Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] mac80211: QoS multicast frames have No Ack policy
Date: Mon, 31 Oct 2011 00:12:39 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1320045161-16144-2-git-send-email-thomas@cozybit.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1320045161-16144-1-git-send-email-thomas@cozybit.com>
Previously QoS multicast frames had the Normal Acknowledgment QoS
control bits set. This would cause broadcast frames to be discarded by
peers with which we have a BA session, since their sequence number would
fall outside the allowed range. Set No Ack QoS control bits on multicast
QoS frames and filter these in de-aggregation code.
