From d2941df8fbd9708035d66d889ada4d3d160170ce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2016 08:52:50 +0200 Subject: mac80211: recalculate min channel width on VHT opmode changes When an associated station changes its VHT operating mode this can/will affect the bandwidth it's using, and consequently we must recalculate the minimum bandwidth we need to use. Failure to do so can lead to one of two scenarios: 1) we use a too high bandwidth, this is benign 2) we use a too narrow bandwidth, causing rate control and actual PHY configuration to be out of sync, which can in turn cause problems/crashes Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg --- net/mac80211/vht.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'net/mac80211/vht.c') diff --git a/net/mac80211/vht.c b/net/mac80211/vht.c index 6832bf6ab69f..43e45bb660bc 100644 --- a/net/mac80211/vht.c +++ b/net/mac80211/vht.c @@ -527,8 +527,10 @@ void ieee80211_vht_handle_opmode(struct ieee80211_sub_if_data *sdata, u32 changed = __ieee80211_vht_handle_opmode(sdata, sta, opmode, band); - if (changed > 0) + if (changed > 0) { + ieee80211_recalc_min_chandef(sdata); rate_control_rate_update(local, sband, sta, changed); + } } void ieee80211_get_vht_mask_from_cap(__le16 vht_cap, -- cgit v1.2.3
