From 686e7fe1c4389984c5f623ebe1bb636d41841f37 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Luciano Coelho Date: Mon, 10 Nov 2014 11:10:21 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] iwlwifi: mvm: protect session during CSA When another vif is also running during a channel switch, we need to use a session protection when we move to the new channel, so that we don't miss the beacons. Without this, sometimes the other vif repeatedly gets time exactly when we should be hearing the beacons, preventing channel switch from completing. Adding a session protection that lasts from the moment the channel changes until 2 TBTTs later, ensures that we will hear the beacons on the destination channel.
