[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH] iwinfo: add BSS load element to scan result

David Bauer mail at david-bauer.net
Fri Jan 31 08:45:03 EST 2020


This adds support for the BSS load information element. With this patch,
the BSS load information is visible when using the CLI as well as when
accessing scan results using the LUA binding.
