Hi,
At Jan 20, Sam Leffler posted a patch for enabeling packet injection with the
rate specified in the radiotap message. Did this ever make its way to the
release, or was it rejected.
I am investigating the feasibility of using such a function for train-wayside
communication where it is more important that all wayside radios that receive a
message forward it to the central. This use case does not comply with the
association-disassociation scheme, as this is one-to-one.

I was asked to remove a WARN_ON but haven't had time to re-spin the
patch. Feel free to grab it and resubmit...

I'm also using packet injection in a custom mesh routing protocol that
does not rely on the association scheme provided by wifi. At the moment
I'm using it with madwifi, but I'm very interested in testing it also
with ath9k and ath5k, so this patch would be very useful to me.
