[PATCH] Set ssid when authenticating

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

 



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
