Clarifying rtl8188ee's channel wifi changing code

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

 



Hi all,

I am having a bit of trouble understanding the rtl8188ee source,
specifically how its switch_channel function (rtl88e_phy_sw_chnl) works. I
gather that this function calls rtl88ee_phy_sw_chnl_callback, which in turn
calls _rtl88_phy_sw_chnl_step_by_step (
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/rtl8188ee/phy.c#L1253
).

This is where I get lost. Where is the 'channel' variable used, other than
to change the TX power? I presume it has something to do with case
CMDID_RF_WRITEREG, but I am not certain.

Please explain what is going on. Thank you!
