    [PATCH] libertas: specific mesh scan for mshX interface · 1e838bf3
    Luis Carlos Cobo authored
    With this patch, scanning with mshX interface will only return mesh networks. To
    differentiate them, a specific mesh IE in beacons/probe responses is used. This
    IE has been introduced in firmware release 5.110.14. Note:
    
    Even though there can be at most a single mesh per channel, this scan might
    return several networks in the same channel.
    
    If all nodes in a mesh network are associated to an AP, they won't produce
    beacons/probe responses, thus the network will not be listed. This will be fixed
    in future firmware releases.
    
    Scan on ethX interface is not filtered, so it will list both mesh and non-mesh
    networks.
