rcu_head

RCU head used for freeing this struct

reorder_lock

serializes access to reorder buffer, see below.

reorder_buf

buffer to reorder incoming aggregated MPDUs

reorder_time

jiffies when skb was added

session_timer

check if peer keeps Tx-ing on the TID (by timeout value)

reorder_timer

releases expired frames from the reorder buffer.

last_rx

jiffies of last rx activity

head_seq_num

head sequence number in reordering buffer.

stored_mpdu_num

number of MPDUs in reordering buffer

ssn

Starting Sequence Number expected to be aggregated.

buf_size

buffer size for incoming A-MPDUs

timeout

reset timer value (in TUs).

dialog_token

dialog token for aggregation session

removed

this session is removed (but might have been found due to RCU)

This structure's lifetime is managed by RCU, assignments to the array holding it must hold the aggregation mutex.

The reorder_lock is used to protect the members of this struct, except for timeout, buf_size and dialog_token, which are constant across the lifetime of the struct (the dialog token being used only for debugging).
