Subject: [PATCH 3/4] nl80211: Pass probe response data to drivers
Date: Sat, 22 Oct 2011 15:11:51 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1319289112-21896-3-git-send-email-guy@wizery.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1319289112-21896-1-git-send-email-guy@wizery.com>
Allow usermode to pass probe-response data. This data can be used as a
template probe-response offloading.
