From 2e10d330f8d5f039fa1e00baf59435ab0f11c722 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Felix Fietkau Date: Sun, 20 Dec 2009 19:07:09 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix ibss join with fixed-bssid When fixed bssid is requested when joining an ibss network, incoming beacons that match the configured bssid cause mac80211 to create new sta entries, even before the ibss interface is in joined state. When that happens, it fails to bring up the interface entirely, because it checks for existing sta entries before joining. This patch fixes this bug by refusing to create sta info entries before the interface is fully operational. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: John W.
