From: Leon Yen <redacted> Update the proper firmware programming sequence to fix GTK rekey offload failure on WPA mixed mode. In the mt76_connac_mcu_key_iter, gtk_tlv->proto should be only set up on pairwise key and gtk_tlk->group_cipher should be only set up on the group key. Otherwise, those parameters required by firmware would be set incorrectly to cause GTK rekey offload failure on WPA mixed mode and then disconnection follows.

Why is gtk_tlv->proto set to WPA version values based on the cipher suite? That doesn't make much sense to me, since TKIP is supported by WPA2 as well. I will apply this patch anyway, since this check is there already, but this does look suspicious to me and should probably be revisited. - Felix _______________________________________________ Linux-mediatek mailing list Linux-mediatek@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-mediatek
