Johannes Berg 78f22b6a3a cfg80211: allow userspace to take ownership of interfaces ... When dynamically creating interfaces from userspace, e.g. for P2P usage, such interfaces are usually owned by the process that created them, i.e. wpa_supplicant. Should wpa_supplicant crash, such interfaces will often cease operating properly and cause problems on restarting the process. To avoid this problem, introduce an ownership concept for interfaces. If an interface is owned by a netlink socket, then it will be destroyed if the netlink socket is closed for any reason, including if the process it belongs to crashed. This gives us a race-free way to get rid of any such interfaces. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>		2014-04-09 10:55:28 +02:00
