This includes fine timing measurement (FTM) as well as something we call angle of arrival (AOA) which measures azimuth and elevation. > Initially we implemented it internally using vendor commands but we would like to upstream it using standard nl80211 API. > I noticed a patch you sent some time ago (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/7790701/) for adding fine timing measurement support to nl80211, it looks like a good baseline though we do have few issues with it... However I did not see any comments or response on this patch. Can you please update if you plan on eventually submitting this patch? You can find several FTM related patches in backport-iwlwifi repo on kernel.org. See link to git log of nl80211.h there [1].
