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 v3 is modified according to Johannes's comments on v2.
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
