Yes, the data is there in the stack, but the cfg80211 BSS contains data that is not authenticated (from probe responses etc.) whereas mac80211 is (hopefully always) operating on data that is authenticated with beacon protection. So exposing this to the driver feels fragile - if it actually gets used for pretty much anything, it won't necessarily be authenticated data. We were planning to use it for just the RSSI, which is probably fine, but we can do that differently. johannes
