[PATCHv9 2/6] nl80211: Add support to configure TID specific retry configuration

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

 



From: Tamizh chelvam <tamizhr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch adds support to configure per TID retry configuration
through the NL80211_TID_CONFIG_ATTR_RETRY_SHORT and
NL80211_TID_CONFIG_ATTR_RETRY_LONG attributes. This TID specific
retry configuration will have more precedence than phy level
configuration.
