cfg80211: Extend support for IEEE 802.11r Fast BSS Transition
Add NL80211_CMD_UPDATE_FT_IES to support update of FT IEs to the
WLAN driver and NL80211_CMD_FT_EVENT to send FT events from the
WLAN driver. This will carry the target AP's MAC address along
cfg80211: Extend support for IEEE 802.11r Fast BSS Transition
Add NL80211_CMD_UPDATE_FT_IES to support update of FT IEs to the
WLAN driver and NL80211_CMD_FT_EVENT to send FT events from the
WLAN driver. This will carry the target AP's MAC address along
with the relevant Information Elements. This event is used to
report received FT IEs (MDIE, FTIE, RSN IE, TIE, RICIE). These
changes allow FT to be supported with drivers that use an internal
SME instead of user space option (like FT implementation in
wpa_supplicant with mac80211-based drivers).
