It's best to avoid line numbers in the commit message unless you paste the actual code, because sometimes people will be using different line numbers from you. > Signed-off-by: Young_X <YangX92@xxxxxxxxxxx> > --- > drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c | 2 +- > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c b/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c > index 6790b840..0854adc 100644 > --- a/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c > +++ b/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c > @@ -3250,7 +3250,7 @@ static unsigned int OnAssocReq(struct adapter *padapter, > if (pstat->aid > 0) { > DBG_88E(" old AID %d\n", pstat->aid); > } else { > - for (pstat->aid = 1; pstat->aid <= NUM_STA; pstat->aid++) > + for (pstat->aid = 1; pstat->aid < NUM_STA; pstat->aid++) drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c 3249 /* get a unique AID */ 3250 if (pstat->aid > 0) { 3251 DBG_88E(" old AID %d\n", pstat->aid); 3252 } else { 3253 for (pstat->aid = 1; pstat->aid <= NUM_STA; pstat->aid++) 3254 if (pstapriv->sta_aid[pstat->aid - 1] == NULL) 3255 break; 3256 3257 /* if (pstat->aid > NUM_STA) { */ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This comment is key. pstapriv->max_num_sta is always less than or equal to NUM_STA. 3258 if (pstat->aid > pstapriv->max_num_sta) { 3259 pstat->aid = 0; 3260 3261 DBG_88E(" no room for more AIDs\n"); 3262 3263 status = WLAN_STATUS_AP_UNABLE_TO_HANDLE_NEW_STA; 3264 3265 goto OnAssocReqFail; 3266 } else { 3267 pstapriv->sta_aid[pstat->aid - 1] = pstat; ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ So this is fine. 3268 DBG_88E("allocate new AID=(%d)\n", pstat->aid); 3269 } 3270 } 3271 regards, dan carpenter _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
