From efa53ebe0d2f50bf342eb1976824f59bba9941eb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zhu Yi Date: Mon, 13 Nov 2006 11:32:50 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] ieee80211: Fix kernel panic when QoS is enabled The 802.11 header length is affected by the wireless mode (WDS or not) and type (QoS or not). We should use the variable hdr_len instead of the hard coded IEEE80211_3ADDR_LEN, otherwise we may touch invalid memory. Signed-off-by: Zhu Yi Signed-off-by: John W.
