[PATCH 1/3] wcn36xx: Set LINK_FAIL_TX_CNT non zero on wcn3620/wcn3660

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

 



The firmware parameter LINK_FAIL_TX_CNT maps to the prima configuration
file parameter gLinkFailTxCnt and is described as:

quote: " If within gLinkFailTimeout period(values is mentioned in msec) if
         FW doesn't receive acks for gLinkFailTxCnt number of packets, then
         link will be disconnected."

The downstream description sets a minimum value of 1000 a maximum value of
60000 and a default value of 6000, however it appears that unless we
actually set this value deliberately firmware defaults it to 0.

Setting this value to non-zero results in the firmware doing link
monitoring.

In conjunction with ieee80211_hw_set(wcn->hw, CONNECTION_MONITOR); this
change effects offload of link monitoring to the firmware.

Tested with:
'CNSS-PR-2-0-1-2-c1-74-130449-3' wcn3620
'CNSS-PR-2-0-1-2-c1-00083'       wcn3680
