[PATCH 1/3] ath9k_htc: Add support for mesh interfaces

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

 



From: Javier Cardona <javier@xxxxxxxxxxx>

More specifically, enable AP-style beaconing on mesh
ifaces and change the hw capabilities to reflect mesh
support.

Coexistence with a virtual STA interface was tested as
working fine.

[rebase, add iface combinations]
