Subject: Re: [PATCH] airo: fix setting zero length WEP key
Date: Tue, 02 Feb 2010 13:32:41 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100202183241.A529D2B0054@apps0.cs.toronto.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: sgruszka's message of Tue, 02 Feb 2010 15:34:50 +0100. <1265121290-2969-1-git-send-email-sgruszka@redhat.com>

| Patch prevents call set_wep_key() with zero key length. That fix long
| standing regression since commit c0380693520b1a1e4f756799a0edc379378b462a
| "airo: clean up WEP key operations". Additionally print call trace when
| someone will try to use improper parameters, and remove key.len = 0
| assignment, because it is in not possible code path.

ab658321f32770b903a4426e2a6fae0392757755. This is the same machine I
bisected the problem on.)
