I guess that the flag that is more confusing is OFDM_HT. since 11n supports (theoretically...) n streams of data, using flags like SISO / MIMO / MIMO_3_ANT / MIMO_... seemed the wrong way. in stead, once you know OFDM_HT is up, a check to antenna_sel_tx will determine the Tx expected method. It may be good to add this to the file's documentation. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
