NAME

       ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s - decode an IEEE 802.11n A-MSDU frame

SYNOPSIS

       void ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s(struct sk_buff * skb, struct sk_buff_head * list, const u8 * addr, enum nl80211_iftype iftype,
				     const unsigned int extra_headroom, bool has_80211_header);

ARGUMENTS

       skb
	   The input IEEE 802.11n A-MSDU frame.

       list
	   The output list of 802.3 frames. It must be allocated and initialized by by the caller.

       addr
	   The device MAC address.

       iftype
	   The device interface type.

       extra_headroom
	   The hardware extra headroom for SKBs in the list.

       has_80211_header
	   Set it true if SKB is with IEEE 802.11 header.

DESCRIPTION

       Decode an IEEE 802.11n A-MSDU frame and convert it to a list of 802.3 frames. The list will be empty if the decode fails. The skb is
       consumed after the function returns.

NAME

     ieee80211_input, ieee80211_decap, ieee80211_recv_mgmt -- software 802.11 stack input functions

SYNOPSIS

     #include <net80211/ieee80211_var.h>
     #include <net80211/ieee80211_proto.h>

     void
     ieee80211_input(struct ieee80211com *ic, struct mbuf *m, struct ieee80211_node *ni, int rssi, u_int32_t rstamp);

     struct mbuf *
     ieee80211_decap(struct ieee80211com *ic, struct mbuf *m);

     void
     ieee80211_recv_mgmt(struct ieee80211com *ic, struct mbuf *m0, struct ieee80211_node *ni, int subtype, int rssi, u_int32_t rstamp);

DESCRIPTION

     These functions process received 802.11 frames.

     The ieee80211_input() function takes an mbuf chain m containing a complete 802.11 frame from the driver ic and passes it to the software
     802.11 stack for input processing.  The ni argument specifies an instance of struct ieee80211_node (which may be driver-specific) represent-
     ing the node from which the frame was received.  The arguments rssi and stamp are typically derived from on-card data structures; they are
     used for recording the signal strength and time received of the frame respectively.

     The ieee80211_decap() function performs decapsulation of the 802.11 frame in the mbuf chain m received by the device ic, taking the form of
     the 802.11 address fields into account; the structure of 802.11 addresses vary according to the intended source and destination of the frame.
     It is typically called from within ieee80211_input().

     The ieee80211_recv_mgmt() performs input processing for 802.11 management frames.	It is typically called from within ieee80211_input().
