[PATCH v8 1/5] wifi: nl80211: fixes to FILS discovery updates

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

 



Add a new flag 'update' which is set to true during start_ap() for
only if one of the following two conditions are met:
- Userspace passed an empty nested attribute which indicates that
the feature should be disabled and templates deleted.
- Userspace passed all the parameters for the nested attribute.

Existing configuration will not be changed while the flag
remains false.

Add similar changes for unsolicited broadcast probe response
transmission.
