From a299542e97ec1939fdca7db6d3d82c0aa9bf8b9a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jouni Malinen Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2009 13:39:20 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: Fix reassociation by not clearing previous BSSID We must not clear the previous BSSID when roaming to another AP within the same ESS for reassociation to be used properly. It is fine to clear this when the SSID changes, so let's move the code into ieee80211_sta_set_ssid(). Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen Signed-off-by: John W.
