[PATCH v2 1/5] mac80211: process the CSA frame for mesh accordingly

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Process the CSA frame according to the procedures define in IEEE Std
802.11-2012 section 10.9.8.4.3 as follow:
* The mesh channel switch parameters element (MCSP) must be availabe.
* If the MCSP's TTL is 1, drop the frame but still process the CSA.
* If the MCSP's precedence value is less than or equal to the current
  precedence value, drop the frame and do not process the CSA.
* The CSA frame is forwarded after TTL is decremented by 1 and the
  initiator field is set to 0. Transmit restrict field and others
  are maintained as is.
* No beacon or probe response frame are handled here.

Also, introduce the debug message used for mesh CSA purpose.
