|
These books attempt to give a description of the various subsystems
|
||
|
|
that play a role in 802.11 wireless networking in Linux. Since these
|
||
|
|
books are for kernel developers they attempts to document the
|
||
|
|
structures and functions used in the kernel as well as giving a
|
||
|
|
higher-level overview.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The reader is expected to be familiar with the 802.11 standard as
|
||
|
|
published by the IEEE in 802.11-2007 (or possibly later versions).
|
||
|
|
References to this standard will be given as "802.11-2007 8.1.5".
