From 15db0b7fd872b0312033666d3a82e1214a227ec0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2009 16:33:47 +0200 Subject: mac80211: fix scan cancel on ifdown When an interface is taken down while a scan is pending -- i.e. a scan request was accepted but not yet acted upon due to other work being in progress -- we currently do not properly cancel that scan and end up getting stuck. Fix this by doing better checks when an interface is taken down. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
