30  * DOC: Frame transmission/registration support
31  *
32  * Frame transmission and registration support exists to allow userspace
33  * entities such as wmediumd to receive and process all broadcasted
34  * frames from a mac80211_hwsim radio device.
35  *
36  * This allow user space applications to decide if the frame should be
37  * dropped or not and implement a wireless medium simulator at user space.
38  *
39  * Registration is done by sending a register message to the driver and
40  * will be automatically unregistered if the user application doesn't
41  * responds to sent frames.
42  * Once registered the user application has to take responsibility of
43  * broadcasting the frames to all listening mac80211_hwsim radio
44  * interfaces.
45  *
46  * For more technical details, see the corresponding command descriptions
47  * below.
