[virtual-sta 2/3] ath9k: Calculate bssid-mask and rxfilter for 2+ STAs

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

 



From: Ben Greear <greearb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The rx-filter wasn't taking multiple VIFs into account
when calculating the BEACON and OTHER_BSS filter.

Make sure that bssid-mask is set up properly if we have
more than 1 VIF.  The BSSID should be calculated over all
VIFs, not just running ones.  Otherwise, secondary VIFS
cannot receive enough packets to bring up their link.
