[PATCH 08/31] mac80211: free skb in WEP error case

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

If, for some strange reason, ieee80211_wep_encrypt() fails in
ieee80211_send_auth() free the SKB instead of sending out the
useless frame, in addition to the warning. This can't really
happen since the SKB was freshly allocated.
