Subject: nl80211: Make use of driver's capability to detect inactive stations
X-Git-Tag: hostap_2_0~792
X-Git-Url: http://www.project-moonshot.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a0133ee1c96db7436179d15f64e18e5165c4ab8c;p=mech_eap.git

nl80211: Make use of driver's capability to detect inactive stations

When drivers advertise their capability to free up inactive
stations based on ap_max_inactivity, send the inactivity period
timeout to driver in NL80211_ATTR_INACTIVITY_TIMEOUT. This
introduces a WPA_DRIVER_FLAGS (WPA_DRIVER_FLAGS_INACTIVITY_TIMER)
so that the inactivity period will be sent only when this capability
bit is set.
