[PATCH] mac80211: reset station MLME flags upon new association

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

When associating anew, the old station MLME flags should
be cleared. The only exception is the 40 MHz disable
flag as it might have been set while the channel was set
in a previous authentication attempt so it needs to be
kept intact.
