[PATCH 4.19 131/148] wifi: mwifiex: configure BSSID consistently when starting AP

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

 



4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Lin <yu-hao.lin@xxxxxxx>

commit f0dd488e11e71ac095df7638d892209c629d9af2 upstream.

AP BSSID configuration is missing at AP start.  Without this fix, FW returns
STA interface MAC address after first init.  When hostapd restarts, it gets MAC
address from netdev before driver sets STA MAC to netdev again. Now MAC address
between hostapd and net interface are different causes STA cannot connect to
AP.  After that MAC address of uap0 mlan0 become the same. And issue disappears
after following hostapd restart (another issue is AP/STA MAC address become the
same).

This patch fixes the issue cleanly.
