[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.4 05/18] mac80211: mesh: fix HWMP sequence numbering to follow standard
From: Sasha Levin
Date: Mon Sep 24 2018 - 10:51:39 EST
From: Yuan-Chi Pang <fu3mo6goo@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 1f631c3201fe5491808df143d8fcba81b3197ffd ]
IEEE 802.11-2016 14.10.8.3 HWMP sequence numbering says:
If it is a target mesh STA, it shall update its own HWMP SN to
maximum (current HWMP SN, target HWMP SN in the PREQ element) + 1
immediately before it generates a PREP element in response to a
PREQ element.
