[RFC/RFT v2] mac80211: Add NEED_ALIGNED4_SKBS hw flag

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

 



HW/driver should set NEED_ALIGNED4_SKBS flag in case require
aligned skbs to four-byte boundaries.

Before we have to do memmove() in the driver before
pass this to HW and memmove() back in tx completion.
This patch allow to save CPU and skip such memmoves.
For each skb we call memmove(ieee80211_hdrsize()) twice.

Currently this was tested with ath9k, both hw/sw crypt for
tkip/ccmp.
For sure more tests required (eg. fast path isn't used for
ath9k STA, wep sw crypt).
