[PATCH 23/35] iwlwifi: mvm: Change beacon filter enablement condition

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

 



From: Alexander Bondar <alexander.bondar@xxxxxxxxx>

Enable beacon filter only if at least one beacon from candidate
AP is received before or after association. Check this condition before
enabling BF upon secured association completion. Add BF enablement to
mac80211 event that indicates beacon is received after association.
Too early beacon filtering enablement can lead to disconnection due to
missing AP's beacon after association.
