[ Upstream commit 6f6291f09a322c1c1578badac8072d049363f4e6 ] With a ath9k device I can see that: iw phy phy0 interface add mesh0 type mp ip link set mesh0 up iw dev mesh0 scan Will start a scan with the Power Management bit set in the Frame Control Field. This is because we set this bit depending on the nonpeer_pm variable of the mesh iface sdata and when there are no active links on the interface it remains to NL80211_MESH_POWER_UNKNOWN. As soon as links starts to be established, it wil switch to NL80211_MESH_POWER_ACTIVE as it is the value set by befault on the per sta nonpeer_pm field. As we want no power save by default, (as expressed with the per sta ini values), lets init it to the expected default value of NL80211_MESH_POWER_ACTIVE. Also please note that we cannot change the default value from userspace prior to establishing a link as using NL80211_CMD_SET_MESH_CONFIG will not work before NL80211_CMD_JOIN_MESH has been issued. So too late for our initial scan.

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.
