+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix for incorrect sequence number on hostapd injected frames
|
|
|
+MIME-Version: 1.0

|
|
|
+When hostapd injects a frame, e.g. an authentication or association
|
|
|
+response, mac80211 looks for a suitable access point virtual interface
|
|
|
+to associate the frame with based on its source address. This makes it
|
|
|
+possible e.g. to correctly assign sequence numbers to the frames.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+A small typo in the ethernet address comparison statement caused a
|
|
|
+failure to find a suitable ap interface. Sequence numbers on such
|
|
|
+frames where therefore left unassigned causing some clients
|
|
|
+(especially windows-based 11b/g clients) to reject them and fail to
|
|
|
+authenticate or associate with the access point. This patch fixes the
|
|
|
+typo in the address comparison statement.
