Subject: [PATCHv4 0/2] cfg80211/mac80211: Add support to configure and monitor station's rssi threshold
Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2019 14:51:18 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1555492880-26457-1-git-send-email-tamizhr@codeaurora.org> (raw)

This patchsets introduced new NL command and api to support
configuring rssi for the connected stations and api to notify
userspace application upon crossing the configured threshold.
This will be useful for the application which requires
station's current signal strength change information.
Monitoring station's signal strength through station dump command
will unnecessarily increase the system overhead. This event based
mechanism will reduce the system overhead and helps application to
take a decision for the station for which event received.

Tamizh chelvam (2):
  cfg80211: Add support to configure station specific RSSI threshold
    for AP mode
  mac80211: Implement API to configure station specific rssi threshold

v4:
 * Fixed sparse warning

v3:
 * Address Johannes comments

v2:
 * Combined patchset 2 and 3 as single patch and addressed Johannes comments.
