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

 



In next-20131122 tree, if "sdata->vif.type != NL80211_IFTYPE_AP",
'chanctx_conf' will be not initialized, so need check it. Related
warning (with allmodconfig under hexagon):

    CC [M]  net/mac80211/tx.o
  net/mac80211/tx.c: In function 'ieee80211_subif_start_xmit':
  net/mac80211/tx.c:1827:27: warning: 'chanctx_conf' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]
