When a connexion was established without going through NL80211_CMD_CONNECT, the ssid was never set in the wireless_dev struct. Now we set it during when an NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE is issued. It may be needed to test this on some additional hardware (tested with iwlwifi and a AX201, and iwd on the userspace side), I could not test things like roaming and p2p. This applies to v6.2-rc7, but I think it may also be interesting to backport it from 5.19 to 6.1 Reported-by: Yohan Prod'homme <kernel@xxxxxxxx> Fixes: 7b0a0e3c3a88260b6fcb017e49f198463aa62ed1 Cc: linux-wireless@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Link: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216711 Signed-off-by: Marc Bornand <dev.mbornand@xxxxxxxxxx> --- net/wireless/nl80211.c | 9 +++++++++ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+) diff --git a/net/wireless/nl80211.c b/net/wireless/nl80211.c index 33a82ecab9d5..f1627ea542b9 100644 --- a/net/wireless/nl80211.c +++ b/net/wireless/nl80211.c @@ -10552,6 +10552,10 @@ static int nl80211_authenticate(struct sk_buff *skb, struct genl_info *info) return -ENOENT; wdev_lock(dev->ieee80211_ptr); + + memcpy(dev->ieee80211_ptr->u.client.ssid, ssid, ssid_len); + dev->ieee80211_ptr->u.client.ssid_len = ssid_len; + err = cfg80211_mlme_auth(rdev, dev, &req); wdev_unlock(dev->ieee80211_ptr); @@ -11025,6 +11029,11 @@ static int nl80211_deauthenticate(struct sk_buff *skb, struct genl_info *info) local_state_change = !!info->attrs[NL80211_ATTR_LOCAL_STATE_CHANGE]; wdev_lock(dev->ieee80211_ptr); + + if (reason_code == WLAN_REASON_DEAUTH_LEAVING) { + dev->ieee80211_ptr->u.client.ssid_len = 0; + } + err = cfg80211_mlme_deauth(rdev, dev, bssid, ie, ie_len, reason_code, local_state_change); wdev_unlock(dev->ieee80211_ptr); -- 2.39.1
