Subject: [RFC 0/3 net] lorawan: Add LoRaWAN soft MAC module
Date:   Fri, 24 Aug 2018 01:15:40 +0800
Message-Id: <cover.1535039998.git.starnight@g.ncu.edu.tw>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

LoRaWAN(TM) is the MAC layer defined by LoRa Alliance(TM) over LoRa
devices.  LoRa is one of Low-Power Wide-Area Network (LPWAN) technology.

LoRaWAN networks typically are laid out in a star-of-stars topology in
which gateways relay messages between end-devices and a central network
server at the backend.  Gateways are connected to the network server via
standard IP connections while end-devices use single hop LoRa(TM) or FSK
communication to one or many gateways.

A LoRa network distinguishes between a basic LoRaWAN (named Class A) and
optional features (Class B, Class C ...):
* Bi-directional end-devices (Class A)
* Bi-directional end-devices with scheduled receive slots (Class B)
* Bi-directional end-devices with maximal receive slots (Class C)

This patch set add LoRaWAN class module implementing the stack,
especially the soft MAC, between socket APIs and LoRa device drivers.

socket APIs:
send and receive the data
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LoRaWAN class module implements soft MAC:
append the header/footer, encryption/decryption, timing slot and MAC
commands
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LoRa device drivers:
send and receive the messages for MAC layer
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LoRa devices

This module starts from simple and implements partial Class A
end-devices features defined in LoRaWAN(TM) Specification Ver. 1.0.2.
More features and complexity, for example regional parameters, confirmed
data messages, join request/accept messages for Over-The-Air Activation,
MAC commands ... will be added in the future.

Besides, I upload these patches and open discussion.  For example, the
more common/flexible interface for compatible LoRa device drivers and
protocols implementation, etc.

Another idea mentioned by Andreas: Make PF_LORA and PF_LORAWAN like
PF_INET and PF_INET6 exist at the same time.  That is also interesting.
