STRUCT IEEE80211_RX_(9) The basic mac80211 driver inte STRUCT IEEE80211_RX_(9)NAME
struct_ieee80211_rx_status - receive status
SYNOPSIS
struct ieee80211_rx_status {
u64 mactime;
enum ieee80211_band band;
int freq;
int signal;
int noise;
int antenna;
int rate_idx;
int flag;
};
MEMBERS
mactime
value in microseconds of the 64-bit Time Synchronization Function (TSF) timer when the first data symbol (MPDU) arrived at the
hardware.
band
the active band when this frame was received
freq
frequency the radio was tuned to when receiving this frame, in MHz
signal
signal strength when receiving this frame, either in dBm, in dB or unspecified depending on the hardware capabilities flags
IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_*
noise
noise when receiving this frame, in dBm.
antenna
antenna used
rate_idx
index of data rate into band's supported rates or MCS index if HT rates are use (RX_FLAG_HT)
flag
RX_FLAG_*
DESCRIPTION
The low-level driver should provide this information (the subset supported by hardware) to the 802.11 code with each received frame, in the
skb's control buffer (cb).

};
MEMBERS
band
band this channel belongs to.
center_freq
center frequency in MHz
hw_value
hardware-specific value for the channel
flags
channel flags from enum ieee80211_channel_flags.
max_antenna_gain
maximum antenna gain in dBi
max_power
maximum transmission power (in dBm)
max_reg_power
maximum regulatory transmission power (in dBm)
beacon_found
helper to regulatory code to indicate when a beacon has been found on this channel. Use regulatory_hint_found_beacon to enable this,
this is useful only on 5 GHz band.
orig_flags
channel flags at registration time, used by regulatory code to support devices with additional restrictions
orig_mag
internal use
orig_mpwr
internal use
dfs_state
current state of this channel. Only relevant if radar is required on this channel.
dfs_state_entered
timestamp (jiffies) when the dfs state was entered.
DESCRIPTION
This structure describes a single channel for use with cfg80211.

Hello everybody,
I have a problem with a program i'm coding, the thing is that i need the program to check quickly if it receives a response, if not, just go ahead.
My program sends the frame successfully, but it keeps waiting for the response until it receives something. That's what i need to... (2 Replies)
Hello,
Everyone knows that with PF_PACKET sockets one can "sniff" a determinated frame from the network device, but just that, see the frame without altering its action on the receiving host. What i want is to "intercept" the incoming frame and pass it through some rules, and if it doesn't pass... (9 Replies)
