mac80211 configure rxfilter per HW, so we don't need this per channel.As I said before, I think there's value in mac80211 doing it per chanctx or even per vif, and it should be more efficient to do so. It's tempting to do it per vif and leave the chanctx work up to the driver, but perhaps with CSA and all that it gets complicated enough that doing it per chanctx in mac80211 would make sense?On the other hand, I think our device requires it per vif, so we'd probably have to do both. +Andrei, who was looking into this.
There's value in it, but I think it makes more sense to fix this bug now, and rework the code again later when mac80211 has support for per-vif or per-chanctx rxfilter. - Felix -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in
