Hello

I have been testing the Authsae with ath5k and ath9k.  Everything with
ath9k is working great, encryption and speed.  But I have not been able to
establish a encrypted mesh with the ath5k cards.  I have tried the
nohwcrypt=1 and other patches sent up to the list but no luck. I did notice
another error when Authsae is trying to connect with another node. Maybe it
will help. (or maybe not)

I have been following the
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg96505.html list for a while
to see if anyone else had this error.

Node 1 shows this error half way through
Unexpected error -67 (expected -107)
NL80211_CMD_NEW_PEER_CANDIDATE(1136395638.495356)
new unauthed sta (seq num=1136395655)
NL80211_CMD_NEW_STATION (1136395638.496356)
NL80211_CMD_FRAME (1136395639.111262)
then I get
Mesh plink: incorrect plink ie length 3 6

Node 2 shows this error at the end
estab with 00:14:6d:94:6e:6f
set auth flag (seq num=1136075917)
set plink state (seq num=1136075918)
mesh plink with 00:14:6d:94:6e:6f established
Unexpected error -22 (expected -107)
nlerror, cmd 11, seq 1136075915: Invalid argument
Mesh plink timer for 00:14:6d:94:6e:6f fired on state ESTAB
Timeout for peer 00:14:6d:94:6e:6f in state 4

According to Javiers information
Cmd 11 is NL80211_CMD_NEW_KEY, and the kernel seems to be rejecting
it.  The invalid argument error is -EINVAL, which could be raised by
cfg80211_validate_key_settings (see Yeoh's patch). authsae will
install 3 keys for each newly established peer.  See estab_peer_link,
in meshd-nl80211.c

I tried commenting out different area's of the meshd-nl80211.c as suggested
but no luck.

Incorrect plink ie length 3 6
This is reported by authsae: a PLINK_CLOSE IE is received of size 6
bytes.  Should be 22 or 24 bytes (see ampe.c:942).

My question is what is Unexpected error -67 (expected -107)

maybe it will me or someone else with the same issue.

Thanks

Fred
