From 3bb02143ff55fec55558da4ad48425bf368eb8ed Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Sun, 6 Dec 2020 14:54:42 +0200 Subject: cfg80211: support immediate reconnect request hint There are cases where it's necessary to disconnect, but an immediate reconnection is desired. Support a hint to userspace that this is the case, by including a new attribute in the deauth or disassoc event.
