[PATCH] mac80211: fix channel switch trigger from unknown mesh peer

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

 



From: Tamizh chelvam <tamizhr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Previously mesh channel switch happens if beacon contains
CSA IE without checking the mesh peer info. Due to that
channel switch happens even if the beacon is not from
its own mesh peer. Fixing that by checking if the CSA
originated from the same mesh network before proceeding
for channel switch.
