Can we use "sme_state != CFG80211_SME_CONNECTING" check for ibss path too? --- diff --git a/net/wireless/ibss.c b/net/wireless/ibss.c index 30f20fe..3d0930d 100644 --- a/net/wireless/ibss.c +++ b/net/wireless/ibss.c @@ -42,6 +42,7 @@ void __cfg80211_ibss_joined(struct net_device *dev, const u8 *bssid) cfg80211_hold_bss(bss_from_pub(bss)); wdev->current_bss = bss_from_pub(bss); + wdev->sme_state = CFG80211_SME_CONNECTED; cfg80211_upload_connect_keys(wdev); nl80211_send_ibss_bssid(wiphy_to_dev(wdev->wiphy), dev, bssid, @@ -60,7 +61,7 @@ void cfg80211_ibss_joined(struct net_device *dev, const u8 *bssid, gfp_t gfp) struct cfg80211_event *ev; unsigned long flags; - CFG80211_DEV_WARN_ON(!wdev->ssid_len); + CFG80211_DEV_WARN_ON(wdev->sme_state != CFG80211_SME_CONNECTING); ev = kzalloc(sizeof(*ev), gfp); if (!ev) @@ -115,9 +116,11 @@ int __cfg80211_join_ibss(struct cfg80211_registered_device *rdev, #ifdef CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT wdev->wext.ibss.channel = params->channel; #endif + wdev->sme_state = CFG80211_SME_CONNECTING; err = rdev->ops->join_ibss(&rdev->wiphy, dev, params); if (err) { wdev->connect_keys = NULL; + wdev->sme_state = CFG80211_SME_IDLE; return err; } @@ -169,6 +172,7 @@ static void __cfg80211_clear_ibss(struct net_device *dev, bool nowext) } wdev->current_bss = NULL; + wdev->sme_state = CFG80211_SME_IDLE; wdev->ssid_len = 0; #ifdef CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT if (!nowext) -- Thanks, Bing ��.n��������+%������w��{.n�����{���zW����ܨ}���Ơz�j:+v�����w����ޙ��&�)ߡ�a����z�ޗ���ݢj��w�f
