From 964d2777438bf7687324243d38ade538d9bbfe3c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "John W. Linville" Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2008 14:12:21 -0400 Subject: iwlagn: avoid sleep in softirq context __ieee80211_tasklet_handler -> __ieee80211_rx -> __ieee80211_rx_handle_packet -> ieee80211_invoke_rx_handlers -> ieee80211_rx_h_decrypt -> ieee80211_crypto_tkip_decrypt -> ieee80211_tkip_decrypt_data -> iwl4965_mac_update_tkip_key -> iwl_scan_cancel_timeout -> msleep Ooops! Avoid the sleep by changing iwl_scan_cancel_timeout with iwl_scan_cancel and simply returning on failure if the scan persists. This will cause hardware decryption to fail and we'll handle a few more frames with software decryption. Signed-off-by: John W.
