[PATCH 3.14] ath9k: fix ps-poll responses under a-mpdu sessions

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

 



When passing tx frames to the U-APSD queue for powersave poll responses,
the ath_atx_tid pointer needs to be passed to ath_tx_setup_buffer for
proper sequence number accounting.

This fixes high latency and connection stability issues with ath9k
running as AP and a few kinds of mobile phones as client, when PS-Poll
is heavily used
