[RFC bluetooth-next 0/4] ieee802154: add support for phy capabilities

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

this patches introduce a mechanism to get phy capabilities. We simple add
some additional pib values like "channels_supported" information. These
information also includes mib values which are phy dependent like frame_retries
or csma_backoffs, this is necessary because the phy doing a little bit mac
stuff. We simple extend the pib according these phy dependent mac values.

These capabilities are by default full 802.15.4 complaint, if some transceiver
supports less functionality only then these values need to be overwritten inside
the driver-layer.

Fruthermore we also add functionality to dump these values via
NL802154_CMD_GET_WPAN_PHY.
