This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled mwifiex: fix setting of multicast filter to the linux-3.8.y-queue branch of the 3.8.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.8.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.8.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From 19b7aaa077e5c3908b5e736b4f99ba1d855d4b76 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Drake <dsd@laptop.org> Date: Wed, 8 May 2013 15:37:19 -0400 Subject: mwifiex: fix setting of multicast filter commit ccd384b10420ac81ba3fb9b0a7d18272c7173552 upstream. A small bug in this code was causing the ALLMULTI filter to be set when in fact we were just wanting to program a selective multicast list to the hardware. Fix that bug and remove a redundant if condition in the code that follows. This fixes wakeup behaviour when multicast WOL is enabled. Previously, all multicast packets would wake up the system. Now, only those that the host intended to receive trigger wakeups. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@laptop.org> Acked-by: Bing Zhao <bzhao@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
