[PATCH] Revert "wifi: iwlegacy: do not skip frames with bad FCS"

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

 



This reverts commit 02b682d54598f61cbb7dbb14d98ec1801112b878.

Alf reports that this commit causes the connection to eventually die on
iwl4965. The reason is that rx_status.flag is zeroed after
RX_FLAG_FAILED_FCS_CRC is set and mac80211 doesn't know the received frame is
corrupted.
