commit6b583201faupstream. It was reported on OpenWrt bug tracking system[1], that several users are affected by the endless reboot of their routers if they configure 5GHz interface with channel 44 or 48. The reboot loop is caused by the following excessive number of WARN_ON messages: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at backports-4.19.23-1/net/mac80211/rx.c:4516 ieee80211_rx_napi+0x1fc/0xa54 [mac80211] as the messages are being correctly emitted by the following guard: case RX_ENC_LEGACY: if (WARN_ON(status->rate_idx >= sband->n_bitrates)) as the rate_idx is in this case erroneously set to 251 (0xfb). This fix simply converts previously used magic number to proper constant and guards against substraction which is leading to the currently observed underflow. 1. https://bugs.openwrt.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=2218 Fixes:854783444b("mwl8k: properly set receive status rate index on 5 GHz receive") Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Tested-by: Eubert Bao <bunnier@gmail.com> Reported-by: Eubert Bao <bunnier@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Petr Štetiar <ynezz@true.cz> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
