I'm not actively working on this at the moment, but I do have plans on doing something on this area. The current implementation uses wpa_supplicant to take care of the roaming for both cases of ieee80211_sta.c being used (i.e., management frames processed in kernel) and user-space MLME (management frames in user space). The trigger for roaming is certainly not optimal; roaming process is started only after losing connection, but roaming itself should work. I will be most likely working with the user space MLME code in wpa_supplicant, i.e., there won't be much changes in the d80211 stack side. The changes there would more likely be in the area of providing some generic operations to help scanning and reporting current signal strength (etc.) to use space. The main changes in roaming logic would be wpa_supplicant. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
