[PATCH] mac80211: report CLOCK_BOOTTIME for scan results

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

This was requested by Android, and the appropriate cfg80211 API
had been added by Dmitry. Support it in mac80211, allowing drivers
to provide the timestamp.
