Hi, Here's another version of my scheduled scan patches. I think these are now good enough. I applied all comments by Johannes and added some improvements. These are the main differences from RFCv2: mac80211: --------- * mac80211 checks if the driver has an op->sched_scan_start and sets the WIPHY_FLAG_SUPPORTS_SCHED_SCAN flag accordingly; * fixed a typo; * moved drv_sched_scan_results to api_sched_scan_results; * removed SCAN_SCHED_SCANNING as a scan_attribute and moved it to a separate local boolean, so that it doesn't interfere with normal scan scenarios; * there was on comment that the sched_scan was "eating" beacons for the whole time when it was scanning, but this doesn't apply anymore because of commit b23b025fe246f3acc2988eb6d400df34c27cb8ae changed the code so that beacons are passed up if they're on the operating channel (see ieee80211_scan_rx()); * fixed allocation failure bug when allocating sched_scan_ies; * removed lock in ieee80211_sched_scan_results(); * don't return a value in sched_scan_stop; cfg80211: --------- * fixed documentation in nl80211 so that it's clear that if an empty SSID is passed (broadcast), we do broadcast probe_reqs and if no SSID is passed, we do a passive scan; * removed max_sched_scan_ssids, now we use max_scan_ssids instead; * added __cfg80211_stop_sched_scan() and call that from nl80211_stop_sched_scan(), wdev_cleanup_work() and NETDEV_GOING_DOWN; * removed unnecessary dev_hold() in nl80211_start_sched_scan(); * added the NL80211_CMD_SCHED_SCAN_STOPPED event and an interface for the driver to stop the scan by itself; * send a NL80211_CMD_SCHED_SCAN_STOPPED event instead of a NL80211_CMD_STOP_SCHED_SCAN when the scan is stopped by a NL80211_CMD_STOP_SCHED_SCAN command; * don't return a value in sched_scan_stop; * added a new patch to include the scan interval; * a few minor cleanups. There are still more things on my TODO list, but they're mostly improvements and it will be much easier to add them step-by-step after this part is included. This version is already functional and ready to be used. ;) Please review and let me know if there are still some problems for inclusion. Cheers, Luca.
