[PATCH] [BUGFIX] EHT: Relax the EHT MCS/NSS length checking

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In practice if HE_PHYCAP_CHANNEL_WIDTH_SET_40MHZ_IN_2G is set
then we can stop the MCS/NSS length calculation, but continue
parsing to also handle cases that stations accidentally set it
also on 5GHz or 6GHz band.
