[PATCH] wl12xx: Add mutex protection for interface list

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

 



From: Juuso Oikarinen <juuso.oikarinen@xxxxxxxxx>

The interface list maintained in main.c is not mutex protected. This could
cause issues, as the list is accessed from notifier chains.
