From 266e2ee3cfd2084fc9ff252f6dcbb87fdf3a3655 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jouni Malinen Date: Sat, 29 Oct 2011 18:27:10 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211_hwsim: Remove forgotten files These live in the Linux kernel tree with mac80211_hwsim.c that was already removed from hostap.git. The notes and example configuration files are in Documentation/networking/mac80211_hwsim directory, so remove the unnecessarily duplicated files from hostap.git.

It can be used to test most of the mac80211 functionality and -user space tools (e.g., hostapd and wpa_supplicant) in a way that -matches very closely with the normal case of using real WLAN -hardware. From the mac80211 view point, mac80211_hwsim is yet another -hardware driver, i.e., no changes to mac80211 are needed to use this -testing tool. - -The main goal for mac80211_hwsim is to make it easier for developers -to test their code and work with new features to mac80211, hostapd, -and wpa_supplicant. The simulated radios do not have the limitations -of real hardware, so it is easy to generate an arbitrary test setup -and always reproduce the same setup for future tests. In addition, -since all radio operation is simulated, any channel can be used in -tests regardless of regulatory rules. - -mac80211_hwsim kernel module has a parameter 'radios' that can be used -to select how many radios are simulates (default 2). This allows -configuration of both very simply setups (e.g., just a single access -point and a station) or large scale tests (multiple access points with -hundreds of stations). - -mac80211_hwsim works by tracking the current channel of each virtual -radio and copying all transmitted frames to all other radios that are -currently enabled and on the same channel as the transmitting -radio. Software encryption in mac80211 is used so that the frames are -actually encrypted over the virtual air interface to allow more -complete testing of encryption. - -A global monitoring netdev, hwsim#, is created independent of -mac80211. This interface can be used to monitor all transmitted frames -regardless of channel. - - -Simple example - -This example shows how to use mac80211_hwsim to simulate two radios: -one to act as an access point and the other as a station that -associates with the AP. hostapd and wpa_supplicant are used to take -care of WPA2-PSK authentication. In addition, hostapd is also -processing access point side of association. - -# Load the module (needs to be built into your kernel) -modprobe mac80211_hwsim - -# Run hostapd (AP) for wlan0 -hostapd hostapd.conf - -# Run wpa_supplicant (station) for wlan1 -wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan1 -c wpa_supplicant.conf diff --git a/mac80211_hwsim/hostapd.conf b/mac80211_hwsim/hostapd.conf deleted file mode 100644 index 08cde7e35..000000000 --- a/mac80211_hwsim/hostapd.conf +++ /dev/null @@ -1,11 +0,0 @@ -interface=wlan0 -driver=nl80211 - -hw_mode=g -channel=1 -ssid=mac80211 test - -wpa=2 -wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK -wpa_pairwise=CCMP -wpa_passphrase=12345678 diff --git a/mac80211_hwsim/wpa_supplicant.conf b/mac80211_hwsim/wpa_supplicant.conf deleted file mode 100644 index 299128cff..000000000 --- a/mac80211_hwsim/wpa_supplicant.conf +++ /dev/null @@ -1,10 +0,0 @@ -ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant - -network={ - ssid="mac80211 test" - psk="12345678" - key_mgmt=WPA-PSK - proto=WPA2 - pairwise=CCMP - group=CCMP -}
