[PATCH 06/27] mac80211: fix beacon enable more

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

 



Hopefully the last required fix ... disable beaconing
only on beaconing interfaces, and thus avoid calling
ieee80211_if_config for purely virtual interfaces
(those driver doesn't know about).
