[PATCH v2 2/3] rtlwifi: rtl8192cu: Calculate descriptor checksum correctly for BE

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

 



This driver requires a checksum for the descriptors so that the wifi
chip is assured that the USB transmission was correct. These entries
are little-endian, but the driver was always using cpu order in the
calculation. As a result, the driver failed on BE hardware.
