[PATCH] cfg80211: return -ENOENT when stopping sched_scan while not running

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

 



If we try to stop a scheduled scan while it is not running, we should
return -ENOENT instead of simply ignoring the command and returning
success.  This is more consistent with other parts of the code.
