You could be right, but please explain, I don't understand:
k can only increment if ath_rc_priv->valid_phy_ratecnt[i] != 0
for i = 0 to WLAN_RC_PHY_MAX,
A few lines above these `ath_rc_priv->valid_phy_ratecnt[]'
are initialized to 0.
Say there was no working rate, and we call ath_rc_init_validrates(),
then in ath_rc_init_validrates()
ath_rc_priv->valid_phy_ratecnt[] can be initialized in this loop:
for (i = 0; i < rate_table->rate_cnt; i++) {
...
}
but where is this rate_cnt initialized?
[r...@zoinx linux-git]$ git grep rate_cnt
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/debug.c: max = 80 +
sc->cur_rate_table->rate_cnt * 64;
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/debug.c: for (i = 0; i <
sc->cur_rate_table->rate_cnt; i++) {
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/main.c: if (rate_table->rate_cnt > ATH_RATE_MAX)
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/main.c: maxrates = rate_table->rate_cnt;
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/rc.c: for (i = 0; i <
rate_table->rate_cnt; i++) {
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/rc.c: for (j = 0; j <
rate_table->rate_cnt; j++) {
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/rc.c: for (j = 0; j <
rate_table->rate_cnt; j++) {
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/rc.c: if ((tx_rate < 0) || (tx_rate
> rate_table->rate_cnt))
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/rc.h: int rate_cnt;
