First of all, it's currently not supported I believe, in general, since there's no parsing code. Obviously, parsing code can be changed, and I think there might even be patches floating around for that. However, not all hardware supports per-frame TX power control. Some might, most will not. Until fairly recently, there was also no API with drivers to allow setting TX power per frame. This changed with the addition of TX power control to rate control, of course. So I think similar to rate control the situation is that it could be done, but there are many corner cases where it won't work reliably. I'd apply clean patches that add the functionality while documenting the issues. johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
