MEMBERS

bss

The BSS to associate with. If the call is successful the driver is given a reference that it must give back to cfg80211_send_rx_assoc or to cfg80211_assoc_timeout. To ensure proper refcounting, new association requests while already associating must be rejected.

ie

Extra IEs to add to (Re)Association Request frame or NULL

prev_bssid

previous BSSID, if not NULL use reassociate frame

ie_len

Length of ie buffer in octets

crypto

crypto settings

use_mfp

Use management frame protection (IEEE 802.11w) in this association

flags

See enum cfg80211_assoc_req_flags

ht_capa

HT Capabilities over-rides. Values set in ht_capa_mask will be used in ht_capa. Un-supported values will be ignored.

ht_capa_mask

The bits of ht_capa which are to be used.

vht_capa

VHT capability override

vht_capa_mask

VHT capability mask indicating which fields to use

DESCRIPTION
