Hi,

does anybody know what's the deal with patch http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/62072/ ?
On ath5k hardware (WGT634U running OpenWRT Kamikaze with current compat-wireless) this patch is still needed to avoid these headroom too small messages on WDS links (4addr frame format).

Thanks,
Jochen

It is rejected and will not be applied.

If ath5k also uses the headroom for alignment then it needs to reserve more headroom.
