* to get a list of all present wiphys.
* @NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY: set wiphy parameters, needs %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY or
* %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX; can be used to set %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_NAME,
- * %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_TXQ_PARAMS, %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ, and/or
- * %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_CHANNEL_TYPE.
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_TXQ_PARAMS, %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ,
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_CHANNEL_TYPE, %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RETRY_SHORT,
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RETRY_LONG, %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FRAG_THRESHOLD,
+ * and/or %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RTS_THRESHOLD.
* @NL80211_CMD_NEW_WIPHY: Newly created wiphy, response to get request
* or rename notification. Has attributes %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY and
* %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_NAME.
* %NL80211_ATTR_IE. If the command succeeds, the requested data will be
* added to all specified management frames generated by
* kernel/firmware/driver.
+ * Note: This command has been removed and it is only reserved at this
+ * point to avoid re-using existing command number. The functionality this
+ * command was planned for has been provided with cleaner design with the
+ * option to specify additional IEs in NL80211_CMD_TRIGGER_SCAN,
+ * NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE, NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE,
+ * NL80211_CMD_DEAUTHENTICATE, and NL80211_CMD_DISASSOCIATE.
*
* @NL80211_CMD_GET_SCAN: get scan results
* @NL80211_CMD_TRIGGER_SCAN: trigger a new scan with the given parameters
* set (%NL80211_ATTR_REG_TYPE), if the type of regulatory domain is
* %NL80211_REG_TYPE_COUNTRY the alpha2 to which we have moved on
* to (%NL80211_ATTR_REG_ALPHA2).
+ * @NL80211_CMD_REG_BEACON_HINT: indicates to userspace that an AP beacon
+ * has been found while world roaming thus enabling active scan or
+ * any mode of operation that initiates TX (beacons) on a channel
+ * where we would not have been able to do either before. As an example
+ * if you are world roaming (regulatory domain set to world or if your
+ * driver is using a custom world roaming regulatory domain) and while
+ * doing a passive scan on the 5 GHz band you find an AP there (if not
+ * on a DFS channel) you will now be able to actively scan for that AP
+ * or use AP mode on your card on that same channel. Note that this will
+ * never be used for channels 1-11 on the 2 GHz band as they are always
+ * enabled world wide. This beacon hint is only sent if your device had
+ * either disabled active scanning or beaconing on a channel. We send to
+ * userspace the wiphy on which we removed a restriction from
+ * (%NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY) and the channel on which this occurred
+ * before (%NL80211_ATTR_FREQ_BEFORE) and after (%NL80211_ATTR_FREQ_AFTER)
+ * the beacon hint was processed.
*
* @NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE: authentication request and notification.
* This command is used both as a command (request to authenticate) and
* frame, i.e., it was for the local STA and was received in correct
* state. This is similar to MLME-AUTHENTICATE.confirm primitive in the
* MLME SAP interface (kernel providing MLME, userspace SME). The
- * included NL80211_ATTR_FRAME attribute contains the management frame
- * (including both the header and frame body, but not FCS).
+ * included %NL80211_ATTR_FRAME attribute contains the management frame
+ * (including both the header and frame body, but not FCS). This event is
+ * also used to indicate if the authentication attempt timed out. In that
+ * case the %NL80211_ATTR_FRAME attribute is replaced with a
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_TIMED_OUT flag (and %NL80211_ATTR_MAC to indicate which
+ * pending authentication timed out).
* @NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE: association request and notification; like
* NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE but for Association and Reassociation
* (similar to MLME-ASSOCIATE.request, MLME-REASSOCIATE.request,
* NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE but for Disassociation frames (similar to
* MLME-DISASSOCIATE.request and MLME-DISASSOCIATE.indication primitives).
*
+ * @NL80211_CMD_MICHAEL_MIC_FAILURE: notification of a locally detected Michael
+ * MIC (part of TKIP) failure; sent on the "mlme" multicast group; the
+ * event includes %NL80211_ATTR_MAC to describe the source MAC address of
+ * the frame with invalid MIC, %NL80211_ATTR_KEY_TYPE to show the key
+ * type, %NL80211_ATTR_KEY_IDX to indicate the key identifier, and
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_KEY_SEQ to indicate the TSC value of the frame; this
+ * event matches with MLME-MICHAELMICFAILURE.indication() primitive
+ *
+ * @NL80211_CMD_JOIN_IBSS: Join a new IBSS -- given at least an SSID and a
+ * FREQ attribute (for the initial frequency if no peer can be found)
+ * and optionally a MAC (as BSSID) and FREQ_FIXED attribute if those
+ * should be fixed rather than automatically determined. Can only be
+ * executed on a network interface that is UP, and fixed BSSID/FREQ
+ * may be rejected.
+ * @NL80211_CMD_LEAVE_IBSS: Leave the IBSS -- no special arguments, the IBSS is
+ * determined by the network interface.
+ *
* @NL80211_CMD_MAX: highest used command number
* @__NL80211_CMD_AFTER_LAST: internal use
