Don't those drivers that announce supporting max_altrates = 1 have to update the status for alternative rates too? Also, should max_altrate_tries == 0 indicate that that is fixed? But b43 with the default firmware actually _is_ capable of changing the number of retries (default to 3/3 or 3/4 I think), just not per frame. Should we have that in the API too? Another thing, it seems you didn't update those drivers to report the rates and number of tries, at least for b43 that is actually possible. Also, can you explain the use of IEEE80211_TX_CTL_RATE_CTRL_PROBE? johannes
