From: Jakub Kicinski <kubakici@xxxxx> It's still possible for users to hurt themselves by setting incompatible mac addresses on hardware that needs conformance to addr_mask. This series aims to fix that and improve address assignment to active monitors. Unfortunately there is a merge conflict in mac80211.git and mac80211-next.git between: ac20976dca mac80211: Allow single vif mac address change with addr_mask and 31eba5bc56 mac80211: support active monitor interfaces so I got confused and based the series on wireless-testing.git. Is this acceptable? Jakub Kicinski (5): mac80211: introduce __ieee80211_assign_perm_addr mac80211: return new mac address as soon as possible mac80211: always default to address compatible with mask mac80211: enforce address verification on monitors mac80211: assign right mac addr to active monitors net/mac80211/cfg.c | 2 +- net/mac80211/ieee80211_i.h | 2 +- net/mac80211/iface.c | 197 ++++++++++++++++++++++----------------------- net/mac80211/main.c | 2 +- 4 files changed, 99 insertions(+), 104 deletions(-) -- 1.8.1.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
