It ensures that the mac address is not accessed over a NULL pointer. It also ensures that a MAC address, which is different from the address from the device EEPROM can be set. Additionally it introduces an open flag, which might be helpful to handle the channel setting problem. Your patch solves the issue of NULL pointer accesses, but not the real cause of the problem. Look at this gitweb output: http://deine-taler.de/git-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=zd1211rw.git;a=shortlog;h=zd1211rw-dev The patch is called "Fixed: MAC address handling". The git URL is: git://deine-taler.de/git/zd1211rw.git Daniel is normally reviewing my patches and forwards them to linux-wireless. This is our way to ensure quality control before the patches hit John's tree. -- Uli Kunitz - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
