Subject: mac80211: Breakage in software encryption (iwl3945)
Date: Sat, 23 Jan 2010 22:10:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1264277460.13250.10.camel@maxim-laptop> (raw)

I updated the kernel and lost connection to my WPA2
AP. Strangely the WPA handshake completes, but DHCP not.

I also unfortunately found that all that time I was using software
encryption (this is iwl3945 loaded with swcrypto=1).
Hardware encryption doesn't work ether and didn't work in the slightly
older kernel (but it did work once, I sure)

Now, the commit a6bae9e7ab19876a157c91019852395539e4f20e breaks software
encryption, with behaviour like described above.

Best regards,
Maxim Levitsky
