Suppose one is doing heavy download (AP -> peer traffic), and there are lots of frames in the NIC's tx buffers (ath10k firmware, in this case). Then, peer sends a power-save pkt telling AP it is going off-channel or otherwise will be unavailable. What is the appropriate behaviour from the AP? Can the firmware just drop all those tx frames to make room to handle other stations? Maybe report ACK failure and hope the upper level stacks retransmit as appropriate? Or, is the host supposed to flush the peer's packets to clear out the frames? Or, is firmware somehow supposed to keep all the frames for when the peer comes back?
