commit 75aadc902298005c47d2b931c483452027ceae69 Author: Bjoern A. Zeeb <[email protected]> AuthorDate: 2026-06-22 01:16:45 +0000 Commit: Bjoern A. Zeeb <[email protected]> CommitDate: 2026-06-22 01:21:39 +0000 LinuxKPI: 802.11: adjust timing of sync_from_ni in lkpi_sta_assoc_to_run() We used to call the (*sta_state) downcall into the driver to set the sta state to ASSOC. After that we did a lot of sync operations incl. the lkpi_sta_sync_from_ni() which does a lot of rate and bandwith adjustments. This sync call needs to happen before we set the sta to assoc as drivers rely on some of this information, e.g., ht_cap and vht_cap (and equivalents for later standards) at that point. Moving this will make, e.g., mt7921 transmit at higher rates than just basic_rates.
