Currently ftm_responder parameter in hostapd.conf is only used for fine timing measurement (FTM) capability advertisement and actual control of the functionality is with low-level device/driver. This leads to confusion to the user when the capability advertisement is different from actual FTM responder functionality.
For example, FTM responder capability advertisement is set to 'enabled', but the functionality is disabled or not supported by the driver. The patch set allows userspace to enable FTM responder functionality with the addition of new Netlink flag attribute NL80211_ATTR_FTM_RESPONDER with configurable lci/civic ocation parameters. Also extended feature flag is added for the drivers to advertise the support. Setting the flag to enable FTM responder would imply that AP responds to all FTM requests. Default is considered to be disabled. changes in V3: - fixed the ambiguous ftm responder disable case to be not supported changes in V2: - updated version number - rebased patches Johannes Berg, Pradeep Kumar Chitrapu (1): cfg80211: support FTM responder configuration/statistics David Spinadel, Johannes Berg, Pradeep Kumar Chitrapu (1): mac80211: support FTM responder configuration/statistics Pradeep Kumar Chitrapu (1): ath10k: Add support to configure ftm responder role drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.h | 1 + drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/mac.c | 29 ++++++++ drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/wmi.c | 4 ++ drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/wmi.h | 10 +++ include/net/cfg80211.h | 66 ++++++++++++++++++ include/net/mac80211.h | 13 ++++ include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h | 81 +++++++++++++++++++++ net/mac80211/cfg.c | 84 ++++++++++++++++++++++ net/mac80211/driver-ops.h | 16 +++++ net/mac80211/trace.h | 23 ++++++ net/mac80211/util.c | 3 + net/wireless/nl80211.c | 124 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- net/wireless/rdev-ops.h | 15 ++++ net/wireless/trace.h | 44 ++++++++++++ 14 files changed, 508 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) -- 1.9.1 _______________________________________________ ath10k mailing list ath10k@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/ath10k
