Subject: [PATCH 3/4] mac80211: move fragment flag to info flag as dont-fragment
Date: Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:01:25 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111007120217.261654601@sipsolutions.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20111007120122.982757001@sipsolutions.net
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
The purpose of this is two-fold:
1) by moving it out of tx_data.flags, we can in
another patch move the radiotap parsing so it
no longer is in the hotpath
2) if a device implements fragmentation but can
optionally skip it, the radiotap request for
not doing fragmentation may be honoured
