Balaji, please reply to Bob's questions. I missed this thread while
applying v5, sorry Bob.
Just to follow-up, I ran more experiments since writing the above
email and it didn't look like it was doing max() either -- at least
on my hardware/firmware combo it had no effect at all that I could
tell.
For QCA9984 allowed tx power range values from 6 to 23,
Same info mentioned in : https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10968517/
I did verify that the wmi update went through to the firmware.
I can't remember now, but I may have been testing mesh mode in case
that makes a difference.
We gave fix for tx power configuration in firmware 10.4-3.9.0.2-00046 .
Can you try with that ?
Regards,
Balaji.
