From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit a6ba64d0b187109dc252969c1fc9e2525868bd49 ] For an AP interface, when userspace specifieds the link ID to transmit the control port frame on (in particular for the initial 4-way-HS), due to the logic in ieee80211_build_hdr() for a frame transmitted from/to an MLD, we currently build a header with A1 = DA = MLD address of the peer MLD A2 = local link address (!) A3 = SA = local MLD address This clearly makes no sense, and leads to two problems: - if the frame were encrypted (not true for the initial 4-way-HS) the AAD would be calculated incorrectly - if iTXQs are used, the frame is dropped by logic in ieee80211_tx_dequeue() Fix the addressing, which fixes the first bullet, and the second bullet for peer MLDs, I'll fix the second one for non-MLD peers separately.
