Subject: p54 problem with PS
Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2009 21:24:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1239823495.20927.1.camel@johannes.local> (raw)


[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 516 bytes --]

Right after associating, the AP sends us the EAPOL frame. We miss that
frame, due to a race condition (we add the STA info for the AP a little
too late and drop the frame because we don't know who it is from).

The AP of course retries the frame, a little later, but p54 misses the
TIM bit -- see the ps.pkt file.

We should probably make that race window smaller somehow (stop the
tasklet that is processing RX while processing assoc frames maybe?) but
this is clearly foremost a p54 problem.
