From 0a35d36d6f019bde6c98812456798275b02e5aee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Javier Cardona Date: Wed, 4 May 2011 10:24:56 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: Use capability info to detect mesh beacons. Mesh beacons no longer use all-zeroes BSSID. Beacon frames for MBSS, infrastructure BSS, or IBSS are differentiated by the Capability Information field in the Beacon frame. A mesh STA sets the ESS and IBSS subfields to 0 in transmitted Beacon or Probe Response management frames. Signed-off-by: Javier Cardona Signed-off-by: John W.
