I guess it should also set the default for new stations when the peer is not given? At least that's how mac80211 would behave now, afaict. The question is how that interacts with having enough space - are you sure this is a concern? > * @NL80211_CMD_SET_NOACK_MAP: sets a bitmap for the individual TIDs whether > - * No Acknowledgement Policy should be applied. > + * No Acknowledgement Policy should be applied. %NL80211_ATTR_MAC is used > + * to apply No Acknowledgement policy for a particular connected station. > + * Station specific NoAck policy configuration is valid only for STA's > + * current connection, i.e. the configuration will not be used when the > + * station connects back after disconnection/roaming. > + * When user-space does not include %NL80211_ATTR_MAC, the No > + * Acknowledgement Policy setting should be treated as per-netdev > + * configuration. Here you describe different semantics - i.e. you didn't describe the "previous per-station settings are kept" part. I'm not sure that part makes much sense anyhow? johannes
