Subject: [PATCH wireless v3 0/3] wifi: mt76: clear cipher state on key removal for WED offload
Date: Tue,  7 Apr 2026 01:39:14 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260407053917.75898-1-joshuaklinesmith@gmail.com> (raw)

Clear stale BSS cipher on group key removal so WED-offloaded
plaintext traffic is not dropped after switching from encrypted
to open/no-encryption mode.

Changes since v2:
- New patch 1/3: initialize hw_key_idx2 to -1 in mt76_wcid_init()
  for consistent "no key" sentinel on both key index slots.
- Guard cipher clearing on both hw_key_idx == (u8)-1 AND
  hw_key_idx2 == (u8)-1, so that GTK rotation (new key installed
  before old removed) and BIGTK removal while another group key
  is active do not trigger a premature zero-cipher BSS update.

Changes since v1:
- Rebased on current wireless tree.
