2011-04-13cfg80211/nl80211: Add userspace authentication flag to mesh setupJavier Cardona1-0/+4
During mesh setup, use NL80211_MESH_SETUP_USERSPACE_AUTH flag to create a secure mesh and route management frames to userspace. Also, NL80211_CMD_GET_WIPHY now returns a flag NL80211_SUPPORT_MESH_AUTH if the wiphy's mesh implementation supports routing of mesh auth frames to userspace. This is useful for forward compatibility between old kernels and new userspace tools.

2011-04-13nl80211: rename NL80211_MESH_SETUP_VENDOR_PATH_SEL_IEJavier Cardona1-2/+2
To NL80211_MESH_SETUP_IE. This reflects our ability to insert any ie into a mesh beacon, not simply path selection ies. Signed-off-by: Javier Cardona <javier@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-12-20mac80211: Let userspace enable and configure vendor specific path selection.Javier Cardona1-11/+13
Userspace will now be allowed to toggle between the default path selection algorithm (HWMP, implemented in the kernel), and a vendor specific alternative. Also in the same patch, allow userspace to add information elements to mesh beacons. This is accordance with the Extensible Path Selection Framework specified in version 7.0 of the 802.11s draft.

2010-12-07cfg80211/mac80211: add mesh join/leave commandsJohannes Berg1-0/+140
Instead of tying mesh activity to interface up, add join and leave commands for mesh. Since we must be backward compatible, let cfg80211 handle joining a mesh if a mesh ID was pre-configured when the device goes up. Note that this therefore must modify mac80211 as well since mac80211 needs to lose the logic to start the mesh on interface up. We now allow querying mesh parameters before the mesh is connected, which simply returns defaults. Setting them (internally renamed to "update") is only allowed while connected. Specify them with the new mesh join command instead where needed. In mac80211, beaconing must now also follow the mesh enabled/not enabled state, which is done by testing the mesh ID.
