1201 * Driver informs U-APSD client support by enabling
1202 * %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_UAPSD flag. The mode is configured through the
1203 * uapsd paramater in conf_tx() operation. Hardware needs to send the QoS
1204 * Nullfunc frames and stay awake until the service period has ended. To
1205 * utilize U-APSD, dynamic powersave is disabled for voip AC and all frames
1206 * from that AC are transmitted with powersave enabled.
1207 *
1208 * Note: U-APSD client mode is not yet supported with
1209 * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK.

1212/**
1213 * DOC: Beacon filter support
1214 *
1215 * Some hardware have beacon filter support to reduce host cpu wakeups
1216 * which will reduce system power consumption. It usuallly works so that
1217 * the firmware creates a checksum of the beacon but omits all constantly
1218 * changing elements (TSF, TIM etc). Whenever the checksum changes the
1219 * beacon is forwarded to the host, otherwise it will be just dropped. That
1220 * way the host will only receive beacons where some relevant information
1221 * (for example ERP protection or WMM settings) have changed.
1222 *
1223 * Beacon filter support is advertised with the %IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTER
1224 * hardware capability. The driver needs to enable beacon filter support
1225 * whenever power save is enabled, that is %IEEE80211_CONF_PS is set. When
1226 * power save is enabled, the stack will not check for beacon loss and the
1227 * driver needs to notify about loss of beacons with ieee80211_beacon_loss().
1228 *
1229 * The time (or number of beacons missed) until the firmware notifies the
1230 * driver of a beacon loss event (which in turn causes the driver to call
1231 * ieee80211_beacon_loss()) should be configurable and will be controlled
1232 * by mac80211 and the roaming algorithm in the future.
1233 *
1234 * Since there may be constantly changing information elements that nothing
1235 * in the software stack cares about, we will, in the future, have mac80211
1236 * tell the driver which information elements are interesting in the sense
1237 * that we want to see changes in them. This will include
1238 *  - a list of information element IDs
1239 *  - a list of OUIs for the vendor information element
1240 *
1241 * Ideally, the hardware would filter out any beacons without changes in the
1242 * requested elements, but if it cannot support that it may, at the expense
1243 * of some efficiency, filter out only a subset. For example, if the device
1244 * doesn't support checking for OUIs it should pass up all changes in all
1245 * vendor information elements.
1246 *
1247 * Note that change, for the sake of simplification, also includes information
1248 * elements appearing or disappearing from the beacon.
1249 *
1250 * Some hardware supports an "ignore list" instead, just make sure nothing
1251 * that was requested is on the ignore list, and include commonly changing
1252 * information element IDs in the ignore list, for example 11 (BSS load) and
1253 * the various vendor-assigned IEs with unknown contents (128, 129, 133-136,
1254 * 149, 150, 155, 156, 173, 176, 178, 179, 219); for forward compatibility
1255 * it could also include some currently unused IDs.
1256 *
1257 *
1258 * In addition to these capabilities, hardware should support notifying the
1259 * host of changes in the beacon RSSI. This is relevant to implement roaming
1260 * when no traffic is flowing (when traffic is flowing we see the RSSI of
1261 * the received data packets). This can consist in notifying the host when
1262 * the RSSI changes significantly or when it drops below or rises above
1263 * configurable thresholds. In the future these thresholds will also be
1264 * configured by mac80211 (which gets them from userspace) to implement
1265 * them as the roaming algorithm requires.
1266 *
1267 * If the hardware cannot implement this, the driver should ask it to
1268 * periodically pass beacon frames to the host so that software can do the
1269 * signal strength threshold checking.

1272/**
1273 * DOC: Spatial multiplexing power save
1274 *
1275 * SMPS (Spatial multiplexing power save) is a mechanism to conserve
1276 * power in an 802.11n implementation. For details on the mechanism
1277 * and rationale, please refer to 802.11 (as amended by 802.11n-2009)
1278 * "11.2.3 SM power save".
1279 *
1280 * The mac80211 implementation is capable of sending action frames
1281 * to update the AP about the station's SMPS mode, and will instruct
1282 * the driver to enter the specific mode. It will also announce the
1283 * requested SMPS mode during the association handshake. Hardware
1284 * support for this feature is required, and can be indicated by
1285 * hardware flags.
1286 *
1287 * The default mode will be "automatic", which nl80211/cfg80211
1288 * defines to be dynamic SMPS in (regular) powersave, and SMPS
1289 * turned off otherwise.
1290 *
1291 * To support this feature, the driver must set the appropriate
1292 * hardware support flags, and handle the SMPS flag to the config()
1293 * operation. It will then with this mechanism be instructed to
1294 * enter the requested SMPS mode while associated to an HT AP.

1297/**
1298 * DOC: Frame filtering
1299 *
1300 * mac80211 requires to see many management frames for proper
1301 * operation, and users may want to see many more frames when
1302 * in monitor mode. However, for best CPU usage and power consumption,
1303 * having as few frames as possible percolate through the stack is
1304 * desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much as possible.
1305 *
1306 * To achieve this, mac80211 uses filter flags (see below) to tell
1307 * the driver's configure_filter() function which frames should be
1308 * passed to mac80211 and which should be filtered out.
1309 *
1310 * Before configure_filter() is invoked, the prepare_multicast()
1311 * callback is invoked with the parameters @mc_count and @mc_list
1312 * for the combined multicast address list of all virtual interfaces.
1313 * It's use is optional, and it returns a u64 that is passed to
1314 * configure_filter(). Additionally, configure_filter() has the
1315 * arguments @changed_flags telling which flags were changed and
1316 * @total_flags with the new flag states.
1317 *
1318 * If your device has no multicast address filters your driver will
1319 * need to check both the %FIF_ALLMULTI flag and the @mc_count
1320 * parameter to see whether multicast frames should be accepted
1321 * or dropped.
1322 *
1323 * All unsupported flags in @total_flags must be cleared.
1324 * Hardware does not support a flag if it is incapable of _passing_
1325 * the frame to the stack. Otherwise the driver must ignore
1326 * the flag, but not clear it.
1327 * You must _only_ clear the flag (announce no support for the
1328 * flag to mac80211) if you are not able to pass the packet type
1329 * to the stack (so the hardware always filters it).
1330 * So for example, you should clear @FIF_CONTROL, if your hardware
1331 * always filters control frames. If your hardware always passes
1332 * control frames to the kernel and is incapable of filtering them,
1333 * you do _not_ clear the @FIF_CONTROL flag.
1334 * This rule applies to all other FIF flags as well.

1413 * handle or, in some cases, must handle, for example to configure
1414 * the hardware to a new channel or to transmit a frame.
1415 *
1416 * @tx: Handler that 802.11 module calls for each transmitted frame.
1417 *      skb contains the buffer starting from the IEEE 802.11 header.
1418 *      The low-level driver should send the frame out based on
1419 *      configuration in the TX control data. This handler should,
1420 *      preferably, never fail and stop queues appropriately, more
1421 *      importantly, however, it must never fail for A-MPDU-queues.
1422 *      This function should return NETDEV_TX_OK except in very
1423 *      limited cases.
1424 *      Must be implemented and atomic.
1425 *
1426 * @start: Called before the first netdevice attached to the hardware
1427 *      is enabled. This should turn on the hardware and must turn on
1428 *      frame reception (for possibly enabled monitor interfaces.)
1429 *      Returns negative error codes, these may be seen in userspace,
1430 *      or zero.
1431 *      When the device is started it should not have a MAC address
1432 *      to avoid acknowledging frames before a non-monitor device
1433 *      is added.
1434 *      Must be implemented and can sleep.
1435 *
1436 * @stop: Called after last netdevice attached to the hardware
1437 *      is disabled. This should turn off the hardware (at least
1438 *      it must turn off frame reception.)
1439 *      May be called right after add_interface if that rejects
1440 *      an interface. If you added any work onto the mac80211 workqueue
1441 *      you should ensure to cancel it on this callback.
1442 *      Must be implemented and can sleep.
1443 *
1444 * @add_interface: Called when a netdevice attached to the hardware is
1445 *      enabled. Because it is not called for monitor mode devices, @start
1446 *      and @stop must be implemented.
1447 *      The driver should perform any initialization it needs before
1448 *      the device can be enabled. The initial configuration for the
1449 *      interface is given in the conf parameter.
1450 *      The callback may refuse to add an interface by returning a
1451 *      negative error code (which will be seen in userspace.)
1452 *      Must be implemented and can sleep.
1453 *
1454 * @remove_interface: Notifies a driver that an interface is going down.
1455 *      The @stop callback is called after this if it is the last interface
1456 *      and no monitor interfaces are present.
1457 *      When all interfaces are removed, the MAC address in the hardware
1458 *      must be cleared so the device no longer acknowledges packets,
1459 *      the mac_addr member of the conf structure is, however, set to the
1460 *      MAC address of the device going away.
1461 *      Hence, this callback must be implemented. It can sleep.
1462 *
1463 * @config: Handler for configuration requests. IEEE 802.11 code calls this
1464 *      function to change hardware configuration, e.g., channel.
1465 *      This function should never fail but returns a negative error code
1466 *      if it does. The callback can sleep.
1467 *
1468 * @bss_info_changed: Handler for configuration requests related to BSS
1469 *      parameters that may vary during BSS's lifespan, and may affect low
1470 *      level driver (e.g. assoc/disassoc status, erp parameters).
1471 *      This function should not be used if no BSS has been set, unless
1472 *      for association indication. The @changed parameter indicates which
1473 *      of the bss parameters has changed when a call is made. The callback
1474 *      can sleep.
1475 *
1476 * @prepare_multicast: Prepare for multicast filter configuration.

1485 *      must be set or cleared for a given STA. Must be atomic.
1486 *
1487 * @set_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
1488 *      This callback is only called between add_interface and
1489 *      remove_interface calls, i.e. while the given virtual interface
1490 *      is enabled.
1491 *      Returns a negative error code if the key can't be added.

1493 *
1494 * @update_tkip_key: See the section "Hardware crypto acceleration"
1495 *      This callback will be called in the context of Rx. Called for drivers
1496 *      which set IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_TKIP_REQ_RX_P1_KEY.
1497 *      The callback must be atomic.
1498 *
1499 * @hw_scan: Ask the hardware to service the scan request, no need to start
1500 *      the scan state machine in stack. The scan must honour the channel
1501 *      configuration done by the regulatory agent in the wiphy's
1502 *      registered bands. The hardware (or the driver) needs to make sure
1503 *      that power save is disabled.
1504 *      The @req ie/ie_len members are rewritten by mac80211 to contain the
1505 *      entire IEs after the SSID, so that drivers need not look at these
1506 *      at all but just send them after the SSID -- mac80211 includes the
1507 *      (extended) supported rates and HT information (where applicable).
1508 *      When the scan finishes, ieee80211_scan_completed() must be called;
1509 *      note that it also must be called when the scan cannot finish due to
1510 *      any error unless this callback returned a negative error code.
1511 *      The callback can sleep.
1512 *
1513 * @sw_scan_start: Notifier function that is called just before a software scan
1514 *      is started. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need this notification.
1515 *      The callback can sleep.
1516 *
1517 * @sw_scan_complete: Notifier function that is called just after a
1518 *      software scan finished. Can be NULL, if the driver doesn't need
1519 *      this notification.
1520 *      The callback can sleep.
1521 *
1522 * @get_stats: Return low-level statistics.
1523 *      Returns zero if statistics are available.
1524 *      The callback can sleep.
1525 *
1526 * @get_tkip_seq: If your device implements TKIP encryption in hardware this
1527 *      callback should be provided to read the TKIP transmit IVs (both IV32
1528 *      and IV16) for the given key from hardware.
1529 *      The callback must be atomic.
1530 *
1531 * @set_rts_threshold: Configuration of RTS threshold (if device needs it)
1532 *      The callback can sleep.
1533 *
1534 * @sta_add: Notifies low level driver about addition of an associated station,
1535 *      AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
1536 *
1537 * @sta_remove: Notifies low level driver about removal of an associated
1538 *      station, AP, IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. This callback can sleep.
1539 *
1540 * @sta_notify: Notifies low level driver about power state transition of an
1541 *      associated station, AP,  IBSS/WDS/mesh peer etc. Must be atomic.
1542 *
1543 * @conf_tx: Configure TX queue parameters (EDCF (aifs, cw_min, cw_max),
1544 *      bursting) for a hardware TX queue.
1545 *      Returns a negative error code on failure.
1546 *      The callback can sleep.
1547 *
1548 * @get_tsf: Get the current TSF timer value from firmware/hardware. Currently,
1549 *      this is only used for IBSS mode BSSID merging and debugging. Is not a

1558 * @reset_tsf: Reset the TSF timer and allow firmware/hardware to synchronize
1559 *      with other STAs in the IBSS. This is only used in IBSS mode. This
1560 *      function is optional if the firmware/hardware takes full care of
1561 *      TSF synchronization.
1562 *      The callback can sleep.
1563 *
1564 * @tx_last_beacon: Determine whether the last IBSS beacon was sent by us.
1565 *      This is needed only for IBSS mode and the result of this function is
1566 *      used to determine whether to reply to Probe Requests.
1567 *      Returns non-zero if this device sent the last beacon.
1568 *      The callback can sleep.
1569 *
1570 * @ampdu_action: Perform a certain A-MPDU action
1571 *      The RA/TID combination determines the destination and TID we want
1572 *      the ampdu action to be performed for. The action is defined through
1573 *      ieee80211_ampdu_mlme_action. Starting sequence number (@ssn)
1574 *      is the first frame we expect to perform the action on. Notice
1575 *      that TX/RX_STOP can pass NULL for this parameter.
1576 *      Returns a negative error code on failure.
1577 *      The callback must be atomic.
1578 *
1579 * @rfkill_poll: Poll rfkill hardware state. If you need this, you also
1580 *      need to set wiphy->rfkill_poll to %true before registration,
1581 *      and need to call wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state() in the callback.
1582 *      The callback can sleep.
1583 *
1584 * @set_coverage_class: Set slot time for given coverage class as specified
1585 *      in IEEE 802.11-2007 section 17.3.8.6 and modify ACK timeout
1586 *      accordingly. This callback is not required and may sleep.
1587 *
1588 * @testmode_cmd: Implement a cfg80211 test mode command.
1589 *      The callback can sleep.
1590 *
1591 * @flush: Flush all pending frames from the hardware queue, making sure
1592 *      that the hardware queues are empty. If the parameter @drop is set
1593 *      to %true, pending frames may be dropped. The callback can sleep.
