CONSTANTS

WIPHY_FLAG_NETNS_OK

if not set, do not allow changing the netns of this wiphy at all

WIPHY_FLAG_PS_ON_BY_DEFAULT

if set to true, powersave will be enabled by default -- this flag will be set depending on the kernel's default on wiphy_new, but can be changed by the driver if it has a good reason to override the default

WIPHY_FLAG_4ADDR_AP

supports 4addr mode even on AP (with a single station on a VLAN interface)

WIPHY_FLAG_4ADDR_STATION

supports 4addr mode even as a station

WIPHY_FLAG_CONTROL_PORT_PROTOCOL

This device supports setting the control port protocol ethertype. The device also honours the control_port_no_encrypt flag.

WIPHY_FLAG_IBSS_RSN

The device supports IBSS RSN.

WIPHY_FLAG_MESH_AUTH

The device supports mesh authentication by routing auth frames to userspace. See NL80211_MESH_SETUP_USERSPACE_AUTH.

WIPHY_FLAG_SUPPORTS_SCHED_SCAN

The device supports scheduled scans.

WIPHY_FLAG_SUPPORTS_FW_ROAM

The device supports roaming feature in the firmware.

WIPHY_FLAG_AP_UAPSD

The device supports uapsd on AP.

WIPHY_FLAG_SUPPORTS_TDLS

The device supports TDLS (802.11z) operation.

WIPHY_FLAG_TDLS_EXTERNAL_SETUP

The device does not handle TDLS (802.11z) link setup/discovery operations internally. Setup, discovery and teardown packets should be sent through the NL80211_CMD_TDLS_MGMT command. When this flag is not set, NL80211_CMD_TDLS_OPER should be used for asking the driver/firmware to perform a TDLS operation.

WIPHY_FLAG_HAVE_AP_SME

device integrates AP SME

WIPHY_FLAG_REPORTS_OBSS

the device will report beacons from other BSSes when there are virtual interfaces in AP mode by calling cfg80211_report_obss_beacon.

WIPHY_FLAG_AP_PROBE_RESP_OFFLOAD

When operating as an AP, the device responds to probe-requests in hardware.

WIPHY_FLAG_OFFCHAN_TX

Device supports direct off-channel TX.

WIPHY_FLAG_HAS_REMAIN_ON_CHANNEL

Device supports remain-on-channel call.

WIPHY_FLAG_SUPPORTS_5_10_MHZ

Device supports 5 MHz and 10 MHz channels.

WIPHY_FLAG_HAS_CHANNEL_SWITCH

Device supports channel switch in beaconing mode (AP, IBSS, Mesh, ...).
