| <li>IEEE 802.11 wireless stack improvements: | <li>IEEE 802.11 wireless stack improvements: | ||
| <ul> | |||
| <li>Reduced usage of RTS frames improves overall throughput and latency. | |||
| <li>Improved transmit rate selection in the | |||
| <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwm.4">iwm(4)</a> driver. | |||
| <li>Improved radio hardware calibration in the | |||
| <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/athn.4">athn(4)</a> driver. | |||
| <li>The <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bwfm.4">bwfm(4)</a> driver now | |||
| provides more accurate device configuration information to userland. | |||
| <li>Added new routing socket message RTM_80211INFO to provide details | |||
| of 802.11 interface state changes to | |||
| <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhclient">dhclient(8)</a> and | |||
| <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/route">route(8)</a>. | |||
| <li>The autojoin feature will no longer connect to unknown open networks | |||
| by default. This behaviour must now be explicitly enabled with | |||
| <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig">ifconfig(8)</a>. | |||
| <li>The <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwn.4">iwn(4)</a> and | |||
| <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwm.4">iwm(4)</a> drivers will now | |||
| automatically try to connect to a network if the radio kill switch is | |||
| toggled to allow radio transmissions while the interface is marked UP. | |||
