[PATCH v3] d80211: Add software sequence support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Most hardware can keep track of sequence numbers themselves,
unfortunately *most* doesn't cover all devices. ;)
This patch will keep track of the (per-bss) sequence number
if the flag IEEE80211_HW_SOFTWARE_SEQUENCE has been set.

This 3rd version of the patch has the sequence number stored
in the ieee80211_sub_if_data structure.
