[PATCH v2 3/3] wifi: mac80211: remove only own link stations during stop_ap

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

 



Currently, whenever AP link is brought down via ieee80211_stop_ap()
function, all stations connected to the sdata are flushed. However, in case
of MLO there is a requirement to flush only stations connected to that link
and not all.

For instance - Consider 2 GHz and 5 GHz are AP MLD. Now due to some reason
5 GHz link of this AP is going down (link removal or any other case). All
stations connected, even legacy stations connected to 2 GHz link AP would
also be flushed. Flushing of other link stations is not desireable.

Fix this issue by passing self link ID to sta_flush() function. This would
then only remove the stations which are still using the passed link
ID as their link sta. Other stations will not be affected.
