Please share the test results and numbers you've run to help others
thoughts.
I haven't run any tests with ath10k PCIe, but Yibo Zhao had noticed a
10%
degradation without this patch.
Yibo:
Can you provide iperf results etc. that shows the performance gain?
My tests are based on ixchariot with cabled setup(two-core AP system).
WDS mode--10% deviation:
With previous change: UDP DL-1246 Mbps
W/O previous change: UDP DL-987 Mbps
Normal mode:
With previous change: UDP DL-1380 Mbps
W/O previous change: UDP DL-1310 Mbps
Also attached the aqm status.

we see no difference between tx-packets and new-flows.

new-flows are roughly one-third of the total tx-packets.
