[PATCH 09/11] wifi: mac80211: add support for the monitor SKIP_TX flag

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

 



Do not pass locally sent packets to monitor interfaces with this flag set.
Skip processing tx packets on the status call entirely if no monitor
interfaces without this flag are present.
