[PATCH v2 0/4] Support proactive PREQ mechanism in Mesh

Chun-Yeow Yeoh <yeohchunyeow@xxxxxxxxx> · Thu, 7 Jun 2012 12:39:19 +0800

These series of patches allow the support of proactive PREQ mechanism as defined in
Sec. 13.10.4.2 of IEEE Std. 802.11-2012 based on the setting of dot11MeshHWMPRootMode
as follow:

dot11MeshHWMPRootMode (2): Proactive PREQ no PREP
dot11MeshHWMPRootMode (3): Proactive PREQ with PREP

Proactive RANN is now supported if the dot11MeshHWMPRootMode is set as (4).

This v2 is modified according to Johannes's comments.

Chun-Yeow Yeoh (4):
  {nl,cfg,mac}80211: implement dot11MeshHWMProotInterval and
    dot11MeshHWMPactivePathToRootTimeout
  mac80211: implement the proactive PREQ generation
  mac80211: implement the proactive PREP generation
  mac80211: invoke the timer only with correct dot11MeshHWMPRootMode
    value
