From 5ab92e7fe49ad74293b50fb9e6f25be5521e2f68 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rajkumar Manoharan Date: Thu, 11 Apr 2019 13:47:24 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: add support to probe unexercised mesh link Adding support to allow mesh HWMP to measure link metrics on unexercised direct mesh path by sending some data frames to other mesh points which are not currently selected as a primary traffic path but only 1 hop away. The absence of the primary path to the chosen node makes it necessary to apply some form of marking on a chosen packet stream so that the packets can be properly steered to the selected node for testing, and not by the regular mesh path lookup.
