Subject: [PATCH v2 09/13] station: roam blacklist BSS when a roam is requested
Date: Mon, 24 Mar 2025 07:15:34 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250324141538.144578-10-prestwoj@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250324141538.144578-1-prestwoj@gmail.com>

If the BSS is requesting IWD roam elsewhere add this BSS to the
blacklist using BLACKLIST_REASON_ROAM_REQUESTED. This will lower
the chances of IWD roaming/connecting back to this BSS in the
future.

In addition we also needed to update the roam_bss sorting to use
__scan_bss_rank_compare so we sort based on the new groupings
rather than only rank/rssi.
