Contribution description
Instead of using the length byte from a received packet (that might be corrupted), use the number of bytes in the RX FIFO to determine the location of the CRC OK bit.
Testing procedure
Flashed this change on two CC2538s, started ping while under heavy Wi-Fi interference. In the case where the old
pkt_len
was not equal to the newcrc_loc
, the error from #20955 did not appear. Also, the reportedpkt_len
in this case is alwayscrc_loc + 128
, indicating that the receiver actually only uses the 7 LSBs from the length byte.Issues/PRs references
Fixes #20955.
