/************************** DOCUMENTATION **************************/
/*
* Initial APIs (1996 -> onward) :
* -----------------------------
* Basically, the wireless extensions are for now a set of standard ioctl
* call + /proc/net/wireless
*
* The entry /proc/net/wireless give statistics and information on the
* driver.
* This is better than having each driver having its entry because
* its centralised and we may remove the driver module safely.
*
* Ioctl are used to configure the driver and issue commands. This is
* better than command line options of insmod because we may want to
* change dynamically (while the driver is running) some parameters.
*
* The ioctl mechanimsm are copied from standard devices ioctl.
* We have the list of command plus a structure descibing the
* data exchanged...
* Note that to add these ioctl, I was obliged to modify :
* # net/core/dev.c (two place + add include)
* # net/ipv4/af_inet.c (one place + add include)
*
* /proc/net/wireless is a copy of /proc/net/dev.
* We have a structure for data passed from the driver to /proc/net/wireless
* Too add this, I've modified :
* # net/core/dev.c (two other places)
* # include/linux/netdevice.h (one place)
* # include/linux/proc_fs.h (one place)
*
* New driver API (2002 -> onward) :
* -------------------------------
* This file is only concerned with the user space API and common definitions.
* The new driver API is defined and documented in :
* # include/net/iw_handler.h
*
* Note as well that /proc/net/wireless implementation has now moved in :
* # net/core/wireless.c
*
* Wireless Events (2002 -> onward) :
* --------------------------------
* Events are defined at the end of this file, and implemented in :
* # net/core/wireless.c
*
* Other comments :
* --------------
* Do not add here things that are redundant with other mechanisms
* (drivers init, ifconfig, /proc/net/dev, ...) and with are not
* wireless specific.
*
* These wireless extensions are not magic : each driver has to provide
* support for them...
*
* IMPORTANT NOTE : As everything in the kernel, this is very much a
* work in progress. Contact me if you have ideas of improvements...
