However, this did not consider the case where the AP (which is obviously buggy) did not provide any legacy rate. Fix this by failing the association, as this can result in an unexpected failure in the low level driver and FW, e.g., in rate scale logic etc. Signed-off-by: Ilan Peer Signed-off-by: Luca Coelho --- net/mac80211/mlme.c | 10 +++++++++- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/net/mac80211/mlme.c b/net/mac80211/mlme.c index 04ed883339c7..2b57c53ab070 100644 --- a/net/mac80211/mlme.c +++ b/net/mac80211/mlme.c @@ -5037,8 +5037,16 @@ static int ieee80211_prep_connection(struct ieee80211_sub_if_data *sdata, * doesn't happen any more, but keep the workaround so * in case some *other* APs are buggy in different ways * we can connect -- with a warning. + * Allow this workaround only in case the AP provided at least + * one rate. */ - if (!basic_rates && min_rate_index >= 0) { + if (min_rate_index < 0) { + sdata_info(sdata, + "No legacy rates in association response\n"); + + sta_info_free(local, new_sta); + return -EINVAL; + } else if (!basic_rates) { sdata_info(sdata, "No basic rates, using min rate instead\n"); basic_rates = BIT(min_rate_index); -- 2.25.1
