[PATCH 07/11] brcmfmac: Add beamforming support.

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

 



From: Hante Meuleman <meuleman@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Some devices support beamforming. This patch enables tx beamforming
if supported and reports beamforming capabilities per channel if
supported.
