24 * Interface definitions for transmit rate control modules for the
25 * Atheros driver.
26 *
27 * A rate control module is responsible for choosing the transmit rate
28 * for each data frame. Management+control frames are always sent at
29 * a fixed rate.
30 *
31 * Only one module may be present at a time; the driver references
32 * rate control interfaces by symbol name. If multiple modules are
33 * to be supported we'll need to switch to a registration-based scheme
34 * as is currently done, for example, for authentication modules.
35 *
36 * An instance of the rate control module is attached to each device
37 * at attach time and detached when the device is destroyed. The module
38 * may associate data with each device and each node (station). Both
39 * sets of storage are opaque except for the size of the per-node storage
40 * which must be provided when the module is attached.
41 *
42 * The rate control module is notified for each state transition and
43 * station association/reassociation. Otherwise it is queried for a
44 * rate for each outgoing frame and provided status from each transmitted
45 * frame. Any ancillary processing is the responsibility of the module
46 * (e.g. if periodic processing is required then the module should setup
47 * it's own timer).
48 *
49 * In addition to the transmit rate for each frame the module must also
50 * indicate the number of attempts to make at the specified rate. If this
51 * number is != ATH_TXMAXTRY then an additional callback is made to setup
52 * additional transmit state. The rate control code is assumed to write
53 * this additional data directly to the transmit descriptor.
