[PATCH v3 0/3] mac80211/ath11k: HE mesh support

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

 



Hi,

Some features of 802.11ax without central organizing (AP) STA can also be
used in mesh mode. The main goal is to get HE mesh working with ath11k.
For persons without ath11k compatible hw, hwsim can be used in the as basis
for further development of these features.


* v3

  - force ath11k PHY mode for meshpoint vif to HE mode to avoid hang of
    firmware when HE (or VHT on 2.4GHz) device tries to connect

* v2:

  - add of ath11k patch

* v1:

  - initial RFC


Kind regards,
        Sven
