[PATCH 3/4] wlcore: do not send stop fwlog cmd if fw is hanged

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

 



If the driver received a watchdog interrupt then the
assumption is that the fw is hanged. Avoid sending
the stop fwlog command in case of a watchdog recovey
to avoid waiting for the 2 seconds timeout of the command.
