Subject: [PATCH 3.4 05/26] mac80211: correctly close cancelled scans
Date: Fri,  8 Nov 2013 22:51:34 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131109065050.598729534@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20131109065050.089866597@linuxfoundation.org>

3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>

commit a754055a1296fcbe6f32de3a5eaca6efb2fd1865 upstream.

__ieee80211_scan_completed is called from a worker. This
means that the following flow is possible.

 * driver calls ieee80211_scan_completed
 * mac80211 cancels the scan (that is already complete)
 * __ieee80211_scan_completed runs

When scan_work will finally run, it will see that the scan
hasn't been aborted and might even trigger another scan on
another band. This leads to a situation where cfg80211's
scan is not done and no further scan can be issued.

Fix this by setting a new flag when a HW scan is being
cancelled so that no other scan will be triggered.
