[PATCH] mac80211: Move crypto IV generation to after TXQ dequeue.

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

 



The FQ portion of the intermediate queues will reorder packets, which
means that crypto IV generation needs to happen after dequeue when they
are enabled, or the receiver will throw packets away when receiving
them.

This fixes the performance regression introduced by enabling softq in
ath9k.
