RE: [PATCH] mac80211: Increase uapsd max SP frames number

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

 



The spec doesn't require unlimited to be really "unlimited" and the AP decides when to end the SP, so any value here is ok.
However for large traffic bursts increasing this value looks reasonable. Also looks like some certification tests expect more frames to be delivered during SP.
128 is still kind of arbitrary value
