| H A D | nl80211.h | 36a554ce Mon Jun 26 11:52:30 CDT 2017 Andrei Otcheretianski <andrei.otcheretianski@intel.com> nl80211: Don't verify owner_nlportid on NAN commands
If NAN interface is created with NL80211_ATTR_SOCKET_OWNER, the socket
that is used to create the interface is used for all NAN operations and
reporting NAN events.
However, it turns out that sending commands and receiving events on
the same socket is not possible in a completely race-free way:
If the socket buffer is overflowed by the events, the command response
will not be sent. In that case the caller will block forever on recv.
Using non-blocking socket for commands is more complicated and still
the command response or ack may not be received.
So, keep unicasting NAN events to the interface creator, but allow
using a different socket for commands.
