MEMBERS

45       channel
46           The channel to use or NULL if not specified (auto-select based on
47           scan results)
48
49       channel_hint
50           The channel of the recommended BSS for initial connection or NULL
51           if not specified
52
53       bssid
54           The AP BSSID or NULL if not specified (auto-select based on scan
55           results)
56
57       bssid_hint
58           The recommended AP BSSID for initial connection to the BSS or NULL
59           if not specified. Unlike the bssid parameter, the driver is allowed
60           to ignore this bssid_hint if it has knowledge of a better BSS to
61           use.
62
63       ssid
64           SSID
65
66       ssid_len
67           Length of ssid in octets
68
69       auth_type
70           Authentication type (algorithm)
71
72       ie
73           IEs for association request
74
75       ie_len
76           Length of assoc_ie in octets
77
78       privacy
79           indicates whether privacy-enabled APs should be used
80
81       mfp
82           indicate whether management frame protection is used
83
84       crypto
85           crypto settings
86
87       key
88           WEP key for shared key authentication
89
90       key_len
91           length of WEP key for shared key authentication
92
93       key_idx
94           index of WEP key for shared key authentication
95
96       flags
97           See enum cfg80211_assoc_req_flags
98
99       bg_scan_period
100           Background scan period in seconds or -1 to indicate that default
101           value is to be used.
102
103       ht_capa
104           HT Capabilities over-rides. Values set in ht_capa_mask will be used
105           in ht_capa. Un-supported values will be ignored.
106
107       ht_capa_mask
108           The bits of ht_capa which are to be used.
109
110       vht_capa
111           VHT Capability overrides
112
113       vht_capa_mask
114           The bits of vht_capa which are to be used.
115
116       pbss
117           if set, connect to a PCP instead of AP. Valid for DMG networks.
118
119       bss_select
120           criteria to be used for BSS selection.
121
122       prev_bssid
123           previous BSSID, if not NULL use reassociate frame. This is used to
124           indicate a request to reassociate within the ESS instead of a
125           request do the initial association with the ESS. When included,
126           this is set to the BSSID of the current association, i.e., to the
127           value that is included in the Current AP address field of the
128           Reassociation Request frame.
129
130       fils_erp_username
131           EAP re-authentication protocol (ERP) username part of the NAI or
132           NULL if not specified. This is used to construct FILS wrapped data
133           IE.
134
135       fils_erp_username_len
136           Length of fils_erp_username in octets.
137
138       fils_erp_realm
139           EAP re-authentication protocol (ERP) realm part of NAI or NULL if
140           not specified. This specifies the domain name of ER server and is
141           used to construct FILS wrapped data IE.
142
143       fils_erp_realm_len
144           Length of fils_erp_realm in octets.
145
146       fils_erp_next_seq_num
147           The next sequence number to use in the FILS ERP messages. This is
148           also used to construct FILS wrapped data IE.
149
150       fils_erp_rrk
151           ERP re-authentication Root Key (rRK) used to derive additional keys
152           in FILS or NULL if not specified.
153
154       fils_erp_rrk_len
155           Length of fils_erp_rrk in octets.
156

158           indicates user-space supports and wants to use 802.1X driver
159           offload of 4-way handshake.
