From 421b4ba50a5ad3ba99ad8a654f96850835271086 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jouni Malinen Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2009 21:48:05 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Add CONFIG_DRIVER_NL80211 and clarify client MLME limitations This is based on a patch from Pavel Roskin , but with the WIRELESS_DEV part removed instead of moved since it does not apply anymore. Additional note on client MLME limitations was also added. --- wpa_supplicant/defconfig | 14 ++++++-------- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/wpa_supplicant/defconfig b/wpa_supplicant/defconfig index 7a28e6fb9..dd9460d7b 100644 --- a/wpa_supplicant/defconfig +++ b/wpa_supplicant/defconfig @@ -82,6 +82,9 @@ CONFIG_DRIVER_ATMEL=y # Driver interface for generic Linux wireless extensions CONFIG_DRIVER_WEXT=y +# Driver interface for Linux drivers using the nl80211 kernel interface +#CONFIG_DRIVER_NL80211=y + # Driver interface for FreeBSD net80211 layer (e.g., Atheros driver) #CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y #CFLAGS += -I/usr/local/include @@ -360,15 +363,10 @@ CONFIG_PEERKEY=y # Include client MLME (management frame processing). # This can be used to move MLME processing of Linux mac80211 stack into user -# space. +# space.
