This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled b43: fix frequency reported on G-PHY with /new/ firmware to the linux-3.11.y-queue branch of the 3.11.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-3.11.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 3.11.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 1e1d409059f7a43a58797693016518a3e5b979dd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Rafa=C5=82=20Mi=C5=82ecki?= <zajec5@gmail.com> Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2014 22:28:22 +0200 Subject: b43: fix frequency reported on G-PHY with /new/ firmware MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit commit 2fc68eb122c7ea6cd5be1fe7d6650c0beb2f4f40 upstream. Support for firmware rev 508+ was added years ago, but we never noticed it reports channel in a different way for G-PHY devices. Instead of offset from 2400 MHz it simply passes channel id (AKA hw_value). So far it was (most probably) affecting monitor mode users only, but the following recent commit made it noticeable for quite everybody: commit 3afc2167f60a327a2c1e1e2600ef209a3c2b75b7 Author: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> Date: Tue Mar 4 16:50:13 2014 +0200 cfg80211/mac80211: ignore signal if the frame was heard on wrong channel Reported-by: Aaro Koskinen <aaro.koskinen@iki.fi> Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com> Tested-by: Aaro Koskinen <aaro.koskinen@iki.fi> Signed-off-by: John W.
