From: Felix Fietkau Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2019 14:22:43 +0100 Subject: [PATCH v2] wpa_supplicant: fix race condition in mesh mpm new peer handling When wpa_supplicant receives another new peer event before the first one has been processed, it tries to add a station to the driver a second time (which fails) and then tears down the station entry until another event comes in. Fix this by only adding a station to the driver if it didn't exist already.
