From f7ca38dfe58c20cb1aa2ed9643187e8b194b5bae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Thu, 25 Nov 2010 10:02:29 +0100 Subject: nl80211/cfg80211: extend mgmt-tx API for off-channel With p2p, it is sometimes necessary to transmit a frame (typically an action frame) on another channel than the current channel. Enable this through the CMD_FRAME API, and allow it to wait for a response. A new command allows that wait to be aborted. However, allow userspace to specify whether or not it wants to allow off-channel TX, it may actually want to use the same channel only. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
