I am sending along 3 patches to add support for user space applications to register for authentication frames on adhoc interfaces. These are revisions to a previous patch that I submitted to accomplish the same thing. Patch 1/3 adds support for tracking whether userspace applications are registered for authentication frames received by an adhoc interface. This count is used in Patch 2/3 to determine if an "open system" authentication frame is sent when a new station joins an adhoc network. Patch 2/3 adds support for checking the registration count before sending out "open system" authentication frames when a new station joins an adhoc network. If there are no userspace applications registered for the authentication frames then an "open system" authentication frame is broadcast. Patch 3/3 sets the necessary flags to allow userspace applications to register for authentication frames on adhoc interfaces. frames. As I've said before, I'm still new to this process so I look forward to your feedback on improving.
