[PATCH v1] wifi: mac80211_hwsim: fix race condition in pending packet

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

 



A pending packet uses a cookie as an unique key, but it can be duplicated
because it didn't use atomic operators.

And also, a pending packet can be null in hwsim_tx_info_frame_received_nl
due to race condition with mac80211_hwsim_stop.

For this,
 * Use an atomic type and operator for a cookie
 * Add a lock around the loop for pending packets
