From 18a8365992a8041aa178ae9ad5f0d951d0457230 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2009 12:12:05 +0200 Subject: cfg80211: introduce scan IE limit attribute This patch introduces a new attribute for a wiphy that tells userspace how long the information elements added to a probe request frame can be at most. It also updates the at76 to advertise that it cannot support that, and, for now until I can fix that, iwlwifi too. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
