  • 5c05803a3   mac80211: document only injected *_RADIOTAP_* flags ... Browse Code »

    Not the internal flags but the radiotap flags are parsed when the monitor
    injected frames are prepared for transmission. Thus the documentation
    should only document these.

  • 646e76bb5   mac80211: parse VHT info in injected frames ... Browse Code »

    Add VHT radiotap parsing support to ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap().
    That capability has been tested using a d-link dir-860l rev b1 running
    OpenWrt trunk and mt76 driver

    Drivers/devices without their own rate control algorithm can get the
    information what rates they should use from either the radiotap header of
    injected frames or from the rate control algorithm. But the parsing of the
    legacy rate information from the radiotap header was removed in commit
    e6a9854b05c1 ("mac80211/drivers: rewrite the rate control API").

    The removal of this feature heavily reduced the usefulness of frame
    injection when wanting to simulate specific transmission behavior. Having
    rate parsing together with MCS rates and retry support allows a fine
    grained selection of the tx behavior of injected frames for these kind of
    tests.

  • 58d4185e3   [MAC80211]: improve radiotap injection ... Browse Code »

    This improves radiotap injection by removing the shortcut over TX handlers
    that led to BUGS when injecting frames without setting a rate and also
    resulted in various other quirks. Now, TX handlers are run but some
    information that was present in the radiotap header is used instead of
    automatic settings.
