[PATCH 02/13] iwlwifi: mvm: do not trust NSSN for amsdu sub-frames

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

 



From: Sara Sharon <sara.sharon@xxxxxxxxx>

We cannot trust NSSN for AMSDU sub-frames that are not the
last.
The reason is that NSSN advances on the first sub-frame,
and may cause the reorder buffer to advance before all the
sub-frames arrive.
Example:
Reorder buffer contains SN 0 & 2.
We receive AMSDU with SN 1 and NSSN for first sub frame 3.
The result us that driver releases SN 0,1, 2.
When sub-frame 1 arrives - reorder buffer is already ahead and
it will be dropped.
If the last sub-frame is not on this queue - we will get frame
release notification with up to date NSSN.
