[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 05/25] mac80211: consider more elements in parsing CRC

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit a04564c99bb4a92f805a58e56b2d22cc4978f152 ]

We only use the parsing CRC for checking if a beacon changed,
and elements with an ID > 63 cannot be represented in the
filter. Thus, like we did before with WMM and Cisco vendor
elements, just statically add these forgotten items to the
CRC:
 - WLAN_EID_VHT_OPERATION
 - WLAN_EID_OPMODE_NOTIF

I guess that in most cases when VHT/HE operation change, the HT
operation also changed, and so the change was picked up, but we
did notice that pure operating mode notification changes were
ignored.
