From ba6fbacf9c073effaedf0c52fe7e52e2baf67725 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jouni Malinen Date: Tue, 29 Mar 2016 13:53:27 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: Add option to specify previous BSSID for Connect command This extends NL80211_CMD_CONNECT to allow the NL80211_ATTR_PREV_BSSID attribute to be used similarly to way this was already allowed with NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE. This allows user space to request reassociation (instead of association) when already connected to an AP. This provides an option to reassociate within an ESS without having to disconnect and associate with the AP.
