From b92ab5d86dafc2b3733c5fdd5def40c8fe7ea7c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Fri, 4 Nov 2011 11:18:19 +0100 Subject: cfg80211: add event for unexpected 4addr frames The frames are used by AP/STA WDS mode, and hostapd needs to know when such a frame was received to set up the VLAN appropriately to allow using it.
