But to some degree, having problems in transmitting frames because of driver issues is an approximation of a noisy environment. However, we can't do so much in this specific case. > Just an idea for your hack: wouldn't it be easier if we had all these > parameters accessible via debugfs instead of module parameters?

But this is racy, and you should implement some locking, and I just didn't want to bother about this. It's not racy, if you make sure that the interface is down while you write parameters. Of course, if we want these parameters to get into mac80211, proper locking should be implemented. -- Ciao Stefano - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
