Subject: [PATCH wireless-dev] d80211: Add support for user space client MLME
Date: Tue, 2 May 2006 14:18:17 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060502211817.GA30842@instant802.com> (raw)
Add a configuration option for disabling client MLME in kernel
code. This is used to enable user space MLME for client mode (e.g.,
with wpa_supplicant). The kernel MLME implementation is unmodified,
but it could be removed or at least made optional in build
configuration in the future.
