    mac80211: Copy tx'ed beacons to monitor mode · 35afa588
    Helmut Schaa 提交于
    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.
