From b6bf8c688e07c056f3059d870f6db44777259fe7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Greear Date: Fri, 1 Apr 2016 14:13:31 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: ensure no limits on station rhashtable By default, the rhashtable logic will fail to insert objects if the key-chains are too long and un-balanced. In the degenerate case where mac80211 is creating many virtual interfaces connected to the same peer(s), this case can happen. St insecure_elasticity to true to allow chains to grow as long as needed.
