[PATCH 09/29] USB: io_ti: check firmware version before updating

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

 



If we can't read the firmware for a device from the disk, and yet the
device already has a valid firmware image in it, we don't want to
replace the firmware with something invalid.  So check the version
number to be less than the current one to verify this is the correct
thing to do.
