From 61fa713c751683da915fa0c1aa502be85822c357 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Holger Schurig Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2009 12:25:40 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: return channel noise via survey API This patch implements the NL80211_CMD_GET_SURVEY command and an get_survey() ops that a driver can implement. The goal of this command is to allow a drivers to report channel survey data (e.g. channel noise, channel occupation). For now, only the mechanism to report back channel noise has been implemented. In future, there will either be a survey-trigger command --- or the existing scan-trigger command will be enhanced. This will allow user-space to request survey for arbitrary channels. Note: any driver that cannot report channel noise should not report any value at all, e.g. made-up -92 dBm. Signed-off-by: Holger Schurig Signed-off-by: John W.
