Subject: mrv8k vs. mac80211
Date: Tue, 13 May 2008 12:00:21 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1210694421.24737.19.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
Hi,
mrv8k has commands that should be sent before a scan is started, and
after a scan has finished. There aren't really pre/post scan hooks in
mac80211, though there certainly could be without too much trouble. The
other possibility is to inspect the filter flags when
ops->configure_filter gets called, since FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC gets
flipped before and after the scan. But that seems ugly and unstable.
Any objections to adding ops->pre_scan and ops->post_scan hooks? Or
should I just use the configure_filter hack... or is there a better
way?
Dan
