[PATCH v2 0/8] mesh fixes

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

 



A series of fixes and cleanups to the mesh stack.
There were two contentious patches in the first version:  

1. mac80211: Fix RCU pointer dereference in mesh_path_discard_frame()

  This has been fixed (see version patch description).

2.  mac80211: Limit amount of HWMP frames and forwarded data packets in
   queues on mesh interfaces

This has been removed from the set until we figure out a more elegant way to
solve the problem it tried to fix.

Cheers,

Javier Cardona (8):
