Hi Jouni,

I have updated the patch a bit. So re-sending the mail with updated patch.
I have superseded the previous one in the patchwork list.

> I applied the driver_nl80211.c part and below is a cleaned up version of
> the rest
Thanks!!

> Though, I did not go through all the details yet.
While testing, I found a bug in the patch I sent previously. In the
below piece of code, the "wpas_p2p_disconnect" call is not required as
wpas_p2p_group_delete is explicitly called with appropriate reason
code(FREQ_CONFLICT).
+               if (!wpas_is_p2p_prioritized(iface)) {
+                       /*
+                        * STA connection has priority over existing P2P
+                        * connection, so remove the interface.
+                        */
+                       wpas_p2p_disconnect(iface);
+                       iface->removal_reason =
+                               P2P_GROUP_REMOVAL_FREQ_CONFLICT;
+                       wpas_p2p_group_delete(iface);


I have generated a new patch including the above change. I am
attaching the patch and also putting it inline. Please see whether it
is fine.

[PATCH] P2P: Handle single channel concurrency

This patch handles cases where a STA connection is attempted after a P2P
connection and the new sta connection detects a freq conflict with the
existing P2P connection. Now based on the priority of the connection
(either sta or p2p), either one of the connection will be terminated

I applied the driver_nl80211.c part and below is a cleaned up version of
the rest. Though, I did not go through all the details yet.
