[PATCH 6.1 308/321] wifi: mac80211: fix receiving mesh packets in forwarding=0 networks

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

 



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

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

From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@xxxxxxxx>

commit e26c0946a5c1aa4d27f8dfe78f2a72b4550df91f upstream.

When forwarding is set to 0, frames are typically sent with ttl=1.
Move the ttl decrement check below the check for local receive in order to
fix packet drops.
