As all devices we support have at least a 802.11n radio and thus ++cover 802.11b as well as 802.11g on 2.4 GHz, they are compatible with ++each other. ++ ++As the basic rate was incorrectly set for mesh interfaces in the past, ++connections between mesh neighbors would fail when altering the basic ++rate. ++ ++This patch ignores mismatches in the basic-rate field. By doing so, we ++avoid implementing some sort of scheduled switch between wireless ++configurations. ++ ++Signed-off-by: David Bauer <mail@david-bauer.net> ++--- ++ net/mac80211/mesh.c | 7 +++++-- ++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) ++ ++diff --git a/net/mac80211/mesh.c b/net/mac80211/mesh.c ++index 25223184d6e5..53b5339be5d0 100644 ++--- a/net/mac80211/mesh.c +++++ b/net/mac80211/mesh.c ++@@ -92,8 +92,11 @@ bool mesh_matches_local(struct ieee80211_sub_if_data *sdata, ++ ieee80211_sta_get_rates(sdata, ie, sband->band, ++ &basic_rates); ++ ++- if (sdata->vif.bss_conf.basic_rates != basic_rates) ++- return false; +++ if (sdata->vif.bss_conf.basic_rates != basic_rates) { +++ wiphy_warn(sdata->wdev.wiphy, +++ "ignoring basic rate mismatch for peer (local=%x peer=%x)\n", +++ sdata->vif.bss_conf.basic_rates, basic_rates); +++ } ++ ++ cfg80211_chandef_create(&sta_chan_def, sdata->vif.bss_conf.chandef.chan, ++ NL80211_CHAN_NO_HT); ++-- ++2.45.2 ++
