From 51b50fbeb574f581c0b112e035541f42fa3e604a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Sun, 24 May 2009 16:42:30 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: validate AID of stations being added We have some validation code in mac80211 but said code will force an invalid AID to 0 which isn't a valid AID either; instead require a valid AID (1-2007) to be passed in from userspace in cfg80211 already. Also move the code before the race comment since it can only be executed during STA addition and thus is not racy. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
