No, it's not unnecessary. In London, we said that we wanted the (userspace) MLME to be controllable via nl80211 from userspace. Hence, we need API to do DLS setup/teardown because the (userspace) MLME is not going to be the program making the decision about DLS and we explicitly said that we want the MLME to be controllable via nl80211 no matter where it lives. johannes --=-CeTQRiAMkj6Eg92Uj6nl Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Johannes Berg (powerbook) iD8DBQBGc9c2/ETPhpq3jKURAirgAJ9JUTBGjftsYb4RODTFWY6xAQ+F8gCeKO49 +HUyJ57CZGuCpJ/KB5IAMAU= =xHKZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-CeTQRiAMkj6Eg92Uj6nl--
