At the same time unicast +packets work fine, since they are encrypted with the +pairwise key. + +At least with WPA2 CCMP mode the shared keys are +set in the following sequence: keyidx=1, 2, 1, 2. +After a while only keyidx 2 gets decrypted, and +keyidx 1 is ignored, probably because there is never +a keyidx 3. + +Symptoms are arping -b works for 10 minutes, since +keyidx=2 is used for broadcast, and then it stops +working for 10 minutes, because keyidx=1 is used. +That failure mode repeats forever. + +Note, the firmware does not even know which keyidx +corresponds to which hw_key_idx so the firmware is +trying to be smarter than the driver, which is bound +to fail. + +As workaround the function rt61pci_config_shared_key +requests software decryption of the shared keys, +by returning EOPNOTSUPP. However, pairwise keys are +still handled by hardware which works just fine. + +Signed-off-by: Bernd Edlinger <bernd.edlinger@hotmail.de> +Acked-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> +Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org> +--- + drivers/net/wireless/ralink/rt2x00/rt61pci.c | 93 +------------------- + 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 89 deletions(-) + +--- a/drivers/net/wireless/ralink/rt2x00/rt61pci.c ++++ b/drivers/net/wireless/ralink/rt2x00/rt61pci.c +@@ -321,97 +321,12 @@ static int rt61pci_config_shared_key(str + struct rt2x00lib_crypto *crypto, + struct ieee80211_key_conf *key) + { +- struct hw_key_entry key_entry; +- struct rt2x00_field32 field; +- u32 mask; +- u32 reg; +- +- if (crypto->cmd == SET_KEY) { +- /* +- * rt2x00lib can't determine the correct free +- * key_idx for shared keys.
