[PATCH 04/12] iwlwifi: pcie: allow sending pre-built A-MSDUs

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

 



From: Eliad Peller <eliadx.peller@xxxxxxxxx>

In case of A-MSDUs, the trans layer is taking care of building
the subframes (out of the given skb), according to the given gso_size.

However, in some testing flows, we want to build the whole A-MSDU
frame in a different place (e.g. userspace), and ask the driver
to send it as-is.

In case of gso_size==0, simply treat the frame as normal-frame,
although the A-MSDU flag is set.
