From 57f255f58165974c131f048b4302728052d92d29 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arik Nemtsov Date: Sun, 25 Oct 2015 10:59:34 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: TDLS: add proper HT-oper IE When 11n peers performs a TDLS connection on a legacy BSS, the HT operation IE must be specified according to IEEE802.11-2012 section 9.23.3.2. Otherwise HT-protection is compromised and the medium becomes noisy for both the TDLS and the BSS links.
