[PATCH 07/20] wifi: mac80211: add consistency check for compat chandef

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

 



From: Anjaneyulu <pagadala.yesu.anjaneyulu@xxxxxxxxx>

Add NULL check for compat variable to avoid crash in
cfg80211_chandef_compatible() if it got called with
some mixed up channel context where not all the users
compatible with each other, which shouldn't happen.
