[PATCH v3] mac80211: fix control port tx status check

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

 



The initial control port tx status patch assumed, that
we have IEEE 802.11 frames, but actually ethernet frames
are stored in the ack skb. Fix this by checking for the
correct ethertype and skb protocol 802.3.

Also allow tx status reports for ETH_P_PREAUTH, as preauth
frames can also be send over the nl80211 control port.

v3: also check for ETH_P_PREAUTH
v2: use __be16, as suggested by Johannes Berg
