[PATCH v2 1/4] dt-bindings: net: wireless: mt76: add power-limits node

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

 



This subnode can be used to set per-rate tx power limits either per
country code / regdomain or globally.
These limits are typically provided by the device manufacturers and are
used to limit sideband emissions and stay within regulatory limits

v2:
 - merge 802.11ax rate changes from Shayne's patch
 - document txs-delta property

+- country: One or more country codes, as used by the cfg80211 regdomain code
+- regdomain: "FCC", "ETSI" or "JP"

+If neither country, nor regdomain is specified, the power limits node is used

+- channels: pairs of first and last channel number
+- cck: 4 half-dBm per-rate power limit values
+- ofdm: 8 half-dBm per-rate power limit values
+- mcs:
+	sets of per-rate power limit values for 802.11n/802.11ac rates for
+	multiple channel bandwidth settings.
+	Each set starts with the number of channel bandwidth settings for
+	which the rate set applies, followed by either 8 (MT7603/MT7628) or
+	10 (all other chips) power limit values.
+	The order of the channel bandwidth settings is: 20, 40, 80, 160 MHz.
+- ru:
+	sets of per-rate power limit values for 802.11ax rates for multiple
+	channel bandwidth or resource unit settings.
+	Each set starts with the number of channel bandwidth or resource unit
+	settings for which the rate set applies, followed by 12 power limit
+	values. The order of the channel resource unit settings is:
+	RU26, RU52, RU106, RU242/SU20, RU484/SU40, RU996/SU80, RU2x996/SU160.
+- txs-delta: half-dBm power delta for different numbers of antennas (1, 2, ...)
