The file drivers/staging/wlan-ng/p80211wext.c contains the following code:
(starting at line 1490 in a recent linux-next)
if (!(ext->alg & IW_ENCODE_ALG_WEP)) {
pr_debug("asked to set a non wep key :(");
return -EINVAL;
}
The reference to IW_ENCODE_ALG_WEP seems to refer to the following
definitions in include/linux/wireless.h
/* struct iw_encode_ext ->alg */
#define IW_ENCODE_ALG_NONE 0
#define IW_ENCODE_ALG_WEP 1
#define IW_ENCODE_ALG_TKIP 2
#define IW_ENCODE_ALG_CCMP 3
#define IW_ENCODE_ALG_PMK 4
#define IW_ENCODE_ALG_AES_CMAC 5
But if the alg field returns true for a bit and with IW_ENCODE_ALG_WEP,
then it would also return true for a bit and with IW_ENCODE_ALG_CCMP and
IW_ENCODE_ALG_AES_CMAC. Is this what is intended, or should the test be
encoded in another way?
