[PATCH 59/65] staging: wfx: ensure that packet_id is unique

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

 



From: Jérôme Pouiller <jerome.pouiller@xxxxxxxxxx>

In current code, packet_id is derivated from mac802.11 packet sequence
number, but this number is only unique for a station. It is not
sufficient.
