Subject: mac80211: Copy tx'ed beacons to monitor mode
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=35afa588624c4f9e19a0edfbb51769b59c90bb0d;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

mac80211: Copy tx'ed beacons to monitor mode

When debugging wireless powersave issues on the AP side it's quite helpful
to see our own beacons that are transmitted by the hardware/driver. However,
this is not that easy since beacons don't pass through the regular TX queues.

Preferably drivers would call ieee80211_tx_status also for tx'ed beacons
but that's not always possible. Hence, just send a copy of each beacon
generated by ieee80211_beacon_get_tim to monitor devices when they are
getting fetched by the driver.

Also add a HW flag IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_TX_STATUS that can be used by
drivers to indicate that they report TX status for beacons.
