[PATCH 00/14] rtw88: add software TX queue support

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

 



From: Yan-Hsuan Chuang <yhchuang@xxxxxxxxxxx>

This adds support for software TX queue that is provided by
mac80211 stack. Also can take advantage of AMSDU, by letting
it to aggregate the MSDUs in the TX queue.

With software TX queue, driver can handle the rate control
mechanism, by set/check the current state of the TX queues.

If driver is going to use software TX queue, it is better to
also add ieee80211_ops::flush for better control of either
software/hardware queues. This can help mac80211 to flush
the queues whenever it wants to.

And TX queues should follow the EDCA params, add
ieee80211_ops::conf_tx to setup the parameters accordingly.

There's also some fixes for the driver. One can check in
the log to see what the fixes for. The most important fix
is ("rtw88: fix beaconing mode rsvd_page memory violation issue").
Because there's kernel memory violation that could generate
protection fault, when user wants to start beaconing modes
such as AP.
