This argument instructs mac80211 to trigger the scan even if the interface is configured as AP and has already started beaconing (the driver may not support such operation) Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli --- scan.c | 8 ++++++-- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/scan.c b/scan.c index 91984e5..73fb3fe 100644 --- a/scan.c +++ b/scan.c @@ -103,6 +103,10 @@ static int handle_scan(struct nl80211_state *state, parse = NONE; flags |= NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_FLUSH; break; + } else if (strcmp(argv[i], "ap-force") == 0) { + parse = NONE; + flags |= NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_AP; + break; } else if (strcmp(argv[i], "ssid") == 0) { parse = SSID; have_ssids = true; @@ -1355,7 +1359,7 @@ static int handle_scan_combined(struct nl80211_state *state, dump_argv[0] = argv[0]; return handle_cmd(state, id, dump_argc, dump_argv); } -TOPLEVEL(scan, "[-u] [freq *] [ies ] [lowpri,flush] [ssid *|passive]", 0, 0, +TOPLEVEL(scan, "[-u] [freq *] [ies ] [lowpri,flush,ap-force] [ssid *|passive]", 0, 0, CIB_NETDEV, handle_scan_combined, "Scan on the given frequencies and probe for the given SSIDs\n" "(or wildcard if not given) unless passive scanning is requested.\n" @@ -1365,7 +1369,7 @@ COMMAND(scan, dump, "[-u]", NL80211_CMD_GET_SCAN, NLM_F_DUMP, CIB_NETDEV, handle_scan_dump, "Dump the current scan results.
