Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mac80211: fix vif addr when switching from monitor to station
Date: Fri, 15 Nov 2024 12:58:50 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241115115850.37449-1-nbd@nbd.name> (raw)
Since adding support for opting out of virtual monitor support, a zero vif
addr was used to indicate passive vs active monitor to the driver.
This would break the vif->addr when changing the netdev mac address before
switching the interface from monitor to sta mode.
Fix the regression by adding a separate flag to indicate whether vif->addr
is valid.
