QCA is gathering a lot of patches (a00-*) at https://source.codeaurora.org/quic/qsdk/oss/system/feeds/wlan-open/tree/mac80211/patches?h=coconut which are often not upstreamed. The patch a00-0075-ath10k-Add-support-to-parse-per-station-tx-stats-for.patch is the one which is receiving the TX statistics stuff from 10.2. I had a discussion with some QCA employee (or actually OpenMesh had it and I joined the discussion rather late) where the QCA employee was very confident that ath10k supports ATH10K_PKTLOG_PEER_STATS (not the fw_stats stuff in debugfs). But I couldn't find the code for that in ath10k. Only after some guesswork, I was able to find the patch mentioned above and was able to test it (after hacking the smart antenna patch dependency away). Kind regards, Sven
