[PATCH] AP: Avoid disabling HT/VHT/HE/EHT during CSA

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Ilan Peer <ilan.peer@xxxxxxxxx>

During CSA an AP should not disable its HT/VHT/HE/EHT capabilities
as it is not allowed by the IEEE80211 specification.

- Modify the CSA flow to preserve the current HT/VHT/HE/EHT
  capabilities allowing only to add additional ones.
- Update the DFS CSA flow to also preserve the HT/VHT/HE/EHT
  capabilities.

Modify one of the hwsim tests that verified that VHT capabilities
are disabled during CSA, to verify that they are kept.
