[RFC 1/2] wifi: nl80211: Add attribute to send critical update params

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

 



Add NL80211_ATTR_RXMGMT_CRITICAL_UPDATE attribute to send critical
update params to hostapd on NL80211_CMD_FRAME.

User space application requires these CU params to update fields on probe
and assoc response frame. So, during probe or assoc request frame receive,
send these params as a new attribute on existing NL80211_CMD_FRAME for
AP MLD.

Change in CU parameters should be sent to user space either before or
along with probe or assoc request frame receive to ensure that user space
uses latest CU values and BPCC while generating response to the received
frames. So, add the critical update parameters as a new attribute to
existing NL80211_CMD_FRAME command instead of sending this on a separate
NL80211 event.
