[PATCH V4 2/3] brcmfmac: detect firmware support for radiotap monitor frames

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

 



From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@xxxxxxxxxx>

Depending on used build-time options some firmwares may already include
radiotap header in passed monitor frames. Add a new feature flag to
store info about it. It's needed for proper handling of received frames
before passing them up.
