Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

Right now wcn->hal_buf is allocated in wcn36xx_start(). This is a problem since we should have setup all of the buffers we required by the time ieee80211_register_hw() is called. struct ieee80211_ops callbacks may run mac_start() and therefore wcn->hal_buf must be initialized prior to mac_start(). This is easily remediated by moving the allocation to probe() taking the opportunity to tidy up freeing memory by using devm_kmalloc(). Fixes: 8e84c258 ('wcn36xx: mac80211 driver for Qualcomm WCN3660/WCN3680 hardware') Signed-off-by:Bryan O'Donoghue <bryan.odonoghue@linaro.org>
