Joining a PAN officially goes by associating with a coordinator. This coordinator may have been discovered thanks to the beacons it sent in the past. Add support to the MAC layer for these associations, which require: - Sending an association request - Receiving an association response The association response contains the association status, eventually a reason if the association was unsuccessful, and finally a short address that we should use for intra-PAN communication from now on, if we required one (which is the default, and not yet configurable).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
