Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: decrease IBSS creation latency
Date: Wed, 04 Jun 2008 13:59:34 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1212602374.20764.22.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
Sufficient scans (at least 2 or 3) should have been done within 7
seconds to find an existing IBSS to join. This should improve IBSS
creation latency; and since IBSS merging is still in effect, shouldn't
have detrimental effects on eventual IBSS convergence.
