From the code:
static const struct ieee80211_iface_limit if_limits[] = {
{ .max = 2, .types = BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_STATION) |
BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_CLIENT) },
{ .max = 2, .types = BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_AP) |
BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_GO) },
};
static const struct ieee80211_iface_combination if_comb = {
.limits = if_limits,
.n_limits = ARRAY_SIZE(if_limits),
.max_interfaces = 2,
.num_different_channels = 1,
};
It has P2P support, but it is a mac80211 driver and it may need
P2P_DEVICE support as well. Johannes?
