[PATCH 1/7] cfg80211: More error messages for key addition failures

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

 



These were helpful while working with extensions to NL80211_CMD_NEW_KEY,
so add more explicit error reporting for additional cases that can fail
while that command is being processed.
