-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 I have a rt2500pci card I noticed that my wifi connection has slowed when stitching from 2.6.29.1 to 2.6.29.4 (it is also slow on 30-rc6) Also 2.6.27 (ubuntu) does not suffer it. I bisected and came to the following commit as the culprit I can test patches and if you need more info just ask. $ git bisect good 64e1b00c974ddeae6a60ebb02e1c487371905cea is first bad commit commit 64e1b00c974ddeae6a60ebb02e1c487371905cea Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Apr 24 16:05:16 2009 +0000 mac80211: fix basic rate bitmap calculation upstream commit: 7e0986c17f695952ce5d61ed793ce048ba90a661 "mac80211: fix basic rates setting from association response" introduced a copy/paste error. Unfortunately, this not just leads to wrong data being passed to the driver but is remotely exploitable for some hardware or driver combinations.
