[PATCH 0/3] fixes for 2.6.33 and stable

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

 



We include three fixes for 2.6.33, all of which target stable also.

The first is a fix to a recently submitted patch "iwlwifi: Fix to set correct ht
configuration"

With the second two patches we start to address
http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2160 where it can be
seen that there are instances where the number of freed tfds are negative.
We include two patches to (1) prevent the problem from
occuring, and (2) prevent the problem from propagating when it does occur.
Unfortunately "iwlwifi: sanity check before counting number of tfds can be free" is not
the only fix needed for this situation to occur, hence "iwlwifi: error checking
for number of tfds in queue"  is needed while this problem is being
investigated further.

These patches are also available from wireless-2.6 branch on
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/iwlwifi-2.6.git
