[RFC] mac80211: add debugfs file for mic failure

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

 



The mic failure count will provide the number of mic failure that 
have happened without a countermeasure being started. Once the 
countermeasure is started, the counter will be reset to 0.
This count will be helpful when the consecutive 
mic failure occur at intervals greater than 60 seconds regularly(frequently).
