Question about sending beacons

[Mark Ryden]

Hello,
   I am new to hostapd;   I am using hostapd with nl80211.
As far as I know, an Access Point should send something like 10
beacons per second.
  My question is: which method is called to send beacons ?  I want to
delve into the code a bit.

Rgs,
Mark Ryden
