[PATCH] ieee80211: Fix TKIP, repeated fragmentation problem, and payload_size reporting
tree 8428e9f510e6ad6c77baec89cb57374842abf733 parent d78bfd3ddae9c422dd350159110f9c4d7cfc50de author Liu Hong <hong.liu@intel.com> 1124446520 -0500 committer James Ketrenos <jketreno@linux.intel.com> 1127313183 -0500 Fix TKIP, repeated fragmentation problem, and payload_size reporting 1. TKIP encryption Originally, TKIP encryption issues msdu + mpdu encryption on every fragment. Change the behavior to msdu encryption on the whole packet, then mpdu encryption on every fragment. 2. Avoid repeated fragmentation when !host_encrypt. We only need do fragmentation when using host encryption. Otherwise we only need pass the whole packet to driver, letting driver do the fragmentation. 3. change the txb->payload_size to correct value FW will use this value to determine whether to do fragmentation. If we pass the wrong value, fw may cut on the wrong bound which will make decryption fail when we do host encryption. NOTE: This requires changing drivers (hostap) that have extra_prefix_len used within them (structure member name change).
