[PATCHv2 2/3] mac80211: enable DFS for IBSS mode

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

 



Allow changing to DFS channels if the channel is available for
beaconing and userspace controls DFS operation.

Channel switch announcement from other stations on DFS channels will
be interpreted as radar event. These channels will then be marked as
unvailable.
