[PATCH 2/2] iwlagn: fix offchannel TX bug

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

In the case where remain-on-channel rather than
offchannel TX should be used, my offchannel TX
patch introduced a bug because mac80211 will
use the now-freed SKB.

iwlagn shouldn't free the SKB when it returns 1
here since then the SKB will still be used.
