[PATCH 3.15] mwifiex: process event before command response

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

 



From: Amitkumar Karwar <akarwar@xxxxxxxxxxx>

During extended scan, SCAN report event is always followed by
command response. Sometimes It is observed that command response
is processed before SCAN report which leads to a crash, because
current command node is cleared while handling the response.
This patch makes sure that driver's main thread gives priority
to events over command responses.
