Subject: [08/28] ath9k: fix a WEP crypto related regression
Date: Thu, 16 Feb 2012 16:55:42 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120217005535.079957995@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120217005609.GA17081@kroah.com>

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org>

commit f88373fa47f3ce6590fdfaa742d0ddacc2ae017f upstream.

commit b4a82a0 "ath9k_hw: fix interpretation of the rx KeyMiss flag"
fixed the interpretation of the KeyMiss flag for keycache based lookups,
however WEP encryption uses a static index, so KeyMiss is always asserted
for it, even though frames are decrypted properly.
Fix this by clearing the ATH9K_RXERR_KEYMISS flag if no keycache based
lookup was performed.
