I got to thinking:  Is there any reason to put the sta.addr in there?

Maybe just use sta->sdata->name?  Seems it might be easier for
scripts to deal with?

APs have many STAs

So, when in STA mode, sta_info are related to local VIFs, but
in AP mode, they represent the remote wireless devices, with sdata pointing
to the local AP interface?

No, there's a sta_info for each peer, which in STA mode is only the AP.

maybe the stations should be moved from phy0/stations/ to
phy0/wlan0/stations/ instead?

That would be fine with me.

Thanks,
Ben
