Hello,
I'm trying to make different wifi roaming tests with the 802.11
amandments 802.11k and 802.11r.
I use the intel wifi chipset Intel Corporation Centrino Ultimate-N 6300
and two Aerohive Access Points AP141 (with both 802.11k and 802.11r
enabled).
With using wpa_supplicant (Version 2.5) and wpa_cli (Version 2.5) I was
able to connect and roam between the APs by entering the command "roam
<mac>" and actually an 802.11r roam was performed. Therefore the nl80211
and iwlwifi driver was used.
So fast roaming seems to work properly, but I faced troubles with Radio
Resource Management (802.11k)
Transmitting the command "neighbor_rep_request" in wpa_cli failed. I
checked to log files and found the following lines:
wlan0: Control interface command 'NEIGHBOR_REP_REQUEST'
RRM: No RRM in current connection.
and
RRM: Determining whether RRM can be used - device support: 0x0
RRM: Insufficient RRM support in driver - do not use RRM
Now my question would be how to enable RRM, maybe using the iw-command?
I could not find any documenation or examples according to RRM.
The tests were performed with Ubuntu and Linux Kernel 3.13.0-79.
I hope there is someone who can help me!
Thanks, Stefan Feirer

Look at https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/8421041/
If the suggestion of Johannes is the direction taken (which happens
quite often in mac8021..) then you'll get it.
