in station mode you are right. you need to modify mac80211.
Even if I don't need to capture the IE back? All I want is to include
extra vendor IE in client assoc/reassoc frames. If this is something the
current wireless stack cannot do, perhaps it should be implemented.
Contrary to what Sebastian states, it certainly is possible today,
although not through wpa_supplicant's config file, only through the
wpa_cli interface, using the VENDOR_ELEM_ADD command. There are various
tests showing how to use this.

i was talking about a different scenario. its not about adding a
element, but to read it back for gui for instance. this is why i made a
patch which parses this special ie
and adds the radioname as extra element to the station table. this works
for ap as well of course. so iw ath0 station dump will print out the
radio name if available
