[PATCH 12/13] mac80211: disallow band-switch during CSA

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

If the AP advertises a band switch during CSA, we will not have
the right information to continue working with it, since it will
likely (have to) change its capabilities and we don't track any
capability changes at all. Additionally, we store e.g. supported
rates per band, and that information would become invalid.

Since this is a fringe scenario, just disconnect explicitly.
