[PATCH 2/3] iwlwifi: mvm: start mac queues when deferred tx frames are purged

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

 



From: Avraham Stern <avraham.stern@xxxxxxxxx>

Under DQA, when tx is deferred because a queue needs to be allocated,
the mac queue for that TID is stopped until the new stream is added.
If at this point the station that this stream belongs to is removed,
all the deferred tx frames are purged, but the mac queue is not
restarted. As a result, all following tx on this queue will not be
transmitted.

Fix this by starting the relevant mac queues when the deferred tx
frames are purged.

Fixes: 24afba7690e4 ("iwlwifi: mvm: support bss dynamic alloc/dealloc of queues")
