If the hw uses up all the dma buffers in one go, there's a good chance we can send the skb to mac80211 while the hardware is still using it. I guess an easy way to test would be to set the max rx buffers to 3 or so and watch the fireworks. -- Bob Copeland %% www.bobcopeland.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
