[PATCH 2/7] mac80211: add get_expected_throughput API

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

 



From: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Add get_expected_throughput() API to mac80211 so that each
driver can implement its own version based on the RC
algorithm they are using (might be using an HW RC algo).
The API returns a value expressed in Mbps/100.
This unit has been chosen because it is the same of the
throughput returned by MinstrelHT.
