Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] ath6kl: Unset IFF_LOWER_UP flag on AP mode leave.
Date: Mon,  4 Jul 2016 13:07:19 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160704110719.7694-4-plemagourou@aldebaran.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20160704110719.7694-1-plemagourou@aldebaran.com>

From: Pierre Le Magourou <plemagourou@aldebaran.com>

When disabling tethering after having enabled it, the ath6kl driver does
not set the IFF_LOWER_UP flag to 0 (carrier off) on the wlan interface.

The upper layers (eg. connman) are not notified of the tethering mode
status change. So, tethering can not be activated anymore.

This patch adds a netif_carrier_off() call when stopping AP mode to fix
the problem.
