[RFC v2 6/6] mac80211: minstrel_ht - add debugfs entry per sta for fixed tx-power

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

 



Create a new debugfs entry called 'rc_fixed_txpower_idx' in debugfs dir
for each station. By writing a positive static tx-power idx into this
file, minstrel_ht applies this tx-power idx to each packet or each mrr
stage, depending on what the hardware supports. By writing (u32)-1 to
the file, minstrel will return to automatic mode which currently just
passes -1 as tx-power idx, indicating that the driver should use a
default.
The debugfs entry will only be created if either tpc per packet or per
mrr is supported.
