[PATCH] mac80211: Add RX flag to indicate ICV stripped

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

 



From: David Spinadel <david.spinadel@xxxxxxxxx>

Add a flag that indicates that the WEP ICV was stripped from an
RX packet, allowing the device to not transfer that if it's
already checked.
