So ... hostapd is also responsible for counting down the "count"? This didn't seem to be the case last I asked? Then why is it responsible for creating the CSA IE? Should that be in the kernel maybe? Or the IE be given to this command? And then maybe the post-switch beacon IEs should be given to the command as well, to avoid races as well as making it easier to manage this with smarter firmware (say full-MAC drivers)? Also, we already have an event to notify of an AP channel change, maybe that should be used? If not, why not? johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
