MEMBERS
channel
- channel this BSS is on
scan_width
- width of the control channel
ies
- the information elements (Note that there is no guarantee that these are well-formed!); this is a pointer to either the beacon_ies or proberesp_ies depending on whether Probe Response frame has been received. It is always non-NULL.
beacon_ies
- the information elements from the last Beacon frame (implementation note: if hidden_beacon_bss is set this struct doesn't own the beacon_ies, but they're just pointers to the ones from the hidden_beacon_bss struct)
proberesp_ies
- the information elements from the last Probe Response frame
hidden_beacon_bss
- in case this BSS struct represents a probe response from a BSS that hides the SSID in its beacon, this points to the BSS struct that holds the beacon data. beacon_ies is still valid, of course, and points to the same data as hidden_beacon_bss->beacon_ies in that case.
signal
- signal strength value (type depends on the wiphy's signal_type)
beacon_interval
- the beacon interval as from the frame
capability
- the capability field in host byte order
bssid[ETH_ALEN]
- BSSID of the BSS
priv[0]
- private area for driver use, has at least wiphy->bss_priv_size bytes
DESCRIPTION
This structure describes a BSS (which may also be a mesh network) for use in scan results and similar.
