[PATCH 2/2] wl12xx: discard corrupted packets in RX

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

 



When packets arrive with a RX descriptor indicating corruption, discard
them.

In general white-list the RX descriptor status to prevent rouge data
from being sent up.
