From fc7c976dc7a565213393ce700d4a6105f037bf20 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Felix Fietkau Date: Mon, 7 Feb 2011 12:05:00 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix the skb cloned check in the tx path Using skb_header_cloned to check if it's safe to write to the skb is not enough - mac80211 also touches the tailroom of the skb. Initially this check was only used to increase a counter, however this commit changed the code to also skip skb data reallocation if no extra head/tailroom was needed: commit 4cd06a344db752f513437138953af191cbe9a691 mac80211: skip unnecessary pskb_expand_head calls It added a regression at least with iwl3945, which is fixed by this patch.
