+ * DOC: Powersave support

+ *
+ * First, it can support hardware that handles all powersaving by
+ * itself, such hardware should simply set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS
+ * hardware flag. In that case, it will be told about the desired
+ * powersave mode depending on the association status, and the driver
+ * must take care of sending nullfunc frames when necessary, i.e. when
+ * entering and leaving powersave mode. The driver is required to look at
+ * the AID in beacons and signal to the AP that it woke up when it finds
+ * traffic directed to it. This mode supports dynamic PS by simply
+ * enabling/disabling PS.
+ *
+ * Additionally, such hardware may set the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS
+ * flag to indicate that it can support dynamic PS mode itself (see below).
+ *
+ * Other hardware designs cannot send nullfunc frames by themselves and also
+ * need software support for parsing the TIM bitmap. This is also supported
+ * by mac80211 by combining the %IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
+ * %IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK flags. The hardware is of course still
+ * required to pass up beacons. Additionally, in this case, mac80211 will
+ * wake up the hardware when multicast traffic is announced in the beacon.
+ *
+ * FIXME: I don't think we can be fast enough in software when we want to
+ * receive multicast traffic?
+ *
+ * Dynamic powersave mode is an extension to normal powersave mode in which
+ * the hardware stays awake for a user-specified period of time after sending
+ * a frame so that reply frames need not be buffered and therefore delayed
+ * to the next wakeup. This can either be supported by hardware, in which case
+ * the driver needs to look at the @dynamic_ps_timeout hardware configuration
+ * value, or by the stack if all nullfunc handling is in the stack.
