Subject: [PATCH 0/3] implement active mesh scanning
Date: Sat,  2 Feb 2013 17:02:18 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1359853341-29237-1-git-send-email-thomas@cozybit.com> (raw)

This set improves the mesh scanning functionality by:

	- responding to broadcast or directed probe requests
	- allowing the user to generate a directed mesh probe request, ie:
		iw mesh0 scan ssid foo
	  on a mesh interface will send probe requests where the ssid "foo" has
	  been filled into the mesh ID IE.

Also patch 1 caches the mesh beacon in a struct beacon_data each time it
changes so probe responses can be quickly built. This is also convenient when
the TIM IE becomes needed for PS.

Applies on mac80211-next/master
