As for as my hardware is concerned i could not figure out whether
there is support for injection. I know that the brcmsmac supports only
the monitoring mode. Since there is only partial support from
brcmsmac, i would like to patch to support injection.
Since iam a beginner, i don't know how to start the driver developement.
Can you please provide some documentation so that it would be helpful
in my development?
