[PATCH] mac80211: fix double-start of remain-on-channel

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

When a remain-on-channel item is deleted, we remove it
from the list and then start the next item. However,
if it wasn't actually the first item then calling
ieee80211_start_next_roc() is wrong as it will start
the first item -- even if that was already started.

Fix the two places that do this and add a warning to
prevent the problem from reoccurring.
