Hi , One of our wireless embedded product is operating on Linux Kernel : 3.12.19. This product has a 802.11 a/b/g/n Full-size Mini PCIe Card EWM-W158F01E Which is based on atheros AR9592-AR1B Chipset. ath9k driver supports this chip set. One of the compliance testing requirement is : In the minimum transfer rate for power measurements, and at the maximum rate for the other measurements, with the transmitter operating with continuous transmission. I am looking for the test mode support in ath9k driver and user space utility to invoke the test mode. 1. Configuring the atheros 9k driver in CONFIG_ATH9K_TX99 test mode https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/ef6b19e40f525777a0052956bf7d9a1985f74993 as per the log message the supported kernel is from 3.14-rc1 Latest Kernel 3.12.70 also does not have support for TX99 mode. 2. User space utility to send the continuous tone Some of the references using a special tool called Atheros test tool for the user space utility. There is a reference to a windows based utility "Atheros Radio test tool". Some documents refer to linux based atheros test tool but they are based on wireless extensions. Searching for a similar utility did not yield any results. Any pointers are welcome. Thanks Senthil
