[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 3/8] wifi: mac80211: Fix ack frame idr leak when mesh has no route

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

 



From: Nicolas Cavallari <nicolas.cavallari@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 39e7b5de9853bd92ddbfa4b14165babacd7da0ba ]

When trying to transmit an data frame with tx_status to a destination
that have no route in the mesh, then it is dropped without recrediting
the ack_status_frames idr.

Once it is exhausted, wpa_supplicant starts failing to do SAE with
NL80211_CMD_FRAME and logs "nl80211: Frame command failed".

Use ieee80211_free_txskb() instead of kfree_skb() to fix it.
