[PATCH 5/5] iwlwifi: mvm: don't use SAR Geo if basic SAR is not used

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

 



From: Luca Coelho <luciano.coelho@xxxxxxxxx>

We can't use SAR Geo if basic SAR is not enabled, since the SAR Geo
tables define offsets in relation to the basic SAR table in use.

To fix this, make iwl_mvm_sar_init() return one in case WRDS is not
available, so we can skip reading WGDS entirely.

Fixes: a6bff3cb19b7 ("iwlwifi: mvm: add GEO_TX_POWER_LIMIT cmd for geographic tx power table")
