[PATCH] cfg80211: Ignore downstream DEAUTH for authtry_bsses

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

 



If we receive a DEAUTH message from an AP while performing
an AUTH request, this does not constitute a reply to our AUTH
request.  In some cases an incoming DEAUTH may be due to the AP
clearing out old state from a previous authentication.
Instead we should ignore it and continue waiting for an AUTH
response.
