[PATCH 3/3] Staging: rtl8192e: Do not send NULL BSSID events when not associated
in [Kernel]
|
Prev: xfs, 2.6.27=>.32 sync write 10 times slowdown [was: xfs, aacraid 2.6.27 => 2.6.32 results in 6 times slowdown]
Next: [10/23] SCHED: Only allocate per cpu cpu mask buffer with offstack cpumasks
From: Samuel Ortiz on 10 Jun 2010 11:00 If we're not associated, we should not send wireless events to let userspace know that we just left an ESSID, simply because we havent yet joined it. If we keep on doing that, wpa_supplicant could receive such events while actually trying to join an ESSID, and thus decide to stop trying. This leads to a lot of connection failures as this driver seems to be sending GIWAP events quite a lot.
