Linville" <linville@...driver.com> Subject: [ 22/68] ath9k_hw: avoid possible infinite loop in ar9003_get_pll_sqsum_dvc From: Greg KH <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> 3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <mohammed@....qualcomm.com> commit f18e3c6b67f448ec47b3a5b242789bd3d5644879 upstream. "ath9k: Fix softlockup in AR9485" with commit id 64bc1239c790e051ff677e023435d770d2ffa174 fixed the reported issue, yet its better to avoid the possible infinite loop in ar9003_get_pll_sqsum_dvc by having a timeout as suggested by ath9k maintainers. http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg92126.html. Based on my testing PLL's locking measurement is done in ~200us (2 iterations). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
