[PATCH v2 1/6] mac80211: mesh: fix potentially unaligned access

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

The pointer here points directly into the frame, so the
access is potentially unaligned. Use get_unaligned_le16
to avoid that.

Fixes: 3f52b7e328c5 ("mac80211: mesh power save basics")
