From 3f382eb23b9fee75d05276a44feb5351d956238e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Bjoern A. Zeeb" Date: Thu, 21 Sep 2023 11:51:23 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] net80211: introduce two extra ieee80211_notify_scan_done() We have multiple problems with scanning currently, one being that an initial scan restarts itself and we are unable to start another scan. wpa_supplicant in that case never shows scan results. Starting wpa_cli you may see: <3>CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-FAILED ret=-1 retry=1 messages. Add two extra calls to ieee80211_notify_scan_done() at the end of scans (before possible restarts). That will get wpa_supplicant to get scan results and possibly start associating to a BSSID and get us out of scan. This is kind-of a bandaid but on short notice may help to improve the situation for some.
