Subject: [PATCH 1/4] mac80211: fail back to use associate from reassociate
Date: Wed, 30 May 2007 14:28:07 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070530182807.GD3610@tuxdriver.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070530182538.GB3610-2XuSBdqkA4R54TAoqtyWWQ@public.gmane.org>

From: Zhu Yi <yi.zhu-ral2JQCrhuEAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>

Some APs have strict checking between associate and reassociate. In
a case when an AP is restarted during a connection, it denies the
mac80211 reassoc request since this is a new association for the AP.
To fix this problem, we need to check the status code against
WLAN_STATUS_REASSOC_NO_ASSOC and clear ifsta->prev_bssid_set in
handling the association failure response.
