Subject: mac80211 doesn't reassociate after failed ProbeResp
Date: Wed, 7 Nov 2007 10:21:58 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071107102158.61b4ca3d@morte> (raw)

I got a quite reproducible bug with mac80211. Sometimes, this happens
(phy0 is a b43 PHY):

Nov  7 02:06:23 morte [123784.591945] wlan0: No ProbeResp from current AP 00:14:c1:35:8d:eb - assume out of range
Nov  7 02:06:23 morte [123784.591968] phy0: Removed STA 00:14:c1:35:8d:eb

then, instead of trying to reassociate, mac80211 acts like this:
Nov  7 02:06:25 morte [123785.138041] wlan0: dropped data frame to not associated station 00:14:c1:35:8d:eb
Nov  7 02:06:25 morte [123785.138243] wlan0: dropped data frame to not associated station 00:14:c1:35:8d:eb
Nov  7 02:06:55 morte [123798.704732] wlan0: No STA entry for own AP 00:14:c1:35:8d:eb

I guess that's a mac80211 bug. I'll be happy to provide you with more
testing.
