MEMBERS
channel
The channel to use or NULL if not specified (auto-select based on scan results)
bssid
The AP BSSID or NULL if not specified (auto-select based on scan results)
ssid
SSID
ssid_len
Length of ssid in octets
auth_type
Authentication type (algorithm)
ie
IEs for association request
ie_len
Length of assoc_ie in octets
privacy
indicates whether privacy-enabled APs should be used
mfp
indicate whether management frame protection is used
crypto
crypto settings
key
WEP key for shared key authentication
key_len
length of WEP key for shared key authentication
key_idx
index of WEP key for shared key authentication
flags
See enum cfg80211_assoc_req_flags
bg_scan_period
Background scan period in seconds or -1 to indicate that default value is to be used.
ht_capa
HT Capabilities over-rides. Values set in ht_capa_mask will be used in ht_capa. Un-supported values will be ignored.
ht_capa_mask
The bits of ht_capa which are to be used.

MEMBERS
bss
The BSS to associate with. If the call is successful the driver is given a reference that it must release, normally via a call to
cfg80211_send_rx_assoc, or, if association timed out, with a call to cfg80211_put_bss (in addition to calling
cfg80211_send_assoc_timeout)
ie
Extra IEs to add to (Re)Association Request frame or NULL
prev_bssid
previous BSSID, if not NULL use reassociate frame
ie_len
Length of ie buffer in octets
crypto
crypto settings
use_mfp
Use management frame protection (IEEE 802.11w) in this association
flags
See enum cfg80211_assoc_req_flags
ht_capa
HT Capabilities over-rides. Values set in ht_capa_mask will be used in ht_capa. Un-supported values will be ignored.
ht_capa_mask
The bits of ht_capa which are to be used.
vht_capa
VHT capability override
vht_capa_mask
VHT capability mask indicating which fields to use
DESCRIPTION
This structure provides information needed to complete IEEE 802.11 (re)association.
