Hi Jouni,
In current code, SIGHUP can be used to reconfigure hostapd.
Upon this signal hostapd will read .conf file and reconfigure.
In case of MBSS, I find it useful to be able to reconfigure only
specific BSS(s) without interfering other BSS's currently running.
I want to implement such mechanism and want your opinion.
I waver between two options:
1. Add BSS reload mask (of BSS's) to .conf file so that only the
BSS's enabled in the bitmask will be reconfigured from the
conf file upon SIGHUP.
2. Add hostapd_cli RECONFIGURE option that receive as
parameter the BSS's bitmask and reconfigures
(from .conf file).only the enabled BSS's.
Appreciate your feedback.
Thanks,
Shay.
