Subject: [PATCH 1/2] brcm80211: smac: fix endless retry of A-MPDU transmissions
Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2012 18:38:22 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1330018703-2472-2-git-send-email-arend@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1330018703-2472-1-git-send-email-arend@broadcom.com>
The A-MPDU code checked against a retry limit, but it was using
the wrong variable to do so. This patch fixes this to assure
proper retry mechanism.
This problem had a side-effect causing the mac80211 flush callback
to remain waiting forever as well. That side effect has been fixed
by commit by Stanislaw Gruszka:
commit f96b08a7e6f69c0f0a576554df3df5b1b519c479
Date: Tue Jan 17 12:38:50 2012 +0100
