[PATCH] mac80211: ieee80211_sta_set_bssid should call config_interface()

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

 



From: Samuel Ortiz <samuel.ortiz@xxxxxxxxx>

With commit e32b1b9a33759e8a83ac566c4c43f23ed5d6343b, we end up not calling
config_interface() when we're in STA, but not Ad-Hoc. This breaks several
drivers, and the fix is to get ieee80211_sta_set_bssid() to call
ieee80211_if_config() again.
