The driver called ieee80211_rx in hardware interrupt context. This has been against the intention of the ieee80211_rx function. It caused a bug in the crypto routines used by WPA. This patch calls ieee80211_rx in a tasklet. Signed-off-by: Ulrich Kunitz <kune@deine-taler.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
README ------ This directory is mostly for Wireless LAN drivers, in their various incarnations (ISA, PCI, Pcmcia...). This separate directory is needed because a lot of driver work on different bus (typically PCI + Pcmcia) and share 95% of the code. This allow the code and the config options to be in one single place instead of scattered all over the driver tree, which is never 100% satisfactory. Note : if you want more info on the topic of Wireless LANs, you are kindly invited to have a look at the Wireless Howto : http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/ Some Wireless LAN drivers, like orinoco_cs, require the use of Wireless Tools to be configured : http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Tools.html Special notes for distribution maintainers : 1) wvlan_cs will be discontinued soon in favor of orinoco_cs 2) Please add Wireless Tools support in your scripts Have fun...
