There\u0027s one userland API\nchange and one API addition. The API change is that\nnow SET_WIPHY must be called with virtual interface\nindex rather than only wiphy index in order to take\neffect for that interface -- luckily all current\nusers (hostapd) do that. For monitor interfaces, the\nold setting is preserved, but monitors are always\nslaved to other devices anyway so no guarantees.\n\nThe second userland API change is the introduction\nof a per virtual interface SET_CHANNEL command, that\nhostapd should use going forward to make it easier\nto understand what\u0027s going on (it can automatically\ndetect a kernel with this command).\n\nOther than mac80211, no existing cfg80211 drivers\nare affected by this change because they only allow\na single virtual interface.\n\nmac80211, however, now needs to be aware that the\nchannel settings are per interface now, and needs\nto disallow (for now) real multi-channel operation,\nwhich is another important part of this patch.\n\nOne of the immediate benefits is that you can now\nstart hostapd to operate on a hardware that already\nhas a connection on another virtual interface, as\nlong as you specify the same channel.\n\nNote that two things are left unhandled (this is an\nimprovement -- not a complete fix):\n\n * different HT/no-HT modes\n\n currently you could start an HT AP and then\n connect to a non-HT network on the same channel\n which would configure the hardware for no HT;\n that can be fixed fairly easily\n\n * CSA\n\n An AP we\u0027re connected to on a virtual interface\n might indicate switching channels, and in that\n case we would follow it, regardless of how many\n other interfaces are operating; this requires\n more effort to fix but is pretty rare after all\n\nSigned-off-by: Johannes Berg \u003cjohannes@sipsolutions.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: John W.

This\nhelper works with data already in cpu cache and is not be very\nexpensive, despite its O(N^2) implementation.\n\nPaweł Staszewski sucessfully tested this patch on his loaded router.\n\nReported-and-tested-by: Paweł Staszewski \u003cpstaszewski@itcare.pl\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Eric Dumazet \u003ceric.dumazet@gmail.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Neil Horman \u003cnhorman@tuxdriver.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: David S.
