31 * DOC: Station handling
33 * Stations are added per interface, but a special case exists with VLAN
34 * interfaces. When a station is bound to an AP interface, it may be moved
35 * into a VLAN identified by a VLAN interface index (%NL80211_ATTR_STA_VLAN).
36 * The station is still assumed to belong to the AP interface it was added
39 * TODO: need more info?
43 * DOC: Frame transmission/registration support
45 * Frame transmission and registration support exists to allow userspace
46 * management entities such as wpa_supplicant react to management frames
47 * that are not being handled by the kernel. This includes, for example,
48 * certain classes of action frames that cannot be handled in the kernel
49 * for various reasons.
51 * Frame registration is done on a per-interface basis and registrations
52 * cannot be removed other than by closing the socket. It is possible to
53 * specify a registration filter to register, for example, only for a
54 * certain type of action frame. In particular with action frames, those
55 * that userspace registers for will not be returned as unhandled by the
56 * driver, so that the registered application has to take responsibility
59 * The type of frame that can be registered for is also dependent on the
60 * driver and interface type. The frame types are advertised in wiphy
61 * attributes so applications know what to expect.
63 * NOTE: When an interface changes type while registrations are active,
64 * these registrations are ignored until the interface type is
65 * changed again. This means that changing the interface type can
66 * lead to a situation that couldn't otherwise be produced, but
67 * any such registrations will be dormant in the sense that they
68 * will not be serviced, i.e. they will not receive any frames.
70 * Frame transmission allows userspace to send for example the required
71 * responses to action frames. It is subject to some sanity checking,
72 * but many frames can be transmitted. When a frame was transmitted, its
73 * status is indicated to the sending socket.
75 * For more technical details, see the corresponding command descriptions
80 * DOC: Virtual interface / concurrency capabilities
82 * Some devices are able to operate with virtual MACs, they can have
83 * more than one virtual interface. The capability handling for this
84 * is a bit complex though, as there may be a number of restrictions
85 * on the types of concurrency that are supported.
87 * To start with, each device supports the interface types listed in
88 * the %NL80211_ATTR_SUPPORTED_IFTYPES attribute, but by listing the
89 * types there no concurrency is implied.
91 * Once concurrency is desired, more attributes must be observed:
92 * To start with, since some interface types are purely managed in
93 * software, like the AP-VLAN type in mac80211 for example, there's
94 * an additional list of these, they can be added at any time and
95 * are only restricted by some semantic restrictions (e.g. AP-VLAN
96 * cannot be added without a corresponding AP interface). This list
97 * is exported in the %NL80211_ATTR_SOFTWARE_IFTYPES attribute.
99 * Further, the list of supported combinations is exported. This is
100 * in the %NL80211_ATTR_INTERFACE_COMBINATIONS attribute. Basically,
101 * it exports a list of "groups", and at any point in time the
102 * interfaces that are currently active must fall into any one of
103 * the advertised groups. Within each group, there are restrictions
104 * on the number of interfaces of different types that are supported
105 * and also the number of different channels, along with potentially
106 * some other restrictions. See &enum nl80211_if_combination_attrs.
108 * All together, these attributes define the concurrency of virtual
109 * interfaces that a given device supports.

196 * @NL80211_CMD_GET_REG: ask the wireless core to send us its currently set
198 * @NL80211_CMD_SET_REG: Set current regulatory domain. CRDA sends this command
199 * after being queried by the kernel. CRDA replies by sending a regulatory
200 * domain structure which consists of %NL80211_ATTR_REG_ALPHA set to our
201 * current alpha2 if it found a match. It also provides
202 * NL80211_ATTR_REG_RULE_FLAGS, and a set of regulatory rules. Each
203 * regulatory rule is a nested set of attributes given by
204 * %NL80211_ATTR_REG_RULE_FREQ_[START|END] and
205 * %NL80211_ATTR_FREQ_RANGE_MAX_BW with an attached power rule given by
206 * %NL80211_ATTR_REG_RULE_POWER_MAX_ANT_GAIN and
207 * %NL80211_ATTR_REG_RULE_POWER_MAX_EIRP.
208 * @NL80211_CMD_REQ_SET_REG: ask the wireless core to set the regulatory domain
209 * to the specified ISO/IEC 3166-1 alpha2 country code. The core will
210 * store this as a valid request and then query userspace for it.
212 * @NL80211_CMD_GET_MESH_CONFIG: Get mesh networking properties for the
213 * interface identified by %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX
215 * @NL80211_CMD_SET_MESH_CONFIG: Set mesh networking properties for the
216 * interface identified by %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX
218 * @NL80211_CMD_SET_MGMT_EXTRA_IE: Set extra IEs for management frames. The
219 * interface is identified with %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX and the management
220 * frame subtype with %NL80211_ATTR_MGMT_SUBTYPE. The extra IE data to be
221 * added to the end of the specified management frame is specified with
222 * %NL80211_ATTR_IE. If the command succeeds, the requested data will be
223 * added to all specified management frames generated by
224 * kernel/firmware/driver.
225 * Note: This command has been removed and it is only reserved at this
226 * point to avoid re-using existing command number. The functionality this
227 * command was planned for has been provided with cleaner design with the
228 * option to specify additional IEs in NL80211_CMD_TRIGGER_SCAN,
229 * NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE, NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE,
230 * NL80211_CMD_DEAUTHENTICATE, and NL80211_CMD_DISASSOCIATE.
232 * @NL80211_CMD_GET_SCAN: get scan results
233 * @NL80211_CMD_TRIGGER_SCAN: trigger a new scan with the given parameters
234 * @NL80211_CMD_NEW_SCAN_RESULTS: scan notification (as a reply to
235 * NL80211_CMD_GET_SCAN and on the "scan" multicast group)
236 * @NL80211_CMD_SCAN_ABORTED: scan was aborted, for unspecified reasons,
237 * partial scan results may be available
239 * @NL80211_CMD_START_SCHED_SCAN: start a scheduled scan at certain
240 * intervals, as specified by %NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_INTERVAL.
241 * Like with normal scans, if SSIDs (%NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_SSIDS)
242 * are passed, they are used in the probe requests. For
243 * broadcast, a broadcast SSID must be passed (ie. an empty
244 * string). If no SSID is passed, no probe requests are sent and
245 * a passive scan is performed. %NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_FREQUENCIES,
246 * if passed, define which channels should be scanned; if not
247 * passed, all channels allowed for the current regulatory domain
248 * are used. Extra IEs can also be passed from the userspace by
249 * using the %NL80211_ATTR_IE attribute.
250 * @NL80211_CMD_STOP_SCHED_SCAN: stop a scheduled scan
251 * @NL80211_CMD_SCHED_SCAN_RESULTS: indicates that there are scheduled scan
253 * @NL80211_CMD_SCHED_SCAN_STOPPED: indicates that the scheduled scan has
254 * stopped. The driver may issue this event at any time during a
255 * scheduled scan. One reason for stopping the scan is if the hardware
256 * does not support starting an association or a normal scan while running
257 * a scheduled scan. This event is also sent when the
258 * %NL80211_CMD_STOP_SCHED_SCAN command is received or when the interface
259 * is brought down while a scheduled scan was running.
261 * @NL80211_CMD_GET_SURVEY: get survey resuls, e.g. channel occupation
263 * @NL80211_CMD_NEW_SURVEY_RESULTS: survey data notification (as a reply to
264 * NL80211_CMD_GET_SURVEY and on the "scan" multicast group)
266 * @NL80211_CMD_REG_CHANGE: indicates to userspace the regulatory domain
267 * has been changed and provides details of the request information
268 * that caused the change such as who initiated the regulatory request
269 * (%NL80211_ATTR_REG_INITIATOR), the wiphy_idx
270 * (%NL80211_ATTR_REG_ALPHA2) on which the request was made from if
271 * the initiator was %NL80211_REGDOM_SET_BY_COUNTRY_IE or
272 * %NL80211_REGDOM_SET_BY_DRIVER, the type of regulatory domain
273 * set (%NL80211_ATTR_REG_TYPE), if the type of regulatory domain is
274 * %NL80211_REG_TYPE_COUNTRY the alpha2 to which we have moved on
275 * to (%NL80211_ATTR_REG_ALPHA2).
276 * @NL80211_CMD_REG_BEACON_HINT: indicates to userspace that an AP beacon
277 * has been found while world roaming thus enabling active scan or
278 * any mode of operation that initiates TX (beacons) on a channel
279 * where we would not have been able to do either before. As an example
280 * if you are world roaming (regulatory domain set to world or if your
281 * driver is using a custom world roaming regulatory domain) and while
282 * doing a passive scan on the 5 GHz band you find an AP there (if not
283 * on a DFS channel) you will now be able to actively scan for that AP
284 * or use AP mode on your card on that same channel. Note that this will
285 * never be used for channels 1-11 on the 2 GHz band as they are always
286 * enabled world wide. This beacon hint is only sent if your device had
287 * either disabled active scanning or beaconing on a channel. We send to
288 * userspace the wiphy on which we removed a restriction from
289 * (%NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY) and the channel on which this occurred
290 * before (%NL80211_ATTR_FREQ_BEFORE) and after (%NL80211_ATTR_FREQ_AFTER)
291 * the beacon hint was processed.
293 * @NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE: authentication request and notification.
294 * This command is used both as a command (request to authenticate) and
295 * as an event on the "mlme" multicast group indicating completion of the
296 * authentication process.
297 * When used as a command, %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX is used to identify the
298 * interface. %NL80211_ATTR_MAC is used to specify PeerSTAAddress (and
299 * BSSID in case of station mode). %NL80211_ATTR_SSID is used to specify
300 * the SSID (mainly for association, but is included in authentication
301 * request, too, to help BSS selection. %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ is used
302 * to specify the frequence of the channel in MHz. %NL80211_ATTR_AUTH_TYPE
303 * is used to specify the authentication type. %NL80211_ATTR_IE is used to
304 * define IEs (VendorSpecificInfo, but also including RSN IE and FT IEs)
305 * to be added to the frame.
306 * When used as an event, this reports reception of an Authentication
307 * frame in station and IBSS modes when the local MLME processed the
308 * frame, i.e., it was for the local STA and was received in correct
309 * state. This is similar to MLME-AUTHENTICATE.confirm primitive in the
310 * MLME SAP interface (kernel providing MLME, userspace SME). The
311 * included %NL80211_ATTR_FRAME attribute contains the management frame
312 * (including both the header and frame body, but not FCS). This event is
313 * also used to indicate if the authentication attempt timed out. In that
314 * case the %NL80211_ATTR_FRAME attribute is replaced with a
315 * %NL80211_ATTR_TIMED_OUT flag (and %NL80211_ATTR_MAC to indicate which
316 * pending authentication timed out).
317 * @NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE: association request and notification; like
318 * NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE but for Association and Reassociation
319 * (similar to MLME-ASSOCIATE.request, MLME-REASSOCIATE.request,
320 * MLME-ASSOCIATE.confirm or MLME-REASSOCIATE.confirm primitives).
321 * @NL80211_CMD_DEAUTHENTICATE: deauthentication request and notification; like
322 * NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE but for Deauthentication frames (similar to
323 * MLME-DEAUTHENTICATION.request and MLME-DEAUTHENTICATE.indication
325 * @NL80211_CMD_DISASSOCIATE: disassociation request and notification; like
326 * NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE but for Disassociation frames (similar to
327 * MLME-DISASSOCIATE.request and MLME-DISASSOCIATE.indication primitives).
329 * @NL80211_CMD_MICHAEL_MIC_FAILURE: notification of a locally detected Michael
330 * MIC (part of TKIP) failure; sent on the "mlme" multicast group; the
331 * event includes %NL80211_ATTR_MAC to describe the source MAC address of
332 * the frame with invalid MIC, %NL80211_ATTR_KEY_TYPE to show the key
333 * type, %NL80211_ATTR_KEY_IDX to indicate the key identifier, and
334 * %NL80211_ATTR_KEY_SEQ to indicate the TSC value of the frame; this
335 * event matches with MLME-MICHAELMICFAILURE.indication() primitive
337 * @NL80211_CMD_JOIN_IBSS: Join a new IBSS -- given at least an SSID and a
338 * FREQ attribute (for the initial frequency if no peer can be found)
339 * and optionally a MAC (as BSSID) and FREQ_FIXED attribute if those
340 * should be fixed rather than automatically determined. Can only be
341 * executed on a network interface that is UP, and fixed BSSID/FREQ
342 * may be rejected. Another optional parameter is the beacon interval,
343 * given in the %NL80211_ATTR_BEACON_INTERVAL attribute, which if not
344 * given defaults to 100 TU (102.4ms).
345 * @NL80211_CMD_LEAVE_IBSS: Leave the IBSS -- no special arguments, the IBSS is
346 * determined by the network interface.
348 * @NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE: testmode command, takes a wiphy (or ifindex) attribute
349 * to identify the device, and the TESTDATA blob attribute to pass through
352 * @NL80211_CMD_CONNECT: connection request and notification; this command
353 * requests to connect to a specified network but without separating
354 * auth and assoc steps. For this, you need to specify the SSID in a
355 * %NL80211_ATTR_SSID attribute, and can optionally specify the association
356 * IEs in %NL80211_ATTR_IE, %NL80211_ATTR_AUTH_TYPE, %NL80211_ATTR_MAC,
357 * %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ, %NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT,
358 * %NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_ETHERTYPE and
359 * %NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_NO_ENCRYPT.
360 * It is also sent as an event, with the BSSID and response IEs when the
361 * connection is established or failed to be established. This can be
362 * determined by the STATUS_CODE attribute.
363 * @NL80211_CMD_ROAM: request that the card roam (currently not implemented),
364 * sent as an event when the card/driver roamed by itself.
365 * @NL80211_CMD_DISCONNECT: drop a given connection; also used to notify
366 * userspace that a connection was dropped by the AP or due to other
367 * reasons, for this the %NL80211_ATTR_DISCONNECTED_BY_AP and
368 * %NL80211_ATTR_REASON_CODE attributes are used.
370 * @NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY_NETNS: Set a wiphy's netns. Note that all devices
371 * associated with this wiphy must be down and will follow.
373 * @NL80211_CMD_REMAIN_ON_CHANNEL: Request to remain awake on the specified
374 * channel for the specified amount of time. This can be used to do
375 * off-channel operations like transmit a Public Action frame and wait for
376 * a response while being associated to an AP on another channel.
377 * %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX is used to specify which interface (and thus
378 * radio) is used. %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ is used to specify the
379 * frequency for the operation and %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_CHANNEL_TYPE may be
380 * optionally used to specify additional channel parameters.
381 * %NL80211_ATTR_DURATION is used to specify the duration in milliseconds
382 * to remain on the channel. This command is also used as an event to
383 * notify when the requested duration starts (it may take a while for the
384 * driver to schedule this time due to other concurrent needs for the
386 * When called, this operation returns a cookie (%NL80211_ATTR_COOKIE)
387 * that will be included with any events pertaining to this request;
388 * the cookie is also used to cancel the request.
389 * @NL80211_CMD_CANCEL_REMAIN_ON_CHANNEL: This command can be used to cancel a
390 * pending remain-on-channel duration if the desired operation has been
391 * completed prior to expiration of the originally requested duration.
392 * %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY or %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX is used to specify the
393 * radio. The %NL80211_ATTR_COOKIE attribute must be given as well to
394 * uniquely identify the request.
395 * This command is also used as an event to notify when a requested
396 * remain-on-channel duration has expired.
398 * @NL80211_CMD_SET_TX_BITRATE_MASK: Set the mask of rates to be used in TX
399 * rate selection. %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX is used to specify the interface
400 * and @NL80211_ATTR_TX_RATES the set of allowed rates.
402 * @NL80211_CMD_REGISTER_FRAME: Register for receiving certain mgmt frames
403 * (via @NL80211_CMD_FRAME) for processing in userspace. This command
404 * requires an interface index, a frame type attribute (optional for
405 * backward compatibility reasons, if not given assumes action frames)
406 * and a match attribute containing the first few bytes of the frame
407 * that should match, e.g. a single byte for only a category match or
408 * four bytes for vendor frames including the OUI. The registration
409 * cannot be dropped, but is removed automatically when the netlink
410 * socket is closed. Multiple registrations can be made.
411 * @NL80211_CMD_REGISTER_ACTION: Alias for @NL80211_CMD_REGISTER_FRAME for
412 * backward compatibility
413 * @NL80211_CMD_FRAME: Management frame TX request and RX notification. This
414 * command is used both as a request to transmit a management frame and
415 * as an event indicating reception of a frame that was not processed in
416 * kernel code, but is for us (i.e., which may need to be processed in a
417 * user space application). %NL80211_ATTR_FRAME is used to specify the
418 * frame contents (including header). %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ (and
419 * optionally %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_CHANNEL_TYPE) is used to indicate on
420 * which channel the frame is to be transmitted or was received. If this
421 * channel is not the current channel (remain-on-channel or the
422 * operational channel) the device will switch to the given channel and
423 * transmit the frame, optionally waiting for a response for the time
424 * specified using %NL80211_ATTR_DURATION. When called, this operation
425 * returns a cookie (%NL80211_ATTR_COOKIE) that will be included with the
426 * TX status event pertaining to the TX request.
427 * @NL80211_CMD_FRAME_WAIT_CANCEL: When an off-channel TX was requested, this
428 * command may be used with the corresponding cookie to cancel the wait
429 * time if it is known that it is no longer necessary.
430 * @NL80211_CMD_ACTION: Alias for @NL80211_CMD_FRAME for backward compatibility.
431 * @NL80211_CMD_FRAME_TX_STATUS: Report TX status of a management frame
432 * transmitted with %NL80211_CMD_FRAME. %NL80211_ATTR_COOKIE identifies
433 * the TX command and %NL80211_ATTR_FRAME includes the contents of the
434 * frame. %NL80211_ATTR_ACK flag is included if the recipient acknowledged
436 * @NL80211_CMD_ACTION_TX_STATUS: Alias for @NL80211_CMD_FRAME_TX_STATUS for
437 * backward compatibility.
438 * @NL80211_CMD_SET_CQM: Connection quality monitor configuration. This command
439 * is used to configure connection quality monitoring notification trigger
441 * @NL80211_CMD_NOTIFY_CQM: Connection quality monitor notification. This
442 * command is used as an event to indicate the that a trigger level was
444 * @NL80211_CMD_SET_CHANNEL: Set the channel (using %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ
445 * and %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_CHANNEL_TYPE) the given interface (identifed
446 * by %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX) shall operate on.
447 * In case multiple channels are supported by the device, the mechanism
448 * with which it switches channels is implementation-defined.
449 * When a monitor interface is given, it can only switch channel while
450 * no other interfaces are operating to avoid disturbing the operation
451 * of any other interfaces, and other interfaces will again take
452 * precedence when they are used.
454 * @NL80211_CMD_SET_WDS_PEER: Set the MAC address of the peer on a WDS interface.
456 * @NL80211_CMD_JOIN_MESH: Join a mesh. The mesh ID must be given, and initial
457 * mesh config parameters may be given.
458 * @NL80211_CMD_LEAVE_MESH: Leave the mesh network -- no special arguments, the
459 * network is determined by the network interface.
461 * @NL80211_CMD_UNPROT_DEAUTHENTICATE: Unprotected deauthentication frame
462 * notification. This event is used to indicate that an unprotected
463 * deauthentication frame was dropped when MFP is in use.
464 * @NL80211_CMD_UNPROT_DISASSOCIATE: Unprotected disassociation frame
465 * notification. This event is used to indicate that an unprotected
466 * disassociation frame was dropped when MFP is in use.
468 * @NL80211_CMD_NEW_PEER_CANDIDATE: Notification on the reception of a
469 * beacon or probe response from a compatible mesh peer. This is only
470 * sent while no station information (sta_info) exists for the new peer
471 * candidate and when @NL80211_MESH_SETUP_USERSPACE_AUTH is set. On
472 * reception of this notification, userspace may decide to create a new
473 * station (@NL80211_CMD_NEW_STATION). To stop this notification from
474 * reoccurring, the userspace authentication daemon may want to create the
475 * new station with the AUTHENTICATED flag unset and maybe change it later
476 * depending on the authentication result.
478 * @NL80211_CMD_GET_WOWLAN: get Wake-on-Wireless-LAN (WoWLAN) settings.
479 * @NL80211_CMD_SET_WOWLAN: set Wake-on-Wireless-LAN (WoWLAN) settings.
480 * Since wireless is more complex than wired ethernet, it supports
481 * various triggers. These triggers can be configured through this
482 * command with the %NL80211_ATTR_WOWLAN_TRIGGERS attribute. For
483 * more background information, see
484 * http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Documentation/WoWLAN.

936 * bitmap the hardware is not allowed to transmit on this antenna.
938 * Each bit represents one antenna, starting with antenna 1 at the first
939 * bit. Depending on which antennas are selected in the bitmap, 802.11n
940 * drivers can derive which chainmasks to use (if all antennas belonging to
941 * a particular chain are disabled this chain should be disabled) and if
942 * a chain has diversity antennas wether diversity should be used or not.
943 * HT capabilities (STBC, TX Beamforming, Antenna selection) can be
944 * derived from the available chains after applying the antenna mask.
945 * Non-802.11n drivers can derive wether to use diversity or not.
946 * Drivers may reject configurations or RX/TX mask combinations they cannot
947 * support by returning -EINVAL.
949 * @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_RX: Bitmap of allowed antennas for receiving.
950 * This can be used to mask out antennas which are not attached or should
951 * not be used for receiving. If an antenna is not selected in this bitmap
952 * the hardware should not be configured to receive on this antenna.
953 * For a more detailed description see @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX.
955 * @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_AVAIL_TX: Bitmap of antennas which are available
956 * for configuration as TX antennas via the above parameters.
958 * @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_AVAIL_RX: Bitmap of antennas which are available
959 * for configuration as RX antennas via the above parameters.
961 * @NL80211_ATTR_MCAST_RATE: Multicast tx rate (in 100 kbps) for IBSS
963 * @NL80211_ATTR_OFFCHANNEL_TX_OK: For management frame TX, the frame may be
964 * transmitted on another channel when the channel given doesn't match
965 * the current channel. If the current channel doesn't match and this
966 * flag isn't set, the frame will be rejected. This is also used as an
967 * nl80211 capability flag.
969 * @NL80211_ATTR_BSS_HTOPMODE: HT operation mode (u16)
971 * @NL80211_ATTR_KEY_DEFAULT_TYPES: A nested attribute containing flags
972 * attributes, specifying what a key should be set as default as.
973 * See &enum nl80211_key_default_types.
975 * @NL80211_ATTR_MESH_SETUP: Optional mesh setup parameters. These cannot be
976 * changed once the mesh is active.
977 * @NL80211_ATTR_MESH_CONFIG: Mesh configuration parameters, a nested attribute
978 * containing attributes from &enum nl80211_meshconf_params.
979 * @NL80211_ATTR_SUPPORT_MESH_AUTH: Currently, this means the underlying driver
980 * allows auth frames in a mesh to be passed to userspace for processing via
981 * the @NL80211_MESH_SETUP_USERSPACE_AUTH flag.
982 * @NL80211_ATTR_STA_PLINK_STATE: The state of a mesh peer link as
983 * defined in &enum nl80211_plink_state. Used when userspace is
984 * driving the peer link management state machine.
985 * @NL80211_MESH_SETUP_USERSPACE_AMPE must be enabled.
987 * @NL80211_ATTR_WOWLAN_SUPPORTED: indicates, as part of the wiphy capabilities,
988 * the supported WoWLAN triggers
989 * @NL80211_ATTR_WOWLAN_TRIGGERS: used by %NL80211_CMD_SET_WOWLAN to
990 * indicate which WoW triggers should be enabled. This is also
991 * used by %NL80211_CMD_GET_WOWLAN to get the currently enabled WoWLAN
994 * @NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_INTERVAL: Interval between scheduled scan
997 * @NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_MATCH: Nested attribute with one or more
998 * sets of attributes to match during scheduled scans. Only BSSs
999 * that match any of the sets will be reported. These are
1000 * pass-thru filter rules.
1001 * For a match to succeed, the BSS must match all attributes of a
1002 * set. Since not every hardware supports matching all types of
1003 * attributes, there is no guarantee that the reported BSSs are
1004 * fully complying with the match sets and userspace needs to be
1005 * able to ignore them by itself.
1006 * Thus, the implementation is somewhat hardware-dependent, but
1007 * this is only an optimization and the userspace application
1008 * needs to handle all the non-filtered results anyway.
1009 * If the match attributes don't make sense when combined with
1010 * the values passed in @NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_SSIDS (eg. if an SSID
1011 * is included in the probe request, but the match attributes
1012 * will never let it go through), -EINVAL may be returned.
1013 * If ommited, no filtering is done.
1015 * @NL80211_ATTR_INTERFACE_COMBINATIONS: Nested attribute listing the supported
1016 * interface combinations. In each nested item, it contains attributes
1017 * defined in &enum nl80211_if_combination_attrs.
1018 * @NL80211_ATTR_SOFTWARE_IFTYPES: Nested attribute (just like
1019 * %NL80211_ATTR_SUPPORTED_IFTYPES) containing the interface types that
1020 * are managed in software: interfaces of these types aren't subject to
1021 * any restrictions in their number or combinations.
1023 * @NL80211_ATTR_MAX: highest attribute number currently defined
1024 * @__NL80211_ATTR_AFTER_LAST: internal use
