Subject: [PATCH v2 2/8] wl12xx: AP-mode - fix race condition on sta connection
Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2011 00:22:25 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1298413351-15462-3-git-send-email-arik@wizery.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1298413351-15462-1-git-send-email-arik@wizery.com>

If a sta starts transmitting immediately after authentication, sometimes
the FW deauthenticates it. Fix this by marking the sta "in-connection"
in FW before sending the autentication response.

The "in-connection" entry is automatically removed when connection
succeeds or after a timeout.
