[PATCH] rt2x00: Fix beacon de-synchronization while update beacon

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

 



From: Igor Perminov <igor.perminov@xxxxxxxx>

When beacon is being updated to refresh TIM (AP mode), beacon frames are
de-synchronizing (i.e. two neighbor beacon frames - before and after
update - are being transmitted with a wrong time interval).
That is because xxx_write_beacon should disable beacon generation only
while beacon data are being uploaded to the device, but it should not
disable the beacon clock.
