Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: fix wext stats
Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2009 16:54:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1247237647.29747.0.camel@johannes.local> (raw)
Instead of using the wext BSSID which may be NULL if
you haven't explicitly set one, we should instead use
the current_bss pointer -- if that's NULL we aren't
connected anyway. Fixes missing signal quality output
reported to me internally at Intel.
