Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 3/4] cfg80211: Accept multiple RSSI thresholds for CQM
Date: Wed, 04 Jan 2017 16:53:30 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1483545210.7312.17.camel@sipsolutions.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20161212015213.21323-3-andrew.zaborowski@intel.com> (sfid-20161212_025242_049227_EF1C6F2B)

Should userspace really just get -EOPNOTSUPP back?

Also, this whole business with using an array in the existing
NL80211_ATTR_CQM_RSSI_THOLD is not very backward compatible, because an
old kernel would interpret this as just a single value (the first one
in your array) - ignoring entirely the fact that you requested
multiple.

Thus, you either need an nl80211 protocol feature bit (enum
nl80211_protocol_features) or a new attribute, or so, I think.

You definitely need error checking here :)
