Adding 802.11ax decode to 'iw scan dump' Checking for interest and looking for feedback.

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

 



Hello.

Attached is a first pass of adding 802.11ax decode to iw scan.c  It's a little messy still. Posting here to check if there is any interest in my continuing to add the decode to 'iw'. If so, please let me know how I can get the code up to standard.

Here is the output so far: https://gist.github.com/linuxlizard/45914f588d49fd077205c851c62fa013

I don't have the 802.11ax spec so I'm using Wireshark's AX decode to guide me. Also sanity checking with WiFi Explorer (MacOS). I've tried to make the correct attributes in ie_he.[ch] but could also use feedback in that area as well. 

I've been testing with an ASUS RT_AX88U, a Netgear Nighthawk RAX80 (both with Broadcom chips), and a couple Qualcomm 807x devices.  For another test, I've captured the nlattr to a file where I can rebuild the nlmsg, feed it back into scan.c.

Thanks,
David
