Until now, all the traffic was blocked during scan operation. However, scan operation is going to be used to implement Remain On Channel (ROC). In this case, special frames (marked with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN) must be sent during the operation. These frames need to be sent on the virtual interface #2. Until now, this interface was only used by the device for internal purpose. But since API 3.9, it can be used to send data during scan operation (we hijack the scan process to implement ROC). Thus, we need to change a bit the way we match the frames with the interface. Fortunately, the frames received during the scan are marked with the correct interface number. So there is no change to do on this part.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
