From cf595922b9a3b61e308224fd29909f54ecb557d4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Luca Coelho Date: Mon, 9 Nov 2015 12:17:37 +0200 Subject: nl80211: clarify NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_DELAY usage with net-detect In this attribute's documentation, it was not clear whether the delay started counting when WoWLAN net-detect was enabled or when the system was suspended. The correct answer is that it starts when the system suspends (which is when, in practice, the scan is scheduled). Clarify that in the nl80211.h documentation.
