<div>I know that the hostap use user space process to handle the athentication and association request frame.The process includes sending request frames to the user space and sending back the response frames to the kernel.
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>In the driver code, I found the following code in prism2_rx_p80211 function.It seems the kernel drops the frames, why?</div>
<div> </div>
<div> if (type == PRISM2_RX_MGMT && (fc & WLAN_FC_PVER)) {<br> printk(KERN_DEBUG "%s: dropped management frame with header "<br> "version %d\n", dev->name, fc & WLAN_FC_PVER);
<br> dev_kfree_skb_any(skb);<br> return 0;<br> }</div>
<div> </div>
<div>In hostapd, I found the function hostap_send_mgmt_frame() and they use send() to send their managemen response, but where the kernel accept the messages and complete station's management process?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Help me please!</div>

<div>Best regard</div>
