Hi!
I saw on your code that you resolve the multicas id of several groups
for the nl80211 family /online/, like "scan" and "mlme". I'd like to
know if there are defined constants for those IDs (i'm guessing
they're not).
Also I wanted to know what other groups exist and what messages I
should expect from them (no docs, or my bad search skills?).
Is there a multicast group to get reports on link quality changes, or
similar, or is that only available through polling?
Thanks,
André Prata

There's no list it seems -- you'll have to look at nl80211.c.

You can subscribe to such changes though I think only one application
can do that right now and wpa_s will do it.
