Message-ID: <200902241514.31289.mb@bu3sch.de> (raw)
Any idea why this could happen?

We have the following code in b43:
604 if (phystat0 & B43_RX_PHYST0_OFDM)
605 status.rate_idx = b43_plcp_get_bitrate_idx_ofdm(plcp,
606 phytype == B43_PHYTYPE_A);
607 else
608 status.rate_idx = b43_plcp_get_bitrate_idx_cck(plcp);
609 if (unlikely(status.rate_idx == -1))
610 goto drop;
So IMO the only possible way for the WARN_ON to trigger is
(status->rate_idx >= sband->n_bitrates)
Why is rate_idx bigger than n_bitrates?
