[patch 2.6.35 11/25] wimax/i2400m: limit the message size upto 16KiB [v1]

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

 



From: Prasanna S. Panchamukhi <prasannax.s.panchamukhi at intel.com>

According to Intel Wimax i3200, i5x50 and i6x50 specification
documents, the maximum size of each TX message can be upto 16KiB.
This patch modifies the i2400m_tx() routine to check that the
message size does not exceed the 16KiB limit.
Please refer the documentation in the code for details.
