[RFC PATCH v1 1/4] ath6kl: Do not allow deleting station in IBSS mode.

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

 



In preparation of allowing userspace to explicitly reset station state
in IBSS mode, reject attempts to delete stations in IBSS mode with error
ENOTSUPP.

I do not know if the driver could possibly support this, so take the
safe route and reject it.
