[PATCH] mac80211: exit cooked monitor RX early if there are none

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

If there are no cooked monitor interfaces, there's
no point in building the radiotap RX header for the
frame and iterating the interface list.
