Hello Arend,

Sorry for the late reply. I have attached a kernel log with brcmfmac
debugging enabled (without my patch applied).

Let me know if I can provide any other useful information.

No problem, Emil

I was wondering what was returned on "chanspecs" query. So 17 channel configs which is expected.

Regards,
Arend

Best regards,

Emil

In the brcmf_count_20mhz_channels function we are looping through a list
of channels received from firmware. Since the index of the first channel
is 0 the condition leads to an off by one bug. This is causing us to hit
the WARN_ON_ONCE(1) calls in the brcmu_d11n_decchspec function, which is
how I discovered the bug.

The fix is fine. Would like to know what exactly is going wrong. Can you
provide a kernel log with brcmfmac debugging enabled, ie. insmod brcmfmac.ko
debug=0x1416

Arend
