[PATCH v3 0/2] Fixes for 802.1X in mesh mode

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

 



In order to support 802.1X in mesh mode, userspace should be able
to rx and tx eapol frames, after an initial MPM, before a second AMPE.

Some checks regarding mesh forwarding were conflicting with this.
Therefore this little series adds some checks for control port frames
and disables mesh path lookups on the tx side or drop of unencrypted
frames on the rx side.

v3: continue with previous drop check, if eapol check fails

v2: fixes for rx path with packet sockets

Markus Theil (2):
  mac80211: skip mpath lookup also for control port tx
  mac80211: allow rx of mesh eapol frames with default rx key
