Subject: question regarding cfg80211 monitor modes
Date: Thu, 3 Dec 2009 11:48:46 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200912031148.46934.holgerschurig@gmail.com> (raw)
"iw wlan0 set type monitor" allows the following flags:
none: no special flags
fcsfail: show frames with FCS errors
control: show control frames
otherbss: show frames from other BSSes
cook: use cooked mode
However, I don't know how to map them to the Libertas' firmware
flags, which has
Libertas (bits can be ored)
Data frames 0x01
Mgmt frames but beacons 0x02
Beacons 0x04
So I guess that the following could be a translation table:
none 0x00
fcsfail -ENOTSUPP
control 0x02 | 0x04
But what should "otherbss" and "cook" be?
