Subject: [PATCH] softmac: deauthentication implies deassociation
Date: Mon, 1 May 2006 22:00:30 +0100 (BST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060501210030.5412688791B@zog.reactivated.net> (raw)
The 802.11 specs state that deauthenticating also implies disassociating. This
patch implements that, which improve the behaviour of SIOCSIWMLME.
