IEEE80211_RX_(9) The basic mac80211 driver inte STRUCT IEEE80211_RX_(9) NAME
struct_ieee80211_rx_status - receive status SYNOPSIS
struct ieee80211_rx_status { u64 mactime; enum ieee80211_band band; int freq; int signal; int noise; int antenna; int rate_idx; int flag; }; MEMBERS
mactime value in microseconds of the 64-bit Time Synchronization Function (TSF) timer when the first data symbol (MPDU) arrived at the hardware. band the active band when this frame was received freq frequency the radio was tuned to when receiving this frame, in MHz signal signal strength when receiving this frame, either in dBm, in dB or unspecified depending on the hardware capabilities flags IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_* noise noise when receiving this frame, in dBm. antenna antenna used rate_idx index of data rate into band's supported rates or MCS index if HT rates are use (RX_FLAG_HT) flag RX_FLAG_* DESCRIPTION
The low-level driver should provide this information (the subset supported by hardware) to the 802.11 code with each received frame, in the skb's control buffer (cb). AUTHOR
