Parse user requests for sending beacons, start sending beacons at a regular pace. If needed, the pace can be updated with a new request. The process can also be interrupted at any moment. The page and channel must be changed beforehands if needed. Interval orders above 14 are reserved to tell a device it must answer BEACON_REQ coming from another device as part of an active scan procedure and this is not yet supported. A netlink "beacon request" structure is created to list the requirements. Mac layers may now implement the ->send_beacons() and ->stop_beacons() hooks.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
