During February 2026, Legale focused on improving monitor-mode capture reliability in the ath11k driver for OpenWrt, specifically within the DragonBluep/openwrt repository. Working in C and leveraging expertise in Linux kernel and driver development, Legale addressed a bug affecting radiotap metadata alignment with frame length on Qualcomm IPQ platforms. The solution involved correcting frame length handling in the monitor RX path, removing unnecessary FCS and tail manipulations, and implementing precise length correction in the delivery function. This targeted fix, validated across multiple devices, enhanced the accuracy of Wireshark parsing and streamlined diagnostics, demonstrating depth in low-level network programming and cross-device validation.
February 2026: Focused on stabilizing monitor-mode capture reliability in the ath11k driver for OpenWrt on Qualcomm IPQ platforms. Implemented a targeted fix to correct capture length, ensuring radiotap metadata aligns with frame length and eliminating manual trimming in captures. Cross-device validation on ipq8072/ipq6018 hardware (yuncore/ax880, yuncore/ax840, yuncore/fap650). Patch reduces diagnostic friction and improves monitoring tooling accuracy.
