[PATCH RESEND mac80211] cfg80211: fix channel configuration in IBSS join

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When receiving an IBSS_JOINED event select the BSS object
based on the {bssid, channel} couple rather than the bssid
only.

With the current approach if another cell having the same
BSSID (but using a different channel) exists then cfg80211
picks up the wrong BSS object.
The result is a mismatching channel configuration between
cfg80211 and the driver, that can lead to any sort of
problem.

The issue can be triggered by having an IBSS sitting on
given channel and then asking the driver to create a new
cell using the same BSSID but with a different frequency.

By passing the channel to cfg80211_get_bss() we can solve
this ambiguity and retrieve/create the correct BSS object.

All the users of cfg80211_ibss_joined() have been changed
accordingly.

- Patch is getting resent because I did not CC'd the linux-wireless mailing list in
my previous attempt. :)

- patch is based on:
"cfg80211: use the proper union member when sending a IBSS_JOINED event"
