[PATCH v2 1/2] ath10k: protect src_ring state with ce_lock in tx_sg()

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

 



It was possible to read invalid state of CE ring
buffer indexes. This could lead to scatter-gather
transfer failure in mid-way and crash firmware
later by leaving garbage data on the ring.
