wpa_supplicant/mlme.c Doubt

[Francisco Cuesta]

Hi Jouni,

I have been reading the file mac80211/mlme.c trying to find out where
that definiton was made, and I found  the following definition

#define IEEE80211_AUTH_TIMEOUT (HZ / 5)

Could you tell me what is the variable HZ defined and where it does come from?

Thanks,

regards!
