[RFC 1/2] wifi: mac80211: add a new field in ieee80211_rx_status for link id

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

 



In MLO, when the address translation from link to MLD is done
in fw/hw, it is necessary to be able to have some information
on the link on which the frame has been received. Extend the
rx API to include link_id in ieee80211_rx_status.
