[PATCH 2/3] ath10k: Fix locking for WEP keys

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

 



From: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

peer->keys needs to be protected by data_lock
since it is also accessed from the WMI path.

Both install() and clear() routines for peer
keys modify the key contents, so use the data_lock
to avoid races.
