    cfg80211/mac80211: allow registering for and sending action frames · 026331c4
    Jouni Malinen 提交于
    This implements a new command to register for action frames
    that userspace wants to handle instead of the in-kernel
    rejection. It is then responsible for rejecting ones that
    it decided not to handle. There is no unregistration, but
    the socket can be closed for that.
    
    Frames that are not registered for will not be forwarded
    to userspace and will be rejected by the kernel, the
    cfg80211 API helps implementing that.
    
    Additionally, this patch adds a new command that allows
    doing action frame transmission from userspace. It can be
    used either to exchange action frames on the current
    operational channel (e.g., with the AP with which we are
    currently associated) or to exchange off-channel Public
    Action frames with the remain-on-channel command.
