[PATCH v2] mac80211: give burst time in txop rather than 0.1msec units

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

 



This changes mac80211 to pass the burst time to conf_tx in txop
units rather than 0.1msec units. 0.1msec units are only required
by atheros hardware (according to current driver support), all
other drivers do other calculations or require the txop value.
Therefore, it results in fewer calculations and more precision
if we just pass the txop value through to the driver.

Michael (Wu), the p54 driver has some values that differ from
the 802.11 spec, is that intentional?

Changes since v1:
 * Fix p54 +1 that was for integer division only, thanks goes to
   Tomas for pointing that out.
 * CC linux-wireless
