STRUCT 
IEEE80211_CON(9) The basic mac80211 driver inte STRUCT IEEE80211_CON(9) NAME
struct_ieee80211_conf - configuration of the device SYNOPSIS
struct ieee80211_conf { u32 flags; int power_level; int dynamic_ps_timeout; int max_sleep_period; u16 listen_interval; u8 ps_dtim_period; u8 long_frame_max_tx_count; u8 short_frame_max_tx_count; struct cfg80211_chan_def chandef; bool radar_enabled; enum ieee80211_smps_mode smps_mode; }; MEMBERS
flags configuration flags defined above power_level requested transmit power (in dBm), backward compatibility value only that is set to the minimum of all interfaces dynamic_ps_timeout The dynamic powersave timeout (in ms), see the powersave documentation below. This variable is valid only when the CONF_PS flag is set. max_sleep_period the maximum number of beacon intervals to sleep for before checking the beacon for a TIM bit (managed mode only); this value will be only achievable between DTIM frames, the hardware needs to check for the multicast traffic bit in DTIM beacons. This variable is valid only when the CONF_PS flag is set. listen_interval listen interval in units of beacon interval ps_dtim_period The DTIM period of the AP we're connected to, for use in power saving. Power saving will not be enabled until a beacon has been received and the DTIM period is known. long_frame_max_tx_count Maximum number of transmissions for a "long" frame (a frame not RTS protected), called "dot11LongRetryLimit" in 802.11, but actually means the number of transmissions not the number of retries short_frame_max_tx_count Maximum number of transmissions for a "short" frame, called "dot11ShortRetryLimit" in 802.11, but actually means the number of transmissions not the number of retries chandef the channel definition to tune to radar_enabled whether radar detection is enabled smps_mode spatial multiplexing powersave mode; note that IEEE80211_SMPS_STATIC is used when the device is not configured for an HT channel. Note that this is only valid if channel contexts are not used, otherwise each channel context has the number of chains listed. DESCRIPTION
This struct indicates how the driver shall configure the hardware. AUTHOR

STRUCT 
CFG80211_BSS(9) Scanning and BSS list handling STRUCT CFG80211_BSS(9) NAME
struct_cfg80211_bss - BSS description SYNOPSIS
struct cfg80211_bss { struct ieee80211_channel * channel; const struct cfg80211_bss_ies __rcu * ies; const struct cfg80211_bss_ies __rcu * beacon_ies; const struct cfg80211_bss_ies __rcu * proberesp_ies; struct cfg80211_bss * hidden_beacon_bss; s32 signal; u16 beacon_interval; u16 capability; u8 bssid[ETH_ALEN]; u8 priv[0]; }; MEMBERS
channel channel this BSS is on ies the information elements (Note that there is no guarantee that these are well-formed!); this is a pointer to either the beacon_ies or proberesp_ies depending on whether Probe Response frame has been received. It is always non-NULL. beacon_ies the information elements from the last Beacon frame (implementation note: if hidden_beacon_bss is set this struct doesn't own the beacon_ies, but they're just pointers to the ones from the hidden_beacon_bss struct) proberesp_ies the information elements from the last Probe Response frame hidden_beacon_bss in case this BSS struct represents a probe response from a BSS that hides the SSID in its beacon, this points to the BSS struct that holds the beacon data. beacon_ies is still valid, of course, and points to the same data as hidden_beacon_bss->beacon_ies in that case. signal signal strength value (type depends on the wiphy's signal_type) beacon_interval the beacon interval as from the frame capability the capability field in host byte order bssid[ETH_ALEN] BSSID of the BSS priv[0] private area for driver use, has at least wiphy->bss_priv_size bytes DESCRIPTION
This structure describes a BSS (which may also be a mesh network) for use in scan results and similar. AUTHOR
