Subject: [PATCH v2] mac80211: add support for userspace to handle auth frames on adhoc ifaces

Message-ID: <4FDA14D1.30804@opentechinstitute.org> (raw)
Allow userspace daemons to register for (DE)AUTH management frames
received on an adhoc interface. Registration for these frames, done
through nl80211, is necessary to support certain userspace
authentication schemes.
