[PATCH 1/2] wl1271: Fix scan failure detection

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

 



From: Juuso Oikarinen <juuso.oikarinen@xxxxxxxxx>

In scan_complete_work, because the mutex is released before accessing the
scan->failed flag, it is possible for unfounded hardware recovery rounds
to be executed.

Fix this.
