[PATCH] iwlwifi regression in 20111205 merge

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

 



  It looks like the regression was introduced between 20111202 and
20111205 (linux-next tree). Symptoms: connection to AP seem to be
established, but no data goes though it in any way. Tested on intel
5300.
  Peek at the changes have shown that it looks like at least part of
the code wasn't merged properly. It was originally committed into
iwl_agn.c but code in question was moved to iwl-mac80211.c.
  This patch puts code in place and my card works again.
  I hope this patch will be reviewed by people developing iwl
driver. Also, it is possible that some other iwl code didn't make it
though 20111205 merge as well, so this probably should be checked too.
  Please let me know if I can provide any more info.
  Thanks!
