    nl80211: send event when AP operation is stopped · 348baf0e
    Johannes Berg authored
    There are a few cases, e.g. suspend, where an AP interface is
    stopped by the kernel rather than by userspace request, most
    commonly when suspending. To let userspace know about this,
    send the NL80211_CMD_STOP_AP command as an event every time
    an AP interface is stopped. This also happens when userspace
    did in fact request the AP stop, but that's not a problem.
    
    For full-MAC drivers this may need to be extended to also
    cover cases where the device stopped the AP operation for
    some reason, this a bit more complicated because then all
    cfg80211 state also needs to be reset; such API is not part
    of this patch.
