[PATCH] b43: Fix DMA buffer size handling

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

 



This fixes hidden bugs in the size handling of the DMA buffers.
This sets the RX buffer size to the theoretical max packet size and
fixes passing of the size values to the device (must not subtract the header offset).

These bugs are hidden and don't actually trigger due to the magic +100
offset for the buffer size.

John, no need to push this as bugfix. Just push it with the next round of
features. This bug has always been there and it's hidden. So it doesn't
trigger for anybody.
