[PATCH V2 RFC 2/2] brcmfmac: support removing AP interfaces with "interface_remove"

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

 



New firmwares (e.g. 10.10.69.36 for BCM4366) support "interface_remove"
for removing interfaces. Try to use this method on cfg80211 request. In
case of older firmwares (e.g. 7.35.177.56 for BCM43602 as I tested) this
will just result in firmware rejecting command and this won't change any
behavior.
