From fbc44bf7177dfd61381da55405550b693943a432 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Thu, 1 Oct 2009 22:06:29 +0200 Subject: mac80211: fix vlan and optimise RX When receiving data frames, we can send them only to the interface they belong to based on transmitting station (this doesn't work for probe requests). Also, don't try to handle other frames for AP_VLAN at all since those interface should only receive data. Additionally, the transmit side must check that the station we're sending a frame to is actually on the interface we're transmitting on, and not transmit packets to functions that live on other interfaces, so validate that as well. Another bug fix is needed in sta_info.c where in the VLAN case when adding/removing stations we overwrite the sdata variable we still need.

This makes it possible e.g. to correctly assign sequence numbers to the frames. A small typo in the ethernet address comparison statement caused a failure to find a suitable ap interface. Sequence numbers on such frames where therefore left unassigned causing some clients (especially windows-based 11b/g clients) to reject them and fail to authenticate or associate with the access point. This patch fixes the typo in the address comparison statement. Signed-off-by: Björn Smedman Reviewed-by: Johannes Berg Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W.
