[RFC V3 2/2] ath10k: add tx hw 802.11 encapusaltion offloading support

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

 



From: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vthiagar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch adds support for ethernet rxtx mode to the driver. The feature
is enabled via a new module parameter. If enabled to driver will enable
the feature on a per vif basis if all other requirements were met.

Testing on a IPQ4019 based hardware shows a increase in TCP throughput
of ~20% when the feature is enabled.
