[PATCH] iw: Change socket configuration to avoid buffer allocation error

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

 



Move  nl_socket_set_buffer_size() to be called after genl_connect(),
otherwise nl_socket_set_buffer_size() always returns an NLE_BAD_SOCK
error because sk->s_fd is equal to -1 at that stage.
