+ * struct sta_info - STA information
+ *
+ * This structure collects information about a station that
+ * mac80211 is communicating with.
+ *
+ * @list: global linked list entry
+ * @hnext: hash table linked list pointer
+ * @local: pointer to the global information
+ * @addr: MAC address of this STA
+ * @aid: STA's unique AID (1..2007, 0 = not assigned yet),
+ * only used in AP (and IBSS?) mode
+ * @flags: STA flags, see &enum ieee80211_sta_info_flags
+ * @ps_tx_buf: buffer of frames to transmit to this station
+ * when it leaves power saving state
+ * @tx_filtered: buffer of frames we already tried to transmit
+ * but were filtered by hardware due to STA having entered
+ * power saving state
+ * @rx_packets: Number of MSDUs received from this STA
+ * @rx_bytes: Number of bytes received from this STA
+ * @supp_rates: Bitmap of supported rates (per band)
+ * @ht_info: HT capabilities of this STA
