[PATCH 2/2] mac80211: Fix invalid length passed to IE parser for PLINK CONFIRM frames

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

 



From: David Woo <xinhua_wu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The length of the fixed portion of plink confirm frames is 4 bytes longer than
the other plink_action frames.  This path corrects an error in the length
adjustment done for these type of frames.
