From 8860020e0be1f03d83dc9e9e93e18a4ddbe01038 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Mon, 13 Feb 2012 15:17:18 +0100 Subject: cfg80211: restructure AP/GO mode API The AP/GO mode API isn't very clearly defined, it has "set beacon" and "new beacon" etc. Modify the API to the following: * start AP -- all settings * change beacon -- new beacon data * stop AP -- stop AP mode operation This also reflects in the nl80211 API, rename the commands there correspondingly (but keep the old names for compatibility.) Overall, this makes it much clearer what's going on in the API. Kalle developed the ath6kl changes, I created the rest of the patch.
