Fixes the problem that a mesh peering process won't be fired again after the previous first peering trial fails due to like air propagation error if the peering is managed by user space such as wpa_supplicant. This patch works with another patch for wpa_supplicant described here which fires a peering process again triggered by the notice from kernel. http://lists.shmoo.com/pipermail/hostap/2014-November/031235.html Signed-off-by: Kenzoh Nishikawa <Kenzoh.Nishikawa at jp.sony.com> --- net/mac80211/mesh_plink.c | 7 +++++++ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) diff --git a/net/mac80211/mesh_plink.c b/net/mac80211/mesh_plink.c index 32c7bd0..dfc429b 100644 --- a/net/mac80211/mesh_plink.c +++ b/net/mac80211/mesh_plink.c @@ -524,6 +524,13 @@ void mesh_neighbour_update(struct ieee80211_sub_if_data *sdata, sdata->u.mesh.mshcfg.auto_open_plinks && rssi_threshold_check(sta, sdata)) changed = mesh_plink_open(sta); + else if (sta->plink_state == NL80211_PLINK_LISTEN && + (sdata->u.mesh.user_mpm || + sdata->u.mesh.security & IEEE80211_MESH_SEC_AUTHED)) + cfg80211_notify_new_peer_candidate(sdata->dev, hw_addr, + elems->ie_start, + elems->total_len, + GFP_KERNEL); ieee80211_mps_frame_release(sta, elems); out: -- 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
