[PATCH] mt7601u: don't warn about devices without per-rate power table

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

 



From: Jakub Kicinski <kubakici@xxxxx>

We expect EEPROM per-rate power table to be filled with
s6 values and warn user if values are invalid.  However,
there appear to be devices which don't have this section
of EEPROM initialized.  In such case we should ignore
the values and leave the driver power tables set to zero.

Note that vendor driver doesn't care about this case but
mt76x2 skips 0xff per value.  We take mt76x2's approach.

Kalle, I tried my best with patchwork settings but if my name still
contains a question mark on this submission you can go ahead and
apply automatically anyway.  The patch itself does not have any hairy
characters and Johannes said on IRC yesterday that pwclient ends up
doing the right thing in this case.
