[PATCH v3 0/2] cfg80211/nl80211: prepare DFS offload

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

 



Hello Johannes and all,

Here is a patch set preparing DFS offload feature. The final purpose is
to enable DFS offload when hardware/driver does all the DFS activities
on its own without any support from user-space tools, e.g. hostapd.
In this case user-space will be only informed about results, e.g.
when CAC started/stopped, radar detected, etc...

User-space functionality is already available in hostapd in the form
of  vendor-specific (QCA) OUI advertising DFS offload support. The
idea is to add missing pieces to kernel and then to convert relevant
hostapd functionality into a vendor neutral form.

Thanks,
Sergey
