From: Johannes Berg Date: Tue, 12 May 2009 18:11:26 +0000 (+0200) Subject: mac80211: split out and decrease probe wait time X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e0502de6fe85b66ee51647eb75bc5af3c885d712;p=linux-beck.git mac80211: split out and decrease probe wait time The time we wait for a probe response after probing an AP due to beacon loss is currently the same as the monitoring interval, 2s. This is far too long, APs should respond to probes within a fraction of that time. To be able to adjust both values, add a new constant IEEE80211_PROBE_WAIT, use it for checking the probe response, and adjust it down to 200ms instead of 2 seconds.
