[PATCH] cfg80211: make stripping of 802.11 header optional from AMSDU

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

 



From: Yogesh Ashok Powar <yogeshp@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently the devices that have already stripped IEEE 802.11
header from the AMSDU SKB can not use ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s
routine. This patch enhances ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s() API by
changing mandatory removing of IEEE 802.11 header from AMSDU
to optional.
