description="""
Add socket options to NetBSD for controlling WLAN transmit parameters like
transmit power, fragmentation threshold, RTS/CTS threshold, bitrate, 802.11e
access category, on a per-socket and per-packet basis.  To set transmit
parameters, pass radiotap headers using sendmsg(2) and setsockopt(2).

This project is on hold due to the [[conversion project|projects/project/Convert_a_Wi-Fi_driver_to_the_new_Wi-Fi_stack]] needing to be completed first.
