Currently, tcpdump displays 802.11 control frames as "type#4" and
doesn't give more information than that.
This diff makes tcpdump show the subtype of such frames, and pretty-print
a few subtypes in verbose mode. There are more subtypes but these can
be pretty-printed later.
This can be tested with:
ifconfig iwn0 mediaopt monitor up
tcpdump -n -i iwn0 -y IEEE802_11_RADIO -v -s 1500 type ctl
Whether such frames can be seen depends on the driver's RX filter
settings in monitor mode. Another driver I've tested with is zyd(4).
ok?
