[PATCH 4/6] mac80211: Send control port frames over nl80211

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

 



If userspace requested control port frames to go over 80211, then do so.
The control packets are intercepted just prior to delivery of the packet
to the underlying network device.

Pre-authentication type frames (protocol: 0x88c7) are also forwarded
over nl80211.
