The description of NL80211_CMD_ROAM indicated possibility for a
request to roam issued by user-space. However, it also states that
as not being implemented right now. This has been so since commit
b23aa676ab9d ("cfg80211: connect/disconnect API") added in 2009.
So it seems safe to assume it will not be added any time soon and
thus remove it.Signed-off-by: Arend van Spriel <arend.vanspr...@broadcom.com> --- include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h | 15 +++++++-------- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h b/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h index 1eaa340..47053c8 100644 --- a/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h +++ b/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h @@ -546,14 +546,13 @@ * authentication/association or not receiving a response from the AP. * Non-zero %NL80211_ATTR_STATUS_CODE value is indicated in that case as * well to remain backwards compatible. - * @NL80211_CMD_ROAM: request that the card roam (currently not implemented), - * sent as an event when the card/driver roamed by itself. - * When used as an event, and the driver roamed in a network that requires - * 802.1X authentication, %NL80211_ATTR_PORT_AUTHORIZED should be set - * if the 802.1X authentication was done by the driver or if roaming was - * done using Fast Transition protocol (in which case 802.1X authentication - * is not needed).
