[PATCH] ath6kl:link speed is 0Mbps sometimes

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

 



The MSB of rate index from FW is used for sgi. But the ath6kl_wmi_get_rate
doesn't handle it. The access to wmi_rate_tbl array may be out of range
if sgi is 1. This may cause the return value of ath6kl_wmi_get_rate()
function is incorrect link rate. We add sgi adjustment to avoid such case.
