Subject: [PATCH] p54: fix sequence no. accounting off-by-one error
Date: Thu, 6 Jan 2011 23:47:52 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <201101062347.53191.chunkeey@googlemail.com> (raw)
P54_HDR_FLAG_DATA_OUT_SEQNR is meant to tell the
firmware that "the frame's sequence number has
already been set by the application."
Whereas IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ is set for
frames which lack a valid sequence number and
either the driver or firmware has to assign one.
Yup, it's the exact opposite!

Patch looks fairly harmless, so what can possibly go wrong ;)
