2 IEEE 802.15.4 Developer's Guide
7 The IEEE 802.15.4 working group focuses on standardization of the bottom
15 of the IEEE 802.15.4 and 6LoWPAN protocols. IEEE 802.15.4 is a stack
20 - IEEE 802.15.4 layer;  We have chosen to use plain Berkeley socket API,
21   the generic Linux networking stack to transfer IEEE 802.15.4 data
41 The IEEE 802.15.4 standard specifies an MTU of 127 bytes, yielding about 80
68 Like with WiFi, there are several types of devices implementing IEEE 802.15.4.
97 The MAC is the middle layer in the IEEE 802.15.4 Linux stack. This moment it
100 NOTE: Currently the only monitor device type is supported - it's IEEE 802.15.4

146 The device driver must implement the following callbacks in the IEEE 802.15.4
160 .. c:function:: int start(struct ieee802154_hw *hw)
162 Handler that 802.15.4 module calls for the hardware device initialization.
164 .. c:function:: void stop(struct ieee802154_hw *hw)
166 Handler that 802.15.4 module calls for the hardware device cleanup.
168 .. c:function:: int xmit_async(struct ieee802154_hw *hw, struct sk_buff *skb)
170 Handler that 802.15.4 module calls for each frame in the skb going to be
173 .. c:function:: int ed(struct ieee802154_hw *hw, u8 *level)
175 Handler that 802.15.4 module calls for Energy Detection from the hardware
178 .. c:function:: int set_channel(struct ieee802154_hw *hw, u8 page, u8 channel)
182 Moreover IEEE 802.15.4 device operations structure should be filled.
