From 4a6ecd35f95b0e29b3470ca16772a1cc89607c97 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bob Copeland Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2018 15:48:52 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: mesh: advertise gates in mesh formation The Connected to Mesh Gate subfield (802.11-2016 9.4.2.98.7) in the Mesh Formation Info field is currently unset. This field may be useful in determining which MBSSes to join or which mesh STAs to peer with. If this mesh STA is a gate, by having turned on mesh gate announcements, or if we have a path to one (e.g. by having received RANNs) then set this bit to 1.
