linux-toradex.git/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h, branch v3.14.28 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules cfg80211: Add support for QoS mapping 2013-12-19T15:29:22+00:00 Kyeyoon Park kyeyoonp@qca.qualcomm.com 2013-12-17T07:01:30+00:00 fa9ffc745610f31c6bc136d5a6a1782e00870e72 This allows QoS mapping from external networks to be implemented as defined in IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 10.24.9. APs can use this to advertise DSCP ranges and exceptions for mapping frames to a specific UP over Wi-Fi. The payload of the QoS Map Set element (IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 8.4.2.97) is sent to the driver through the new NL80211_ATTR_QOS_MAP attribute to configure the local behavior either on the AP (based on local configuration) or on a station (based on information received from the AP).

nl80211: support vendor-specific events 2013-12-19T12:40:31+00:00 Johannes Berg johannes.berg@intel.com 2013-12-18T13:43:31+00:00 567ffc3509b2d3f965a49a18631d3da7f9a96d4f In addition to vendor-specific commands, also support vendor-specific events. These must be registered with cfg80211 before they can be used. They're also advertised in nl80211 in the wiphy information so that userspace knows can be expected. The events themselves are sent on a new multicast group called "vendor". Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

This is intended to be used for really vendor-specific functionality that can't be implemented in a generic fashion for any reason. It's *NOT* intended to be used for any normal/generic feature or any optimisations that could be implemented across drivers. Currently, only vendor commands (with replies) are supported, no dump operations or vendor-specific notifications. Also add a function wdev_to_ieee80211_vif() to mac80211 which is needed for mac80211-based drivers wanting to implement any vendor commands. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
