[PATCH V3] mac80211: Implementation of SIOCSIWRATE

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

 



From: Mohamed Abbas <mabbas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The WEXT ioctl SIOCSIWRATE is not implemented in mac80211. This patch
adds the missing routine. It supports the 'auto' keyword, fixed rates,
and the combination of 'auto' and a fixed rate to select an upper bound.
