[PATCH 2/2] brcmsmac: rework of mac80211 .flush() callback operation

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

 



This patch addresses a long standing issue of the driver with the
mac80211 .flush() callback. Since implementing the .flush() callback
a number of issues have been fixed, but a WARN_ON_ONCE() was still
triggered because the flush takes too much time. The flush now
makes use of a waitqueue and still has a timeout on which a warning
is given.
