From dacb6f1d8fa5200efc4e609fe63a750b960993b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: matthieu castet Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2009 22:16:18 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211 : fix unaligned rx skb mac80211 is checking is the skb is aligned on 32 bit boundary. But it is checking against ethernet header, whereas Linux expect IP header aligned. And ethernet ether size is 6*2+2=14, so aligning ethernet header make IP header unaligned.
