cfg80211: disallow beacon_int_min_gcd with IBSS (56271da2) · Commits · 戴 / test

This can't really be supported right now, because the IBSS interface may change its beacon interval at any time due to joining another network; thus, there's already "support" for different beacon intervals here, implicitly. Until we figure out how we should handle this case (continue to allow it to arbitrarily join? Join only if compatible?) disallow advertising that different beacon intervals are supported if IBSS is allowed. Signed-off-by:
