Strange code in routine wlc_phy_radio_init_2057()

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

 



In looking at the support code for Type 2057 radios in brcmsmac, I noticed the following routine:

static void wlc_phy_radio_init_2057(struct brcms_phy *pi)
{
        struct radio_20xx_regs *regs_2057_ptr = NULL;

        if (NREV_IS(pi->pubpi.phy_rev, 7)) {
                regs_2057_ptr = regs_2057_rev4;
        } else if (NREV_IS(pi->pubpi.phy_rev, 8)
                   || NREV_IS(pi->pubpi.phy_rev, 9)) {
                switch (pi->pubpi.radiorev) {
                case 5:
                        if (pi->pubpi.radiover == 0x0)
                                regs_2057_ptr = regs_2057_rev5;
                        else if (pi->pubpi.radiover == 0x1)
                                regs_2057_ptr = regs_2057_rev5v1;
                        else
                                break;
                case 7:
                        regs_2057_ptr = regs_2057_rev7;
                        break;
                case 8:
                        regs_2057_ptr = regs_2057_rev8;
                        break;
                default:
                        break;
                }
        }
        wlc_phy_init_radio_regs_allbands(pi, regs_2057_ptr);
}

I do not think that the code for phy revisions 8 or 9, and radio revision 5 is correct. When the radio version is 0, or 1, the case statement will fall through to the radio revision 7 case, thereby negating the logic that sets regs_2057_ptr for case 5.

I think the following patch will fix it:
