From 7406353d43c8e2faf478721e87aeb6f2f9685de0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Antonio Quartulli Date: Mon, 19 May 2014 21:53:21 +0200 Subject: cfg80211: implement cfg80211_get_station cfg80211 API Implement and export the new cfg80211_get_station() API. This utility can be used by other kernel modules to obtain detailed information about a given wireless station. It will be in particular useful to batman-adv which will implement a wireless rate based metric.
