Subject: [PATCH 1/6] staging: rtl8188eu: use safe iterator in rtw_free_network_queue
Date: Sun, 16 May 2021 18:06:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210516160613.30489-1-martin@kaiser.cx> (raw)

rtw_free_network_queue iterates over the scanned wireless networks and
calls _rtw_free_network for each of them. In some cases,
_rtw_free_network removes a network from the list.

We have to use list_for_each_safe if we remove list entries while we
iterate over a list.

Fixes: 23017c8842d2 ("staging: rtl8188eu: Use list iterators and helpers")
Signed-off-by: Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>

Without this patch, it's easy to get the driver into an endless loop by
scanning, connecting and disconnecting repeatedly.

wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /path/to/my/config...
while true ; do
   sleep 1
   wpa_cli reconfigure     
   wpa_cli add_network
   wpa_cli set_network 0 ssid ...
   wpa_cli set_network 0 psk ...
   wpa_cli select_network 0
   sleep 6
   wpa_cli status
   wpa_cli disconnect 0
done
