[PATCH] mac80211: do not call rate control .tx_status before .rate_init

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

 



Most rate control implementations assume .get_rate and .tx_status are only
called once the per-station data has been fully initialized.
minstrel_ht crashes if this assumption is violated.
