This patch fixes mac80211 to not use the skb->cb over the queue step from virtual interfaces to the master. The patch also, for now, disables aggregation because that would still require requeuing, will fix that in a separate patch. There are two other places (software requeue and powersaving stations) where requeue can happen, but that is not currently used by any drivers/not possible to use respectively.

At least it works on my WPA network, I haven't actually tested a broken kernel. drivers/net/wireless/ath5k/base.c | 2 - drivers/net/wireless/b43/xmit.c | 2 - drivers/net/wireless/b43legacy/xmit.c | 2 - drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-tx.c | 2 - drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl3945-base.c | 2 - drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt2x00mac.c | 2 - include/linux/skbuff.h | 5 ++ include/net/mac80211.h | 6 --- net/core/skbuff.c | 3 + net/mac80211/main.c | 8 ---- net/mac80211/mlme.c | 8 +--- net/mac80211/tx.c | 47 ++++++++++++---------------- net/mac80211/wme.c | 3 + 13 files changed, 40 insertions(+), 52 deletions(-) --- everything.orig/include/net/mac80211.h 2008-07-29 09:08:16.000000000 +0200 +++ everything/include/net/mac80211.h 2008-07-29 11:07:41.000000000 +0200 @@ -206,8 +206,6 @@ struct ieee80211_bss_conf { * These flags are used with the @flags member of &ieee80211_tx_info. * * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS: request TX status callback for this frame. - * @IEEE80211_TX_CTL_DO_NOT_ENCRYPT: send this frame without encryption;
