Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: allow scanning on specified frequencies when using wext-compatibility
Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2009 13:09:54 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200909091309.55068.hs4233@mail.mn-solutions.de> (raw)
Handles the case when SIOCSIWSCAN specified iw_scan_req.num_channels and
iw_scan_req.channels[].
