Linville" , Greg Kroah-Hartman Subject: [PATCH 117/173] mac80211: initialize sta->last_rx in sta_info_alloc In-Reply-To: <46075c3a3ef08be6d70339617d6afc98@local> Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org 2.6.27.59-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Felix Fietkau commit 8bc8aecdc5e26cfda12dbd6867af4aa67836da6a upstream. This field is used to determine the inactivity time. When in AP mode, hostapd uses it for kicking out inactive clients after a while. Without this patch, hostapd immediately deauthenticates a new client if it checks the inactivity time before the client sends its first data frame. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: John W.
