Re: [PATCH] staging: brcm80211: fix cast to pointer from integer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greg, please also merge this to the staging-linus branch since it
might resolve an instability issue.

It "might"?

Correction: I tested it now. Indeed it resolves a problem (segmentation fault) upon dissociation on amd64.

Is this a regression?  Do people see the problem on the .38 kernel as
well?

People on the .38 kernel see the problem even worse: they experience a crash on dissociation on both i386 and amd64.

It's way too late for anything but severe regressions to be sent to
Linus at this point in time...

Understood. Since behavior has not regressed, I think this fix does not qualify to be sent to Linus. Perhaps we can get it into a compat-wireless package.

Thanks, Roland.
