This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled iwlwifi: mvm: don't allow sched scans without matches to be started to the linux-4.2.y-queue branch of the 4.2.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-4.2.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 4.2.8-ckt5. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 4.2.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From 356af8d42da4702b07d8d4d29ec0e3b99bb01ddf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Luca Coelho <luciano.coelho@intel.com> Date: Tue, 2 Feb 2016 15:11:15 +0200 Subject: iwlwifi: mvm: don't allow sched scans without matches to be started commit 5e56276e7555b34550d51459a801ff75eca8b907 upstream. The firmware can perform a scheduled scan with not matchsets passed, but it can't send notification that results were found. Since the userspace then cannot know when we got new results and the firmware wouldn't trigger a wake in case we are sleeping, it's better not to allow scans without matchsets.
