[PATCH v5] Fix regression in mesh forwarding path.

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

 



From: Javier Cardona <javier@xxxxxxxxxxx>

The removal of the master netdev broke the mesh forwarding path.  This patch
fixes it by using the new internal 'pending' queue.

As a result of this change, mesh forwarding no longer does the inefficient
802.11 -> 802.3 -> 802.11 conversion that was done before.

[Changes since v1]
Suggested by Johannes:
 - Select queue before adding to mpath queue
 - ieee80211_add_pending_skb -> ieee80211_add_pending_skbs
 - Remove unnecessary header wme.h
