From e039fa4a4195ac4ee895e6f3d1334beed63256fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Thu, 15 May 2008 12:55:29 +0200 Subject: mac80211: move TX info into skb->cb This patch converts mac80211 and all drivers to have transmit information and status in skb->cb rather than allocating extra memory for it and copying all the data around. To make it fit, a union is used where only data that is necessary for all steps is kept outside of the union. A number of fixes were done by Ivo, as well as the rt2x00 part of this patch.
