Subject: [PATCH] Silence debug prints when using adhoc mode
Date: Sun, 23 May 2010 19:22:40 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100523162240.GZ19669@nalle> (raw)
This is flooded to syslog quite a few times when connecting to another
Linux box in adhoc mode. Syslog files fill up the disk fast:
$ dmesg | tail -10
[ 1986.772018] wlan0: No active IBSS STAs - trying to scan for other IBSS networks with same SSID (merge)
[ 1986.776149] wlan0: No active IBSS STAs - trying to scan for other IBSS networks with same SSID (merge)
[ 1986.780076] wlan0: No active IBSS STAs - trying to scan for other IBSS networks with same SSID (merge)
[ 1986.784020] wlan0: No active IBSS STAs - trying to scan for other IBSS networks with same SSID (merge)
[ 1986.788149] wlan0: No active IBSS STAs - trying to scan for other IBSS networks with same SSID (merge)

[ 1986.804186] wlan0: No active IBSS STAs - trying to scan for other IBSS networks with same SSID (merge)
[ 1986.808072] wlan0: No active IBSS STAs - trying to scan for other IBSS networks with same SSID (merge)
Tested on a Thinkpad T60 with Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan]
Network Connection (rev 02) running vanilla 2.6.34 kernel.
