[PATCH 19/23] wilc1000: don't tell the chip to go to sleep while copying tx packets

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

 



Putting the chip to sleep and waking it up again is relatively slow,
so there is no point to put the chip to sleep for the short time it
takes to copy a couple of packets.
