The decrypt_error flag is initialized to false just outside ath_rx_tasklet() loop. ath9k_rx_accept(), called by ath9k_rx_skb_preprocess(), only sets decrypt_error to true and never to false. Then ath_rx_tasklet() calls ath9k_rx_skb_postprocess() and passes decrypt_error to it. So, after a decryption error, in ath9k_rx_skb_postprocess(), we can have a leftover value from another processed frame. In that case, the frame will not be marked with RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED even if it is decrypted correctly. When using CCMP encryption this issue can lead to connection stuck because of CCMP PN corruption and a waste of CPU time since mac80211 tries to decrypt an already deciphered frame with ieee80211_aes_ccm_decrypt. Fix the issue initializing decrypt_error flag at the begging of the ath_rx_tasklet() loop. Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Bianconi Cc: Signed-off-by: John W.
