Replace each valid byte in pattern by 1 and don't care byte by 0: 10110111 1000 (0000) 1st byte of pattern corresponds to lower order bit in first byte of mask. And 9th byte of pattern corresponds to lower order bit in second byte of mask. With this logic the mask will be 11101101 00000001 = 0xed 0x01 Signed-off-by: Amitkumar Karwar Signed-off-by: Bing Zhao Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg --- diff --git a/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h b/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h index 9a2ecdc..b233211 100644 --- a/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h +++ b/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h @@ -2906,7 +2906,7 @@ enum nl80211_tx_power_setting { * corresponds to the lowest-order bit in the second byte of the mask. * For example: The match 00:xx:00:00:xx:00:00:00:00:xx:xx:xx (where * xx indicates "don't care") would be represented by a pattern of - * twelve zero bytes, and a mask of "0xed,0x07". + * twelve zero bytes, and a mask of "0xed,0x01". * Note that the pattern matching is done as though frames were not * 802.11 frames but 802.3 frames, i.e. the frame is fully unpacked * first (including SNAP header unpacking) and then matched.
