[PATCHv4 0/2] configure dynack through mac80211/cfg80211 stack

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

 



Extend set_coverage_class API in order to enable ACK timeout estimation
algorithm (dynack) passing coverage_class equals to -1 to lower drivers.
Currently dynack is supported just by ath9k.
Fix set_coverage_class signature for p54, ath9k, ath9k_htc and ath5k drivers.

Changes since v3:
- squash driver patches and mac80211 one

Changes since v2:
- add set_coverage_class signature fix to patchset
- define NL80211_FEATURE_ACKTO_ESTIMATION to report driver dynack capability
- reject configuration if both NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_COVERAGE_CLASS and
  NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_DYN_ACK are given

Changes since v1:
- extend set_coverage_class signature insted of define enable_dynack API

  cfg80211: enable dynack through nl80211
  mac80211: extend set_coverage_class signature
