-Subject: [PATCH] ar6k-essid-one-and-32.patch
-
-This patch allows ESSID with length 1, which were rejected because the
-stack assumed iwconfig used a different format in the ioctl's payload.
-
-It also refuses ESSIDs longer than 31 bytes, because there is some
-buffer overrun issue buried somewhere else in the stack. In principle,
-32 bytes should be fine.
-
-Open issue:
-- where is the 32 bytes overrun ?
