Subject: [PATCH v4 2/5] mac80211: track beacons separately from the rx path activity
Date: Sun, 22 Mar 2009 21:57:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090322195714.26460.4434.stgit@tikku> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090322195619.26460.48292.stgit@tikku>
From: Kalle Valo <kalle.valo@nokia.com>
Separate beacon and rx path tracking in preparation for the beacon filtering
support. At the same time change ieee80211_associated() to look a bit simpler.
Probe requests are now sent only after IEEE80211_PROBE_IDLE_TIME, which
is now set to 60 seconds.
Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kalle.valo@nokia.com>
