Subject: [patch] Hostap: copying wrong data prism2_ioctl_giwaplist()
Date: Fri, 9 Aug 2013 12:52:31 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130809095231.GD29282@elgon.mountain> (raw)
We want the data stored in "addr" and "qual", but the extra ampersands
mean we are copying stack data instead.
Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

Static checker stuff. Untested. Should probably be applied to -stable
as well.
