So at least mac80211 would have to provide wrappers. And there would also have to be capability bits so that mac80211 doesn't actually do all of this in software when the driver does it, avoiding double notifications and overhead. johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
