From 2032f3b2f943256ff40df23182913dfc7e73ec6a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Pedersen Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2020 10:25:52 -0700 Subject: nl80211: support scan frequencies in KHz If the driver advertises NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_SCAN_FREQ_KHZ userspace can omit NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_FREQUENCIES in favor of an NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_FREQ_KHZ. To get scan results in KHz userspace must also set the NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_FREQ_KHZ. This lets nl80211 remain compatible with older userspaces while not requring and sending redundant (and potentially incorrect) scan frequency sets.
