From 62bb2ac5cb6c2f813e151617525ec518e2d1c649 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Wed, 17 Feb 2010 21:27:26 +0100 Subject: mac80211: deprecate RX status noise The noise value as is won't be used, isn't filled by most drivers and doesn't really make a whole lot of sense on a per packet basis -- proper cfg80211 survey support in mac80211 will need to be different. Mark the struct member as deprecated so it will be removed from drivers. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
