[PATCH] wifi: mac80211: fix receiving mesh packets in forwarding=0 networks

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

 



When forwarding is set to 0, frames are typically sent with ttl=1.
Move the ttl decrement check below the check for local receive in order to
fix packet drops.
