From 2a91c9f781de209d420d751e43eb43ffe6934803 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amitkumar Karwar Date: Fri, 9 Nov 2012 17:51:30 -0800 Subject: nl/cfg80211: advertise OBSS scan requirement wpa_supplicant will do OBSS scan for drivers that implement auth/assoc API. Drivers that implement nl80211 connect API (rather than auth/assoc) may need wpa_supplicant to do this as well. Add a new feature flag to inform it (wpa_s) that a driver needs wpa_supplicant to do OBSS scans.

However, there are also cases where the driver may need to request operations from userspace, e.g., when using security on the AP path. Add a new cfg80211 function for generating a TDLS operation event for drivers to request a new link to be set up (NL80211_TDLS_SETUP) or an existing link to be torn down (NL80211_TDLS_TEARDOWN). Drivers can optionally use these events, e.g., based on noticing data traffic being sent to a peer station that is seen with good signal strength.
