[PATCH 10/15] ath9k: Pause other virtual wiphys on channel change

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

 



For now, allow channel changes immediately and just force the other
virtual wiphys to paused state. This is needed to allow
mac80211-controlled scan to control channel changes.
