You must fill in the perm_addr and dev members of this structure using SET_IEEE80211_DEV and SET_IEEE80211_PERM_ADDR. Additionally, all supported bands (with channels, bitrates) are registered here. rate_control_algorithm rate control algorithm for this hardware. If unset (NULL), the default algorithm will be used. Must be set before calling ieee80211_register_hw. priv pointer to private area that was allocated for driver use along with this structure. flags hardware flags, see enum ieee80211_hw_flags. extra_tx_headroom headroom to reserve in each transmit skb for use by the driver (e.g. for transmit headers.) channel_change_time time (in microseconds) it takes to change channels. vif_data_size size (in bytes) of the drv_priv data area within struct ieee80211_vif. sta_data_size size (in bytes) of the drv_priv data area within struct ieee80211_sta. queues number of available hardware transmit queues for data packets. WMM/QoS requires at least four, these queues need to have configurable access parameters. max_listen_interval max listen interval in units of beacon interval that HW supports max_signal Maximum value for signal (rssi) in RX information, used only when IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC or IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB max_rates maximum number of alternate rate retry stages max_rate_tries maximum number of tries for each stageDESCRIPTIONThis structure contains the configuration and hardware information for an 802.11 PHY.AUTHORJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Author.COPYRIGHTKernel Hackers Manual 2.6.
