Completed a patch (imr-kickmac-patch.diff) which implements a private ioctl to disassociate with the given MAC address.

Called with: iwpriv <interface> kickmac <MAC address to kick>

A disassociation frame will be sent to the station if it is associated (with an unspecified reason). Nothing stops the station reassociating immediately, but this seems to mirror other typical implementations of this functionality.

Not having much luck. Attached imr-kickmac-patch-r2.diff which does the same as imr-kickmac-patch.diff but returns any error codes. Accidently attached imr-renaming-patch-r2.diff in error, it is not associated with this ticket in any way.

Thanks, Ian. Committed your patch in r1439.

The documentation needs to be updated, so that this new private ioctl is properly documented. Two places come to my mind at this time:

  1. UserDocs/iwpriv
  2. trunk/docs/users-guide.tex and trunk/docs/users-guide.pdf

Any volunteers? Should be a trivial task.

Updated the userdocs page with the relevant info.
