Subject: [PATCH 0/2] iwlwifi fixes for 2.6.34
Date: Thu, 13 May 2010 14:49:43 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1273787385-9248-1-git-send-email-reinette.chatre@intel.com> (raw)
We include two late fixes hoping to make it into 2.6.34.
"iwlwifi: fix internal scan race" fixes a kernel crash caused by
accessing a NULL pointer. More can be read in
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15824
"iwlagn: work around rate scaling reset delay" is already in
wireless-next-2.6 but has since been shown to be an issue in 2.6.34 also.
This fixes spurious firmware restarts that has been documented in
http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2173 , but it is the
community report tracked in
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15782 that prompted us sending
this fix to wireless-2.6 also.
These patches are also available from wireless-2.6 branch on
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/iwlwifi-2.6.git
