Subject: re: cfg80211: add 802.11ad (60gHz band) support
Date: Tue, 3 Jul 2012 13:53:42 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120703105342.GA29879@elgon.mountain> (raw)

Hello Vladimir Kondratiev,

The patch 3a0c52a6d82c: "cfg80211: add 802.11ad (60gHz band) support" 
from Jul 2, 2012, leads to the following warning:
drivers/net/wireless/mac80211_hwsim.c:1841 init_mac80211_hwsim()
	 warn: buffer overflow 'data->bands' 2 <= 2

drivers/net/wireless/mac80211_hwsim.c
  1839  
  1840                  for (band = IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ; band < IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS; band++) {
                                                                ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
We raised IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS to 3.

  1841                          struct ieee80211_supported_band *sband = &data->bands[band];
                                                                                ^^^^^^^^^^^
This only has 2 elements still.

  1842                          switch (band) {
  1843                          case IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ:

It causes a bogus dereference later.

regards,
dan carpenter
