The Steering Request flags received in the 1905 Client Steering Request message
(e.g., the abridged flag) were not matching the flags used in the 802.11v BTM
Request. During inspection of the prplmesh agent, it was observed that these
flags were never forwarded to pwhm.
This change aligns the bitmask construction with the expected 802.11v layout
and ensures all relevant flags are passed correctly to pwhm.

prplMesh Agent
The prplMesh Agent implements a Multi-AP v1.0 certifiable agent (work in progress).
Build
Build system is CMAKE, and supports RDKB and UGW cross compilation builds. Building natively (Linux only) is partially supported only for development process. Some of the components are skipped / built as stubs in this mode.
Run agent on Linux
Running the agent on Linux allows easier development process without the need for real hardware. Instead, mac80211_hwsim can be used to simulate WLAN radios. A dummy bridge named br-lan must also exist since the agent uses the bridge MAC as the MultiAP AL-MAC. Last, the controller needs to run either on the same host or in another host with L2 connectivity.
Currently, this mode was tested on an Ubuntu18.04 with hwsim, the agent was compiled to UDS mode.
Prerequisites
- Interface exists for every slave in the configuration file
- bridge named br-lan (can be empty)
- agent, controller, common and framework built natively (see prplMesh-tools for build instructions)
One time setup modprobe mac80211_hwsim; brctl addbr br-lan
Build all components cd tools; python3 ./maptools.py build all
Running and debugging
Run the controller sudo ./build/install/bin/beerocks_controller
Run the agent sudo ./build/install/bin/beerocks_agent
Run the cli to see network map sudo ./build/install/bin/beerocks_cli -c bml_conn_map
