[PATCH] mac80211: don't probe if we have probe response

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

 



We can now easily determine whether we already
have probe response information for the BSS we
are asked to connect to, in which case there's
little point in probing the BSS again.
