From 29165e4c8b265a415f1fd1dca947b5d4c72abc47 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Sat, 6 Feb 2010 15:20:13 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix deauth race When userspace requests a deauth while the authentication work is pending in the auth (not probe) state, we do not properly abort the work and then things get confused. Fix that and also improve the checks here to include the correct virtual interface, just in case two virtual interfaces would ever try to connect to the same BSS. Also fix a bug -- need to use list_del_rcu instead of just list_del to free a work item. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
