[RFC 0/3] PMKSA support

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

 



Hi John,

This patchset is an RFC for a new PMKSA API. This is needed for fullmac
devices that run firmwares which set the re-association frames IEs. Those
devices need to get a correct PMKID from wpa_supplicant in order to do faster
WPA2 roaming. mac80211 based drivers wont need to use this API, wpa_supplicant
does all the work for them.

The patchset defines the nl80211 API, adds a wext compatibility handler, and
finally provides the corresponding iwmc3200wifi implementation. 

Samuel Ortiz (3):
  nl80211: PMKSA caching support
  cfg80211: Add PMKSA wext compatibility handler
  iwmc3200wifi: Implement cfg80211 PMKSA API
