From: Ayala Beker Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2015 12:49:53 +0000 (+0300) Subject: cfg80211: allow changing station capabilities for unassociated stations X-Git-Tag: v4.4-rc1~141^2~85^2~35 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=47edb11b522561658fe719e56aa69a3c3098a3fe;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-exynos.git cfg80211: allow changing station capabilities for unassociated stations Currently, cfg80211 rejects capability updates for existing entries and as a result it's impossible to update entries that were added unassociated, but that is necessary to go through the full station states from userspace, adding a station before authentication etc. Fix this by allowing updates to capabilities for stations that the driver (or mac80211) assigned unassociated state. Drivers setting the full station state support flag must use the new station type for proper operation.
