802.11 MAC fails

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

 



Hiya

Does anyone familiar with the 802.11 mac code know what the kernel currently does with frames which fail to send after reaching the re-transmit limit?

I would imagine that either the mac layer reports the failure to the upper layer (e.g. TCP), or the failure is simply swallowed and upper layers should rely on ACK timeouts if necessary.

Many thanks
