mac80211 hardware flags

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

 



Hey,

Currently, it looks as though many drivers otherwise well-maintained
should be setting hardware flags but don't, this is often because of the
weird semantics of these flags, e.g. IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING.

Would anybody object to doing the dumb-down thing and having flags only
set for hardware to enable special features or work around hardware
limitations?

I propose to add some prose to mac80211.h that if you add flags it
should be done that way, and invert the meaning of
IEEE80211_HW_DATA_NULLFUNC_ACK now.

Any objections?
