Subject: [PATCH 2/4] mac80211: QoS multicast frames have No Ack policy
Date: Fri, 28 Oct 2011 22:05:30 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1319864732-11286-2-git-send-email-thomas@cozybit.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1319864732-11286-1-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.
