STRUCT IEEE80211_KEY(9) | Advanced driver interface | STRUCT IEEE80211_KEY(9) |
NAME¶
struct_ieee80211_key_conf - key informationSYNOPSIS¶
struct ieee80211_key_conf { u32 cipher; u8 icv_len; u8 iv_len; u8 hw_key_idx; u8 flags; s8 keyidx; u8 keylen; u8 key[0]; };
MEMBERS¶
cipherThe key's cipher suite selector.
icv_len
The ICV length for this key type
iv_len
The IV length for this key type
hw_key_idx
To be set by the driver, this is the key index the driver
wants to be given when a frame is transmitted and needs to be encrypted in
hardware.
flags
key flags, see enum ieee80211_key_flags.
keyidx
the key index (0-3)
keylen
key material length
key[0]
key material. For ALG_TKIP the key is encoded as a
256-bit (32 byte)
DESCRIPTION¶
This key information is given by mac80211 to the driver by the set_key callback in struct ieee80211_ops.DATA BLOCK¶
