[PATCH] mac80211: enable to inject a-msdu frames using monitor interface

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

 



Problem: When injecting an A-MSDU using a PF_PACKET socket, the qos flag
IEEE80211_QOS_CTL_A_MSDU_PRESENT is cleared.

How to reproduce: Inject a frame on a mac80211 hwsim monitor interface and
have tshark sniffing on this monitor interface.
You'll see the packet twice: Once with correct flag and once with flag
cleared. On hwsim0, you'll only see the packet with a cleared flag.

I guess the same is needed for packets with IEEE80211_TX_CTRL_AMSDU set.
