Subject: [PATCH v7 03/10] mac80211: Support userspace mesh authentication
Date: Mon,  4 Apr 2011 18:15:33 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1301966140-26080-4-git-send-email-thomas@cozybit.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1301966140-26080-1-git-send-email-thomas@cozybit.com>

Also, disallow joining a secure mesh if the wiphy does not support
authentication.
