* struct mesh_config - 802.11s mesh configuration
*
* These parameters can be changed while the mesh is active.
+ *
+ * @dot11MeshRetryTimeout: the initial retry timeout in millisecond units used
+ * by the Mesh Peering Open message
+ * @dot11MeshConfirmTimeout: the initial retry timeout in millisecond units
+ * used by the Mesh Peering Open message
+ * @dot11MeshHoldingTimeout: the confirm timeout in millisecond units used by
+ * the mesh peering management to close a mesh peering
+ * @dot11MeshMaxPeerLinks: the maximum number of peer links allowed on this
+ * mesh interface
+ * @dot11MeshMaxRetries: the maximum number of peer link open retries that can
+ * be sent to establish a new peer link instance in a mesh
+ * @dot11MeshTTL: the value of TTL field set at a source mesh STA
+ * @element_ttl: the value of TTL field set at a mesh STA for path selection
+ * elements
+ * @auto_open_plinks: whether we should automatically open peer links when we
+ * detect compatible mesh peers
+ * @dot11MeshNbrOffsetMaxNeighbor: the maximum number of neighbors to
+ * synchronize to for 11s default synchronization method
+ * @dot11MeshHWMPmaxPREQretries: the number of action frames containing a PREQ
+ * that an originator mesh STA can send to a particular path target
+ * @path_refresh_time: how frequently to refresh mesh paths in milliseconds
+ * @min_discovery_timeout: the minimum length of time to wait until giving up on
+ * a path discovery in milliseconds
+ * @dot11MeshHWMPactivePathTimeout: the time (in TUs) for which mesh STAs
+ * receiving a PREQ shall consider the forwarding information from the
+ * root to be valid. (TU = time unit)
+ * @dot11MeshHWMPpreqMinInterval: the minimum interval of time (in TUs) during
+ * which a mesh STA can send only one action frame containing a PREQ
+ * element
+ * @dot11MeshHWMPperrMinInterval: the minimum interval of time (in TUs) during
+ * which a mesh STA can send only one Action frame containing a PERR
+ * element
+ * @dot11MeshHWMPnetDiameterTraversalTime: the interval of time (in TUs) that
+ * it takes for an HWMP information element to propagate across the mesh
+ * @dot11MeshHWMPRootMode: the configuration of a mesh STA as root mesh STA
+ * @dot11MeshHWMPRannInterval: the interval of time (in TUs) between root
+ * announcements are transmitted
+ * @dot11MeshGateAnnouncementProtocol: whether to advertise that this mesh
+ * station has access to a broader network beyond the MBSS. (This is
+ * missnamed in draft 12.0: dot11MeshGateAnnouncementProtocol set to true
+ * only means that the station will announce others it's a mesh gate, but
+ * not necessarily using the gate announcement protocol. Still keeping the
+ * same nomenclature to be in sync with the spec)
+ * @dot11MeshForwarding: whether the Mesh STA is forwarding or non-forwarding
+ * entity (default is TRUE - forwarding entity)
+ * @rssi_threshold: the threshold for average signal strength of candidate
+ * station to establish a peer link
+ * @ht_opmode: mesh HT protection mode
+ *
+ * @dot11MeshHWMPactivePathToRootTimeout: The time (in TUs) for which mesh STAs
+ * receiving a proactive PREQ shall consider the forwarding information to
+ * the root mesh STA to be valid.
+ *
+ * @dot11MeshHWMProotInterval: The interval of time (in TUs) between proactive
+ * PREQs are transmitted.
+ * @dot11MeshHWMPconfirmationInterval: The minimum interval of time (in TUs)
+ * during which a mesh STA can send only one Action frame containing
+ * a PREQ element for root path confirmation.
