Subject: Strange code in routine wlc_phy_radio_init_2057()
Date: Mon, 05 Dec 2011 19:30:14 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4EDD7026.9000308@lwfinger.net> (raw)

In looking at the support code for Type 2057 radios in brcmsmac, I noticed the 
following routine:

static void wlc_phy_radio_init_2057(struct brcms_phy *pi)
{
         struct radio_20xx_regs *regs_2057_ptr = NULL;

         if (NREV_IS(pi->pubpi.phy_rev, 7)) {
                 regs_2057_ptr = regs_2057_rev4;
         } else if (NREV_IS(pi->pubpi.phy_rev, 8)
                    || NREV_IS(pi->pubpi.phy_rev, 9)) {
                 switch (pi->pubpi.radiorev) {
                 case 5:
                         if (pi->pubpi.radiover == 0x0)
                                 regs_2057_ptr = regs_2057_rev5;
                         else if (pi->pubpi.radiover == 0x1)
                                 regs_2057_ptr = regs_2057_rev5v1;
                         else
                                 break;
                 case 7:
                         regs_2057_ptr = regs_2057_rev7;
                         break;
                 case 8:
                         regs_2057_ptr = regs_2057_rev8;
                         break;
                 default:
                         break;
                 }
         }
         wlc_phy_init_radio_regs_allbands(pi, regs_2057_ptr);
}

I do not think that the code for phy revisions 8 or 9, and radio revision 5 is 
correct. When the radio version is 0, or 1, the case statement will fall through 
to the radio revision 7 case, thereby negating the logic that sets regs_2057_ptr 
for case 5.

I think the following patch will fix it:
