Subject: [PATCH v4 2/4] mac80211: QoS multicast frames have No Ack policy
Date: Thu, 3 Nov 2011 21:11:11 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1320379873-30884-2-git-send-email-thomas@cozybit.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1320379873-30884-1-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.
Signed-off-by: Thomas Pedersen <thomas@cozybit.com>
v2: Use proper QoS Ack Policy ctl field mask (Christian)
v3: Clean up conditional (Johannes)
