[PATCH 03/18] wifi: mac80211: don't connect to an AP while it's in a CSA process

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

 



From: Ayala Beker <ayala.beker@xxxxxxxxx>

Connection to an AP that is running a CSA flow may end up with a
failure as the AP might change its channel during the connection
flow while we do not track the channel change yet.
Avoid that by rejecting a connection to such an AP.
