[PATCH 5/6] driver_nl80211: use nl80211 for probe req/resp

Johannes Berg johannes
Thu Sep 16 06:03:15 PDT 2010


From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg at intel.com>

The new nl80211 API means we don't need to
use monitor interfaces. This means that the
p2p implementation now requires a kernel
that has support for generic mgmt (not just
action) transmission.
