It's in the 2.6.13 tree, and what the patch includes is roughly the stuff that in-tree host and peripheral authentication will need. The "need" is just to be proactive about sharing basic interfaces. That is, given a device to program (e.g. write your own using Linux and a net2280) it's what you'd combine with AES code in the crypto package to negotiate keys and store them in the Linux secure keystore. It doesn't include stuff that I think would only be used inside a radio adapter driver. Such hardware is still under development. :) - Dave ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
