I believe it needs to at least support 4 address frames, which usually
requires firmware changes on fullmac cards, but fully softmac cards
(atheros, broadcom) probably would not.
.11s also introduces new frame types/subtypes that probably need to be
ACKed which usually the firmware won't do since it doesn't understand
those frame types/subtypes yet.
Daniel,  would the Zydas employees be interested in supplying us with
a MAC that would support the development of a software based 802.11s
stack?
