[PATCH for v5.16] iwlwifi: mvm: don't crash on invalid rate w/o STA

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

If we get to the WARN_ONCE(..., "Got a HT rate (...)", ...)
here with a NULL sta, then we crash because mvmsta is bad
and we try to dereference it. Fix that by printing -1 as the
state if no station was given.
