[PATCH] mac80211: handle HW ROC expired properly

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

 



From: Ilan Peer <ilan.peer@xxxxxxxxx>

In case of HW ROC, when the driver reports that the ROC expired,
it is not sufficient to purge the ROCs based on the remaining
time, as it possible that the device finished the ROC session
before the actual requested duration.

To handle such cases, in case of ROC expired notification from
the driver, complete all the ROCs which are marked with hw_begun,
regardless of the remaining duration.
