[PATCH] cfg80211: refuse authenticating to same BSSID twice

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

 



It is possible that there are different BSS structs with
the same BSSID, but we cannot authenticate with multiple
of them them because we need the BSSID to be unique for
deauthenticating/disassociating.
