- Add support for Information Element (IE) decoding
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Several netlink attributes provide binary blobs representing IEs. Add
|
||||||
|
support for decoding them inline using the src/ie.c infrastructure.

- Subscribe to all nl80211 multicast groups at startup
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It seems the nlmon packets are limited to actual subscribed mutlicast
|
||||||
|
groups. To get a complete picture of all the nl80211 commands and
|
||||||
|
events, it is required that iwmon adds membership to all multicast
|
||||||
|
groups that the nl80211 lists.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This means that the netlink socket used for resolving nl80211 family
|
||||||
|
name needs to be kept option and actively processed since it will also
|
||||||
|
receive these multicast events. However the event itself can be dropped
|
||||||
|
since the one from nlmon with the proper kernel level timestamps should
|
||||||
|
be taken into account.

- Add support for receiving kernel side timestamps
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When packets are received from nlmon, they should be marked with an
|
||||||
|
appropiate timestamp. Enable SO_TIMESTAMP socket option.

- Colorize the command, response and event packets
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Use terminal colors to separate command, response and event packets
|
||||||
|
with different colors.
