Subject: [PATCH rtw-next 12/14] wifi: rtw89: phy: skip trailing 8-byte zeros of PHY status IE for RTL8922D
Date: Wed, 6 May 2026 21:09:58 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260506131000.1706298-13-pkshih@realtek.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260506131000.1706298-1-pkshih@realtek.com>

Hardware reports a list of PHY status IE. In monitor mode, IE-09 of
PHY status is enabled, and the report contains trailing 8-byte zeros,
causing failed to parse and drop all IE information.

The 8 zeros are recognize as IE type 0, but length of type 0 must be
not 8 (reference to rtw89_phy_gen_def::physt_ie_len[0]).
Check and skip them.
