Subject: [PATCH] nl80211: add extra-ies only if allowed by driver
|
|
|

|
Upgrading wpa_supplicant from 2.9 to 2.10 breaks broadcom-wl
|
|
|
|
based adapters. The reason for it is hostapd tries to install additional
|
|
|
|
IEs for scanning while the driver does not support this.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The kernel indicates the maximum number of bytes for additional scan IEs
|
|
|
|
using the NL80211_ATTR_MAX_SCAN_IE_LEN attribute. Save this value and
|
|
|
|
only add additional scan IEs in case the driver can accommodate these
|
|
|
|
additional IEs.
