[PATCH] wifi: cfg80211: hold wiphy mutex for send_interface

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

Given all the locking rework in mac80211, we pretty much
need to get into the driver with the wiphy mutex held in
all callbacks. This is already mostly the case, but as
Johan reported, in the get_txpower it may not be true.

Lock the wiphy mutex around nl80211_send_iface(), then
is also around callers of nl80211_notify_iface(). This
is easy to do, fixes the problem, and aligns the locking
between various calls to it in different parts of the
code of cfg80211.

Fixes: 0e8185ce1dde ("wifi: mac80211: check wiphy mutex in ops")
