Hello!
I am sending along 3 patches to add support for user space applications
to register for authentication frames on adhoc interfaces. These are
revisions to a previous patch that I submitted to accomplish the same
thing.
Patch 1/3 adds support for tracking whether userspace applications
are registered for authentication frames received by an adhoc
interface. This count is used in Patch 2/3 to determine
if an "open system" authentication frame is sent when a new
station joins an adhoc network.
Patch 2/3 adds support for checking the registration count
before sending out "open system" authentication frames when a
new station joins an adhoc network. If there are no userspace
applications registered for the authentication frames then
an "open system" authentication frame is broadcast.
Patch 3/3 sets the necessary flags to allow userspace
applications to register for authentication frames on adhoc interfaces.
frames.
As I've said before, I'm still new to this process so I look forward to
your feedback on improving.
