Description:

This structure holds WiFi-specific statistics.

Your driver must fill in the following members:

valid_stats

A set of flags that indicate what WiFi-specific statistics the driver keeps track of. The following flags are defined:

• NIC_WIFI_STAT_TX_FRAGMENT -- the tx_fragment field is valid.
• NIC_WIFI_STAT_TX_MULTICAST -- the tx_multicast field is valid.
• NIC_WIFI_STAT_TX_FAILED -- the tx_failed field is valid.
• NIC_WIFI_STAT_TX_RETRY -- the tx_retry field is valid.
• NIC_WIFI_STAT_TX_MULTI_RETRY -- the tx_multi_retry field is valid.
• NIC_WIFI_STAT_RTS_SUCCESS -- the rts_success field is valid.
• NIC_WIFI_STAT_RTS_FAILURE -- the rts_failure field is valid.
• NIC_WIFI_STAT_ACK_FAILURE -- the ack_failure field is valid.
• NIC_WIFI_STAT_DUPLICATE -- the duplicate field is valid.
• NIC_WIFI_STAT_RX_FRAGMENT -- the rx_fragment field is valid.
• NIC_WIFI_STAT_RX_MULTICAST -- the rx_multicast field is valid.
• NIC_WIFI_STAT_FCS_ERRORS -- the fcs_errors field is valid.

tx_fragment

The number of data or management fragments that were transmitted successfully. This number corresponds to the TransmittedFragmentCount attribute defined by the IEEE 802.11 specification.

tx_multicast

The number of multicast frames that were transmitted sucessfully. This number corresponds to the MulticastTransmittedFrameCount attribute defined by the IEEE 802.11 specification.

tx_failed

The number of frame transmissions that were aborted because they exceeded the retry limits. This number corresponds to the FailedCount attribute defined by the IEEE 802.11 specification.

tx_retry

The number of frames that were successfully transmitted, after one or more retries. This number corresponds to the RetryCount attribute defined by the IEEE 802.11 specification.

tx_multi_retry

The number of frames that were successfully transmitted, after more than one retry. This number corresponds to the MultipleRetryCount attribute defined by the IEEE 802.11 specification.

rts_success

The number of times a clear to send (CTS) was received in response to a request to send (RTS). This number corresponds to the RTSSuccessCount attribute defined by the IEEE 802.11 specification.

rts_failure

The number of times a CTS was not received in response to an RTS. This number corresponds to the RTSFailureCount attribute defined by the IEEE 802.11 specification.

ack_failure

The number of times an unexpected ACK was received. This number corresponds to the AckFailureCount attribute defined by the IEEE 802.11 specification.

duplicate

The number of times a duplicate frame was received. This number corresponds to the FrameDuplicateCount attribute defined by the IEEE 802.11 specification.

rx_fragment

The number of data or management fragments that were successfully received. This number corresponds to the ReceivedFragmentCount attribute defined by the IEEE 802.11 specification.

rx_multicast

The number of multicast frames that were successfully received. This number corresponds to the MulticastReceivedFrameCount attribute defined by the IEEE 802.11 specification.

fcs_errors

The number of received frames that had frame check-sequence errors. This number corresponds to the FCSErrorCount attribute defined by the IEEE 802.11 specification.
