[PATCH 4/4] ath9k: Fix channel context creation

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

 



From: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

If a new context is being added in addition to the current one,
then send the ASSIGN event to abort a running scan since
the addition of a context is usually followed by VIF
assignment and further operations.
