[PATCH 3/4] mac80211: push michael MIC report after DA check

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

 



When we receive a michael MIC failure report from the
hardware we currently do not check whether it is actually
reported on a frame that is destined to us. It shouldn't
be possible to get a michael MIC failure report on other
frames, but it also doesn't hurt to verify.

Also, since we then don't need the station struct that
early, move looking it up a bit later in the RX path.

Finally, while at it, a few code cleanups in the area.
