[PATCH 1/2] cfg80211: Unprotected Beacon frame RX indication

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

 



Extend cfg80211_rx_unprot_mlme_mgmt() to cover indication of unprotected
Beacon frames in addition to the previously used Deauthentication and
Disassociation frames. The Beacon frame case is quite similar, but has
couple of exceptions: this is used both with fully unprotected and also
incorrectly protected frames and there is a rate limit on the events to
avoid unnecessary flooding netlink events in case something goes wrong.
