[PATCH 1/9] brcmfmac: ignore 11d configuration errors

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

 



From: Hante Meuleman <hante.meuleman@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

802.11d is not always supported by firmware anymore. Currently the
AP configuration of 11d will cause an abort if the ioctl set is
failing. This behavior is not correct and the error should be
ignored.
