[PATCH] mac80211: make rx radiotap header more flexible

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

 



use hw flags and rx flags to determine which fields are present in the header
and use all available information from the driver.

make sure radiotap header starts at a naturally aligned address (mod 8) for
all radiotap fields.
