From 078e1e60dd6c6b0d4bc8d58ccb80c008e8efc9ff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Thu, 22 Jan 2009 18:07:31 +0100 Subject: mac80211: Add capability to enable/disable beaconing This patch adds a flag to notify drivers to start and stop beaconing when needed, for example, during a scan run. Based on Sujith's first patch to do the same, but now disables beaconing for all virtual interfaces while scanning, has a separate change flag and tracks user-space requests.
