From b8d9e572cb8794335fb4ba63ff962acaa3c4473b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nishant Sarmukadam Date: Tue, 6 Nov 2012 19:23:15 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] mwl8k: Set packet timestamp to 0 when life time expiry is not used Set tx packet timestamp to 0 in following scenarios:- - All packets in STA mode - Mgmt packets in AP mode - Eapol packets in AP mode In STA mode, this field is unused in the firmware. In AP mode, we should not be expiring mgmt and eapol frames. Setting timestamp to 0 will ensure that. Signed-off-by: Nishant Sarmukadam Signed-off-by: John W.
