Net-detect is an option of wowlan to allow the device to
be woken up from suspend mode when configured network is detected.
When user enables net-detect and lets the device enter suspend
state, wowlan firmware will periodically scan until beacon or
probe response of configured networks are received.
Between two scans, wowlan firmware keeps wifi chip in idle mode
to reduce power consumption. If configured networks are detected,
wowlan firmware will trigger resume process.

Pattern match is an option of wowlan to allow the device
to be woken up from suspend mode when receiving packets
matched user-designed patterns.
The patterns are written into hardware cam in suspend flow
if users have set up them. If packets matched designed
pattern are received, wowlan firmware will get an interrupt
and then wake up the device.

Wake on WLAN(wowlan) is a feature which allows devices
to be woken up from suspend state through wlan events.
When user enables wowlan feature and then let the device
enter suspend state, wowlan firmware will be loaded by
the driver and periodically monitors wifi packets.
Power consumption of wifi chip will be reduced in this
state.
If wowlan firmware detects that specific wlan event
happens, it will issue wakeup signal to trigger resume
process. Driver will load normal firmware and let wifi
chip return to the original state.
Currently supported wlan events include receiving magic packet,
rekey packet and deauth packet, and disconnecting from AP.
