Attached is 1-st iteration for generic 802.11 stack framework.
Based on code from Dave.
I make it compile for 2.6 and wrote simple skeleton for native 802.11 driver.
This skeleton is able to simulate Rx using ioctl; perl script to invoke ioctl
included. Argument for script is binary frame image.
I removed all code for 802.11 header removal from p80211_type_trans for
several reasons:
- I'd like to have all frames coming to stack with the same 802.11 header,
this will help for sniffer
- header removal for data is a bit more complex: we should determine QoS
header and strip 24 or 26 bytes.
- I'd like to do fragmentation and reassembly on stack, not in driver.
Nothing functional yet, but one can start debugging stack using Rx imitation;
and driver do print packets it gets to Tx.
P.S. question:
I saw in all xxx_type_trans functions, skb->dev never assigned, it is done by
driver instead. What is the reason? Why not assign skb->dev in
xxx_type_trans?
