commit: 4dc217df68a17a57f8464c74c1b4785e40bddf77 From: Felix Fietkau <[email protected]> Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2011 15:30:38 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix a crash in minstrel_ht in HT mode with no supported MCS rates
When a client connects in HT mode but does not provide any valid MCS rates, the function that finds the next sample rate gets stuck in an infinite loop. Fix this by falling back to legacy rates if no usable MCS rates are found. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Signed-off-by: John W.
