From 0016d3201753b59f3ae84b868fe66c86ad256f19 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2020 09:05:32 +0100 Subject: nl80211: fix NL80211_ATTR_CHANNEL_WIDTH attribute type The new opmode notification used this attribute with a u8, when it's documented as a u32 and indeed used in userspace as such, it just happens to work on little-endian systems since userspace isn't doing any strict size validation, and the u8 goes into the lower byte. Fix this.
