Are you saying that you have issues with this patch (either v1 or v2) and only when software encryption is used ??? Please confirm. This patch fixes a regression which was introduced in 2.6.36 kernel. so essentially what this patch does is nothing but what was happening in 2.6.35 kernel and below. It should not create any new issues from what I can see. Anyway let us enable s/w encryption also and verify. > > Senthil: Any chance you could test with a few VIFS to > see if you see the same problem? > > Here is a dmesg snippet from wireless-testing with the v1 reverted > and v2 applied: > > sta9: authenticate with 00:14:d1:c6:d2:54 (try 1) > sta9: authenticated > sta9: associate with 00:14:d1:c6:d2:54 (try 1) > sta9: RX AssocResp from 00:14:d1:c6:d2:54 (capab=0x431 status=1 aid=0) > sta9: 00:14:d1:c6:d2:54 denied association (code=1) > sta9: deauthenticating from 00:14:d1:c6:d2:54 by local choice (reason=3) > ieee80211 wiphy0: device now idle > ieee80211 wiphy0: device no longer idle - scanning > ieee80211 wiphy0: device now idle > ieee80211 wiphy0: device no longer idle - working > sta10: authenticate with 00:14:d1:c6:d2:54 (try 1) > sta10: authenticated > sta10: associate with 00:14:d1:c6:d2:54 (try 1) > sta10: RX AssocResp from 00:14:d1:c6:d2:54 (capab=0x431 status=1 aid=0) > sta10: 00:14:d1:c6:d2:54 denied association (code=1) > sta10: deauthenticating from 00:14:d1:c6:d2:54 by local choice (reason=3) > > Thanks, > Ben > > -- > Ben Greear <greearb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Candela Technologies Inc http://www.candelatech.com > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
