From b3bd89ce956c220fe52a003103f14af48f695fda Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jouni Malinen Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2009 13:42:01 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: Add module parameter to disable hardware crypto nohwcrypt=1 module parameter can now be used to disable hardware crypto in ath9k. While the hardware acceleration handles most cases, it may be useful to be able to force mac80211 software implementation to be used for some tests, e.g., with virtual interface combinations that may not yet be supported in the key cache configuration. In addition, this allows management frame protection to be tested with older hardware revisions. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen Signed-off-by: John W.
