[PATCH 3/8] wl1271: Fix keep-alive related command error

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

 



From: Juuso Oikarinen <juuso.oikarinen@xxxxxxxxx>

The firmware does not like the host configuring the keep-alive after it has
been once configured after a join-operation. Instead, it will complain about
invalid parameters, which do not break functionality, but do not look nice
in the syslog either.

This patch prevents the complaints by only configuring the keep-alive once
for an association, after the first time join is performed with the correct
bssid.
