In file driver_nl80211.c there are some function calls near line 4524 to register action frame.
 
I think it can be used to send or receive action frame.
 
 
 
Snippet:
 
/* FT Action frames */
if (nl80211_register_action_frame(bss, (u8 *) "\x06", 1) < 0)
            ret = -1;
else
            drv->capa.key_mgmt |= WPA_DRIVER_CAPA_KEY_MGMT_FT |
                        WPA_DRIVER_CAPA_KEY_MGMT_FT_PSK;
 
/* WNM - BSS Transition Management Request */
if (nl80211_register_action_frame(bss, (u8 *) "\x0a\x07", 2) < 0)
            ret = -1;
/* WNM-Sleep Mode Response */
if (nl80211_register_action_frame(bss, (u8 *) "\x0a\x11", 2) < 0)
            ret = -1;
 
 
But what is the second parameter in nl80211_register_action_frame() function?
 
I thought it could be the action frame ID but I don’t really know it.
