Please avoid using editors that convert tabs to whitespace. Probably also need to account for existing IEEE80211_SCAN_MATCH_SSID behavior...? Still, the general idea looks fine and I'd really like to make wpa_supplicant and mac80211 work together with hidden APs. I'll fix-up the patch and post it as a follow-up to this message... John P.S.

I think it should be done regardless of mode. johannes [-- Attachment #2: This is a digitally signed message part --] [-- Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 828 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
