I've been following the thread and still can't get this confusion out
of my head:
i'm currently using kernel 3.3.2 (openwrt trunk r31439), with Atheros
AR9285 and i can succesfully combine IBSS interface with AP or STA
modes...
# iw dev
phy#0
Interface wlan0-1
ifindex 11
type AP
Interface wlan0-2
ifindex 10
type IBSS
Interface wlan0
ifindex 9
type AP
So, does this patch mean this functionality will be lost in future
versions of ath9k?
or maybe it is officially unsupported and openwrt has patches applied?
or, even worse, I completely misunderstood what you're talking about?
(in that case i'm sorry for the noise)
Thanks a lot,
Guido
