IEEE80211_RX(9) The basic mac80211 driver inte IEEE80211_RX(9)
NAME
ieee80211_rx - receive frame
SYNOPSIS
void ieee80211_rx(struct ieee80211_hw * hw, struct sk_buff * skb);
ARGUMENTS
hw
the hardware this frame came in on
skb
the buffer to receive, owned by mac80211 after this call
DESCRIPTION
Use this function to hand received frames to mac80211. The receive buffer in skb must start with an IEEE 802.11 header.
This function may not be called in IRQ context. Calls to this function for a single hardware must be synchronized against each other. Calls
to this function, ieee80211_rx_ni and ieee80211_rx_irqsafe may not be mixed for a single hardware.
In process context use instead ieee80211_rx_ni.
