[PATCH v3] mac80211: Call commit() on channel setting

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

 



This calls commit() on all logical interfaces of a physical interface, if the channel of it is changed. Before it works as it should, I must fix the joining process of STA and IBSS a little, which I will make tomorrow.

This version call it only in the wireless extensions, because the handling in nl80211 must discussed more, but I think in the case of wext it is the right way.
