[PATCH 2/4] wifi: nl80211: add configuration support for ap power save

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

 



From: Venkateswara Naralasetty <quic_vnaralas@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Add support to configure AP power save mode from the
user space using a new nl80211 attribute
NL80211_ATTR_AP_PS through the NL80211_CMD_UPDATE_AP
command.

This feature will be enabled when the driver advertise
the flag SUPPORTS_AP_PS to mac80211.
