[PATCH] rtlwifi: rtl8192cu: Fix error in pointer arithmetic

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

 



From: Mark Cave-Ayland <mark.cave-ayland@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

An error in calculating the offset in an skb causes the driver to read
essential device info from the wrong locations. The main effect is that
automatic gain calculations are nonsense.
