Detailed Description

Function Documentation

net80211_netdev_open()

int net80211_netdev_open ( struct net_device * netdev )

static

Open 802.11 device and start association.

Parameters

netdev

Wrapping network device

Return values

rc	Return status code

This sets up a default conservative set of channels for probing, and starts the auto-association task unless the NET80211_NO_ASSOC flag is set in the wrapped 802.11 device's state field.

net80211_netdev_close()

void net80211_netdev_close ( struct net_device * netdev )

static

Close 802.11 device.

Parameters

netdev

Wrapping network device.

If the association task is running, this will stop it.

net80211_netdev_transmit()

int net80211_netdev_transmit ( struct net_device * netdev, struct io_buffer * iobuf )

static

Transmit packet on 802.11 device.

Parameters

netdev	Wrapping network device
iobuf	I/O buffer

Return values

rc	Return status code

If encryption is enabled for the currently associated network, the packet will be encrypted prior to transmission.
