[PATCH] mac80211: support adding IV-room in the skb for CCMP keys

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

 



Some cards can generate CCMP IVs in HW, but require the space for the IV
to be pre-allocated in the frame at the correct offset. Add a key flag
that allows us to achieve this.
