sys/net80211 : ieee80211_input.c
Log message:
Fix a corner case bug in Rx block ack window gap-wait timeout handling.
If ieee80211_input_ba_flush() was called when there was nothing to flush,
the (already pending) gap wait timeout was re-armed.
This is only correct if we flush at least one packet. Otherwise packets
that arrive at a constant rate of about 4-5 packets per second would
extend the gap-wait timeout until the block ack window fills up.
In extreme cases this can result in packets being queued for almost 20s.
Fix this by returning immediately from ieee80211_input_ba_flush() if
the first packet in the reordering buffer is missing.
This prevents the timeout from being re-armed.
Patch by Christian Ehrhardt. Tested by me on iwm(4) 7265.
