[PATCH v5 02/10] nl80211: Add userspace authentication flag to mesh setup

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

 



From: Javier Cardona <javier@xxxxxxxxxxx>

During mesh setup, use NL80211_MESH_SETUP_USERSPACE_AUTH flag to create
a secure mesh and route management frames to userspace.
