Enable the port when disabling countermeasures, and disable it on
enabling countermeasures.
This bug causes the response of the system to certain attacks to be
ineffective.
It also prevents wpa_supplicant from getting scan results, as
wpa_supplicant disables countermeasures on startup - preventing the
hardware from scanning.
wpa_supplicant works with ap_mode=2 despite this bug because the commit
handler re-enables the port.
The log tends to look like:
State: DISCONNECTED -> SCANNING
Starting AP scan for wildcard SSID
Scan requested (ret=0) - scan timeout 5 seconds
EAPOL: disable timer tick
EAPOL: Supplicant port status: Unauthorized
Scan timeout - try to get results
Failed to get scan results
Failed to get scan results - try scanning again
Setting scan request: 1 sec 0 usec
Starting AP scan for wildcard SSID
Scan requested (ret=-1) - scan timeout 5 seconds
Failed to initiate AP scan.

... and interface up.
In these situations, you are usually trying to connect to a new AP, so
keeping TKIP countermeasures active is confusing. This is already how
the driver behaves (inadvertently). However, querying SIOCGIWAUTH may
tell userspace that countermeasures are active when they aren't.
Clear the setting so that the reporting matches what the driver has
done..

While doing this analysis, I found a refcount bug in llc, I'll send a

Meanwhile, here is the patch for net-next-2.6
Your patch then can be applied after mine.
Thanks
[PATCH] net: RCU conversion of dev_getbyhwaddr() and arp_ioctl()
dev_getbyhwaddr() was called under RTNL.
Rename it to dev_getbyhwaddr_rcu() and change all its caller to now use
RCU locking instead of RTNL.
Change arp_ioctl() to use RCU instead of RTNL locking.
Note: this fix a dev refcount bug in llc

Oh well, of course I must first fix the bug in net-2.6, and wait David
pull the fix in net-next-2.6 before sending this rcu conversion.
Note: this patch should be sent to stable teams (2.6.34 and up)
[PATCH net-2.6] llc: fix a device refcount imbalance
commit abf9d537fe (llc: add support for SO_BINDTODEVICE) added one
refcount imbalance in llc_ui_bind(), because dev_getbyhwaddr() doesnt
take a reference on device, while dev_get_by_index() does.
Fix this using RCU locking. And since an RCU conversion will be done for
2.6.38 for dev_getbyhwaddr(), put the rcu_read_lock/unlock exactly at
their final place.

can be handled within the driver itself.
Also, AR7010 refers to the processor used in both AR9280/AR9287 based
