[PATCH] mac80211: sanity check CW_min/CW_max towards driver

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

There's no reason to ever set invalid CW_min/CW_max to the
drivers, we should catch it in higher layers. However, the
consequences of setting it wrong can be quite severe, so
double-check at a low level and error out for invalid data.
