[PATCH] cfg80211: add local BSS receive time to survey information

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

 



This is useful for checking how much airtime is being used up by other
transmissions on the channel, e.g. by calculating (time_rx - time_bss_rx)
or (time_busy - time_bss_rx - time_tx)
