-Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: Fix Public Action frame RX in AP mode
-
-Public Action frames use special rules for how the BSSID field (Address
-3) is set. A wildcard BSSID is used in cases where the transmitter and
-recipient are not members of the same BSS. As such, we need to accept
-Public Action frames with wildcard BSSID.
-
-Commit db8e17324553 ("mac80211: ignore frames between TDLS peers when
-operating as AP") added a rule that drops Action frames to TDLS-peers
-based on an Action frame having different DA (Address 1) and BSSID
-(Address 3) values. This is not correct since it misses the possibility
-of BSSID being a wildcard BSSID in which case the Address 1 would not
-necessarily match.
-
-Fix this by allowing mac80211 to accept wildcard BSSID in an Action
-frame when in AP mode.
