What is the general solution for 802.11s?
None yet.
I'm working on an embedded
design that would benefit from 11s support and I'd rather not have to
roll my own mesh implementation in user space.
Well, there is no mesh implementation that I'm aware of, you'll want to
stick it along with the userspace MLME into wpa_supplicant.
I'd also like to get an
idea of what kind of hardware I need to design onto my board given
that the 8388 is not available general consumption. My system has
plenty of power and CPU available so a softmac type 11s solution is
the most cost effective. It seems to me that the design of a software
based 11s stack should be coordinated with the 8388 firmware one.
It should, but afaik no one is really working on it either way.
