commit610d086d6dupstream. mac80211 set capability NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CONTROL_PORT_OVER_NL80211 to upper layer by default. That means we should pass EAPoL packets through nl80211 path only, and should not send the EAPoL skb to netdevice diretly. At the meanwhile, wpa_supplicant would not register sock to listen EAPoL skb on the netdevice. However, there is no control_port_protocol handler in mac80211 for 802.3 RX packets, mac80211 driver would pass up the EAPoL rekey frame to netdevice and wpa_supplicant would be never interactive with this kind of packets, if SUPPORTS_RX_DECAP_OFFLOAD is enabled. This causes STA always rekey fail if EAPoL frame go through 802.3 path. To avoid this problem, align the same process as 802.11 type to handle this frame before put it into network stack. This also addresses a potential security issue in 802.3 RX mode that was previously fixed in commita8c4d76a8d("mac80211: do not accept/forward invalid EAPOL frames").

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
