Do you just clean up current ieee80211 code to still do 802.11 <-> 802.3
conversion inside the driver or you plan to handle real 802.11 frames in
the stack like this?

We are trying to handle real 802.11 frames. Have you made any progress
in your work since posting that patch? If so, could you please post it
to netdev (or to us)?

No much progress since that. I planned to add a new type SOCK_80211 to
PF_PACKET domain, so that user space can send packets through the 80211
stack but don't need to build 802.11 headers themselves. This can be
used by programs like wpa_supplicant. Do you know some better way to do
this?

Thanks,
