[PATCH v2] rtw88: raise LPS threshold to 50, for less power consumption

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

 



From: Yan-Hsuan Chuang <yhchuang@xxxxxxxxxxx>

The LPS threshold was set to 2, means driver will leave LPS
mode if there is more than 2 frames TX/RX for every 2 seconds.
This makes driver enter/leave LPS frequently even if we just
"ping -i1" to the others.

Apparently we do not want to leave LPS mode if there is only
some background traffics or web surfing. By experiment, set
this to 50 is a more reasonable value to lower the over all
power consumption.

v1 -> v2
  * this was originally ("https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11211881/";)
  * but seems module parameter is not a good idea here, just change
    the default value to 50 for a general solution
