Subject: [PATCH] ath9k_htc: Fix packet injection
Date: Mon, 3 Jan 2011 21:22:18 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <19745.61618.822195.30087@gargle.gargle.HOWL> (raw)
From: Sujith Manoharan <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com>
To inject a packet in monitor mode, a dummy station has
to be associated with the monitor interface in the target.
Failing to do this would result in a firmware crash on the device.
