[PATCH 3.8 1/5] ath9k: do not link receive buffers during flush

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

 



On AR9300 the rx FIFO needs to be empty during reset to ensure that no
further DMA activity is generated, otherwise it might lead to memory
corruption issues.
