However, I'm working with a half-soft-half-full-mac hardware (libertas). What I mean is that the generation of the low-level packets etc are all done by the firmware in the card (fullmac). However, issueing scans (for IBSS or Managed mode), selecting a proper AP from the scan result, associating etc are all commands that the PC has to send to the firmware. Some of this is not yet correctly working, e.g. when I kick out the WLAN card from the AP, then libertas just notifies this, but stays up ... it doesn't re-scan and re-associates. There are other scenarios where the current libertas code doesn't automatically re-scan/re-associate as well. All of this is included in net/mac80211/ieee80211_sta.c, but tightly coupled to mac80211 so that it is unusable for non-mac80211 cards.
