MEMBERS

23       flags
24           configuration flags defined above
25
26       power_level
27           requested transmit power (in dBm), backward compatibility value
28           only that is set to the minimum of all interfaces
29
30       dynamic_ps_timeout
31           The dynamic powersave timeout (in ms), see the powersave
32           documentation below. This variable is valid only when the CONF_PS
33           flag is set.
34
35       listen_interval
36           listen interval in units of beacon interval
37
38       ps_dtim_period
39           The DTIM period of the AP we're connected to, for use in power
40           saving. Power saving will not be enabled until a beacon has been
41           received and the DTIM period is known.
42
43       long_frame_max_tx_count
44           Maximum number of transmissions for a “long” frame (a frame not RTS
45           protected), called “dot11LongRetryLimit” in 802.11, but actually
46           means the number of transmissions not the number of retries
47
48       short_frame_max_tx_count
49           Maximum number of transmissions for a “short” frame, called
50           “dot11ShortRetryLimit” in 802.11, but actually means the number of
51           transmissions not the number of retries
52
53       chandef
54           the channel definition to tune to
55
56       radar_enabled
57           whether radar detection is enabled
58
59       smps_mode
60           spatial multiplexing powersave mode; note that
61           IEEE80211_SMPS_STATIC is used when the device is not configured for
62           an HT channel. Note that this is only valid if channel contexts are
63           not used, otherwise each channel context has the number of chains
64           listed.

DESCRIPTION

67       This struct indicates how the driver shall configure the hardware.
