From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@xxxxxxxxxx> After a bit long discussions in various e-mail threads I'm coming with this simple & small patchset. It isn't complete support for monitor mode but just a pair of preparing patches that should be clear & well discussed by now to make them acceptable. The main missing bit is code setting MONITOR_FMT_RADIOTAP which I expect Arend to handle soon, as he already has a patch using "sta_monitor" iovar for that. Then we have to discuss a flag for marking firmwares which are capable for tagging monitor frames. While still incomplete, I believe that with my previous patches, we can agree this is a good direction. Arend: if you find these 2 patches OK, could you ack them, to make it clear for Kalle if they look OK now (or not yet)? I'd be great if you could sent your "sta_monitor" work on top of this.
