From 1c38c7f22068b54a7ba5f026a45663c6727ab84c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Prestwood Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2019 12:35:09 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] nl80211: send event when CMD_FRAME duration expires cfg80211_remain_on_channel_expired is used to notify userspace when the remain on channel duration expired by sending an event. There is no such equivalent to CMD_FRAME, where if offchannel and a duration is provided, the card will go offchannel for that duration. Currently there is no way for userspace to tell when that duration expired apart from setting an independent timeout. This timeout is quite erroneous as the kernel may not immediately send out the frame because of scheduling or work queue delays. In testing, it was found this timeout had to be quite large to accomidate any potential delays. A better solution is to have the kernel send an event when this duration has expired. There is already NL80211_CMD_FRAME_WAIT_CANCEL which can be used to cancel a NL80211_CMD_FRAME offchannel. Using this command matches perfectly to how NL80211_CMD_CANCEL_REMAIN_ON_CHANNEL works, where its both used to cancel and notify if the duration has expired.
