[PATCH 01/14] cfg80211: consolidate passive-scan and no-ibss flags

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

 



These two flags are used for the same purpose, just
combine them into a no-ir flag to annotate no initiating
radiation is allowed.

The way we deal with the consolidation is we rename
the passive scan flag to no-ir, and redefine no-ibss
to the no-ir flag. Old userspace sending us the no-ibss
flag will now be treated in-kernel as a no-ir flag. If
a channel has the no-ir flag we will send userspace both
the no-ir flag and the no-ibss flag to help with older
userspace. New userspace can just upgrade to treat only
the no-ir flag as when one will be populated the other
will be too.
