Description
Upon testing the BCM43xx (4306 in my case) with packet injection i noticed that there was a problem with the DMA slots not being released (this has already been mentioned in the forums under "Tuning BCM43xx" i believe). When testing my packet injection i would frequently run across this problem, my solution to it was just to wait 5 sec and restart the packet injection attack (aireplay-ng -2 <options, iface, etc>). Why not incorporate a stop/restart method into the code say as a -f method? (since -r is used as the file). The default could be set to 0 for unlimited and after that it restarts upon x amount of seconds after a cool down of 5sec between stop/start. This way a user can "set it and forget it" instead of having to watch the console for restarting the app.
