H A D | feature.h | 01f69dfa Sun Jun 24 14:44:35 CDT 2018 Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl> brcmfmac: detect firmware support for monitor interface
Many/most of firmwares support creating monitor interface but only the most recent ones explicitly /announce/ it using a "monitor" entry in the list of capabilities.
Check for that entry and store internally info about monitor mode support using a new feature flag. Once we sort out all details of handling monitor interface it will be used when reporting available interfaces to the cfg80211.
Later some fallback detecion method may be added for older firmwares. For now just stick to the "monitor" capability which should be 100% reliable.
