29  * ath_hw_set_bssid_mask - filter out bssids we listen
30  *
31  * @common: the ath_common struct for the device.
32  *
33  * BSSID masking is a method used by AR5212 and newer hardware to inform PCU
34  * which bits of the interface's MAC address should be looked at when trying
35  * to decide which packets to ACK. In station mode and AP mode with a single
36  * BSS every bit matters since we lock to only one BSS. In AP mode with
37  * multiple BSSes (virtual interfaces) not every bit matters because hw must
38  * accept frames for all BSSes and so we tweak some bits of our mac address
39  * in order to have multiple BSSes.
40  *
41  * NOTE: This is a simple filter and does *not* filter out all
42  * relevant frames. Some frames that are not for us might get ACKed from us
43  * by PCU because they just match the mask.
44  *
45  * When handling multiple BSSes you can get the BSSID mask by computing the
46  * set of ~ ( MAC XOR BSSID ) for all bssids we handle.
47  *
48  * When you do this you are essentially computing the common bits of all your
49  * BSSes. Later it is assumed the hardware will "and" (&) the BSSID mask with
50  * the MAC address to obtain the relevant bits and compare the result with
51  * (frame's BSSID & mask) to see if they match.
52  *
53  * Simple example: on your card you have have two BSSes you have created with
54  * BSSID-01 and BSSID-02. Lets assume BSSID-01 will not use the MAC address.
55  * There is another BSSID-03 but you are not part of it. For simplicity's sake,
56  * assuming only 4 bits for a mac address and for BSSIDs you can then have:
57  *
58  * \
59  * MAC: 0001 |
60  * BSSID-01: 0100 | --> Belongs to us
61  * BSSID-02: 1001 |
62  * /
63  * -------------------
64  * BSSID-03: 0110 | --> External
65  * -------------------
66  *
67  * Our bssid_mask would then be:
68  *
69  * On loop iteration for BSSID-01:
70  * ~(0001 ^ 0100) -> ~(0101)
71  * -> 1010
72  * bssid_mask = 1010
73  *
74  * On loop iteration for BSSID-02:
75  * bssid_mask &= ~(0001 ^ 1001)
76  * bssid_mask = (1010) & ~(0001 ^ 1001)
77  * bssid_mask = (1010) & ~(1000)
78  * bssid_mask = (1010) & (0111)
79  * bssid_mask = 0010
80  *
81  * A bssid_mask of 0010 means "only pay attention to the second least
82  * significant bit". This is because its the only bit common
83  * amongst the MAC and all BSSIDs we support. To findout what the real
84  * common bit is we can simply "&" the bssid_mask now with any BSSID we have
85  * or our MAC address (we assume the hardware uses the MAC address).
86  *
87  * Now, suppose there's an incoming frame for BSSID-03:
88  *
89  * IFRAME-01: 0110
90  *
91  * An easy eye-inspeciton of this already should tell you that this frame
92  * will not pass our check. This is because the bssid_mask tells the
93  * hardware to only look at the second least significant bit and the
94  * common bit amongst the MAC and BSSIDs is 0, this frame has the 2nd LSB
95  * as 1, which does not match 0.
96  *
97  * So with IFRAME-01 we *assume* the hardware will do:
98  *
99  * allow = (IFRAME-01 & bssid_mask) == (bssid_mask & MAC) ? 1 : 0;
100  * --> allow = (0110 & 0010) == (0010 & 0001) ? 1 : 0;
101  * --> allow = (0010) == 0000 ? 1 : 0;
102  * --> allow = 0
103  *
104  * Lets now test a frame that should work:
105  *
106  * IFRAME-02: 0001 (we should allow)
107  *
108  * allow = (IFRAME-02 & bssid_mask) == (bssid_mask & MAC) ? 1 : 0;
109  * --> allow = (0001 & 0010) == (0010 & 0001) ? 1 :0;
110  * --> allow = (0000) == (0000)
111  * --> allow = 1
112  *
113  * Other examples:
114  *
115  * IFRAME-03: 0100 --> allowed
116  * IFRAME-04: 1001 --> allowed
117  * IFRAME-05: 1101 --> allowed but its not for us!!!
