Subject: [RFC] network: fix OWE transition BSS selection
Date: Wed, 23 Oct 2024 06:21:11 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241023132111.80231-1-prestwoj@gmail.com> (raw)
The selection loop was choosing an initial candidate purely for
use of the "fallback_to_blacklist" flag. But we have a similar
case with OWE transitional networks where we avoid the legacy
open network in preference for OWE:
/* Don't want to connect to the Open BSS if possible */
if (!bss->rsne)
continue;
If no OWE network gets selected we may iterate all BSS's and end
the loop, which then returns NULL.
To fix this move the blacklist check earlier and still ignore any
BSS's in the blacklist. Also add a new flag in the selection loop
indicating an open network was skipped. If we then exhaust all
other BSS's we can return this candidate.
