[PATCH 1/4] hostap: Allocate enough tailroom for TKIP

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

 



From: Brandon Craig Rhodes <brandon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When hostap_tx_encrypt() tries to allocate enough headroom and
tailroom for ieee80211 encryption, it only makes enough room for the
"mpdu" phase of the operation, but forgets about the "msdu" phase.
(For TKIP, these two phases require, respectively, 4 and 8 bytes of
tailroom, per the "ieee80211_crypt_tkip" structure at the bottom of
net/ieee80211/ieee80211_crypt_tkip.c.)
