From c80d545da3f7c0e534ccd4a780f322f80a92cff1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Javier Cardona Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2010 17:37:49 -0800 Subject: mac80211: Let userspace enable and configure vendor specific path selection. 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.
