    [PATCH] hostap: Fix skb->cb use for TX meta data · 5bee720f
    Jouni Malinen 提交于
    Old AP mode code for power saving was using skb->cb for couple of
    flags before the more generic 802.11 TX code started using the same
    buffer for struct hostap_skb_tx_data. This resulted in the power save
    code corrupting the magic value in beginning of the buffer and TX code
    dropping the power saved packets because of this for the case where
    STAs send PS-Poll frames with PwrMgmt flag set.
    
    This patch modifies the power save code to use the same struct
    hostap_skb_tx_data as rest of the TX path in order to avoid corrupting
    the data in skb->cb.
    
    In addition, this patch reorders fields in the structure and makes
    them use smaller types in order to make the structure fit in skb->cb
    on 64-bit hosts.
