bcm4329 background scanning

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

 



Hi,

I was looking at bcm4329 driver to understand how scanning is happening ?

I have two questions,
1. Does bcm4329 supports background scanning ?

from looking at the code, it looks like NO

2. Then when I am trying to connect from my Android phone to WiFi (which uses bcm4329 driver), it connects automatically to
     preconfigured APs. I do not see any code which initiates scanning ?

     Also is this related to patch here, [force scan when driver is loaded]
     https://www.codeaurora.org/gitweb/quic/le/?p=kernel/msm.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=135bb396901003c7644bfc6004edec1f413b973a

I am also not able to understand the patch as well. I do not see where it is initiating the scan.
However, I am new to wireless driver things and may be my questions may sound very basic.

Thanks,
Viral
