[PATCH v2] mac80211: fix insane values that sometimes appear in inactive_time

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

 



In the first 5 minutes after boot (time of INITIAL_JIFFIES),
ieee80211_sta_last_active() returns zero if last_ack is zero. This
leads to "inactive time" showing jiffies_to_msecs(jiffies).

 # iw wlan0 station get fc:ec:da:64:a6:dd
 Station fc:ec:da:64:a6:dd (on wlan0)
	inactive time:	4294894049 ms
	.
	.
	connected time:	70 seconds

Fix by returning last_rx if last_ack == 0.
