Hi, I'm developing an wireless emulator (https://github.com/intrig-unicamp/mininet-wifi) which relies on mac80211_hwsim for loading virtual wireless interfaces. In order to get access points wirelessly connected I was think to enable WDS (in addition to the well known mesh mode). Then, I went through mac80211_hwsim and I noticed that I could make it work with BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_WDS) in mac80211_hwsim. That said, I thought to submit this patch. ps. I'm not an expert in Linux Kernel and I don't know if something else have to be done. It just worked applying this patch. --- drivers/net/wireless/mac80211_hwsim.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/mac80211_hwsim.c b/drivers/net/wireless/mac80211_hwsim.c index 6467ffac9811e..1f8229e545190 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/mac80211_hwsim.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/mac80211_hwsim.c @@ -453,6 +453,7 @@ static const struct ieee80211_iface_limit hwsim_if_limits[] = { BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT) | #endif BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_AP) | + BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_WDS) | BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_GO) }, /* must be last, see hwsim_if_comb */ { .max = 1, .types = BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_DEVICE) } @@ -2562,6 +2563,7 @@ static int mac80211_hwsim_new_radio(struct genl_info *info, hw->offchannel_tx_hw_queue = 4; hw->wiphy->interface_modes = BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_STATION) | BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_AP) | + BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_WDS) | BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_CLIENT) | BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_GO) | BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC) |
