Each bitmap is 32 bit long, each bit\nrepresenting one antenna, starting with antenna 1 at the first bit. If an\nantenna bit is set, this means the driver is allowed to use this antenna for RX\nor TX respectively; if the bit is not set the hardware is not allowed to use\nthis antenna.\n\nUsing bitmaps has the benefit of allowing for a flexible configuration\ninterface which can support many different configurations and which can be used\nfor 802.11n as well as non-802.11n devices. Instead of relying on some hardware\nspecific assumptions, drivers can use this information to know which antennas\nare actually attached to the system and derive their capabilities based on\nthat.\n\n802.11n devices should enable or disable chains, based on which antennas are\npresent (If all antennas belonging to a particular chain are disabled, the\nentire chain should be disabled). HT capabilities (like STBC, TX Beamforming,\nAntenna selection) should be calculated based on the available chains after\napplying the antenna masks. Should a 802.11n device have diversity antennas\nattached to one of their chains, diversity can be enabled or disabled based on\nthe antenna information.\n\nNon-802.11n drivers can use the antenna masks to select RX and TX antennas and\nto enable or disable antenna diversity.\n\nWhile covering chainmasks for 802.11n and the standard \"legacy\" modes \"fixed\nantenna 1\", \"fixed antenna 2\" and \"diversity\" this API also allows more rare,\nbut useful configurations as follows:\n\n1) Send on antenna 1, receive on antenna 2 (or vice versa). This can be used to\nhave a low gain antenna for TX in order to keep within the regulatory\nconstraints and a high gain antenna for RX in order to receive weaker signals\n(\"speak softly, but listen harder\"). This can be useful for building long-shot\noutdoor links. Another usage of this setup is having a low-noise pre-amplifier\non antenna 1 and a power amplifier on the other antenna. This way transmit\nnoise is mostly kept out of the low noise receive channel.\n(This would be bitmaps: tx 1 rx 2).\n\n2) Another similar setup is: Use RX diversity on both antennas, but always send\non antenna 1. Again that would allow us to benefit from a higher gain RX\nantenna, while staying within the legal limits.\n(This would be: tx 0 rx 3).\n\n3) And finally there can be special experimental setups in research and\ndevelopment even with pre 802.11n hardware where more than 2 antennas are\navailable. It\u0027s good to keep the API simple, yet flexible.\n\nSigned-off-by: Bruno Randolf \u003cbr1@einfach.org\u003e\n\n--\nv7:\tMade bitmasks 32 bit wide and rebased to latest wireless-testing.\nSigned-off-by: John W.

There\u0027s one userland API\nchange and one API addition. The API change is that\nnow SET_WIPHY must be called with virtual interface\nindex rather than only wiphy index in order to take\neffect for that interface -- luckily all current\nusers (hostapd) do that. For monitor interfaces, the\nold setting is preserved, but monitors are always\nslaved to other devices anyway so no guarantees.\n\nThe second userland API change is the introduction\nof a per virtual interface SET_CHANNEL command, that\nhostapd should use going forward to make it easier\nto understand what\u0027s going on (it can automatically\ndetect a kernel with this command).\n\nOther than mac80211, no existing cfg80211 drivers\nare affected by this change because they only allow\na single virtual interface.\n\nmac80211, however, now needs to be aware that the\nchannel settings are per interface now, and needs\nto disallow (for now) real multi-channel operation,\nwhich is another important part of this patch.\n\nOne of the immediate benefits is that you can now\nstart hostapd to operate on a hardware that already\nhas a connection on another virtual interface, as\nlong as you specify the same channel.\n\nNote that two things are left unhandled (this is an\nimprovement -- not a complete fix):\n\n * different HT/no-HT modes\n\n currently you could start an HT AP and then\n connect to a non-HT network on the same channel\n which would configure the hardware for no HT;\n that can be fixed fairly easily\n\n * CSA\n\n An AP we\u0027re connected to on a virtual interface\n might indicate switching channels, and in that\n case we would follow it, regardless of how many\n other interfaces are operating; this requires\n more effort to fix but is pretty rare after all\n\nSigned-off-by: Johannes Berg \u003cjohannes@sipsolutions.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: John W.

And because we\nneed to support nl80211 interface a long time, practically forever, adding\nnow parameters to nl80211 might create maintenance problems later on.\n\nThird issue are the users. Power save parameters are mostly used for\ndebugging, so debugfs is better, more flexible, interface for this.\nFor example, wpa_supplicant currently doesn\u0027t configure anything related\nto power save mode. It\u0027s better to strive that kernel can automatically\noptimise the power save parameters, like with help of pm qos network\nand other traffic parameters.\n\nLater on, when we have better understanding of power save, we can extend\nthis command with more features, if there\u0027s a need for that.\n\nSigned-off-by: Kalle Valo \u003ckalle.valo@nokia.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: John W.
