From c1428b3f45d152a300e4f18638ebf30ceafda6c3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2007 02:54:53 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix allmulti/promisc behaviour When an interface with promisc/allmulti bit is taken down, the mac80211 state can become confused. This fixes it by making mac80211 keep track of all *active* interfaces that have the promisc/allmulti bit set in the sdata, we sync the interface bit into sdata at set_multicast_list() time so this works.
