[PATCHv4 1/4] mac80211: make mgmt_tx accept a NULL channel

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

 



From: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

cfg80211 passes a NULL channel to mgmt_tx if the frame has
to be sent on the one currently in use by the device.
Make the implementation of mgmt_tx correctly handle this
case. Fail if offchan is required.
