[PATCH 0/6] mac80211: use correct operating channel

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

 



A number of places in mac80211 are erroneously using the
*current* channel (hw.conf.channel) rather than the current
*operating* channel (oper_channel). This is wrong as the
current channel can change during scan/roc and therefore
doesn't point to the correct channel all the time so that
due to races the wrong channel might be used.

Address this and use the correct channel in all places.
Some keep using hw.conf.channel, of course, since they
really do need the current channel.
