[PATCH] mac80211: Minstrel HT: Handle all SMPS states of the peer STA.

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

 



From: Chaitanya Tata <chaitanya.mgit@xxxxxxxxx>

In case of Dynamic SMPS enable RTS/CTS for all rates.
In case of Static SMPS mark the Nss > 1 rates as not supported.
